The Kraken have acquired 23-year-old forward Mackie Samoskevich in a trade with the Panthers that will send the No. 25 pick in Friday's NHL draft back to Florida.

The leader heading into the final round of US Open at Shinnecock Hills on Long Island has bemoaned what he believes has been a lackluster crowd.

Lamine Yamal needed just 10 minutes of his first start at a World Cup to get his first goal on soccer's biggest stage.The 18-year-old forward slid in at the far post to touch home a low cross and put Spain 1-0 up against Saudi Arabia in Atlanta on Sunday.Yamal missed the end of Barcelona's season with a hamstring injury and was used as a second-half substitute when Spain was held to a surprise 0-0 draw with Cape Verde in its opening match.The question of whether Yamal would start the next game was the biggest talking point ahead of the Saudi Arabia match and coach Luis de la Fuente gave Spain fans what they wanted. That move quickly paid off with Yamal's early strike.The teenager is already considered one the world's top players and helped Spain win the European Championship in 2024 despite being just 16 years old when the tournament started.He is tipped to take over from Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the sport's biggest star.On Sunday, Yamal raced away in celebration before dropping to his knees, praying and kissing the turf at Atlanta Stadium.His goal was the first of a flurry of first-half goals from Spain, one of the pre-tournament favorites.Mikel Oyarzabal, who was criticized for not touching the ball at all in the first 30 minutes of Spain's draw with Cape Verde, not only provided the assist for Yamal, but scored two more goals in the 21st and 24th.Spain's lead was so dominant by halftime that Yamal and Oyarzabal were both taken off before the start of the second half. ___James Robson is at https://x.com/jamesalanrobson___AP World Cup: https://apnews.com/fifa-world-cup

Rory McIlroy's US Open dreams have all but evaporated following a frustrating third round at the championship.The world number two posted a disappointing two-over-par 73, which saw him tumble down the standings to a share of 17th place heading into Sunday's final round.It's a bitter pill to swallow for the Northern Irishman, who actually showed promise on the front nine and briefly looked like he might mount a challenge.But everything fell apart after the turn, with a string of bogeys putting paid to any realistic chance of catching Wyndham Clark.The American leader now holds a commanding six-shot cushion, making McIlroy's task virtually impossible.His irons and wedges proved to be his undoing throughout the round, with McIlroy failing to find a single green in regulation across his opening five holes.The troubles were painfully evident at the third, where a wayward wedge shot found the greenside bunker and prompted some choice words from the four-time major winner."Oh just go home, Rory. F** hell!" he muttered to himself after watching the ball land in the sand.He escaped the bunker but then three-putted, adding another bogey to his card after already dropping a shot on the previous hole."Just go home, Rory" Rory McIlroy was NOT happy after this approach shot pic.twitter.com/ganjaZ4t4r Sky Sports Golf (@SkySportsGolf) June 21, 2026 The emotional strain was written all over McIlroy's face as the round progressed.After dropping his third shot of the day at the fifth, the Northern Irishman was spotted with his head buried in his hands a picture of total dejection.That bogey came after he missed the fairway left and then overshot the green with his approach on the par-five.He gave himself a chance to salvage par but couldn't convert an eight-foot putt.It was, quite frankly, brutal to watch.McIlroy now faces an uphill battle just to secure a respectable finish on Sunday.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
