NEW: It was a bad one for Toronto FC tonight, but Josh Sargent won't hurt when he joins the group soon.
As we saw with Werner's debut assist tonight in San Jose, stars can make an immediate impact.

Toronto need Sargent to get rolling asap.

Toronto FC finally secured #USMNT striker Josh Sargent on a deal that could end up breaking the record for the most expensive transfer in MLS history.
He's a good player, but it's a gamble at that price — could be pricier than Son Heung-min.

They fended off offers from Inter Miami and Brazil this offseason and now secure the future of one of the best forwards in MLS
Tidy business there.

Some songs will be released starting in April. Full list of performers announced so far on the album, produced by Boi-1da here.
An update on Promise David’s status after a hip injury saw him stretchered off.
TSN reports he’ll need surgery on a ruptured hip tendon and the rehab will be 3-5 months.
That puts his World Cup in potential risk, being just over 3 months away.

Thought this hit the nail on the head.
The USA gold medal wins were unifying and non-political, a rare experience in the modern age, until they weren't. It's unfortunate some Americans feel uncomfortable being proud of their country's win now.

These Milan Cortina Olympics come to a close in Verona. A mixed one for Canada to be sure.
Thanks for following along with me these and for keeping up with coverage on @SInow and @DailyFaceoff.
The Olympics bring this country together better than anything else.
The Milan Cortina 2026 Olympics will conclude in Verona at the Arena di Verona, an ancient Roman amphitheatre and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Quite the scene for the flame to die as we look ahead to French Alps 2030.
These Games certainly reinvigorated the Winter Olympics.
Canada ends Milan Cortina 2026 with 21 medals, including five gold.
Canada's lowest Winter Games total since Salt Lake City 2002 when it won 17 medals.
Lots to takeaway from these Games when it comes to Canada's sporting system.
The last look of Sidney Crosby in a Team Canada jersey?
Maybe a few more World Championships, maybe even French Alps 2030 at 42, but who knows.
2x Olympic champion and a silver medals for the legend.
American gold in OT in both men’s and women’s hockey at Milan Cortina 2026.
The first time the USA has won both tournaments at the same Games.
So is Tate McRae happy or sad with this one?

Good for American hockey — incredible it took so long to do it.
Terrible for the amount of unnecessary societal and political outfall this is going to bring in the next while.
🇨🇦🥈Canada takes silver.🥈🇨🇦
An incredible hockey game comes to an end and Team USA score the overtime winner to win their first Olympic gold since 1980.
Many missed chances Canada will not forget — and the Crosby “what if.”
Binnington. Wow.

Here we go!
Gold medal OT once again.
Millions watching across North America and the worst.
Overtime picks?
Which team? Who scores the golden goal?
It’s going to be wild at 3v3, the first time with NHL players in the gold medal game at the Olympics.
