Kyle Connor scored back-to-back goals 34 seconds apart in the third period and delivered the only goal in a shootout as the Jets rallied behind goalie Connor Hellebuyck to beat the Boston Bruins 4-3 on Tuesday night. Hellebuyck stopped 36 shots, shutting out the Bruins in the five-minute overtime and all three rounds of the tiebreaker. “I had a couple lucky ones tonight. I will say that,” said Hellebuyck, who stopped Brad Marchand on Boston’s final chance in the shootout....

Conor McGregor looks back on 2019 and reveals his motive for 2020 While recently interacting with ESPN’s Ariel Helwani, former two-division UFC World Champion Conor McGregor was asked about his 2019, during which the Irishman was completely inactive from Octagon competition, as he stated that the past year was a learning year and McGregor figuring out himself and his situation. McGregor, who is all set for a grand return to the Octagon in the first pay-per-view of the year and the decade at UFC 246, further claimed that 2020 will be the perfect year of vision for ‘The Notorious One’....

However, he also refused to make further comments on the situation. In an interview with ESPN’s Ariel Helwani, he made his approach towards the allegations quite clear and spoke about the frame of mind he is currently in. Conor McGregor: Time will tell all In March last year, McGregor’s name came up in a report on The New York Times which said he was under investigation in his home country Ireland for sexual assault charges....

Prior to his return, he sat down in a heart-to-heart interview with Ariel Helwani. He talked about the possibility of a fight with Manny Pacquiao in a boxing match. Helwani talked about the fight and McGregor made a surprising revelation that there had been efforts for a long time to fight Pacquiao. McGregor said that he wanted to get a boxing world title. When Helwani suggested that would mean that McGregor would be fighting in a lot of boxing matches, McGregor laughed and said that was not the case, meaning that a prospective boxing title match between himself and Pacquiao might be something that is being negotiated....

In these last hours before the runoff for the U.S. Senate seats in Georgia, I have only one message: vote as if America depends on it—because it does. Georgia is about to hold the most consequential runoff election in American history. If Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler win, the Republican majority in the Senate will be empowered to moderate the Biden-Harris administration. It will be able to stop virtually every radical appointment and proposal for legislation....

Several members of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s conservative bloc on Sunday said the measures should be implemented to ramp up the nation’s relatively low vaccination rate of just 68 percent, according to Reuters. “We’ve reached a point at which we must clearly say that we need de facto compulsory vaccination and a lockdown for the unvaccinated,” Tilman Kuban, head of the youth wing of Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), wrote in Die Welt newspaper....

A feisty 2-2 draw featuring nine yellow cards in May ended Tottenham’s title hopes after they had led 2-0 at halftime, bringing fines for both clubs for failing to control their players. “Our attitude and behaviour must be perfect,” said Conte, who has occasionally sparked controversy with his own antics on the touchline. “Every manager has a different attitude during the game but it’s important to respect opponents and fans,” he told a news conference on Friday....

This is especially relevant in the current state of console affairs, with the new Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 still extremely hard to find at retail. Many players will not have the chance to play the newest game on the latest hardware for quite some time, so the ability to play a new game on the console they already own is a huge positive.

The game was severely marred by fights, brawls, angry exchanges and cards as Espanyol saw two of their men sent off amidst the tense atmosphere. Barcelona ace Luis Suarez was later handed a two-match suspension after inciting a fight in the tunnel at half-time. Naturally, the tensions are still simmering over the Derbi Barceloni and the managers of both sides, Constantin Galca and Luis Enrique, have called for calming the waters ahead of their third encounter in 11 days....

The clash between River and Boca at the Monumental looked to go ahead as late as two and a half hours after the original kick-off time, before CONMEBOL finally opted to reschedule amid widespread confusion and conflicting reports. Tensions have been high around the Argentine capital Buenos Aires for weeks since it was confirmed that the two arch-rivals would meet in a two-legged decider. Many, then, were relieved when the opening clash, a 2-2 draw in Boca’s Bombonera, passed off relatively without incident, despite a 24-hour delay due to rain....

Ecuador international Juan Cazares scored twice as Mineiro routed Godoy Cruz 4-1 in Belo Horizonte on Tuesday. Top spot in Group 6 was up for grabs on matchday six in the Brazilian city, with Mineiro and Godoy Cruz already assured of a place in the last 16. And Mineiro pipped their Argentinean visitors to the summit thanks to Cazares’ first-half double, while former Brazil internationals Elias and Fred were on target at Estadio Raimundo Sampaio....

Currently, the large majority of the United States is powered by privately-owned energy companies that rely mostly on fossil fuels to power their networks. Democrats Bush and Bowman urged Congress to move away from this “problematic structure of investor-owned utilities” because it prioritizes shareholder profits over the environment and all communities’ access to electricity, which they say should be thought of as a basic “human right.” “Our country must transform its power system to be just, equitable, anti-racist, and climate- and disaster-resilient,” said Congresswoman Cori Bush in a press release....

Gylfi Sigurdsson gave Swansea the lead from the penalty spot in the first half but Seamus Coleman headed Everton level in the 89th minute to leave Bradley’s side rooted to the bottom of the table on six points from 12 games. “We were all a little disappointed after the game because we felt like we should have won,” Cork told the club’s website. (www.swansea city.net) “We had a good first half and in the second half it was always going to be difficult as the away side....

Germany’s second tier will also be back this weekend....

A spike in COVID-19 cases in Leicester led to the government extending the restrictions on the city on Monday. The measures will last for at least two weeks and apply to the city centre and a number of suburbs. The Foxes, however, have confirmed their three remaining home fixtures – against Crystal Palace, Sheffield United and Manchester United – will go ahead as planned. “The club has consulted with local authorities, its Safety Advisory Group and the Premier League, following Monday night’s government announcement relative to coronavirus measures in Leicester,” a statement read....

We all have the friend with the terrible girlfriend. Some of these girls are complete nags. Some know exactly how to ruin a good party. Others can’t seem to steer clear of a giant turtle-dragon, which then forces your buddy to venture through strange worlds while eating things they are allergic to (hence the growth and swelling) just so they can save their girl for the fifth time that month....
