Regarding the latest on the canceled WWE merger trial.
@BrandonThurston of @wrestlenomics was told by Court Administrator Tamara Burton, “At the parties’ request, the trial is canceled. The parties have advised the court that they will present the settlement for approval in due course.”
This game has included:
* Two VGK goals taken off the board by coach's challenges
* Mitch Marner natural hat trick, fastest in SCF history
* Stopped Marner penalty shot that would have made it 5-0 in 3rd period
* Three Carolina goals in 39 seconds, fastest in SCF history
Rams and Browns started talking about the Myles Garrett trade since draft time. One of the reasons they selected Ty Simpson in first round was because they knew they’d be without AT LEAST next years one. Rams were hoping to make it all draft capital and fought to not include Verse in deal to the end but he was a necessary Browns. @NFLonFOX
After years of knocking on the door, the Carolina Hurricanes have smashed through it to reach the Stanley Cup Final.
An unfathomable 12-1 run through the playoffs sets up a meeting with Vegas starting Tuesday night.
NEW: Vince McMahon & Nick Khan sanctioned in WWE merger lawsuit, heightening their burden to prevail at trial.
Ari Emanuel's offer to indemnify McMahon and help with federal investigations presumed by judge to have influenced TKO merger.

In a new ruling in the WWE merger lawsuit, Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster found that Vince McMahon and Nick Khan destroyed evidence. As a consequence, the court will treat five damaging facts as presumptively true when the case goes to trial next month.
Vince, Khan, as well as three others — Paul Levesque, Stephanie McMahon and Brad Blum — all used Signal’s auto-delete function, which wiped out messages they had a legal duty to preserve.
The ruling is a significant setback for the defendants, who are Vince, Khan, Levesque, George Barrios, and Michelle Wilson. The case will now be harder, specifically for McMahon and Khan to prevail against the shareholder plaintiffs’ allegations.

Just how improbable is this run for Vegas?
-The Golden Knights are the first Stanley Cup Final team with under 40 wins in an 80+ game season since the 2002 Hurricanes
-Their 95 points in the regular season would not have been enough to make the playoffs in the East.
-They were +2500 to sweep the Avs 😮
The Vegas Golden Knights are one win away from their third trip to the Stanley Cup Final in nine years.
It's going to take something historic from the Colorado Avalanche to keep it from happening.
The NHL has imposed significant punishments on the Vegas Golden Knights for "flagrant violations" of the league's playoff media regulations: Vegas forfeits its 2026 second-round draft pick and head coach John Tortorella is fined $100,000.
The club had been warned previously
In 1984-85, it was usually Mario Lemieux to Warren Young...This time it was the other way around as 40-goal man Young sets up fellow rookie #66 for the eventual game-winner over Edmonton, Jan. 12, 1985. #LetsGoPens
