Rarely has a playoff hockey team been as hard to figure out as this year's edition of the Edmonton Oilers. Through four games, the Los Angeles Kings have outscored them in the first and second periods to the tune of 14-6. Bad!But the Oilers have also won the cumulative third periods 11-5. Great! (And they have the only goal scored in overtime.)Should Edmonton be lauded for showing the resilience to keep roaring back in games in which it's being comprehensively beaten?

Of course it was never going to be that easy. The Toronto Maple Leafs don't do series sweeps. They don't even do almost-sweeps. While grinding through long series has been a hallmark of the Core Four era, with all of them going to a disappointing final game other than the blip of 2023, the trend goes back much further. The last time the Leafs won a seven-game series in fewer than six games was in 1999, when they beat the Buffalo Sabres in five games in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

In no other week have kickers missed as many field goals as they did in Week 13. Dustin Hopkins' first-quarter misfire for the Cleveland Browns on Monday night was the 24th miss. The previous low-water mark was back in Week 12 of 2001 when NFL kickers missed 23.

Imagine if three of the highest annual salaries in the NBA went to Cam Thomas, LaMelo Ball, and Trae Young. They're fine players who can fill a stat sheet, sure, but they're not on anyone's list of best players in the league. It would be odd if they carried the biggest tickets, yes? But that kind of incongruity is normal business in the NFL. Three of the four highest-paid players in the league by annual salary are Dak Prescott, Trevor Lawrence, and Jordan Love. No. 5 is Tua Tagovailoa.
