#5 Golden Knights owner shuts down trade rumors
Believe it or not, some sports analysts were predicting that the Las Vegas Aces were willing to part with their leading scorer, Max Pacioretty, to really make a run at the Stanley Cup this season. While the rumor didn t mention Pacioretty specifically, it claimed that every single member of the roster was on the trading block if it meant a trade that got them closer to a title.
We re not shopping Patches,” Las Vegas Golden Knights owner Bill Foley said when asked about a possible Pacioretty trade. “We do have cap issues, and so some of those things have to be resolved as we go forward, we started getting into the season. But he definitely is not being shopped.”
#4 Marshawn Lynch coming back to the Raiders?
Former Super Bowl-winning running back, Marshawn Lynch was recently asked by Conan O Brien if he would return to the game of football, and his answer was surprising. Of course, the answer was yes, he would, but only on one condition. The team he went to had to be a super Bowl contender.
Now, there are no rumors of this happening, but silverandblackprid.com did a poll this week asking fans if they want to see Lynch return to Raider Nation. Interestingly enough, 58% of respondents said no, which could be because they believe Josh Jacobs is doing good enough on his own.
#3 Adam Gase upset over Raiders win
It s no secret that it’s a tough time to be a Raiders fan, especially with the team on the cuff of missing the playoffs, but at least they can take comfort in knowing the Jets are still upset about last week. That s right! Jet s case, Adam Gase, talked to ESPN reporters earlier in the week and admitted to still being sour over the loss to the Raiders.
“At the start of my career, I heard that for seven years: You have 24 hours to get over it,” Gase told reporters. “I think the only time I’ve ever been involved in a loss like this was to end a playoff game, so I could be pissed as long as I wanted to because nobody cares. It’s tough. It’s tough. ”
The loss resulted in Greg Williams’ firing, who decided to blitz the Raiders offense and allowed Derek Carr to fire a 48-yard missile to Henry Ruggs III in the endzone. The play call was a controversial one due to the risk, and Gase wanted to call a time out so the team could talk over the plan.
