Rangers zeroing in on Mark Giordano in potential Kraken trade twist
NY Post
The Kraken have been released — and they may already have their tentacles on bigger deals.
During Seattle’s welcome-to-the-league expansion draft premiere Wednesday night, the NHL’s 32nd franchise unveiled its chosen player from each of 30 teams, with the exclusion of the exempt Vegas Golden Knights. The Rangers’ Colin Blackwell was one of those taken, but there’s a possibility his selection could swirl into a more significant move. The Blueshirts had discussions about veteran defenseman Mark Giordano, who was exposed by the Flames and then taken by the Kraken in the expansion draft. Seattle, The Post has learned, has interest in Rangers forward Ryan Strome and could be willing to retain a portion of Giordano’s salary to strike a deal.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
