BOYS HOCKEY

Bemidji at Duluth East. Game Notes: The Class 2A/No. 14-ranked Greyhounds are 0-3, including overtime losses at 2A/No. 12 White Bear Lake, 4-3, and Tuesday at home against 2A/No. 15 Grand Rapids, 2-1. Duluth East will also visit 2A/No. 4 Wayzata at 2:30 p.m. Saturday, so a Greyhounds' victory tonight against the Lumberjacks could be important to avoid an 0-5 start.

Class 2A/No. 14 Grand Rapids at Duluth Marshall. Game Notes: The Thunderhawks (2-0) are heavy favorites against the Hilltoppers (1-0), who feature only four seniors.

Howie: Will C.J. Ham retire after this season?

Ham will show up somewhere that needs someone dependable, respected, and comfortable doing the hard work without applause. Which, if we’re being honest, means he’ll still fit right in around here.

Howie: Hughes trade, DECC to host World Junior Championship exhibitions

This is a bet that Hughes ages cleanly, that his body cooperates, that the cap continues to rise, and that the surrounding cast can be managed without suffocation. It’s a bet that Minnesota can finally pull off the superstar contract that doesn’t end in regret.

Howie: The library isn’t the story. It never was.

This time, the leverage isn’t casino revenue. It’s downtown frustration — visible poverty, safety complaints, business dissatisfaction and the persistent sense that downtown Duluth has not lived up to decades of promises.

Howie: Arena Football One releases 2026 master schedule

Twelve games per team. A defined start in April. A defined finish in July. Balanced home-and-away slates. Built-in byes. Repeat matchups that suggest geography matters again. It reads less like a marketing flyer and more like an operating plan.
