The Calgary Stampeders have been one of the better teams in the CFL over the past couple of seasons but they still have a lot of work to do as demonstrated by their second straight early departure from the playoffs.
The NHL and NBA are really working in tandem these days. They concluded their seasons just days apart last week and, now, they’ll have their drafts days apart. The NHL Entry Draft goes this Friday night.

NHL news: Jaromir Jagr could return to Penguins
A couple of exciting reunions could be on the horizon for the 2011-12 NHL season.
NBA news: Magic will not trade Dwight Howard
It’s fun to speculate on wild trade rumors involving 2012 free agent Dwight Howard but the Orlando Magic insist that they will not trade their superstar center. 
Howard has indicated he’s open to rejoining the team but that he wants to be surrounded with better players and that he’d like to be involved in personnel decisions.
Cavs to grab Irving at No. 1
Not that it’s a big surprise, but it’s almost official now that the Cleveland Cavaliers will take Duke point guard Kyrie Irving at first overall in this week’s NBA draft.
That means they’ll let Arizona forward Derrick Williams fall to Minnesota at No. 2.
Suns to buy out Vince Carter
Vince Carter’s star sure has fallen a long way. The former Rookie of the Year has averaged 22.2 points with Toronto, New Jersey, Orlando and Phoenix since starting his career in 1999. But he’s fallen out of favor to the point that he’s expendable in the desert.
The Suns plan to decline the $18-million option on Vince’s contract and buy him out for $4 million.
Carter is expected to attract interest from contending teams in need of a bench scorer. [soliloquy id=”82219″]

MLB news: Albert Pujols out with fractured forearm
The St. Louis Cardinals feared the worst when Albert Pujols injured his arm in a collision with Kansas City’s Wilson Betemit on Sunday.
As the season nears its halfway mark, the standings – and the power rankings – look less and less surprising and more and more like we thought they’d look before the season started.
Long live Jim Barker. The 2010 Coach of the Year was the single biggest reason for the Toronto Argonauts’ return to relevance last season. Sure, Toronto only went 9-9 and lost seven of its final 11 regular-season games, but the team won seven games in 2008 and 2009 combined.
The Toronto Blue Jays continue their three game series with the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field on Tuesday night in what will be the fourth of a nine-game interleague road trip. Game time is set for 7:35 p.m. and it will be broadcast nationally on the MLB Network.
The New York Yankees are heating up at the right time. The Boston Red Sox are on fire and they thumped the Bronx Bombers over and over last week to gain the American League East lead, so the Yankees’ 6-1 run since then is well-timed.
Preview: For the past few weeks, pit strategy and fuel mileage have been taking center stage in the Cup Series and that might be the case again this weekend at Michigan, where fuel mileage often comes into play as the race winds down.
The Phillies have the best record in the Majors, not surprising with their stacked pitching staff, but they will be tested in this game facing last year’s Cy Young winner Felix Hernandez.
With the Tigers streaking this month they have taken over the lead in the AL Central and they visit the Mile High City in an interleague match up with the Rockies, who has beat Detroit in 7 of their last 8 games facing them.
The Toronto Blue Jays are more or less where we thought they’d be at this point of the season, not truly contending in the American League East but remaining a competitive pest for the juggernauts.
NBA news: Blazers waiting on Oden offer
There’s no guarantee that the Portland Trail Blazers will keep oft-injured former first-round pick Greg Oden on board next season.
