Alex Ovechkin has a broken left fibula and is expected to be out four to six weeks, an injury that pauses the Washington Capitals superstar captain’s pursuit of Wayne Gretzky’s NHL career goals record. The Capitals updated Ovechkin’s status Thursday after he was evaluated by team doctors upon returning from a three-game trip. The 39-year-old broke the leg in a shin-on-shin collision Monday night with Utah’s Jack McBain, and some of his closest teammates knew it was not good news even before Ovechkin was listed as week to week and placed on injured reserve. “Everyone’s bummed out,” said winger Tom Wilson, who has played with Ovechkin since 2013. “We were sitting there saying: ‘This is weird. Like, it’s unbelievable that he’s actually hurt.’ It’s one of those things where like, he’s going to miss games? I’ve been around a long time, and it’s new to me.” Ovechkin in his first 19 seasons missed 59 games — and just 35 because of injury. Durability even while throwing his body around with his physical style is a big reason he is on track to pass Gretzky’s mark of 894 goals that once looked unapproachable. “He doesn’t go out there and just coast around,” Wilson said. “He’s played 20 years every shift running over guys and skating. He’s a power forward, the best goal-scorer ever maybe, and he’s a power forward that plays the game really hard.” Ovechkin surged to the top of the league with 15 goals in his first 18 games this season. He was on pace to break the record and score No. 895 sometime in February. “You know when goal-scorers start scoring, it’s dangerous,” said defenseman John Carlson, who has been teammates with Ovechkin since 2009-10. “There was a bit of that in the downs that everyone was feeling about it too, of course. We see him coming to the rink every day, we know what’s at stake. You never want anyone to get injured, but there’s a lot to it and certainly he was playing his best hockey in years.” ___ AP NHL: https://apnews.com/hub/nhl Stephen Whyno, The Associated Press
What's New Rahm Emanuel has criticized fellow Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris for not embracing being the "change agent" in the presidential race, which she lost to President-elect Donald Trump in November. Why It Matters Emanuel, currently serving as the U.S. ambassador to Japan, has been floated as a potential candidate to lead the Democratic National Committee ( DNC ), though he has not formally announced a bid. If he were to win the race, he would have a key role in determining the future direction of the party. Democrats have been divided over what direction the party should go in after Harris' loss in November. The vice president's campaign has come under scrutiny and faced criticism, with progressives arguing that her embrace of anti-Trump Republicans like former Representative Liz Cheney alienated traditionally Democratic voters, while more moderate Democrats say she ran too far to the left. What to Know Emanuel said on the podcast The Axe Files with David Axelrod released on Monday that he believes Harris' campaign abandoned the vice president's chance to be the "change agent" in the election. "When 70 percent of the country says its headed in the wrong direction, the bones of the election are there. On the other hand, Donald Trump ran a race against the Kamala Harris of 2020, not the Kamala Harris of 2024. They had its obligation to change that, become the change agent she could have, by the nature of her biography, been the change agent. And she didn't. The campaign did not posture that," he said. He said that the Harris campaign did posture her as the change agent in the beginning but "walked away from that." He also chastised Democrats for embracing the political establishment, which he said has lost credibility with the public over the Iraq War, the 2008 Great Recession and the COVID-19 pandemic "Our decision, when the establishment was hated, years later in COVID become the voice of the establishment and embrace the establishment. That has destroyed the party. I think, because, in the last 20 years, the elite and the establishment have lost any credibility with the American public," he said. He noted the public believes the establishment "deceived them into some of the two worst things where livelihoods and lives were lost" and have not apologized or been held accountable for their failures. Trump, meanwhile, understands the "rage" against the political elite, Emanuel said. Newsweek reached out to Emanuel via the Tokyo embassy's email for comment. If Emanuel jumps into the DNC race, he would bring high name recognition and experience and could be viewed as a favorite, despite resistance from some progressives . He previously outlined several ways Democrats can counter Trump in a Washington Post opinion piece. He has held a number of positions, including the mayor of Chicago, White House chief of staff and is a former House Representative. What People Are Saying Speculation about Emanuel running for DNC chair has drawn mixed reception from Democrats. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, on X: "There is a disease in Washington of Democrats who spend more time listening to the donor class than working people. If you want to know the seed of the party's political crisis, that's it. The DNC needs an organizer who gets people. Not someone who sends fish heads in the mail." Axelrod, on X: "Dems need a strong and strategic party leader, with broad experience in comms; fundraising and winning elections. One thought I surfaced on @HacksonTap: Ambassador@RahmEmanuel. There may be others but he is kind of sui [generis]: Dude knows how to fight and win!" What's Next The DNC will elect its next leader on February 1. There will be four candidate forums held in January. Several contenders have already announced their bids , including DNC Vice Chair Ken Martin, Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler, former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley and New York State Senator James Skoufis .

DALLAS (AP) — Max Fried and the New York Yankees have agreed to a $218 million, eight-year contract, the largest deal for a left-handed pitcher in baseball history, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. The person spoke Tuesday on condition of anonymity because the agreement, first reported by ESPN, was subject to a successful physical. New York made the move two days after outfielder Juan Soto left for a pending $765 million, 15-year contract with the rival Mets. Fried, who turns 31 in January, gets the fourth-highest contract among pitchers behind the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Yoshinobu Yamamoto ($325 million), the Yankees’ Gerrit Cole ($324 million) and Washington’s Stephen Strasburg ($245 million), who hasn’t pitched since 2022 and has retired. Fried broke the mark for lefties set by David Price at $217 million. Fried joins a potential rotation that already included Cole, Carlos Rodón, Luis Gil, Clarke Schmidt, Nestor Cortes and Marcus Stroman. Fried spent his first eight seasons with the Braves, making the All-Star team in 2022 and 2024. He had his first big season in 2019, finishing 17-6 with a 4.02 ERA. He was 7-0 with a 2.25 ERA in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, finishing fifth in the National League Cy Young Award voting. The three-time Gold Glove winner had his best season in 2022, going 14-7 with a 2.48 ERA. Fried was 8-1 with a 2.55 ERA in an injury-hampered 2023 season, then was 11-10 with a 3.25 ERA over 29 starts this year.
