WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins defeated the Springfield Thunderbirds, 3-1, on Saturday night at Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza, completing a perfect sweep of their three-game week.

Rutger McGroarty and Joel Blomqvist returned from preseason injuries, and both players left their mark on the team’s fourth-straight win. With a goal from McGroarty and a 23-save victory for Blomqvist, the Penguins improved to 12-3-1-0 on the season.

The Penguins opened the scoring just 2:20 into the night with Raivis Ansons supplying the tally. Ansons picked up a lively rebound that popped back to the blueline, and he then snapped a shot under the crossbar for his first goal of the season.

Shortly thereafter, Boko Imama and Kale Kessy dropped the gloves for a center-stage fight that brought the crowd to its feet. After serving his five minutes for fighting, Imama tipped in a high-rising wrister and made it 2-0 at 12:51 of the first period.

McGroarty let the Thunderbirds know he had no intentions of beginning his season without a goal, scoring 66 seconds into the middle frame. McGroarty soared down the left wing and cut across the T-Birds’ crease to slide a backhand shot through the five hole of Georgii Romanov.

Springfield got back into the game with a power-play goal from Hugh McGing at 11:52 of the second period.

Blomqvist denied all 12 shots that he faced in the final 20 minutes of play, ensuring his return from IR ended in the win column. Romanov made 21 saves while manning the crease for Springfield.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s next game is on the road, Friday, Nov. 21 against the Hartford Wolf Pack. Puck drop between the Penguins and Wolf Pack is set for 7:00 p.m. from PeoplesBank Arena.

Although the Connecticut Sun had a grim 2025 season, there were plenty of players who still managed to shine on the court. Of course, three of those players included the talented rookie trio —  Leïla Lacan, Aneesah Morrow and Saniya Rivers. Between their chemistry, natural gift for basketball and their willingness to learn, they made quite an impression during their first year in the WNBA.

Now that the offseason is in full swing, each franchise is looking to improve for next year, and much of that has to do with how they navigate this offseason. Quite a few players are competing elsewhere while they continue to develop, including Saniya Rivers, who will be playing for one of the new expansion teams — the Hive Basketball Club —in Unrivaled.

She will be away from her Sun teammates during the Unrivaled season, allowing her to build more connections and confidence on and off the court. Rivers undoubtedly had an impressive season, but by the time Unrivaled rolls around in January, will she still have that same level of momentum, or will we start to see a dip in performance?

Rivers, a 22-year-old guard from North Carolina State, hit the ground running after being drafted as the overall pick No. 8 in the first round of the 2025 WNBA draft. She was named the only rookie in the WNBA this year to his the 100-stock mark, and she became the only Sun rookie in franchise history to wrap up their first season with…

Food Network stars like Scott Conant, Robert Irvine, Marc Murphy, Chris Santos and Maneet Chauhan will descend upon Mohegan Sun in January for the Mohegan Sun Wine & Food Fest. The four day-long festival, which runs from Jan. 22-25, will feature tastings and other food-based experiences with notable international, national and local chefs and food personalities.

One of these personalities is chef Shawn Osbey, a Danbury native who operates his own Atlanta-based catering company. Known as the “traveling chef,” Osbey harnesses the recipes and experiences of other cultures and has found ways to incorporate those inspirations into his own cuisine.

“It keeps my ideas and my artistry fresh. It’s not just about me creating events, it’s also about me experiencing different cultures and different foods as well,” Osbey. “That kind of resonates and translates back into my food.”

“It’s always great to see different cultures; the way they kind of create experiences and then I can take bits and stuff and create unique experiences for my clients,” Osbey added.

Growing up in Danbury in the 1980s and ’90s, Osbey found a passion for cooking through his time spent at home on snowdays.

“We had those big, big snowstorms back in those days,” Osbey said. “We were stuck in the house so my family and I would turn to cooking. We would cook all day. I would turn my kitchen into a little restaurant.”

“I would take my notepad and go room to…

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins sustained a 4-3, overtime loss to the Toronto Marlies on Wednesday night at Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (8-2-1-0) dominated the first two periods, but were left stunned by a four-goal comeback by Toronto.

Tristan Broz opened the scoring just 16 seconds into the contest when he rifled a shot off the iron and in. The swift tally marked the third-fastest goal to start a game in Penguins franchise history.

At the end of the first, the Penguins had out-shot the Marlies 12-5, but only had a one-goal lead for their efforts. That changed when Wilkes-Barre/Scranton started the second period with a bang. Atley Calvert chipped in a rebound less than two minutes into the frame.

Eight minutes later, Boko Imama scored his first goal of the season. Imama’s shot deflected off two Marlies defenders before sneaking past Artur Akhtyamov as the Penguins took a 3-0 lead.

Borya Valis put Toronto on the board less than two minutes into the third period. The Marlies cut the deficit to one halfway through the final frame thanks to captain Logan Shaw. Just over two minutes later, Benoit-Olivier Groulx flicked a backhander across the goal line, tying things up at three apiece.

After several grand scoring opportunities for the Penguins in overtime, Toronto completed its comeback in the final minute of OT. Travis Boyd drilled the game-winner on a two-on-one rush with 42 seconds left to play.

Filip Larsson made 19 saves, dropping his record to 3-0-1 on the season. Akhtyamov made 26 stops in the win for Toronto, including three saves in overtime.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s next game is Friday, Nov. 7, when the Penguins take on the Rochester Americans. Game time between the Penguins and Amerks is slated for…
