Paul Maurice and Bruce Cassidy coaching in Stanley Cup Final shows value of experience

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The joy Paul Maurice felt on the morning of the start of the Stanley Cup Final was also tinged with sadness. The veteran coach knew there were only at most seven more games left to play.He had developed a greater appreciation for this moment with the Florida Panthers, 21 removed from his first trip to the final. Bruce Cassidy felt the same way being back as coach of the Vegas Golden Knights three years after falling one win short with Boston.One of them will hoist the Cup for the first time, and their presence in the final is evidence of why NHL teams looking to win put a priority on experienced coaches. Often derided as “recycled” or “retreads,” coaches like Maurice and Cassidy provide tangible value navigating crucial situations.“Depending on where your team’s at likely dictates to some extent the decisions that you’re going to make with respect to that position,” said Vegas general manager Kelly McCrimmon, who fired Peter DeBoer after his team missed the playoffs...

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

BALASORE, India — El descarrilamiento en el este de India en el que murieron al menos 275 personas y cientos más resultaron heridas fue provocado por un error en el sistema de señalización electrónica, que hizo que un tren cambiara de vía de forma errónea y chocara con un tren de mercancías, según indicaron las autoridades el domingo.Las autoridades trabajaban para despejar los restos retorcidos de los dos trenes de pasajeros que descarrilaron el viernes por la noche en el distrito de Balasore, en el estado oriental de Odisha. Fue uno de los accidentes ferroviarios con más muertos que registraba el país en décadas.El gobierno de Odisha dio una cifra revisada de 275 muertos en un comunicado, después de que un funcionario estatal de alto nivel dijera que había más de 300 fallecidos el domingo por la mañana. El funcionario habló bajo condición de anonimato porque no estaba autorizado a informar a la prensa. En video: terrorífico descarrilamiento de trenes deja cerca de 30...

Djokovic breaks tie with Nadal by reaching French Open quarterfinals for 17th time; Alcaraz wins

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

PARIS (AP) — Novak Djokovic broke a tie with rival Rafael Nadal by reaching the French Open quarterfinals for the record 17th time, never truly in trouble during a 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 victory over Juan Pablo Varillas on Sunday.“Well, I’m proud of it, but my attention is already on the next match,” said Djokovic, who will play No. 11 Karen Khachanov for a semifinal berth that could come against No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz. “I know what my goal is here. I’m trying to stay, mentally, the course and of course not look too far.”That’s because Djokovic is closing on bettering Nadal in a more prestigious category: Grand Slam singles championships. Both currently sit at 22. For Djokovic, that total includes two at Roland Garros, in 2016 and 2021, and he can become the first man to own at least three trophies from each major tournament.Nadal is a 14-time champion in Paris but is missing this time because of a hip injury; he had arthroscopic surgery Friday night that is expected to sideline him for ...

Cómo pagar tus préstamos estudiantiles cuando finalice la pausa por la pandemia este verano

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

NUEVA YORK — Una pausa de tres años en los pagos de préstamos estudiantiles terminará este verano independientemente de cómo la Corte Suprema dictamine sobre el plan de la Casa Blanca de perdonar miles de millones de dólares en deudas de préstamos estudiantiles.Si el Congreso aprueba un acuerdo de techo de deuda negociado por el presidente de la Cámara Kevin McCarthy y el presidente Joe Biden, los pagos se reanudarán a fines de agosto, lo que pondrá fin a cualquier esperanza persistente de una mayor extensión de la pausa que comenzó durante la pandemia del COVID-19. Incluso si el trato fracasa, los pagos se reanudarán 60 días después de la decisión de la Corte Suprema.Ese fallo se espera en algún momento antes de finales de junio. Independientemente de lo que decidan los jueces, más de 40 millones de prestatarios deberán comenzar a pagar sus préstamos a fines del verano a más tardar.Esto es lo que debe saber para prepararse para comenzar a pagar los préstamos:¿CÓMO DEBO PREPARARME P...

Anti-war Russians face dilemma with Sunday’s mass Navalny protests

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

What to gift the man who is barred from receiving anything, and also is Vladimir Putin’s biggest political foe?How about a mass demonstration?That’s what supporters of Alexei Navalny are ginning up for the jailed Russian opposition leader’s 47th birthday on Sunday.From exile, they are calling Russians to action, both inside and outside the country.“Let’s show him on his birthday that he has not been forgotten,” Georgy Alburov, who works for Navalny’s Anti-Corruption Foundation (FBK), said in a YouTube video posted in mid-May. “Wherever you are, whichever country, go out to support Navalny.”Sunday marks the third birthday that Navalny will spend in prison since he was arrested after recovering from a poison attack, which his team says was carried out on Russian President Putin’s direct orders.“Putin wants Navalny to feel alone. Moreover, he wants every single one of us to feel that way,” Lyubov Sobol, another Navalny associate, said in the video calling for protests. The Navalny...

Ticker: Southwest reaches deal with flight attendants; Ford warns of fire risk in some Lincoln SUVs 

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

Dallas-based Southwest Airlines has reached an agreement in principle with its flight attendants union after almost a year in mediation.Transport Workers Union Local 556, the union representing Southwest’s nearly 19,000 flight attendants, filed for federal mediation in July 2022 to help with over three years of a stalled contract. The union’s previous contract was effective until October 2018, but COVID-19 also put a pause on negotiations in 2020.It’s a key deal as the company looks to quell labor unrest heading into the holiday season. The company is still negotiating with the union for pilots and ground workers.No further details of the tentative flight attendant contract were available at this time, although workers were looking for major raises as part of the deal.“We are pleased that we have reached an agreement in principle with TWU Local 556 regarding a new contract for our Flight Attendants,” said Adam Carlisle, vice president of labor relations at Southwest Airlines in a st...

Saudi Arabia is slashing oil supply. It could mean higher gas prices for US drivers

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:24:45 GMT

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Saudi Arabia will reduce how much oil it sends to the global economy, taking a unilateral step to prop up the sagging price of crude after two previous cuts to supply by major producing countries in the OPEC+ alliance failed to push oil higher.The Saudi cut of 1 million barrels per day, to start in July, comes as the other OPEC+ producers agreed in a meeting in Vienna to extend earlier production cuts through next year.Calling the reduction a “lollipop,” Saudi Energy Minister Abdulaziz bin Salman said at a news conference that “we wanted to ice the cake.” He said the cut could be extended and that the group “will do whatever is necessary to bring stability to this market.”The new cut would likely push up oil prices in the short term, but the impact after that would depend on whether Saudi Arabia decides to extend it, said Jorge Leon, senior vice president of oil markets research at Rystad Energy. The move provides “a price floor because the Saudis can play ...
