Edmonton Oilers lost in the Stanley Cup Final for the second time in a row.

Coach Kris Knoblauch has guided the club to the final two finals of the past two seasons.

No other head coach in the NHL has won more games in the regular season and playoffs combined than Edmonton’s current head coach.

Despite all the success, Knoblauch and the rest of his coaching staff have their work cut out for themselves in order to get their team over the one last hump that remains between them and the ultimate prize.

“There’s a lot of things we want to address over the summer, going into the next regular season, and special teams will be one of them,” he said.

Mehrabi raised the possibility of future social robots that could assist in broader health-care tasks such as monitoring health and supporting early diagnoses.

Staff at retirement homes and long-term care residences sometimes wonder how the robots will affect their jobs.

St. James hopes that within five to 10 years, every retirement home in North America will have at least one robot.

The new 28 Years Later sequel is a bleak fever dream with rage pumping through its veins.

The most terrifying thing about the franchise’s latest chapter is how oddly conservative and, at times, nationalistic its story winds up becoming.

The film frequently cuts to archival footage of British soldiers marching during World War I and scenes from Laurence Olivier's Henry V.

The way 28 Years Later evolves its monsters is one of the more interesting aspects of the film.

Boyle showcases the film’s new types of monsters brilliantly in a number of action sequences that make heavy use of a unique iPhone camera array.

The story's rote-ness keeps the film from feeling like the product of Boyle and Garland working at the height of their powers.

As funds grow larger and deploy more capital, they’re becoming necessarily more algorithmic, Hudson says.

The approach works for deploying large amounts of capital efficiently, but it misses the weird and wonderful” companies that have defined Hudson’s best returns.

A large heat ridge or dome will build over the Ohio Valley in the U.S. and expand into southeastern Canada by the end of the weekend.

Temperatures are expected to reach the low to mid-30s C and the humidex could make that feel much higher.

Heat exhaustion is characterized by headache, dizziness, extreme thirst, heavy sweating, muscle cramps and nausea and vomiting.

Vulnerable populations, such as youth and older adults, may find it more difficult to beat the heat.

A B.C. coroner’s report following the 2023 heat dome noted that 98 per cent of the 619 deaths identified as being related to heat occurred indoors.

Those living alone or socially isolated can also be vulnerable to heat.

Police in Neepawa, Man., are looking for a pair of suspects captured on video surveillance during a home invasion.

Two masked suspects forced their way into a home, before being confronted by an armed homeowner.

On their way out, the suspects allegedly fired a gun into the side of the home, causing minor damage.

Police said the incident appears to have been random, and the suspects left in a GMC pickup truck.
