MONTREAL — The Montreal Canadiens signed defenceman Adam Engstrom to a three-year, entry-level contract on Friday. The 20-year-old Engstrom had four goals and 18 assists in 51 games for Rögle BK of the Swedish Hockey League this season, ranking second among defencemen on his team with 22 points. The six-foot-two, 193-pound blueliner added four assists in 15 playoff games as Rogle reached the SHL final. Montreal drafted Engstrom in the third round, 92nd overall, in the 2022 NHL draft.

World series front-runner Argentina dismissed signs of a slump by blowing away titleholder New Zealand 33-5 to close the Singapore Sevens first day on Friday. Argentina won three successive tournaments until it surprisingly crashed in the Los Angeles quarterfinals in March and failed to reach the Hong Kong quarterfinals in April, when New Zealand beat it 22-0 en route to the title. The loss of star Marcos Moneta to a broken right fibula in Los Angeles seemed to weigh heavier when the Argentines started Singapore by losing to Australia 26-19 for the first time in 15 months.

Scientists at the State University of Milan have found a way to help astronauts keep fit on the Moon - running across a “Wall of Death” fairground attraction. When astronauts return to The Moon as part of NASA's Artemis program they will face numerous challenges - one of which will be keeping fit. Living in microgravity conditions on the Moon poses significant threats to human health, including muscle weakening, bone density loss, and circulation issues. Unlike on Earth, where running horizontally on a vertical wall is physically impossible due to gravity, the reduced lunar gravity—only 1/6th of Earth's—makes it feasible. The team recreated lunar gravitational conditions using a cylindrical structure, a "Wall of Death", rented from an amusement park. This is usually used by motorcyclists performing gravity-defying stunts. Volunteers, suspended from a telescopic arm with elastic bands, were able to run horizontally on the vertical wall at speeds of 19 to 22 km/h, simulating the experience of running on the Moon. The proposed training regimen suggests two short sessions per day, utilising the walls of circular living modules planned for lunar habitats. With further research and implementation, it promises to ensure the health and well-being of future lunar settlers as humanity ventures once more to the Moon.
The Federal Trade Commission made headlines this week when it barred a well-known Texas oil executive from joining Exxon Mobil board, as a condition of the oil major’s purchase of Pioneer Natural Resources. The buzzy news around the deal was the FTC’s allegation that former Pioneer CEO Scott Sheffield had tried to convince other oil producers to slow production and boost prices. Sheffield declined to comment, but Pioneer disputed the FTC’s claims about collusion, saying the commission has a “fundamental misunderstanding of the U.S. and global oil markets.”

It’s being heralded as a culinary breakthrough. Scientists at Aberystwyth University reckon that within two years they will have created a soft white loaf with all the nutrition of wholemeal. So you can get that floaty texture, that melting mouth-feel in a cheese and ham sandwich, or that thin crispness when toasted and buttered, bursting with umami when spread with Marmite.

Remember that old NatWest ad? A forlorn old lady moaned, ‘Oh dear, my bank is now a trendy wine bar,’ as a Champagne cork popped in the background of a bustling city-centre street. Twenty years on, however, the residents of Sheffield have woken up to find that the city’s most famous housing estate now has a trendy wine bar: proof that this once most mocked of drinking establishments is more than just a punchline.

TORONTO — Sheldon Keefe's team had a decision to make. The Maple Leafs head coach watched his players put in a terrible Game 4 performance on home ice against the Boston Bruins — one that left them sitting in a 3-1 series hole against an opponent seemingly on cruise control to the second round of the Stanley Cup tournament. The disastrous showing last Saturday also included star Toronto forwards Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and William Nylander bickering on the bench, and brought ugly narrative
