...Saturday’s 9-8 overtime loss was far from the first heartbreaker for the young squad. Four of the six Crimson losses this season have come by two goals or fewer, and Saturday’s overtime was the team’s second extra-minutes defeat of the year—the first coming in a 10-9 loss at Denver...

Fewer reporters means analysts are increasingly reliant on the same wires and sources as others. This has already been evident in the number of identical articles drawn from the Associated Press filling the pages of papers across the nation. When budget constraints necessitate that something gets cut, investigative reporting is often...
