Where Do I Sign Up?

Finding someone who loves the game (and you)? There's an app for that

On top of all the popular dating sites, such as eHarmony, Plenty Of Fish and Zoosk, exist enterprises whose specific charge is to help golfers find other golfers. There's the American Singles Golf Association, with 62 chapters across the country that regularly host golf outings, clinics and dinner parties so people can meet in person. The association estimates that three-quarters of its membership is between 45 and 60. For the online crowd there's GolfMates.com, which charges $70 for three months of full membership, and the free DateAGolfer.com. 

Though both ensure that the matches you encounter have an interest in golf, the scale of these sites is far smaller than the scale of the more popular dating sites, which attract millions of users. When I created a profile on DateAGolfer, I found just three guys based in New York City who were within my age range (25 to 35 years old).

Edmonton Oilers in sell-off mode in the Pacific Division - ESPN.com

Los Angeles Kings

• Like a punch to the gut early in a boxing match, the Kings were stung by Dustin Byfuglien's re-signing with the Jets. They would have loved to have made the Winnipeg Jets a trade offer. Now they need to recover and look at other options on defense in the rental trade market. None compare to what Byfuglien could have provided, but it's time to move on. Pending unrestricted free agents Dan Hamhuis (if he's willing to waive his no-trade clause), Kris Russell (if he doesn't re-sign with the Flames) and, to a lesser degree, Roman Polak could all be options. The waiving of Christian Ehrhoff this week underlines L.A.'s need to add depth on the blue line.

San Jose Sharks

• The Sharks aren't desperate, but adding another body for depth to their blue-line corps remains the priority. Insurance is needed because any injury to their top four would leave a youthful group needing to step up. A veteran rental add-on makes sense.

Anaheim Ducks

• My sense is that Ducks general manager Bob Murray wanted to see how the first two to three weeks after the All-Star break went before he decided how he was going to proceed ahead of the trade deadline. The Ducks have continued their winning ways. They've already made a few moves this season, so nothing is forcing Murray to do anything. But he'd get depth on defense and could use one of those trade chips to beef up the forward ranks if he sees something he likes.

Buffalo's Kane benched for missing practice

Sabres forward broke team rule; to miss Ottawa game

Buffalo Sabres left wing Evander Kane won't play against the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday because he missed practice Monday, coach Dan Bylsma said.

"He slept in, called [general manager] Tim {Murray] and myself, broke a team rule," said Bylsma. "We'll be dealing with it internally, but he will not be playing in Ottawa. I'm disappointed."
