The first sign that something was wrong, Dave Sarachan said, were the sirens. “Incredible sirens that I had never heard before,” he said. “Then I heard a couple of things like thunder, but it wasn’t cloudy.” It was just before sunrise on Oct. 7 and Israel was under attack.

Elliott: Why Anze Kopitar beats Gretzky, Dionne and Robitaille as king of Kings
Kings center Anze Kopitar always knew where he wanted to go, never mind the prohibitive odds stacked against him. He was determined to become a professional hockey player, even though his homeland of Slovenia — part of Yugoslavia until 1991 — had little hockey tradition and few ice rinks. He realized at a young age…
Who are the top 10 Kings of all time? Three experts make their picks
Kings forward Wayne Gretzky (Getty Images) 1. Anze Kopitar: All those assists, two Stanley Cups, an exceptional two-way player who’s still a standout at 36. 2.

Mexico shows its inexperience as Colombia rallies to victory at Coliseum
The Mexico national team will be back in Southern California in June for its second group-stage game in Copa América. And there’s a chance some of the players coach Jaime Lozano used in Saturday’s 3-2 loss to Colombia will make that trip. That would have been a risky bet before Saturday. But Mexico’s not-ready-for-prime-time players,…
Why Mexico is fielding one of its youngest teams ever vs. Colombia at the Coliseum
One of Jaime Lozano’s chief tasks when he was put in charge of the Mexico national team last summer was to make its talent pool deeper and younger. Which brings us to Saturday’s friendly with Colombia, to be played in front of an expected crowd of more than 60,000 at the Coliseum. Fifteen of the…
