No. 6 Virginia looks to get right against desperate North Carolina

There’s still a week until the March 3 trade deadline, but the Blues are trying to move on from the trades of O’Reilly, Vladimir Tarasenko, Niko Mikkola and Noel Acciari. Shorty for TorpoToropchenko’s seventh NHL goal was also his first shorthanded score. Brayden isn’t a fan of holding players out before the trade deadline, especially for long periods of time.

A family’s tragedy leads to US Supreme Court social media showdown

Beatriz Gonzalez now finds herself at the center of a U.S. Supreme Court showdown over the scope of protections contained in federal law freeing social media platforms from legal responsibility for content posted online by their users. The justices will hear the family’s appeal of a lower court’s decision to throw out the lawsuit, largely based on immunity granted to social media companies under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996. “This court should not undercut a central building block of the modern internet,” Google told the justices in a filing. “There should be zero tolerance for terrorism on social media.
