Teens will be able to choose one of three six hour slots during which they will not have internet access to games: 12AM - 6AM, 1AM - 7AM, 2AM - 8AM. The ban will affect popular Korean games like Barameui Nara, Maple Story, and Mabinogi. Strangely certain popular titles like Lineage aren’t on the list of games being restricted despite falling under the same category of gaming. There’s also an additional “slowdown” system being put in place which will choke internet connection speeds if an under-aged user has been logged in for an extended period of time....

David Krejci scored on a tip-in with 44.7 seconds left and the Bruins extended their NHL-best run of 19 straight games with a point by beating the Ottawa Senators 3-2 Saturday night. “It’s a nice number,” Krejci said. “We know what we’re playing here for, and obviously (tonight was a) good finish from the team.” This was Boston’s third come-from-behind victory this week. Brad Marchand and Chris Wagner also scored for the Bruins, who improved to 15-0-4 in their last 19 to establish the second-longest points streak in franchise history — the 1940-41 club holds the team mark with 15 wins and eight ties over a 23-game run....

“Our batting didn’t click as a unit,” Srikkanth said. “It is a bit surprising as we were confident of a good show in Australia. But we must admit that Australia have played better cricket than us.” Sachin Tendulkar has been the best batsman for India in this series. But for him the journey to that elusive milestone is proving slippery yet again, he has got out after caressing his way to scores 73, 32, 80, 41 in four innings....

Koepka continued to attack Bellerive Country Club early in his third round, firing a five-under 30 on the front nine. He led by five shots at one point, but successive bogeys on the back nine stalled his momentum.

But he now has the chance to win his second major of the season, having previously defended the U....

Lesnar has shown a more light-hearted side to his menacing on-screen persona in recent months. The WWE Champion even told a knock-knock joke to Bobby Lashley on last week’s episode of RAW, ending with the punchline, “Bobby who? Exactly.” Speaking on his Keepin’ It 100 podcast, WCW legend Konnan questioned why WWE shows a giant graphic of Lesnar’s sword tattoo during his entrance.

That, in a sense, was North Korea six years ago. Kim Il Sung had died, leaving his communist country in the hands of his pasty-faced son, 53-year-old Kim Jong Il. Until recently, North Korean “watchers” in South Korea and abroad portrayed the younger Kim as a man weak for wine, women and Army toys. Analysts opined that he would ruin North Korea and get toppled in a coup. Seoul spent years trying to discredit Kim....

Coman replaced fellow winger Franck Ribery in the 58th minute of Bayern’s 1-0 Bundesliga win at the Allianz Arena on Saturday. But, after Javi Martinez scored the only goal of the game five minutes earlier, Coman had to be taken off after apparently hurting the back of his thigh, and the France international went straight down the tunnel. Coman has been plagued by injury during his career and he hurt his ankle in last week’s 3-2 victory at Augsburg in which he scored twice and created the winner....

The England and Wales Cricket Board led the way with the format in the early 2000s, pioneering T20 as a vehicle to help counties attract crowds with a shorter, sharper product aimed at those less inclined to stick around and watch for a whole day. Yet the head start on other countries failed to help at international level. At the inaugural ICC World T20 event in 2007, England plumped for domestic specialists and recorded just one win on South African soil in five outings....

In a battle of the league’s two newest franchises, the older kids — the Golden Knights — won 4-3. While Seattle came out with some jump and got an early chance by Jordan Eberle that rang off the pipe and a power-play opportunity, it was Vegas that cashed in early. The Golden Knights scored two goals in the opening seven minutes — one by Max Pacioretty and one by Jonathan Marchessault — before adding a third less than seven minutes into the middle frame....

The NHL announced the decision on Tuesday afternoon. Letang, the Penguins’ best defenseman, will miss Game 4 of their series against Washington on Wednesday. MORE: The series has gone off the rails The main issue with the hit: It was late with significant head contact. The league said it was not charging, and that Letang did not leap into it. Washington defenseman Brooks Orpik was suspended three games for a more delayed hit that likely concussed Olli Maatta....

Just 48 hours before New York made him the fourth overall pick, the 19-year-old Porzingis boldly declared he had his heart set on making his time in midtown Manhattan this week more than a sojourn. Porzingis spoke glowingly about the idea of a possible marriage with an outfit coming off a franchise-worst 17-65 season.

Vincenzo Nibali of Italy, having made sure that his main rivals couldn’t claw back any time, finished smoothly in the trailing pack to keep the overall leader’s yellow jersey. After two days in the Alps, Sunday’s stage offered some relief over a flat 222 kilometers (138 miles) from Tallard, southeast France’s parachuting capital, toward the city of Nimes — known for its Roman arena and bullfighting. Kristoff, a Katusha rider who also won Stage 12, lifted a fist after leading the sprinters who surged ahead of the two breakaways — Swiss champion Martin Elmiger and Jack Bauer of New Zealand — who had led the stage virtually since the starter’s gun....
