    The Hardens just got better with another potent scorer off the bench. Some of you may be familiar with him.

    On Wednesday, sources told Josina Anderson that the Oakland Raiders have caught Peterson's attention. One significant reason for Peterson's interest is the team's offensive line. Last season, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr had the league's lowest sack rate and the team's running backs were sixth in the league in yards after contact.

    Kings announcer Bob Miller to retire amid health concerns
    ESPN.com news services — 4 hours ago

    Bob Miller, the Los Angeles Kings' Hall of Fame TV play-by-play man, is retiring on doctor's orders.

    Miller, who has been out while recovering from a mild stroke he suffered in January, said in a news conference Thursday at the Staples Center that he intended to return to call the Kings' last two games this season, on April 8 and April 9. He said his doctor had strongly recommended he not continue to work.

    "I don't want this to be a sad situation," Miller said, according to the Los Angeles Times. "I've had a great time working with people and visiting with fans down through the years."

    Miller, 78, had taken a seven-game break last month while he continued to recuperate from the stroke. He was stricken on Jan. 28 and admitted to a hospital, where he underwent an undisclosed procedure.

    He is in his 44th season with the Kings. Miller missed the final three months of last season because of quadruple-bypass surgery.

    Miller had reduced his travel schedule during the team's 50th anniversary season and had planned to call 58 games, including all home games, and the first round of the playoffs if the team advances.

    The Kings have installed Ralph Strangis in his place with Jim Fox to call games on Fox Sports West. Strangis has filled in for Miller this season and formerly was the voice of the Dallas Stars.

    Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

    Bob was at the arena tonight. Nice to see the Kings get a nice come from behind win for him.

    I would add Dick Enberg (Rams and Angels) on that Mt. Rushmore of LA announcers.

    don't like that thurman got on his bicycle the last couple rounds
    but he was just a bit too crafty and piled up enough of the early rounds
    garcia needed to let his hands go more

    Yeah, Garcia got touched up early on a few occasions and then as he started to try to press late his lack of ring generalship failed him.
    Garcia has a great chin, one of the best I've seen that's out there right now, but you could tell he respected Thurman's power.
    And then Thurman proved to be the better athlete/craftier guy late..what Kovalev couldn't do to Ward..or wouldn't do w/Ward when he probably should have.
