“No journey has been sweeter than the ones I take with Pancake by my side,” Gustafson said. “'Pancake’s Passport' is more than just a story. It’s an invitation to dream big, embrace new experiences, and see the world through a lens of kindness, curiosity and faith.”

Roster cuts
The Las Vegas Aces waived Deja Kelly on Monday.
Kelly shined during training camp for the Aces, even scoring a last-second basket in the team’s preseason finale to give Las Vegas an 85-84 win over the Phoenix Mercury.
The undrafted rookie is expected to continue her WNBA journey after leaving a strong impression during the preseason.

As the Stanley Cup Playoffs heat up, so does the taunting.
Local Las Vegas eatery PKWY Tavern is trolling Oilers fans with a billboard campaign in Edmonton, reminding them of the Vegas Golden Knights’ dramatic Game 3 win on Saturday.
Winger Reilly Smith scored a game-winning goal on Edmonton with 0.4 seconds left on the clock, preventing the Oilers from taking a 3-0 series lead.
The Knights look to even the series Monday night in Game 4. Puck drops at 6:30 p.m. on TNT.
