Ottawa Senators defenceman Marc Methot is on his way back to Ottawa to meet with team doctors and will not represent Canada at the 2014 World Hockey Championship.Brett Kern Titans Jersey . Methot is dealing with a back issue that will force him to miss the tournament. Philadelphia Flyers defenceman Braydon Coburn will replace Methot on the Canadian roster. The 2014 World Hockey Championship will take place in Minsk, Belarus from May 9-25. Derrick Morgan Titans Jersey . The Habs open up the 2013-2014 NHL season at home against the Toronto Maple Leafs on October 1 and even though camp doesnt start until September 11, all players were on hand with the exception of Tomas Plekanec and Davis Drewiske. Warren Moon Titans Jersey . - Zach Redmonds power-play goal late in the third period lifted the St.ARE, Sweden - Having waited nearly four years for a World Cup win, Maria Pietilae-Holmner was lost for words when it finally came.The Swede beat overall leader Tina Maze by just .06 seconds to clinch victory in Saturdays slalom, with home fans given extra reason to cheer as Frida Hansdotter finished third on her 29th birthday.Talking to the media proved more difficult for Pietilae-Holmner than taming the rock-hard Olympia course in freezing conditions that dropped to minus 17 degrees Celsius (1 degree Fahrenheit) in the mornings first run.Im getting emotional again, Pietilae-Holmner said as she tried to describe what it meant to win her first race since a City Event in Munich in January, 2011.For a long moment, no words came out, as she sat hunched forward, wiping tears away from her eyes.It was a ninth career podium for the 28-year-old Pietilae-Holmner and first since finishing second here in a slalom race in March.Her only other career victory was also in slalom — at Aspen, Colorado two months before Munich.This means so much, said Pietilae-Holmner , who won in a combined time of 1 minute, 43.65 seconds. Its really big to prove I can be the best one again and to do it at home is even bigger.After crossing the finish line, she paused, looked at the giant screen and then held her hands over her head as she saw the winners light.Emotional is the right word, she said. I decided to just enjoy it. Sometimes its easy to get a little bit stressed. I was trying to enjoy the nice view. Im a skier who hears everything, I can see my coaches on the way down, and for sure I heard the crowd.Hansdotter finishedd . Jurrell Casey Titans Jersey. .32 behind in third for her 13th career podium.Its nice to share the podium with Maria, Hansdotter said.Sixth fastest after the first run, Olympic slalom champion Mikaela Shiffrin of the United States just missed out on another podium, finishing fourth after a brilliant second run full of her trademark aggression. Marie-Michele Gagnon of Lac-Etchemin, Que., was 11th and Erin Mielzynski of Collingwood, Ont., was 21st.Shiffrin, who won the season-opening giant slalom in Soelden, Austria, in October, posted 51.65 and was just .02 behind a relieved Hansdotter, who clinched her third podium this season, all of them in slalom.Another learning experience, said the 19-year-old Shiffrin, who was a disappointing 10th in Fridays giant slalom. Im much happier to be fourth and two hundredths off the podium (than 10th).The 31-year-old Maze was aiming for her fourth victory of the season and second in slalom, after winning in Levi, Finland, last month.Maze is right back where she was two years ago and looks like shes hammering, Shiffrin said. With the world championships coming up (in late March) everyones really gunning for the podium and Im trying to do the same. I have to learn to have that fighting spirit, not just a winning spirit.After complaining of jet lag on Friday, having made the switch from North America to Europe earlier this week, Maze is looking forward to much-needed rest before heading to the French Alpine resort of Val dIsere for next weeks speed races.Now its two days of sleeping, Im really happy about that, Maze said. The body needs some time to get used to it. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys Cheap Soccer Jerseys ' ' '
