The Toronto Maple Leafs are going to get a good look at their most recent first-round pick against professional competition.
CM Punk Jersey . The Leafs announced via Twitter that Frederik Gauthier has signed an amateur try-out contract with the
Toronto Marlies for the duration of the American Hockey League playoffs. In 54
games this season the Rimouski Oceanic centre scored 18 goals and 34 assists. He
would add three goals and six assists in 11 playoff games. The 18-year-old also
represented Canada at the 2014 World Junior Hockey Championship, registering one
assist in seven games in a fourth-place finish. He was selected 21st overall by
the Leafs at the 2013 NHL Draft and has scored 40 goals and 72 assists over 116
career games with Rimouski.
Keith Magnuson Jersey . Mark Teahen scored the go-ahead run in the home seventh on an error by Scott Sizemore, who had
knotted the game with a solo homer in the previous half- inning. Paul Konerko
then hit an RBI single which proved to be the winning run.
Trevor Daley Jersey . The 22-year-old slugger, who is no stranger to adversity, made up for it at the end.LAKE FOREST,
Ill. - Lance Briggs was not too keen on looking back as the Chicago Bears
prepared to face the Green Bay Packers. That season-ending loss last year? Thats
overblown, Briggs said. What matters to the seven-time Pro Bowl linebacker is
that the Bears are going for their third straight win when the Packers visit on
Sunday afternoon a€” not the loss in last years playoffs-or-bust finale at
Soldier Field. Aaron Rodgers returned from a broken collarbone in that game and
hit a wide-open Randall Cobb for a 48-yard touchdown in the closing minute to
clinch the NFC North title. Safety Chris Conte missed his coverage assignment
with the Bears in an all-out blitz, and Chicago missed the playoffs for the
sixth time in seven seasons. To me, this is 2014, Briggs said. We just gotta go
out and win. Gotta go out and win. Thats more important than anything else a€”
we go out and get that W and everybody will be happy. Thats exactly what the
Bears have been doing the past two weeks. They shook off a season-opening loss
to Buffalo at home with prime-time victories on each coast, beating the San
Francisco 49ers and then taking out the New York Jets on Monday night. Theyve
done it despite losing several starters on offence and defence to injuries. The
Packers (1-2) cant seem to get their offence in gear. They rank 28th overall and
27th in the run. The passing game isnt exactly lighting things up, either, and
there was plenty of room to improve overall after last weeks 19-7 loss to
Detroit. The Packers 223 yards of total offence were the teams lowest total
since a 184-yard outing on Nov. 9, 2008, in a 28-27 loss to Minnesota. The 51
offensive plays were nowhere near the goal of 75 that coach Mike McCarthy likes
to run. It has added up to a third straight 1-2 start for Green Bay. We just
have to figure out whats going to work for this team this year and ride with
that, receiver Jordy Nelson said. Here are some things to look for in this game.
CATCH THIS: Both teams have concerns at receiver. Chicagos Brandon Marshall
continues to be limited by an ankle injury. He had just one catch for 6 yards in
Mondays win. On the plus side for the Bears, Alshon Jeffery is coming off a big
game with eight catches for 105 yards after being listed as questionable with a
hamstring issue. For the Pacckers, Nelson is second in the NFL with 351 yards
receiving and tied for third in catches (23).
Pascal Dupuis Jersey. But it would help if they got Cobb going, too. He had three short touchdown catches in the first two
games, but his season high through three games is 58 yards. Well, I think were
close, Rodgers said. Weve had a couple opportunities, we both havent hit on
those. But I have a ton of confidence in him, you know we train together in the
off-season, you know we have a lot of conversations during the week. PEPPERS,
ALLEN: The Bears replaced one top pass rusher with another when they released
Julius Peppers and signed Jared Allen. While they wont be on the field at the
same time, to some they might be competing against each other. The Bears decided
to go in a different direction after Peppers finished with seven sacks last
season, matching the second-lowest total of his career, and parted ways with the
eight-time Pro Bowl defensive end. Instead, they rebuilt a defence that ranked
among the worst in franchise history and brought in Allen, hoping he could spark
their pass rush and solidify their run defence. So far? Allen has a big zero in
the sack column. Peppers had one last week at Detroit. RUN AWAY: The Bears have
a Pro Bowl running back in Matt Forte. Green Bay has last seasons Offensive
Rookie of the Year, Eddie Lacy. Yet, neither team is gaining much on the ground.
Forte had 17 carries for 82 yards in the season-opening loss to Buffalo. Since
then, its been 12 for 21 yards against San Francisco and 13 for 33 against the
Jets. Lacy is averaging just 3.1 yards on his 36 carries, and without much of a
run game, the play action becomes less effective. Maybe something will give this
week, considering neither defence has been good at stopping the run. PICK IT:
Rookie cornerback Kyle Fuller is coming through in a big way for the Bears,
particularly with Charles Tillman suffering a season-ending arm injury. Fuller
picked off Colin Kaepernick twice to help the Bears rally at San Francisco and
had his league-leading third interception while forcing two fumbles against the
Jets. MILESTONE VICTORIES: One team will reach a milestone in this one, assuming
no tie. The Packers will either join Chicago as the only franchises with 700
victories, or the Bears will pick up win No. 750.
