MONTREAL - The Montreal Canadiens may catch a break tonight against the Washington Capitals as Alex Ovechkins game status remains uncertain for their
Bell Centre match-up.
Laremy Tunsil Dolphins Jersey . Washington has played its last two games without the NHLs goal-scoring leader. The winger
has 35 goals on the season and is battling a lower-body injury. TSNs John Lu
reports that Ovechkin did extensive one-timers at end of his session at
Saturdays morning skate. Lu reports that if Ovechkin feels good in the afternoon
and during pre-game skate he should play. You can listen to the action on TSN
Radio 690 beginning at 7pm et. Both clubs will be looking to snap losing streaks
on Saturday night as each wraps up games on back-to-back nights. The Capitals
are in the midst of a seven-game skid, dropping the last five in regulation.
That has Washington now four points back of the eighth spot in the Eastern
Conference. Montreal is on a less-damaging three-game slide and also has lost
six of its past nine. That has left the Canadiens tied with the Toronto Maple
Leafs for third place in the Atlantic Division and six points behind the
co-leading Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning. Montreal is set to play two
straight and six of its next seven at home after getting outscored 14-5 in
losing the final three contests of a four-game road trip. The Canadiens capped
the swing last night with a 4-1 setback in Detroit. Brendan Gallagher picked up
the lone goal for the Canadiens, but Carey Price made just 22 saves in the
setback. "Everyone is still confident in each other, its just a matter of
getting to little details of the game and once you do that, the wins will start
to come," Gallagher said Montreal is on its longest losing streak since dropping
a season-high four in a row from Nov. 1-7 and saw Alexei Emelin depart in the
latter stages of the third period on Friday night after getting hit by a shot.
Things dont get any easier for the Habs in the opener of this residency as they
have lost six in a row and nine of their last 12 at home to the Capitals. The
Capitals were shut out 2-0 by Ottawa in their first game without Ovechkin on
Tuesday, then dropped a 2-1 decision to the hosting New Jersey Devils to begin a
five-game trip on Friday night. Jason Chimera provided the lone offense for the
Capitals, but it didnt come until there was 9:50 left in the game. Washington
has been held to one goal or fewer six times over its losing streak and is just
1-for-24 on the power play in the last eight games. Michael Neuvirth played well
in defeat, making 28 saves, but the Caps failed to take advantage of the chances
they had. "We had three short-handed breakaways and we didnt score," Caps coach
Adam Oates lamented. "(Devils goaltender Cory Schneider) held them in and made
the saves when he needed to. We made saves, too. You need execution, and the
mistakes are not blatant, but its still the NHL and you get burned." Washington,
on its longest losing streak since an 0-6-2 drought from Dec. 2-18, 2010, also
lost center Mikhail Grabovski to a lower-body injury during the second period
and he did not return. He will be a game-time decision against Montreal. The
clubs split two meetings earlier this season in Washington, with the Caps
winning their game in a shootout, and the Canadiens have lost nine of their last
11 overall in this series.

Cameron Wake Dolphins Jersey .com) - Sam Gagner and Devan Dubnyk, two former Oilers, led the Arizona Coyotes to a 5-1 win
in Edmonton Tuesday.If battling back is a sign of a team that knows how to win,
the Winnipeg Goldeyes presented a strong case Wednesday night. The Goldeyes came
back from two deficits to beat the Kansas City T-Bones 7-5 before 6,523 joyous
fans at Shaw Park. The win moves Winnipeg 6 1/2 games ahead of the St. Paul
Saints in the American Associations North Division and extends the Goldeyes
winning streak to a season-high seven games. “These guys never give up,”
Goldeyes outfielder Reggie Abercrombie said of his teammates, who despite the
win stranded a season-high 13 runners on the base paths. “Every time you go out
there, you expect to be in the game.” After Winnipeg opened the scoring in the
bottom of the second inning on a Kansas City error, the T-Bones struck for four
runs against Goldeyes starter Chris Salamida in the top of the third. The
T-Bones batted around in the inning and had five hits. The Goldeyes dug into the
deficit with two runs in the bottom of the fifth, as Casey Haerther, who doubled
to lead off the inning, scored on a sac fly and Luis Alen drove in Abercrombie
with a single. Winnipeg tied the game an inning later when Ray Sadlers sac fly
brought home Josh Mazzola. The T-Bones quickly regained the lead with a run in
the top of the seventh, but the Goldeyes didnt stay behind for long. With
runners on second and third and two out in the bottom half of the seventh, Tyler
Kuhn ripped a shot down the firstt base line to score Abercrombie and Brock
Bond, who reached base on an infield single.
Mark Duper Dolphins Jersey. . “I got a slider down and in and was able to get it up high enough to get it over the first
basemans glove,” Kuhn said of his game-winning hit. “I dont turn on too many
balls down the line, so I was happy to get that one.” Mazzola then doubled to
score Kuhn. “The pitching held us in the game,” Abercrombie said. “We feel if
the pitching holds us in the game, were going to come back on anyone. We have a
lot of confidence in ourselves to go out and get it done.” Haerther led Winnipeg
with three hits, while Kuhn had two RBI. Buried in the comeback was Salamidas
record-setting night. He stuck out the first two batters he faced in the top of
the first to pass Ace Walker for the franchise strikeout record. Salamida struck
out six T-Bones in six innings of work and now has 385 Ks as a member of the
Goldeyes in five seasons with the team. Gabe Aguilar, who gave up Kansas Citys
go-ahead run in the seventh inning, swooped in to vultur his fifth win of the
season. Chris Kissock pitched the top of the ninth for his 10th save of the
season. Jared Messer took the loss for Kansas City. The Goldeyes will go for the
sweep Thursday night at Shaw Park. Nick Hernandez (4-0, 3.56) will toe the
rubber for Winnipeg against Kansas Citys Kyle DeVore (2-1, 2.29). Game time is 6
