said Impact sporting director Nick De Santis in a team release. "Its a very good

strong roster is well underway."

Peter Forsberg Avalanche Jersey .com) - Marylands Brad Craddock is the winner of the 2014 Lou Groza Award, given
annually to the countrys top kicker.RALEIGH, N.C. - Even as the lead quickly
grew to four goals, Matt Martin and the New York Islanders never felt
comfortable. It turned out they needed each of those goals — plus one more — to
finally beat the Carolina Hurricanes. Colin McDonald had two goals and an
assist, and Martin also scored twice for the New York Islanders, who held on for
a 5-4 victory on Tuesday night. "You could just tell it was going to be a bit of
a crazy game," Martin said. "Obviously, you never want to give up a 4-0 lead but
we held on and found a way to win." McDonald scored both of his goals in New
Yorks four-goal first period. Cal Clutterbuck and Martin also scored in the
burst that produced four goals in a span of 7:15. A combined 20 players had a
point in this matchup of the bottom two teams in the Metropolitan Division.
"Were not going to make the playoffs this year, but guys are fighting for jobs
for next year," McDonald said. Andrei Loktionov had a goal and an assist,
Jeff Skinner and Alexander Semin each scored power-play goals, and Nathan Gerbe
added a goal for Carolina, which fell to 5-10 since the Olympic break. Cam Ward
stopped six shots but allowed three goals before he was replaced by
Anton Khudobin 6:12 in. Khudobin made 21 saves. Anders Nilsson stopped 24 shots
for the Islanders, who are 13-4-1 in their last 18 road games and have won three
of four overall. Carolinas best chance to force overtime came when rookie
Elias Lindholm drew a holding penalty on Kevin Czuczman with 4:48 left. But
Nilsson caught Semins knuckling wrister with 2:55 to play. This game was a
fitting metaphor for an inconsistent season for the seventh-place Hurricanes —
who were both bad enough to fall into a 4-0 hole against the last-place
Islanders, yet good enough to come back. "The effort and the preparation hass
got to be better," veteran defenceman Jay Harrison said.
Tyson Barrie Avalanche Jersey. "Theres no excuse and theres no secret recipe. Thats the bottom line. Thats the only way."
Skinner started the rally 9 seconds into a delay-of-game penalty on
Johan Sundstrom, snapping the puck past Nilsson at 12:38 of the first. Loktionov
made it a two-goal game by beating the goalie from a tough angle 2:28 later.
When Semin struck from the wing on another power play 2:42 into the second to
make it 4-3, that deep deficit was nearly gone. Even after Martin put the
Islanders up 5-3 with 3:03 left in the second with his second goal — a slick
one-timer from between the circles — Gerbe made it a one-goal game 22 seconds
later when he scored from a tight angle. It was a stark reversal to the start,
when the Islanders built a four-goal lead in less than 11 minutes. But maybe not
a surprise for Carolina — which has been outscored 61-37 in first periods this
season. "You cant come out and spot a team four goals in the first period and
think youre going to come back and win the hockey game," Carolina coach
Kirk Muller said. "Its a mystery why we come out so hesitant and afraid to play
in the first period." McDonald stuffed the puck past Ward 3:39 in and then
chased him when he made it 3-0 at 6:12. Khudobin took over, but by the time he
lost track of the puck and Martin whacked it into an open net at 10:54, the
Islanders appeared on their way to an easy win. "I think we knew they were going
to come back and push back," Martin said. NOTES: D Thomas Hickey and C
Ryan Strome had two assists apiece for New York. ... C Jordan Staal had two
assists for Carolina, which had won each of the previous three meetings by one
goal. ... Before the game, the Hurricanes reassigned D Ryan Murphy to their AHL
affiliate in Charlotte.
