excellent but thats what happens against
lebaobei123 Routinier Posts: 1507	# 12.09.2016 - 03:13:50     zitieren UNIONDALE, N.Y. -- The New York Islanders were close to ending their five-game losing streak. But Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals found a win to get their second win in two days. Ovechkins overtime winner came after Nicklas Backstrom tied the game with a short-handed score with 49 seconds left in the third period to lift the Capitals to a 3-2 victory over the Islanders on Saturday. Ovechkins 21st goal at 2:07 of overtime gave Washington the victory and improved its record to 14-11-2. The Capitals also had a strong game from goaltender Braden Holtby, who made 37 saves. "We were lucky at the end and then we got it done in overtime," Washington coach Adam Oates said. "At the end of the day, you want to do the right things out there and we did." The Islanders seemed poised for their first win since Nov. 16 after Thomas Vanek gave them a 2-1 lead with just under two minutes left. Vanek scored his eighth of the season when he flipped the puck past Holtby from in close at 18:09 as linemates John Tavares and Kyle Okposo assisted. The one-goal lead appeared safe but it wasnt to be as Capitals defenceman Mike Green took an interference penalty at 18:50. The ensuing play went into the Islanders end where Backstrom took a pass from Jason Chimera, then managed to slide the puck past Islanders goaltender Anders Nilsson for his sixth of the season to knot the score at 2. "It was a great pass by Chimmer that landed on my tape," Backstrom said. "It really felt great for me because it was a tight game between two good teams. It was felt good that we came back, a great win for us." Nilsson was making his first start for the Islanders this season after Kevin Poulin had lost the previous five games. Starter Evgeni Nabokov was injured early in the Nov. 16th game against Detroit. The Islanders won that game in a shootout with Poulin in relief but they havent won since. Aaron Volpattis score at 8:58 of the middle period put Washington ahead 1-0. Tom Wilson and Martin Erat assisted on his second goal of the season. The Islanders dictated much of the pace against the Capitals. They outshot Washington 15-9 in the first period and 12-10 in the second, a day after a 5-0 home loss to Detroit. Cal Clutterbucks short-handed breakaway goal at 3:59 of the third woke up the crowd at Nassau Coliseum. Clutterbuck broke in alone on Holtby and beat the goaltender to the glove side for his third of the season. Both goaltenders continued their sharp play until Vaneks goal broke the tie. The Islanders have been on a spiral since beating Boston at home on Nov. 2 to improve to 6-5-3. They are 2-10-1 since and 4-11-1 since they traded Tavares left wing Matt Moulson and two draft picks to Buffalo for Vanek on Oct. 27. Islanders coach Jack Capuano remained upbeat following the loss. "Guys worked hard tonight. I thought they were focused and this was a step in the right direction," he said. "It came down to special teams. Its just very frustrating that it had to end this way." The Islanders and Capitals play close games, as 17 of the past 25 games between them have been decided by one goal. Washington is 13-1-3 in those games. The Caps are 17-5-3 against the Islanders since the start of the 2007-08 season, including their 6-2 over New York on Nov. 5 at Verizon Center. The Islanders next host Pittsburgh on Tuesday before a five-game trip against top Western Conference teams St. Louis, Los Angeles, Anaheim, San Jose and Phoenix. For a club that reached the playoffs last season for the first time since 2007, the season is at an early crossroads. "We have to believe in one another and stick with it," Capuano said. Calvin de Haan made his season debut for the Islanders. The 22-year-old defenceman was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Thanksgiving. A first round pick -- 12th overall -- in 2009, he previously had played only one game for the Islanders in December 2011. Notes: The Capitals recalled goaltender Philipp Grubauer from AHL Hershey to replace backup Michal Neuvirth, who stepped on puck during warmup on Friday and missed his scheduled start. ... Washington also recalled defenceman Dmitry Orlov from Hershey, sending down centre Michael Latta. ... The Capitals were without defencemen John Erskine (knee) and Jack Hillen (fractured tibia). ... The Islanders continued to be without defencemen Lubomir Visnovsky (concussion) and Brian Strait (upper body). Matt Darr Jersey . Louis.Bochy said before Sundays regular-season finale against San Diego that he felt comfortable with Bumgarner or Jake Peavy on the mound. But given Bumgarners success the last few years, he said I dont think there was any question who you pitch that game. Larry Csonka Dolphins Jersey . "It was one of the best shows ever," said the Raptors guard, disagreeing with the critics. "Its really what people wanted to see. You couldnt see those dunks without three players on the court so it worked out for the best I think. dolphinsteamauthenticshop.com/c-5-dolphins-larry-csonka-jersey.aspx. The above paragraph could be rewritten, verbatim, with Marcus Stromans name in place of Romeros. After both men had disastrous outings in Tuesdays 18-4 mauling at the hands of the Tigers, its clear that neither is the best option to begin the season in Toronto.

NORWICH, England -- Ryan Giggs marked his 900th appearance for Manchester United by grabbing an injury-time winner in a 2-1 victory over Norwich on Sunday, keeping the champions in touch with leader Manchester City in the Premier League title race. Giggs met Ashley Youngs deep cross with a deft volley with the outside of his left foot to restore the two-point gap to City, which dispatched Blackburn 3-0 on Saturday. "An amazing career and an amazing man," United manager Alex Ferguson said of Giggs. "But we were lucky today. Norwich were the better team." Another veteran midfielder, the 37-year-old Paul Scholes, put United in the lead in the seventh minute but striker Grant Holts left-foot strike in the 83rd looked to have dented the visitors title charge. With Wayne Rooney missing the game due to a throat infection, United relied on its old guard to get the team out of trouble, with the 38-year-old Giggs showing his enduring class not just with his winner but his overall performance at Carrow Road. "Its incredible for Ryan to mark his 900th game witth the winning goal with the last kick of the ball -- he deserves it for his service to the club," Ferguson said.dddddddddddd "For a player to play for one club for 900 games is exceptional and it wont be done again." United should have had the game wrapped up well before Giggs late intervention. England striker Danny Welbeck was the main culprit, wasting three gilt-edged chances in the second half with just goalkeeper John Ruddy to beat. Giggs also struck the crossbar with a volley from Phil Jones cross in the 72nd but the former Wales winger had the last laugh. "We were excellent but thats what happens against United. Theyve done that for years and years," Norwich manager Paul Lambert said. "We were running on empty at the end but we put in a massive effort. There is nothing to be ashamed of -- we gave a really good account of ourselves." Scholes goal was his second in the league since coming out of retirement, nodding home from close range after a centre from Nani eluded both Welbeck and United striker Javier Hernandez.
