导出博客文章LOS ANGELES -- Although the San Jose Sharks and the Los Angeles Kings have one of the NHLs liveliest rivalries, the ice has been tilted decidedly toward the north in the past 14 months.
Damontae Kazee Jersey .Particularly when the clubs meet down south at Staples Center, where the Sharks have made themselves at home.Logan Couture had two goals and an assist, Ryan Carpenter scored his first NHL goal and San Jose extended its recent mastery over the Kings with a 4-1 victory Wednesday night.Kevin Labanc also scored and Martin Jones made 26 saves against his former team in the Pacific Division-leading Sharks fifth win in six games. Couture and Carpenter scored 30 seconds apart in the final minute of the first period, and Los Angeles couldnt recover from that defensive lapse.Anytime we play LA, theres no speeches needed, San Jose coach Peter DeBoer said. We know its going to be a hard game, and our guys respond to the challenge.They also make themselves at home in downtown Los Angeles. The Sharks won at Staples Center for the sixth consecutive time, including three playoff victories last spring.San Jose ousted the Kings in the first round on the way to the Stanley Cup Final, and the Sharks control over their oldest rival has continued this fall with two regular season victories.They play tough in this building, Couture said. They come out with energy. Theyre physical. Theyre big. Theyre strong. Theyre difficult to play against, (but) this is how we played last year down the stretch and into the playoffs. We get up on teams, (and) its tough for teams to come back. We defend well, and (Jones) makes big saves and we walk out with the win.Couture, who sharply criticized the Kings and Norris Trophy-winning defenseman Drew Doughty last year after their playoff series ended, added an empty-net goal. He has only two multipoint games this year -- and both were against the Kings.Doughty tried and failed to keep Coutures late clearance from settling in the Kings empty net.I saw the replay and got a little chuckle out of it, Couture said. Hes a special player, a guy I see all the time in the summer. Its always fun to play the best players in the world, and its fun we get to play him all the time.Dustin Brown scored for the Kings, whose five-game winning streak ended with another frustrating night against their upstate rivals. Peter Budaj stopped 20 shots in Los Angeles first home loss in seven games since Nov. 1.We know theyre a good team, Gaborik said. It was a tight game out there at times, but they had a few odd-man rushes which we normally dont give up. Hopefully our game will get better and better.After Labanc converted Coutures pass on a 2-on-1 break to open the scoring, Couture got his team-leading eighth goal in the final minute of the Sharks three-goal first period.Carpenter, an AHL All-Star last season while leading San Joses top affiliate in scoring, found the net in his fourth NHL game over two seasons -- although Budaj probably should have stopped the shot between his legs.Joel Ward had two assists in the sequence for the Sharks.Brown finally got the Kings on the board early in the second period, roofing a rebound of Gaboriks shot during a power play for his fourth goal.Game notes Gaborik played his second game of the season and got his first regular season point since Feb. 12. He missed Los Angeles first 21 games with a broken foot. ... San Jose beat Los Angeles 2-1 on opening night at the Shark Tank. ... Los Angeles had the previous three days off. D Matt Greene returned to the lineup and Tom Gilbert was scratched.UP NEXTSharks: Host Canadiens on Friday night.Kings: At Coyotes on Thursday night.

http://www.cheapfalconsjerseysauthentic.com/?tag=authentic-desmond-trufant-jersey . By having more great seasons. Manning was the only unanimous choice for the 2013 Associated Press NFL All-Pro team Friday. The grey clouds threatening to explode on a Friday afternoon were unlikely to deter a group of Indian players undergoing a recovery session at the sea-facing swimming pool in Visakhapatnam. In that group were Virat Kohli, Axar Patel - not quite there yet - and Hardik Pandya, the face, or abs, of Indias new-age ripped cricketers, with the athletic bodies toned and double-toned to destroy fat.Another man arrived to settle down on the outdoor chaise lounge, one of the few who still had his training jersey and shorts on. Rohit Sharma cast a sage-like gaze at the group bonding over the session before getting up, slowly, to join Amit Mishra at the coffee table. As he stirred his brew, he threw another benign look in the direction of the pool.Technically, Rohit is a part of Indias new-gen brat pack: he is, after all, only a year-and-a-half older than Kohli. While Rohit wears a beard - like yo-yo and skin-fold tests, this seems to be standard protocol within the team these days - he neither does crew cuts nor transforms into a manic ball of inferno on the field. He does not deliver rousing sermons on how to succeed by being boring. He is a modern athlete and a fine fielder to boot, but he sets his own pace, in his own style.****With the series in balance at 2-2, MS Dhoni wins the toss but veers away from the chase-first strategy on a slow, dry pitch that looks like it will slow down further, a pitch on which only 70 will come in the last 10 overs. The openers depart from routine, too; like in Ranchi, Ajinkya Rahane takes first strike and not Rohit. In the first two overs, Rohit leans on his bat and watches Rahane gently smack two fours, in the middle of playing out a number of dot balls.Its difficult to tell from Rohits perennial I-know-what-Im-doing expression if he is restless to feel bat on ball as quickly as possible. Rohit later said he was disappointed with his scores in the series going into the decider, especially as he hadnt faced more than 20 balls in any innings. Actually, he had played more than 20 balls in three of the four matches, but had not scored more than 15. This, though, is the decider, and Rohit knows how it is done in deciders. He did it in Bangalore, Sydney and Port of Spain, but failed in Mumbai last year. He has a record to straighten, a reputation to keep.In Visakhapatnam, Rohit faces his first delivery only in the third over. After three dot balls, a hesitant push almost carries to the slips. While it is fortunate the ball doesnt carry, it is also a sign there is hardly any pace to work with on this pitch. The next delivery, he creates the pace he needs by purposefully, yet almost stealthily, striding down the pitch to Tim Southee, and slams the ball over mid-off.
Devin Gray Jersey. In the next four overs, as Rahane struggles to pick the gaps in the field, Rohit faces only seven deliveries. By the end of the ninth, India are 39 for 0, and the strike-distribution remains skewed: Rahane has faced 38 balls to Rohits 16. Two balls later, however, Rahane is out. The fielding restrictions are lifted four balls later, and finding boundaries is about to get harder.Once Kohli arrives, the strike is rotated more freely, but runs are still hard to come by. Rohit, though, has decided to take charge. In the 12th over, James Neesham bowls a short, slow off-cutter, and Rohit, giving himself a solid base, clobbers him from the crease over mid-off for six. This is just a back-foot off drive. This is not supposed to carry all the way for six. As Kohli gawks at the shot, Rohit reciprocates with a cheeky wink. There are not going to be many manic, Kohli-esque singles and twos; this is Mr Smooth at work.Rohit smuggles as many runs as he can, realising it will be difficult later, probably factoring in the lessons from Mumbai Indians struggles on this ground in the IPL this year. He targets Ish Sodhi, and is unforgiving with his pulls, cuts and slog sweeps.Just as he nears his fifty, Rohit has to dive to complete a quick single. He appears to have twanged his quadriceps, and his right thigh is heavily taped. Unfortunately, just when he looks set to explode from a slow start, just when he looks like he can neutralise a slow track with his clean striking, Rohit is forced to play low-percentage cricket because every single he runs is hurting him, every strain on his body an injury risk. He goes after Sodhi again, for another round of cutting and slog-sweeping.Eventually his innings ends at 70, but it is 70 at higher than a run a ball on a slow pitch where even Kohli struggles for fluency, where New Zealand are bowled out for 79. This has come just in time to redeem an ordinary series for Rohit, just in time to provide a counter-argument to the notion that India are becoming a one-batsman team. This is no barn-storming double-hundred but by taking the pitch out of equation, Rohit does enough to throw New Zealand out of gear and set things up for the middle order. He does it not as much with muscle as with liquid, casual charm. The Rohit way.
