Swedens Jesper Pettersson was suspended for one game by the IIHF early on Sunday and will miss the gold medal match against Finland. The defenceman was involved in a scrum against Russia as time ran out of the World Junior semifinal game on Saturday, which was won 2-1 by the host nation. Pettersson left penalty box at end of game and got involved as pushing and shoving broke out between the two teams. Emmitt Smith Youth Jersey .ca.

Michael Gallup Cowboys Jersey . -- John Senden never imagined it would take more than seven years to win again. Michael Gallup Womens Jersey . -- Andy Granatelli, the former CEO of STP motor oil company who made a mark on motorsports as a car owner, innovator and entrepreneur, has died.DENVER -- The last time he faced his former team, Peyton Mannings emotions and the Indianapolis Colts both got the best of him. Manning shouldnt be nearly as drained or distracted when the Colts visit Denver this weekend. Watch the game live on TSN1, TSN3, TSN4, TSN5 and TSN GO, tonight at 7pm et/4pm pt. Jim Irsay isnt getting under his skin with talk about how disappointed he was to win just one ring with Manning. And the five-time MVP doesnt have to trouble himself with a pregame tribute -- or Robert Mathis, for that matter. "Well, I think it was different last year going back to Indianapolis," Manning said coolly. In speaking with reporters in both Denver and Indianapolis during the week, Manning didnt elaborate on what it will be like facing his old team again. Instead, he segued right into what an honour it is to play in prime time. "They dont pick bad teams to open up NBC Sunday Night Football, " Manning said. "Theyre not paying all that money to the NFL to put bad teams on." No, but they did pick two teams that are dealing with lots of drama. Injuries have turned the Colts O-line into a turnstile. Indy is without Mathis, the leagues sacks leader last year with 19 1-2, including two of Manning. Mathis was suspended for the first four games for violating the leagues performance enhancing drug policy. "Hes in my opinion the best pass rusher in the NFL, and on top of that, a great leader, great teammate, great person," Andrew Luck said. The Broncos have two prominent players serving four-game banishments: receiver Wes Welker and Pro Bowl kicker Matt Prater, who combined to score 210 points last season. Prater violated the NFLs substance abuse policy by drinking alcohol in the off-season, forbidden since his 2011 DUI arrest, and Welker reportedly tested positive for amphetamine use in violation of the leagues rules forbidding performance-enhancing drugs. Welker has been the games top slot receiver for a decade and Prater was the leagues top kicker last year when he made all but one of his 26 field goal attempts, including a record-breaking 64-yarder. He also led the league by a wide margin with 81 touchbacks. Novice Brandon McManus replaces Prater and the Broncos will likely make up for Welkers absence with a healthy dose of speedy receiver Emmanuel Sanders and backup tight end Jacob Tamme, who restructured his contract Thursday, in the slot. Demaryius Thomas and Cody Latimer can also move inside, with Bubba Caldwell running sideline routes. "Of course were going to miss him," Sanders said. "Hes Wes Welker." If any team is built to weather a loss such as Welkers, however, its the Broncos. "Weve got great respect for Wes," Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. "But theyve got enough weapons for Peyton." Keep an eye on these other subplots Sunday night: SNAP DECISONS: If Khaled Holmes isnt ready, A.Q. Shipley could start against Denver a week after the Colts claimed the centre off waivers from Baltimore. Holmes returned to practice Wednesday for the first tiime since spraining his left ankle in the preseason opener.ddddddddddddBackup Jonotthan Harrison also practiced after missing all of last week with a right thumb injury. Left guard Jack Mewhort, promoted to starter when Donald Thomas tore his right quadriceps in training camp, has been dealing with a sore right knee. And two of the Colts most versatile backups, Xavier Nixon (knee) and Joe Reitz (ankle), also are hurt. "It does keep happening like a horror movie almost," Luck said. GETTING DEFENSIVE: After coming up one win short last season, Broncos GM John Elway spent more than $100 million on a defensive makeover that includes free agents DeMarcus Ware, T.J. Ward and Aqib Talib. Plus, Von Miller, Derek Wolfe, Chris Harris Jr., Rahim Moore and Quinton Carter have returned from injuries that sidelined them at the Super Bowl. "Despite all our offensive productivity and how special our offence is, this town loves our team to play great defence," said co-ordinator Jack Del Rio. "And I look forward to us bringing back some of that Orange Crush feel." Even if they create their own identity on defence, theyll always ride shotgun to Manning, suggested nose tackle Terrance Knighton. "With his resume, it really doesnt matter how good you are on defence," Knighton said. "Its always going to be about Peyton and that offence putting up NFL records on points and yards. We just want to get off the field, get a rhythm going and feed off of them." GETTING DEFENSIVE II: In Miller and Ware, the Broncos have one of the games premier pass-rushing duos. Ware was cut in a salary cap move by the Dallas Cowboys, where he was the franchise leader in sacks. Hes teaming up with Miller, whos coming off a trying year that began with a six-game drug suspension and ended with a torn ACL. Ware is also coming back from an injury-riddled season. Like Miller, he looks primed for a big year. "He doesnt look like a man that should have been cut," Colts tight end Dwayne Allen said. "... Hes playing at an incredibly high level: very active hands, very active feet, destroys tight ends." GETTING DEFENSIVE III: The Broncos are smarting over the timing of Welkers suspension, which came down Tuesday night after the Broncos had drawn up their blueprints for the Colts. "Im sure not sure they really care what I think, but sure, I would like to know maybe before we pick our roster," coach John Fox said. "Look, were disappointed in Wes and we respect the leagues ruling on suspensions. It happens to a lot of people. But I would have liked a little different kind of timing, but ... were moving on." GROUND GAMES: Both teams seek better balance on offence. Second-year bruiser Montee Ball leads a group of running backs in Denver thats never started an NFL game, and the Colts are counting on Trent Richardson to have a bounce-back year. "I think people are really going to enjoy watching him," Luck said. "I think he feels a lot more comfortable with everything." ' ' 'a confidence in the Whitecaps team that wasnt present in the opening forty-five minutes – a belief that they could not only compete with RSL, but also get something out of the game. Robinson again used his substitutes effectively, bringing Erik Hurtado, Nicolas Mezquida and Sebastian Fernandez into the game. And it was the two Uruguayans – Mezquida and Fernandez – who clawed back a point for Vancouver. Mezquida scored Vancouvers first goal in the 86th minute, knocking home a poor rebound from RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando after great work from Darren Mattocks. Fernandez scored the equalizer deep into stoppage time, ripping a strike from 35 yards past a flat-footed Rimando. The RSL goalkeeper – along with his teammates – will be left to ponder just how they managed to throw away two points after failing to extend their dominant first half performance into the second. The Positives The second half performance from Vancouver was exactly what their fans want to see – positive, confident, attacking play. The pace in Vancouvers team is frightening; Mattocks, Manneh and Hurtado are all likely in the leagues top 10, if not the top 5, in sprint speed. It is really about finding a way for these players to use their assets to maximum effect, which Vancouver did really well in the second half. Good performances from all three substitutes will give Robinson and his coaching staff some decisions to make in choosing their starting lineup for their next match at home on May 3rd against the San Jose Earthquakes (TSN2, 6:30pm ET, 3:30pm PT). It is an enviable problem to have, as every coach much prefers to have too many good players from which to choose than not enough. Real Salt Lake put on the best forty-five minutes of football that I have seen from a team so far this season in the opening half. The concern for Jeff Cassar is finding a way to extend that performance over the course of the game. While they havent found the secret to this yet, RSL is still unbeaten this season. The Negatives Poor performances all around for Vancouver in the opening half, but the silver lining is that this can be used as a teaching moment. With such a young squad of players, the biggest challenge for Robinson is to develop his promising youngsters into seasoned professionals who can solve problems on the pitch, without always requiring the intervention of the coaching staff. This isnt a job that will happen overnight, and the players will now be expected to reflect on what they did differently in the second half that they werent doing in the first. As long as the players are able to learn from their mistakes, the opening forty-five minutes can be looked back on as a valuable lesson. Nick Rimando has been sensational for Real Salt Lake this season, so he can be forgiven for having a 10-minute spell to forget at the end of the game. He should have prevented both of Vancouver goals, and on any other day would likely have done so. The Star Man This was the best performance I have seen from Erik Hurtado. The youngster has incredible speed, but is still learning how to best utilize his prized asset. He made a big impact coming off the bench in last weeks 2-2 come-from-behind draw with the Los Angeles Galaxy, and while he didnt score in that game or against Real Salt Lake, he made a very meaningful contribution on Saturday. His willingness to run in behind stretched the RSL back line and created space for his midfielders to operate, effectively changing the game. He is still very raw and has a great deal of learning to do, so it will be important for him to seek out the coaching staff to carry on that education. But he is certainly showing exciting potential at this moment in time as a second half substitute that can change the game. White Vapormax Womens Uk .

After being bounced from the Eastern Conference playoffs by Houston in each of the past two seasons, Sporting fell behind the Dynamo 1-0 in the third minute on Saturday night in the second leg of the Eastern Conference final. But with a first-half equalizer from C.J. Sapong and Dom Dwyers game-winner in the 63rd minute, Sporting advanced to its first MLS Cup Final since 2004 with a 2-1 victory. "We didnt panic," Dwyer said. "We kept on doing what we do, and we got the result we wanted. Were happy right now, but were very much focused on two weeks time. Were going to enjoy it, and its extra motivation to have MLS Cup at home." Kansas City will play host to either Portland or Real Salt Lake on Dec. 7. Sporting and the Dynamo played to a scoreless draw two weeks ago in the first leg of the conference final. Houston, the runner-up in 2011 and 2012, will miss the title game for the first time in three years. "I think as far as this series, we deserved it," Sporting manager Peter Vermes said. "We played smart and I think we showed real maturity. Three years ago I think we were very new to this when we played them in the same situation. We were very new, in everything.dddddddddddd I even think our fans were new to it. There was a lot of apprehension that year, but I think this year was very different. I think the players understood the task at hand. Even though they scored early, we never panicked." Houston midfielder Brad Davis acknowledged being disappointed to not make it back to a third straight final, but said it was an accomplishment for the Dynamo to get as far as they did after finishing fourth in the East during the regular season. "Its very difficult. Im unbelievably proud to be a part of this team," Davis said. "I feel like people were counting us out a long time ago and we kept plugging away. Thats what this team does." The Dynamo scored on a goal from Oscar Boniek Garcia, whose shot deflected off centre back Matt Besler after a pass from Davis. Sapong responded in the 14th minute, scoring from short range after Houston defender Bobby Boswell misplayed Graham Zusis through ball. Dwyers decisive goal came after a precise through ball from Benny Feilhaber, with Dwyer finishing low past Dynamo keeper Tally Hall. "That was one of the classier goals youll see," Hall said. "His cut and finish made for one of the better goals Ive seen this year." ' ' 's, a centre who doesnt have the blistering shot his dad, a Hall of Fame defenceman. Marr told MacInnis to expect questions from interviewing teams about how fast he can shoot. "I have no idea," said MacInnis, who hasnt tested his shot with a radar gun. Ryan MacInnis does have some of his dad in him, or at least the defensive awareness. And scouts watching notice the bloodline. "When you watch him wind up, he has a very similar style of wind-up," said Ross MacLean of the scouting service ISS Hockey. "The mechanical structure of it is very, very similar. Its certainly nowhere near the velocity or the heaviness that his father had, but that might come as he continues to mature." William Nylander, who played youth hockey in the United States before his family moved back to Sweden, will likely need time to mature. He was just five or six yearss old when Michael played for the Washington Capitals and invited Nicklas Backstrom over to their house.dddddddddddd. Lemieux still has good relationships with some of Claudes former teammates, including now-Colorado Avalanche vice-president Joe Sakic and coach Patrick Roy. When Brendan met with the Avalanche, Roy kept quiet and let the rest of his staff do the talking. The pre-draft interview that surprised Lemieux was with the Detroit Red Wings, who his father spent years tormenting as an agitator extraordinaire. Lemieux didnt think it would be a legitimate interview, especially with one of Claudes biggest rivals, Kris Draper, in the room. "I thought they were going to walk in, make a few jokes," Lemieux said. "They were extremely professional, they barely brought it up. I tried to joke about it, they werent even budging. They were extremely serious. I was really impressed. Id have no problem playing in Detroit after that interview, for sure." Thats if the Red Wings want a carbon copy of Claude Lemieux. Brendan knows the game has changed since his father sunk the Stanley Cup to the bottom of the familys pool in 2000 but doesnt want to deviate much from how Claude played. "I think I can still bring that maybe a little bit of old-school sandpaper to a power-forward type role," said Lemieux, who admires Dallas Stars pest Antoine Roussels game. "I think a lot of teams are looking for that edge." Ryan Donato hopes a team is looking for a two-way centre in the vein of Jonathan Toews or Patrice Bergeron. Ted Donato, who will be his sons coach at Harvard next season, mentored Bergeron during his final season with the Boston Bruins, which gave his son someone else to model practice habits on. As far as off-ice habits, Ryan might want to be like his dad. "One of my favourite (stories) was when Ray Bourque got up to go to the bathroom, I guess he took his shoes off for a second and my dad got two lobsters and put them in his shoes and he came back and he put his feet in his shoes and there were lobsters in there," Donato said. Daniel Audette, more of a passer than Donald, who scored 260 goals in his NHL career, has a favourite story about his dad that hell probably tell friends this weekend. "On his draft day when he was 19 years old, he didnt get drafted — he was in the last rounds and he was getting mad," Daniel recalled. "He was throwing chairs in the back of the rink. He really wanted to get drafted, I guess." Finally the Buffalo Sabres took Donald in the ninth round in 1989. Daniel wont have to wait nearly as long, as hes projected to go in the first three rounds. The same goes for Dominic Turgeon, who wants nothing more than to be just like Pierre. "He loves to protect the puck down low," Turgeon said. "Thats what I do all the time in the offensive zone, really use my body to my advantage and drive the puck to the net." But with the name Turgeon comes expectations. Its true for all nine prospects, whether they like it or not. Still, there are plenty of benefits, like making scouts look twice because of the pedigree. When they do, more often than not they can tell theres some extra polish. "They grew up around the game," Marr said. "I think thats the advantage that they have. Ryan MacInnis, hes a professional athlete at 17 years of age, but his hockey sense and his hockey IQ, you can see thats what hes got from his dad, the way he plays the game." --- Follow @SWhyno on Twitter.
