GLENDALE Womens Luke Kunin Jersey , Ariz. (AP) — seven goals to the strains of “Werewolves of London,” Arizona took a bite out of Tampa Bay in a 7-1 victory Saturday.And a Coyotes‘ team that was shut out in three of its first four games has gravitated to the other extreme, scoring 22 goals in the last five games while winning three in a row and four of five to reach .500 of the first time this season.Michael Grabner scored two short-handed goals, Brad Keller scored his fifth goal of the season and Vinnie Hinostroza scored his third in support of Antta Raanta, who made 29 saves in his first game back after missing previous two with flu-like symptoms.“A lot of games we lost, we played really, good structured hockey ” Grabner said. “We just weren’t scoring. Now the puck is going in for a lot of guys, and it is easier to be confident out there with the puck.”Jordan Oesterle, Derek Stepan and Richard Panik scored their first goals of the season for the Coyotes, who broke the Lightning’s seven-game points streak.Adam Erne scored his first goal of the season to break Raanta’s shutout at 9:27 of the third period.Tampa Bay (7-2-1), which had not lost since falling to Vancouver in the second game of the season, was playing its fifth game in eight days while finishing a five-game road trip.“You look on your schedule and this probably sets up as a tough one for us,” Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said.“Can’t predict it’d be a 7-1 tough one for us. We weren’t our best tonight, that was clear.”Oesterle, Keller and Stepan scored in the first 13 minutes of the first period as the Coyotes scored three of their first five shots. It was 5-0 after two periods.“They were a tired club and we had energy tonight Marcus Foligno Jersey ,” said Arizona coach Rich Tocchet, adding of the early burst, “It loosens guys up. When you get a couple of shots in early, the guys feel a little calmer on the bench.“When you are not scoring, that is when people get tight. You could feel the bench was real loose.”Arizona’s fifth goal came on Grabner’s first short-handed score at 11:48 of the second period. He added another at 8:59 of the third.The Coyotes lead the NHL with five short-handed goals and have given up only three power plays goals in 28 chances after killing four of Tampa Bay’s five power plays.“We have chemistry, reading off each other to make plays,” Grabner said. “Right now we are getting chances. For me, the main focus is to kill off the penalty and maybe change momentum.”Lightning goalie Louis Domingue made 23 saves in his first game against his former team.Brad Richardson and Alex Goligoski had two assists apiece and Raanta had one. Raanta has three career assists, the last while with the Rangers in 2016-17.The turnaround has not taken the Coyotes by surprise.“We were still OK with the way we were playing (early in the season), we just couldn’t score,” Goligoski said. “That’s caught up to us now.NOTESCoyotes: Goalie Antti Raanta returned after missing the previous two games with flu-like symptoms.Lightning: Defenseman Victor Hedman, who won the Norris Trophy last season, did not play and is expected to miss at least a week after suffering an upper body injury in the second period of a 3-2 victory at Las Vegas on Friday.UP NEXTCoyotes: Host Ottawa on Tuesday in the third game of a five-game homestand.Lightning: Host New Jersey on Tuesday. LAS VEGAS (AP) — With the city reeling from the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, Golden Knights defenseman Deryk Engelland delivered an emotional 58-second speech last October that continues to echo through Las Vegas today.Engelland’s address came days after the Oct. 1 massacre during a pregame ceremony honoring victims and first responders. It ended with the reassurances: “We’ll do everything we can to help you and our city heal. We are Vegas strong.”As the one-year anniversary of the massacre on the Las Vegas Strip that left 58 dead approaches, Vegas’ beloved NHL team remains very much a part of the healing process http://www.officialwild.com/authentic-adidas-matt-dumba-jersey , true to Engelland’s words.“Anything like that happens, you definitely want to keep helping the process of the healing,” Engelland said following a recent preseason game as the Knights prepared for their second season. “I think last year was a good stepping stone and I think we can still do more this year.”The Golden Knights, who became a rallying point for many residents after the shooting, will make their way around town Monday, with several players and team personnel visiting command and dispatch centers for police and other first responders and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority for a blood drive.“Being from here, you want to do as much as you can for the community you call home,” Engelland said. “I think every guy in this room wants to do what they can for Las Vegas. A lot of guys are going to be calling this home for a long time. We got a lot of great leaders in here that step up and do a lot of good things. We just try to help each other out and do whatever we can for the community.”Lifelong Vegas resident Tina Cartwright, who was at the outdoor concert when the gunman opened fire from a room in the Mandalay Bay casino-resort, said it took a long time for her to attend a crowded event after the shooting, during which she remembers running her life. It was a Golden Knights game that brought her back to enjoying her social life.“They gave me hope, because I didn’t want to go out in crowds and put myself in that position where I wasn’t close to an exit,” said Cartwright, 47. “I didn’t want to go out right away, so they were an immediate part of the healing process. I have friends who still won’t go to concerts or big gatherings Mikael Granlund Jersey , and I think the longer you wait it can be detrimental. They just gave us something to look forward to in times that were dark.”Knights newcomer Max Pacioretty was with the Montreal Canadiens last season but said he remembers the shooting vividly. He said it was tough to watch on television. But he said watching the Knights from afar as they helped with the recovery process helped him see how special the team had become to the community.They had become much more than the town’s first major sports franchise, and much more than a team embarking on an inaugural campaign that would end in the Stanley Cup Final.“It’s something I feel that this community will never forget, and it’s a big reason why there’s such good chemistry between the fans and the city and this team,” Pacioretty said. “I feel as if people didn’t really know what to expect, what type of people and human beings hockey players are in a general spectrum. But I think they learned real quick. As soon as they knew that they were going to have to help this community overcome what they were going through, you saw them step up to the occasion right away.”During each home game last season, the Golden Knights recognized the Vegas Strong Hero of the Game, a first responder or citizen who risked his or her own life during the shooting to aid others. Engelland would talk to those heroes after the games.In September, Engelland and his family announced the Vegas Born Heroes Foundation. The mission of the foundation is to publicly recognize and reward charities and community members who consistently and selflessly help others to benefit the city.“It’s been an honor to honor those people who sacrificed their lives or made it out of there,” Engelland said. “We still talk to a lot of them here and there. We wanted to start our foundation and kind of branch a little bit away from that but not completely. Those first responders, we wanted to grow it and make it the heroes around Las Vegas that do the little things that might go unnoticed.”Unnoticed, until now.作者: martina28043 時間: 2021-8-28 14:52
