lthough Detroit won, the Lions were held to a season-low 233 y

The Carolina Hurricanes have agreed to terms with defenceman Ron Hainsey on a three-year contract. Nike Air Max Plus Italia . The deal will pay Hainsey $3 million for the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons and $2.5 million in 2016-17. The 33-year-old Hainsey was one of two Hurricanes to play in all 82 games last season; his first with the team. The Bolton, CT, native totaled four goals and 11 assists, his best scoring totals since the 2010-11 season. Hainsey ranked second among Hurricanes in blocked shots (124) and third on the team in ice time per game (21:26) last season, and registered an even or better plus/minus rating in 14 consecutive games from Oct. 28-Nov. 27. Selected by the Montreal Canadiens in the first round, 13th overall, of the 2000 NHL Entry Draft, Hainsey has totaled 38 goals, 169 assists and 316 penalty minutes in 673 career NHL games with Montreal, Columbus, Atlanta, Winnipeg and Carolina. He notched his 200th career point with an assist on Riley Nashs goal against Nashville on Dec. 2, 2013. A product of the United States National Team Development Program, Hainsey spent two seasons at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell prior to turning professional. He has represented the United States at four major international tournaments: the 2009 IIHF World Championship, 2000 and 2001 World Junior Championships and 1999 U-18 World Junior Championship.

Jesus Navas bookended yet another huge home win for City by scoring after 14 seconds and again in second-half stoppage time, with Sergio Aguero also netting in each half to add to an own goal by Sandro and a brilliant strike by Alvaro Negredo. http://www.airmaxshoponlineitalia.it/scontate-kevin-durant-outlet.html . Ted Ligety, Mikaela Shiffrin, Bode Miller and Tim Jitloff underlined the squads enormous potential on the Rettenbach glacier in Austria.DETROIT - The Detroit Lions are one win from a post-season berth — and a division title is also within reach.We can taste it, man. Its right there in front of us, defensive lineman Jason Jones said.Coach Jim Caldwell doesnt want to hear that kind of talk.I hope hes talking about tasting practice next week, getting ready for the Bears, Caldwell said. Thats probably what it was. Ill clarify it for him.The Lions dont want to get too far ahead of themselves, but Sundays 16-14 victory over Minnesota put Detroit in a tie for first place in the NFC North. The Lions can clinch a playoff berth with a victory next weekend at Chicago, and no matter what happens in that game, Detroit will take the division if it wins at Green Bay the following week.For a while, it looked as if the Lions (10-4) might waste their opportunity to pull even with the Packers atop the division. Green Bay had already lost to Buffalo when Detroit spotted Minnesota a 14-0 lead, but the Lions rallied thanks to two second-quarter interceptions, and they finally took the lead on Matt Praters 33-yard field goal with 3:38 left in the fourth quarter.The Vikings (6-8) had the ball two more times, but by the end they were reduced to sending Blair Walsh out to try a 68-yard field goal on the games final play. It was short, and the Lions held on.The Lions have been through a lot of seasons where they havent been doing too good, said Jones, who is from nearby Southfield. I experienced it when I was younger, but just to be a part of this right now and what we can bring to this city, its so important right now. Our fans, they want it, we want it and were going to go back to work.Here are a few things about Detroits tight victory:Defence FIRST: The Lions didnt manage a first down until their fifth offensive possession, and they never totally solved the Minnesota defence, so it was up to Detrooits defence to keep the game close. Scarpe Air Max Plus In Offerta. Glover Quins second-quarter interception, which included a 56-yard return, set up the only touchdown of the game for the Lions.Darius Slay added another interception in the second quarter, and Detroit shut out the Vikings in the second half.BOUNCING BACK: Minnesota quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was sacked eight times in a loss to the Lions in October, and Detroit got to him four more times Sunday. The two interceptions were crucial, but Bridgewater went 31 of 41 for 315 yards and a touchdown.I think hes pretty resilient in really everything, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said. I thought offensively we had a pretty good plan against them. Our backs ran hard, we kept fighting for extra yards.CRUCIAL KICKS: In a remarkable reversal, the Lions won this game because of field goals. Prater made all three of his attempts, while Walsh missed from 53 and 68 and had a 26-yarder blocked by Jones in the fourth quarter.Detroit has missed 12 field goals this season, but most of those were before Prater joined the team in October.HELD IN CHECK: Although Detroit won, the Lions were held to a season-low 233 yards of offence. Detroit didnt do much better in its 17-3 win over Minnesota in October. The Lions had only 255 yards in that game.HAPPY AT HOME: The Lions finished 7-1 at home this regular season, the first time theyve managed that since 1995. By sweeping a three-game homestand against Chicago, Tampa Bay and Minnesota, theyve put themselves in a good position to reach the playoffs.These fans deserve the world for everything that theyve been through, centre Dominic Raiola said. Not only in this building with this team, but life in general being here in Detroit. Just some little positivity in everybodys world aint going to hurt.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
