Wholesale Nike Shoes Black Friday .Sceviour scored three goals -- one at even strength, one on the power play and one short-handed -- for his first NHL hat trick and added an assist to lead the Florida Panthers to a 5-2 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday.That was exciting; I cant even remember the last hat trick I scored, Sceviour said. I cant take too much credit, though. I think all three goals were shots from the blue (the crease).Florida coach Gerard Gallant said Sceviour deserved everything he got.Hes a smart veteran player who is getting more ice time, and hes taking advantage, Gallant said. He works hard every day, so it was good to see him have a career night like this.Vincent Trocheck had a goal and an assist and Jonathan Marchessault also scored for Florida. James Reimer made 34 saves.It was huge to get this win after the three losses on this trip, Gallant said. We were able to turn around the way we were playing.

Peter Mrazek stopped six of the 10 shots before being replaced by Jimmy Howard in the second period. Howard finished with 13 saves.Not good enough in the first. We didnt compete hard enough. We didnt execute well enough, so when you get yourself down 3-0, youre digging yourself out, Detroit coach Jeff Blashill said.

It was Marchessaults sixth goal.Bad first. I thought they really came in and took charge again, something that we got to be better at, Detroit captain Henrik Zetterberg said. I thought in the second we got back into it, worked ourselves into the game and kept on going in the third, too, but a little too late.Larkins power-play goal put the Red Wings on the scoreboard at 2:36 of the second as he beat Reimer with a one-timer from the right circle for his third goal.Trocheck restored the three-goal margin 2:26 later on a snap shot from the inside edge of the left circle off the rush.

"Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. CHICAGO -- With an eye on October, the Chicago Cubs will continue with a six-man rotation this month as lefty Mike Montgomery will remain a starter despite the return of John Lackey from the disabled list.Just trying to keep guys fresh for the rest of the year, manager Joe Maddon said before Sundays game against the San Francisco Giants. Its no more complicated than that.Montgomery will take his next turn in the rotation on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers, giving the starters six days off between outings which includes an off-day on Thursday. The Cubs are taking no chances with their top arms as they prepare for up to three rounds of postseason baseball.Last year we saw it right before our eyes with Jake [Arrieta], Maddon said. The jump he encountered and what it meant at the end of last season.Its well documented how Arrieta hit a wall last year in the NLCS against the New York Mets after increasing his workload from the year before. The Cubs can be conservative with their starters as a result of their double-digit lead in their division.Right now, throughout the industry youre hearing about fatigue and people being skipped and all that stuff, Maddon said. Right now our starters aare pitching as well as they have all year. Nike Shoes Black Friday 2019. I would like to think if we continue along this path well keep that freshness about them.The one obstacle Maddon knows hell run into is with his veteran pitchers. They dont necessarily like being pushed back extra days. Jon Lester, in particular, judges his season on whether he pitches 200 innings more than any other statistic. He has reached that number seven times in his career, needing 31 innings this year to hit that plateau.You run into a lot of regular starters that dont like that because theyve been trained not to like that, Maddon said. Under Maddons plan Lester should have four starts remaining, and he would need to average over seven innings per start to reach 200. Thats not likely to happen. Maddon believes preparing for a World Series run will trump individual accomplishments.At that point I think theyll pretty happy, the manager stated. If you have someone you like in the 6-hole it makes it easier ... At the end of the day theyve been trained to think a certain way. I get it .I totally get it. ' ' '
