Chuck Bednarik Jersey . The judges scored it
48-47, 48-47, 49-46 for Jones (19-1). It was the champions closest call. Despite
the loss, it was a remarkable show by the confident Swedish challenger, who had
the best of the early rounds and then hung on in the fourth and fifth.
Vinny Curry Jersey . Following a lopsided 5-2
loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told
reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a
lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan
Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential
Center and addressing the players himself.
