The central figures in Parramattas systemic cheating of the salary cap have hurt
rugby leagues reputation, NRL chief executive Todd Greenberg says.

Nike Air Max Classic BW .Five Parramatta officials have been banned
from the game in the wake of the Eels rorting the NRL salary cap.They include
chairman Steve Sharp, a premiership-winning player for the club during a
167-game career for the Eels.As well as deregistering the five officials,
Parramatta will lose 12 competition points and have been fined $1 million for
salary cap breaches dating back to the 2013 NRL season.These five officials have
damaged the game, Greenberg said during a media conference to confirm the NRLs
penalties would stand.They have damaged the club and theyve let their fans
down.Let me say this is not an easy call to make, especially for someone like
Steve Sharp.Greenberg said the NRL would now take a closer interest in the
operations of the Parramatta club.The NRL has deliberately decided not to
intervene in the affairs of the club while this investigation has been under way
but that changes now, he said.We want to see a strong board and we will do all
we can to facilitate that.We will be calling on the board, and working with the
members, to install a management team which sets the club on the right path for
the future.Deputy chairman Tom Issa, club director Peter Serrao, chief executive
John Boulous and football manager Daniel Anderson have also had their
registrations cancelled.The overall impression that I got from the responses is
that no one at the club has taken responsibility for the deliberate, systemic
and blatant breaches of the salary cap, Greenberg said.... we have to take a
strong stand to preserve the integrity of the salary cap and the
competition.Parramatta moved into the NRL top four on Friday night with a
come-from-behind win over the Sydney Roosters.But Saturdays decision leaves the
Eels in 12th place on the premiership table with 12 competition points and they
are now all but out of contention for this years finals series.

Two pressure cooker bombs exploded near the finish line of the April 15 race in

The New Jersey Devils replaced their best player, with one of the NHLs greatest
of all time. Less than two weeks after the stunning defection of Ilya Kovalchuk
back to Russia, the Devils signed two-time Stanley Cup winner and former NHL MVP
Jaromir Jagr to a one-year, $2 million contract on Tuesday. There is no doubt
that that the 41-year-old Jagr is in the twilight of his career, and he
certainly will never fill the void left by Kovalchuk, who decided to retire from
the NHL at 30 so he can play in his native Russia. For now though, Jagr gives
general manager Lou Lamoriello and the Devils a proven scorer who works hard up
front, and can play on the power play. "I watched him play the last couple of
years and I have never seen someone work so hard," Lamoriello said in a
telephone interview with the Associated Press. "We know where he is in his
career. He brings something. Everyone who has played with him the last couple of
years and also the coaches have been complimentary toward everything he has
done. There is no question he can help us on the power play. "He is a
well-conditioned athlete and we are happy with what he is going to bring." Jagr
split last season with the Dallas Stars and Boston Bruins, scoring a combined 16
goals and 19 assists in 45 games. The NHLs active leading scorer added 10
assists in helping the Bruins reach the Stanley Cup final, but he did not score
a post-season goal. He signed with Dallas last summer, and started the year
playing in Europe due to the NHL lockout. The 16 regular-season goals would have
led the Devils last season and his 35 points would have been one behind team
leader Patrik Elias. "He is still a top six forward," Lamoriello said.
Kovalchuk, who walked away from $77 million left on a contract that he signed in
2010, had 11 goals and 20 assists in a season limited to 37 games mostly by a
shoulder injury. Jagr had told his agent, Petr Svoboda, a former NHL defenceman,
that he wanted to stay in the Eastern Conference. "There was only one thing on
my mind, I wanted to stay in the NHL," Jagr said,, adding Russias KHL was not an
option.

Kovalchuk, the Devils also lost forward David Clarkson to Toronto via free
agency. Last summer, they lost captain Zach Parise to Minnesota in free agency
after New Jersey advanced to the Stanley Cup final. Lamoriello has tried to fill
the holes up front, signing free-agent forwards Ryane Clowe and Michael Ryder
away from the New York Rangers and Phoenix Coyotes, respectively. He also
re-signed Elias and fellow forward Dainius Zubrus and defenceman Marek Zidlcky.
Jacob Josefson has a new contract, and fellow restricted free-agent centre
Adam Henrique also is close to a new deal. On NHL draft day, June 30, New Jersey
also acquired goaltender Cory Schneider from Vancouver. "We like our team right
now," Lamoriello said. "Certainly our goaltending is improved. Our defence is
improved because of the experience of the young guys and up front we are going
to be a four-line team. We have power-play people and penalty killers. This will
be one of the bigger teams weve had in size." Jagr has 681 goals and 1,007
assists in 1,391 career regular-season games with Pittsburgh, Washington, the
Rangers, Philadelphia, Dallas and Boston. He won Stanley Cups with Pittsburgh in
1990-91 and 1991-92 as well as the league MVP in 1998-99. Jagr will wear his
famous No. 68 with New Jersey. In the Lamoriello era, only three non-goaltenders
have ever worn jersey numbers higher than No. 34 in their history --
Doug Gilmour (93), Alexander Mogilny (89) and Stephane Richer (44). A native of
the Czech Republic, Jagr is entering his 20th NHL season. He ranks 34th all-time
in games played, tenth in goals, 12th in assists and eighth in points. Among
current NHL players, he ranks first in goals, assists and points, and second in
games played. Jagr has played for three teams -- Flyers, Stars and Bruins --
since returning to the NHL in 2011 after a brief stay in the KHL. Kovalchuk will
play for SKA St. Petersburg next season, the same team that Jagr played for
during the lockout, being chosen their captain.
