Caps take down Isles, ex-coach Trotz
November 26, 2018
By The Associated Press

NEW YORK (AP) Tom Wilson scored twice, Braden Holtby stopped 32 shots and the Washington Capitals beat the New York Islanders and former coach Barry Trotz 4-1 Monday night for their season-high sixth straight win.

Nic Dowd and Alex Ovechkin also scored for Washington, which won after giving up the first goal for the fifth time during its win streak that has catapulted the defending champions to first place in the Metropolitan Division.

Valtteri Filppula scored and Thomas Greiss finished with 20 saves for the Islanders, who lost for the third time in five games.

Trotz was facing the Capitals for first time since leading them to the franchise's first Stanley Cup title in June. Trotz also guided Washington to the Presidents' Trophy for the league's best record in 2015-16 and 2016-17 and then resigned in a contract dispute and subsequently signed with Islanders.

Todd Rierden - who was on Trotz's staff during his four years in Washington, including the last two as associated head coach - then took over.

RANGERS 4, SENATORS 2

NEW YORK (AP) - Marc Staal, Lias Andersson, Chris Kreider, and Mika Zibanejad scored, and Henrik Lundqvist made 29 saves for New York.

The Rangers extended their dominance at Madison Square Garden, improving to 8-1-0 at home in their last nine games.

Mark Stone scored twice, Brady Tkachuk had two assists and Craig Anderson stopped 29 shots for Ottawa, which fell to 2-8-1 in road games this season.

BLUE JACKETS 7, RED WINGS 5

DETROIT (AP) - Pierre-Luc Dubois scored two goals as Columbus raced to a three-goal lead in the first period and held on for the win.

Josh Anderson, Artemi Panarin, Markus Nutivaara, Boone Jenner and Seth Jones also scored for Columbus. Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 27 shots for the Blue Jackets, who had lost two of three.

Detroit rallied with three straight goals and pulled within one twice in the third period.

Anthony Mantha had two goals and Dennis Cholowski, Mike Green, Gustav Nyquist also scored for Detroit.

Jimmy Howard gave up three goals on 16 shots in the first period and was replaced by Jonathan Bernier, who finished with 12 saves.

Detroit has lost three straight after winning six of seven.

PANTHERS 4, DEVILS 3, OT

SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) - Mike Hoffman scored 1:28 into overtime to lift Florida.

With their goalie pulled for an extra skater, the Panthers tied it 3-all on Jonathan Huberdeau's 100th career goal with 1:29 left in the third period. Huberdeau also had two assists.

Aleksander Barkov added a goal and an assist, and Jared McCann also scored for Florida. James Reimer stopped 29 shots.

Jesper Bratt, Blake Coleman and Miles Wood scored for the Devils. Keith Kinkaid made 30 saves, and Sami Vatanen had two assists.

MAPLE LEAFS 4, BRUINS 2

TORONTO (AP) - Mitch Marner had three assists and Patrick Marleau added another in his 1,600th NHL game to lead Toronto to the win in the 672nd meeting between the two Original Six teams in a rivalry that dates to 1924.

Travis Dermott, Igor Ozhiganov, Josh Leivo and Zach Hyman scored for Toronto (17-8-0).

David Pastrnak, who had a hat trick in a 5-1 win over Toronto on Nov. 10, scored twice for Boston (13-7-4).

This week's NHL betting predictions
Monty Andrews

A Perfect 10?

The Buffalo Sabres will look to tie a franchise record against the visiting San Jose Sharks on Tuesday, as they seek their 10th consecutive victory. The Sabres' nine-game run has lifted them to sole possession of third place in the overall NHL standings entering the week ? but Tuesday's encounter could be a difficult one, with the Sharks having won each of the previous four meetings. That said, San Jose is just 1-4 in its last five road games and has just three wins in its past 14 games in Buffalo.

Flames' Offense is on Fire

The Calgary Flames have rediscovered their offense ? and it is paying major dividends heading into Wednesday's tilt with the visiting Dallas Stars. The Flames are averaging 4.6 goals over their previous five games, despite being shut out 2-0 by the Vegas Golden Knights in that span. And they're going to need some of that punch against Dallas, having scored just five goals in their previous three meetings. The teams have gone below the total in five of their past seven encounters overall.

Goalie Profile - Pekka Rinne, Nashville Predators

No goaltender has been more dominant this month than Rinne. He enters the week with a sparkling 8-1-1 record to go along with a 1.47 goals-against average, a .947 save percentage and one shutout in November. Rinne is a significant reason why the Predators lead the NHL with a 17-6-1 record despite owning the league's third-worst power-play (15.2 percent). The Colorado Avalanche, who visit Nashville on Tuesday, are second in the league with a 30.2-percent conversion rate and might need that man advantage to help them solve Rinne.
Injury Update

The Dallas Stars can score with the best of them, but it's clear they miss the offensive contributions of John Klingberg on the back end. The talented defenseman has missed the last eight games with a hand injury, and the Stars have scuffled to a 3-4-1 SU record in his absence. Dallas has scored just 22 goals over that span, with 12 of those coming in wins over the Senators and New York Islanders. Klingberg isn't expected back until mid-December at the earliest.

Hat Trick Trends

? The Winnipeg Jets don't care if their opponents score first. Well, that might not be entirely true, but the Jets come into Tuesday's game in Pittsburgh having gone 6-3-0 when the opposition gets on the board first. The Penguins, on the other hand, are just 7-3-5 when they strike first. Consider taking the "No" on the team scoring first winning this one.

? As hard as this might be to believe, the St. Louis Blues are still looking for their first one-goal victory of the season, entering the week having gone just 0-4-3 in one-goal games so far. Bettors should strongly consider fading the Blues one-goal margin of victory prop for Wednesday's encounter with the host Detroit Red Wings.

Sabres top Sharks 3-2 in OT, winning streak reaches 10 games
November 27, 2018
By The Associated Press

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) The Buffalo Sabres had to go to overtime after squandering a two-goal third-period lead, but they still made it a perfect 10.

Jeff Skinner scored his team-leading 19th goal 1:19 into overtime, and the Sabres won their 10th straight by beating the San Jose Sharks 3-2 on Tuesday night.

Rasmus Ristolainen scored off a deke around Brent Burns, and Nathan Beaulieu also scored for Buffalo, which hasn't lost since Nov. 4.

The streak matches the longest in Sabres history and is the NHL's best run since the Columbus Blue Jackets won 16 in a row from Nov. 29, 2016, to Jan. 3, 2017. Buffalo won 10 straight twice before, and most recently by going 10-0 to open the 2006-07 season.

Carter Hutton stopped the first 32 shots he faced and 36 overall to extend his personal-best winning streak to eight, during which he's allowed just 15 goals.

Joe Pavelski scored twice for the Sharks in the final 8+ minutes to up his team-leading total to 15.

Martin Jones stopped 28 shots and had little chance on any of the three goals.

SENATORS 4, FLYERS 3

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Brady Tkachuk scored twice in the third period and Matt Duchene scored the eventual winner with 2:59 left, lifting Ottawa past Philadelphia, in the Flyers' first game since they fired general manager Ron Hextall.

Thomas Chabot also scored for Ottawa, which snapped a three-game losing skid.

Jake Voracek, Radko Gudas and Travis Konecny scored for the Flyers, who coughed up a 3-1 lead over the final 6 + minutes and lost for the sixth time in seven games.

DUCKS 3, LIGHTNING 1

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Ryan Miller made 34 saves and Nick Ritchie had a goal and an assist for Anaheim.

Miller won his 373rd game, moving past Andy Moog for sole possession of 17th place on the career wins list. He also moved within one victory of tying John Vanbiesbrouck for the most by a U.S.-born goalie.

Josh Manson and Carter Rowney also scored for the Ducks.

Brayden Point scored for Tampa Bay, which is 3-1-0 on a five-game homestand. Louis Domingue stopped 19 shots.

HURRICANES 2, CANADIENS 1

MONTREAL (AP) - Curtis McElhinney stopped 48 shots and Carolina defeated the Canadiens in Shea Weber's return from injury for Montreal.

Victor Rask and Trevor van Riemsdyk scored for the Hurricanes, who have won four of five.

McElhinney made 21 saves in the third period alone for his fourth straight victory.

Phillip Danault scored for the Canadiens, whose losing streak reached five games. Carey Price made 20 saves.

Montreal outshot Carolina 49-22, but its scoring woes continued. The Canadiens have seven goals in their past four games.

GOLDEN KNIGHTS 8, BLACKHAWKS 3

CHICAGO (AP) - Cody Eakin and Shea Theodore each had two goals and an assist, and Vegas picked up its season-high fourth consecutive victory.

Alex Tuch added a goal and an assist as Vegas continued its resurgence in the opener of a three-game trip. William Karlsson, Ryan Reaves and Daniel Carr also scored, and Marc-Andre Fleury made 21 saves for his sixth win in his last seven starts.

Dylan Strome had a goal and an assist in his Chicago debut, but the sliding Blackhawks lost for the third time in four games. Defensemen Gustav Forsling and Erik Gustafsson also scored.

Chicago goaltender Corey Crawford stopped 24 of 30 shots before he was replaced by Cam Ward for the third period. Ward finished with 11 saves.

AVALANCHE 3, PREDATORS 2

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Nathan MacKinnon scored twice and Semyon Varlamov made 36 saves for streaking Colorado.

Tyson Jost had the other goal for the Avalanche, who have won five straight. Colorado also ended an 11-game losing streak to Nashville in the regular season.

Ryan Hartman and Kevin Fiala scored for the Predators. Pekka Rinne finished with 22 saves.

PENGUINS 4, JETS 3

WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) - Zach Aston-Reese scored the tiebreaking goal with 5:12 remaining off a perfect pass from Phil Kessel, and Pittsburgh rallied past Winnipeg.

Derek Grant's first of the season pulled the Penguins even 5:08 into the third period. Sidney Crosby and Riley Sheahan also scored for Pittsburgh (10-8-5).

Mark Scheifele scored twice for the Jets (13-8-2), and Brandon Tanev had their other goal.

COYOTES 4, WILD 3

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Josh Archibald had two goals and an assist, and Arizona rallied from a two-goal, third-period deficit for the win.

Lawson Crouse and Michael Grabner also scored for Arizona, which snapped a four-game losing streak.

Charlie Coyle, Zach Parise and Jason Zucker scored for the Wild. Jared Spurgeon assisted on all three goals, matching his career high for assists.

Devyn Dubnyk, who missed Minnesota's last game with a stomach bug, stopped 10 of 14 shots. Antti Raanta stopped 17 of 20 shots before leaving with a lower-body injury after two periods. Adin Hill stopped all five Minnesota shots in the third period.

**********************

Wednesday?s 2nd list of 13: Catching up on college hoop

If you spent all of November watching football and you missed the start of college basketball season, here is some of what you missed??.

13) Gonzaga 89, Duke 87? Finals of Maui Classic was a terrific game; Duke led 2-0, but that was it- they were down by 16 with 15:54 left, before tying game late. Zags made 10-19 on the arc, and they were playing without Tillie, who made 47.9% of his 3?s last year.

12) Virginia 53, Wisconsin 46? Predictably slow-paced game (58 possessions) in final of the Battle for Atlantis. Teams combined to go 6-28 on arc; Badgers only got to foul line three times and forced only five turnovers (-8). If you bet the under, this was a rocking chair game.

11) Kansas 87, Tennessee 81 OT? Vols start three seniors, two juniors, led by 8 early in 2nd half, but three Jayhawks played 40:00+ in this OT thriller. Kansas made 44% of its 3?s in its 5-0 start. Tennessee is #36 experience team, Kansas #283.

10) Virginia Tech 89, Purdue 83? Finals of Charleston tourney elevated Hokies into the top 25, which they may have floundered by losing at Penn State last night. Tech outscored Purdue 19-7 on foul line. Both teams made over 40% of their 3?s.

9) Duke 118, Kentucky 84? Result like this in a season opener distorted everyone?s view of the season; did Duke become a little overrated because they played so well in this game? If you?re John Calipari, how do you restore the young Wildcats? confidence- they were down 91-54 at one point.

8) Louisville 82, Michigan State 78 OT? Chris Mack has a tough job, following Rick Pitino at a place where the fanbase isn?t exactly patient, but this win gets him off on the right foot.

7) San Diego 70, Colorado 64? Toreros are #6 experience team in America; they?re 5-1 with a 3-point loss at Washington. The middle of the WCC is better this season than it has been for a few years. San Diego starts four seniors, so this is a big year for them.

6) Buffalo 99, West Virginia 94 OT? Bob Huggins has young guards this year, which isn?t a good thing, but Buffalo is really good and should dominate the MAC. Bulls were down 69-56 with 8:05 left in regulation, but they forced 19 turnovers (+8) and got a great road win.

5) UConn 83, Syracuse 76? Orangemen don?t leave home before Christmas too much; they made only 23.3% of their 3?s in their first five games. This was Danny Hurley?s first statement win as the new UConn coach, coming in New York City, where it was like an old Big East conference tournament game.

4) Michigan 73, Villanova 46? Wildcats graduated four guys from LY?s national champs, and Michigan took its frustrations out for losing the national title game to Villanova eight months ago- this game was 49-17 at one point. Another early season brickfest, with teams combining to make only 8-32 on the arc.

3) Ohio State 64, Cincinnati 56? Good road win for Buckeyes squad that is experience team #281, while Cincy is #131 in experience. OSU led 55-39 with 5:23 left, before Bearcats made a late run but fell short. Buckeyes also have a road win at Creighton already.

2) Seton Hall 83, Miami 81? Finals of Wooden Legacy tournament in Fullerton; when they announce the Field of 68 in March, games like this will carry some weight, even though it was played almost four months before Selection Sunday. Pirates are #233 experience team; this is a great win for them.

1) Texas 92, North Carolina 89? Longhorns look to be improved this year, after going 30-37 the last two years. Texas lost to Michigan State the next night, but they?ve got this win and a neutral court win over Arkansas- the #256 experience Longhorns hope to be a factor in March.


**************************

Wednesday?s List of 13: College basketball knowledge??.

13) Top four rated conferences so far this season:

Big X, Big 14, ACC and the Big East.

12) Teams with least experience in country, among teams in the betting rotation:

Kentucky, UCLA, Cal State-Northridge, Maryland, Chattanooga and Duke

One of those six teams has a lot more talent than the other five.

11) Minutes Continuity measures how much guys have played together more than their experience- teams cobbled together by transfers are rated low in this metric:

Highest: Washington, Kansas State, Brown, Cal State-Fullerton, George Mason

Lowest: Tex-Arlington, Chattanooga, Idaho, Wichita State, Oakland

10) Teams who used their bench the most so far this year:
Denver, Manhattan, Georgia, Princeton, NC State

Teams who used their bench the least:
San Diego, Furman, Georgia State, St John?s, Boston College

9) Challengers to Gonzaga?s dynasty in the WCC are changing a little. St Mary?s is only 3-3 to start the season, but San Francisco and LMU are both still unbeaten. Conference seems to be a little deeper this season; BYU is still pretty good and San Diego seems improved, too.

8) Mike Davis is the guy who replaced Bob Knight as the basketball coach at Indiana, which was an enormous job for a rookie coach. That was 18 years ago.

18 years and three jobs later (he has won at all his coaching stops) Davis is now the coach at Detroit Mercy in the Horizon League. His son Antone is a freshman for the Titans, and the kid can shoot a basketball- he?s made 24 of his last 38 3-point shots.

Horizon League has slipped of late (ranked #24 LY, were as high as #10 in 2011) and Davis got this job because the Titans are 16-47 the last five years. Detroit?s last winning season was in 2013, when their best player was the then-coach?s son (Ray McCallum Jr).

Detroit starts young Davis and four seniors, so they?ll be an interesting follow this winter. They also have five true freshmen, six JC transfers and two graduate transfers.

7) Rough start to the season for the Pac-12; Oregon is their highest-rated team, but the Ducks lost at home to Texas Southern Monday, as a 24-point favorite. Not looking good right now for the Pac-12 to get a lot of at-large spots in the NCAA?s.

6) Texas Southern uses November/December to fund its program, playing a ridiculous number of road games for guarantee fees. Here is who they?ve played so far:

Nov 6, won 72-69 at Baylor
Nov 10, lost 104-67 at Gonzaga
Nov 12, lost 85-73 at Iowa State
Nov 14, lost 103-64 at San Diego State
Nov 18, lost 85-63 at Evansville
Nov 26, won 89-84 at Oregon

Their first Division I home game is January 19th. January freakin? 19th.

5) Teams who have taken the highest % of 3-point shots:
Drake, Eastern Washington, Villanova, Siena, North Dakota State

4) Teams who have made the highest % of 3-point shots:
Indiana State, New Mexico, Detroit, South Dakota State, Creighton

3) Teams playing the fastest tempos so far this season:
FIU, Marshall, Eastern Kentucky, Citadel, Rider, Green Bay

Teams playing slowest tempo so far this season:
Virginia, Siena, Marist, Wisconsin, Cincinnati, Houston

2) As of Monday night, there were still 15 kids in the country who?ve taken 2+ foul shots per game and made all of them, led by Oakland?s Jaevin Cumberland, at 26-26.

1) Oakland?s Braden Norris was leading the country in 3-point %age, making 12 of his 14 shots behind the arc. Ian Sistare of Dartmouth was next, at 11-14.

Auston Matthews stars in return, Maple Leafs beat Sharks 5-3
November 28, 2018
By The Associated Press

TORONTO (AP) Auston Matthews had two goals and an assist in his return from a left shoulder injury that sidelined him a month and the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the San Jose Sharks 5-3 on Wednesday night for their third straight victory.

John Tavares also scored twice, former San Jose star Patrick Marleau added a goal, Mitch Marner had three assists, and Andreas Johnsson finished with two assists to help Toronto improve to 18-8-0 and match Buffalo for the NHL lead with 36 points. Frederik Andersen made 38 saves.

Tomas Hertl, Joe Pavelski and Melker Karlsson scored for San Jose, Logan Couture had two assists and Aaron Dell made 24 saves.

Matthews sat out 14 games after taking a clean hit from Winnipeg's Jacob Trouba on Oct. 27. The 21-year-old center had 10 goals and six assists in the first seven games of the season, but was held off the scoresheet in three consecutive outings before getting hurt. He made an almost immediate impact against San Jose, taking a pass from Marner and finding Tavares at the edge of the crease on a power play at 3:38.

The 39-year-old Marleau, who played 19 seasons with the Sharks, scored against San Jose for the first time, giving him at least one goal against all 31 NHL franchises.

AVALANCHE 6, PENGUINS 3

DENVER (AP) - Gabe Landeskog broke a tie midway through the third period and Colorado overcame Sidney Crosby's natural hat trick to beat Pittsburgh.

Colorado won its sixth straight and is 8-0-1 in its last nine.

Nathan MacKinnon had three assists and an empty-net goal with 29 seconds left, his 18th goal of the season. Samuel Girard, Erik Johnson and Colin Wilson also scored for Colorado.

Crosby erased a 3-0 deficit by himself. He struck twice in the final minute of the second period. His first came off his own rebound on a breakaway with 52 seconds to go, and struck again with 10 seconds left with Colorado defenseman Patrik Nemeth off for holding. Crosby tied it at 4:43 of the second to complete his first hat trick of the season. He has 13 goals.

RED WINGS 4, BLUES 3

DETROIT (AP) - Tyler Bertuzzi broke a tie with 6:53 to go with his second goal of the game and Detroit held on to beat St. Louis after blowing a 3-0 lead.

Bertuzzi put in a loose puck from just outside the crease for his eighth goal of the season.

Thomas Vanek had a goal and an assist, Andreas Athanasiou also scored, defenseman Mike Green had two assists and Jimmy Howard made 33 saves to help Detroit snap a three-game losing streak.

David Perron scored twice for St. Louis, Vladimir Tarasenko added a goal and Jake Allen stopped 27 shots. The Blues have lost five of their last six.

STARS 4, FLAMES 3, OT

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) - Tyler Seguin scored 24 seconds into overtime to lift Dallas past Calgary.

Jamie Benn knocked the puck into the slot, where Seguin was wide open and put a shot inside the goal post on David Rittich. The goalie argued he had been interfered with by Benn, but the goal stood up after a video review.

Seguin also had an assist, and Benn, Jason Spezza, and Gavin Bayreuther added goals to help Dallas snap a four-game road winless streak. Khudobin made 30 saves. Garnet Hathaway, Johnny Gaudreau and Mark Giordano scored for Calgary.

DUCKS 3, PANTHERS 2

SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) - Nick Ritchie broke a tie with 1:28 left with his second goal of the game, John Gibson made 42 saves and Anaheim beat Florida.

Ritchie grabbed a loose puck in front and beat goalie James Reimer to the right side.

Josh Manson also scored to help the Ducks win for the fourth time in five games. Evgenii Dadonov and Aaron Ekblad scored for Florida, Jonathan Huberdeau had two assists, and Reimer made 22 saves.

*********************


Thursday?s List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud??.

13) 40 years ago this week, one of my all-time favorite TV shows made its debut on CBS.

The White Shadow was about a retired NBA player who coached an inner-city high school team in Los Angeles- his old college friend was the school?s principal.

The show starred Ken Howard, who was brilliant as a high school coach who bickered with the female assistant principal; the show was written by Bruce Paltrow, better known as Gwyneth Paltrow?s father.

Now that I?ve written that, I feel old. 40 years ago. Damn

12) This week, Major League Baseball announced a multi-year partnership with MGM Resorts that includes sponsorships and promotions across various media platforms, as legalized wagering becomes an established thing all over America. Right now, eight states have legal sports betting, with more to come, for sure.

11) Last year, Scott Tolzien started at QB in the Colts? season opener against the Rams in LA; Tuesday night, he was the THIRD quarterback taken by the Birmingham Fire in the new AAF, who will be coached by former Packers? DB Tim Lewis.

10) If you?re wondering about this new football league, the AAF that drafted its QBs Tuesday night, there will be no TV timeouts and 60% fewer commercials than NFL games.

Other differences will include no kickoffs and instead of onside kicks, the trailing team will get the ball on their own 35-yard line facing 4th-and-10. There will also be a 30-second play clock and mandatory two-point conversion attempts after touchdowns.

The league starts the Saturday night after the Super Bowl and has a 10-game schedule this year, with eight teams in the league, at least for the first season.

9) USC kept head football coach Clay Helton, but four assistant coaches were told to take a hike over the weekend. In college football, the assistant coaches do the recruiting, so this is no small thing, since college football recruiting is basically a 24/7/365 pursuit.

8) Larry Scott is the commissioner of the Pac-12 conference; he makes $3.1M a year, more money than every football coach in the Pac-12.

Greg Sankey is the commissioner of the SEC; he makes around a million bucks a year, less than every head football coach in the SEC.

At $3M a year, you?d think Mr Scott could find a way to get the Pac-12 Network on DirecTV.

7) West Virginia OC/play caller Jake Spavital is the new football coach at Texas State; they must?ve been watching that 59-56 game with Oklahoma last week. Mountaineers finished in the top 10 nationally in scoring offense this year; Spavital is considered a really good recruiter, which will come in handy at Texas State, which needs a lot of players.

6) Purdue football coach Jeff Brohm turned down Louisville?s offer, will stay as coach of the Boilermakers, which is good news for Purdue football fans.

5) Cleveland Cavaliers traded Kyle Korver to the Utah Jazz for two future 2nd-round picks and Alec Burks,

4) Why is ESPN running another hour-long story on Bob Knight? Hasn?t this subject been beaten to death by now? Knight won three national titles but was a creep/bully who made the game less fun for everyone around him. When winning isn?t fun, thats a problem.

3) Vanderbilt?s star freshman guard Darius Garland is out for this season after he had meniscus surgery; big loss for the Commodores.

2) Fact that I found weird: Eldrick Woods made his first hole-in-one in 20 years last week while playing golf with Fred Couples in La Quinta, CA. How does a guy who is that good a golfer go 20 years in between hole-in-ones?

1) I?m guessing you do too, but I get dozens of e-mails from companies promoting their Cyber Monday or Black Friday sales. They shout out ?Hurry before its too late!!!!?

When it comes to spending your money, it is never too late. A few hours after that sale ends, another one just like it begins, and that too, according to e-mails, is too good to pass up.

Guess it is a cheaper way of advertising, but enough already with the e-mails!!!!
