Assistant coach Paul MacLean’s one-year contract will not be renewed for the 2020-21 season, general manager Jarmo Kekalainen confirmed Thursday, so the responsibility of coordinating the Jackets’ power play will presumably return to assistant coach Brad Larsen’s purview. Kekalainen did not offer a reason, but the cost of paying for three bench assistants instead of the usual two could have played a role — the COVID-19 pandemic has cost NHL teams a lot of money and also threatens to hold future revenue down. The Jackets also didn’t show improvement on the man-advantage under MacLean’s direction. Prior to MacLean’s arrival Nov. 21, the power play was successful 15.6% of the time in 20 games and ranked 24th among NHL teams. The percentage increased only a tick with MacLean, bumping to 16.8% in the Jackets’ remaining 50 games, and still ranked 24th during that span. Overall, the Blue Jackets finished 27th on the power play at 16.4% (31 of 189), and it only got worse in the playoffs. They went just 3 of 34 (8.8%) in 10 games, which ranked 22nd out of 24 postseason teams going into Thursday’s second-round games. MacLean, a longtime NHL assistant and also the winner of the Jack Adams Award in 2013 for his work as Ottawa Senators head coach, was the second assistant in as many years brought in at midseason to focus on the power play. The Blue Jackets had more success under the direction of hall of famer Martin St. Louis, who was hired Jan. 21 of the 2018-19 campaign, but he opted to focus on coaching his sons’ teams rather than returning for another season. Now, barring a third unforeseen addition to the coaching staff, Larsen will get another crack at solving the Jackets’ lingering power-play issues, which have vexed them since the second half of 2016-17. Impressive compliments A day after former Blue Jackets executive Bill Zito was hired as the Florida Panthers’ general manager, coach Joel Quenneville had some nice things to say about the team his new GM helped construct. The three-time winner of the Stanley Cup with the Chicago Blackhawks doesn’t know Zito like he does Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella or assistant Brad Shaw, but he knows a strong team identity when he sees it. "You look at Columbus, the way they play … the competitiveness of their team is something that you appreciate — whether that’s a trait from the day (players) were drafted to how they evaluate players," said Quenneville, who spoke on a video conference. 2 "You’re watching a game early in the playoffs and they’re going into (five overtimes), Tampa and Columbus, and Columbus is very comfortable playing a Tampa team that over that kind of time is going to be dangerous. I think that’s something that we want to make sure that we’re looking to get to." 3 Columbus Dispatch / Playoffs showed Blue Jackets’ need for upgrade at center By Brian Hedger – September 7, 2020 The Blue Jackets have plenty of reasons to feel good about what the pieces they have in place for the 2021 season and beyond. But there is one noticeable, important hole that they know must be addressed. "Our center ice position has always been talked about," coach John Tortorella said last month, when asked during a season-ending conference call what areas he would like to upgrade this offseason. "You just don’t find center-ice men in the league (via free agency). Everybody’s looking for those guys." He’s not wrong. NHL teams usually retain their top centers with long-term contract extensions, and those who do make it to free agency are typically signed quickly to massive deals that don’t always make a lot of financial sense. That doesn’t change the fact the Jackets need an upgrade in the middle of their second line, which became painfully obvious in postseason series against two center-rich opponents, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning. The good news for Columbus is that it has developing No. 1 center in Pierre-Luc Dubois and an ideal third-line option in grinder Boone Jenner — but there is a glaring void between them. Here are three ways that general manager Jarmo Kekalainen can explore to fill the gap: Free agency This might be the least likely way, as Tortorella pointed out, but this offseason will be different because of coronavirus pandemic that limited the season to 70 regular-season games. The NHL’s revenue took a major hit, future revenue is in jeopardy with no clear date on when fans can return to arenas and the league’s salary-cap will remain at $81.5 million for the 2020-21 season. Cap- strapped teams may be looking to shed salary in trades, and free agents might have to settle for shorter- term deals for less money than in recent seasons. As for this year’s pending free-agent pool, it’s a bleak field for those needing a top-six pivot. Nashville’s Mikael Granlund tops the list at just 30 points this season (17 goals, 13 assists) and there really isn’t a fallback option. Free agency might be an option to add scoring depth, but the available talent is probably not enough to bring a second-line center to Columbus. Trade market Kekalainen will explore the market, but that doesn’t mean a deal should be expected. In fact, "Growing from within," is a term that fans should get comfortable hearing. "We have some really good young players that have taken a big step into the right direction and they’ll take another one or two in the near future," Kekalainen said, referring to talented rookie forwards Alexandre Texier, Liam Foudy and Emil Bemstrom. 4 Should the Jackets go the trade route, however, they have a wealth of chips to use — including a stable of NHL defensemen, talented young forwards and a pair of goaltenders in their mid-20s who performed at elite levels this season. The Edmonton Oilers come to mind as a possible trade partner, needing help in net and on defense, and they have a skilled 27-year-old center, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who could fill the Jackets’ need. He only has one year left on a contract with a manageable cap hit of $6 million, though, so it would be a risk without Nugent-Hopkins agreeing to entertain the idea of staying in Columbus long term. Look within again? The way Alexander Wennberg ended the season was akin to sinking a birdie putt from 50 feet away to end a terrible round of golf. The 25-year-old center was one of best players on the ice, for either team, in the Jackets’ season-ending overtime loss in Game 5 against Tampa Bay — and his highlight-reel goal in Game 2 dropped jaws around the league. Wennberg clearly has the skills and size to be the center the Blue Jackets need, but he hasn’t performed consistently for three consecutive years now — after putting up a tantalizing 59 points in 2016-17 as the Jackets’ top center. Tortorella was asked if Wennberg’s play against the Lightning was more encouraging or frustrating, and his answer summed it up perfectly. "Both," he said. "It (ticks) me off and it excites you at the same time. Not even just the last game. Wenny wants to try and get better. He wants to see how he can improve … but it (ticks) me off. Why isn’t it there all the time?" Another option might be Texier, whom Kekalainen believes can play center, though he has skated mostly at left wing thus far. Shouldering the responsibilities of centering the second line might be a little much at this stage for the 20-year-old. Stay tuned, because the Jackets’ hunt for another skilled center should make for an interesting offseason.

  • Ang National Hockey League
    ANG NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE Ang National Hockey League o NHL ay itinatag sa Canada noong 1917. Ilang koponan ang sumali at nawala, ngunit anim na koponan ang nanatiling aktibo mula pa sa mga unang araw ng liga. Ang Boston Bruins, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers at Toronto Maple Leafs ay binansagan na “The Original Six”. Sa ngayon, ang NHL ay binubuo ng 30 na koponan: pito sa Canada at 23 sa U.S. Ang Liga ay nahahati sa dalawang pagpupulong: Eastern at Western. Ang bawat pagpupulong ay may dalawang pangkat. Mayroong 16 na koponan sa Eastern Conference na kinabibilangan ng pangkat ng Atlantic at Metropolitan. May 14 na koponan naman sa pagpupulong ng Western, na kinabibilangan ng mga koponan sa pangkat ng Pacific at Central. Sa karaniwang panahon, ang bawat koponan ay may 82 na laro, at hinahati sa paglalaro sa sariling bayan at pangdadayuhan. Ang katayuan sa liga ay batay sa sistema ng punto, na kung saan, ang dalawang punto ay ipinagkakaloob para sa nanalo at ang isa, para sa overtime o shootout na pagkatalo. Labing-anim na koponan ang naglalaban para sa kampeonato – na tinatawag na playoffs: ang tatlong nangungunang koponan sa bawat apat na pangkat, at ang dalawa na may pinakamataas na puntos sa bawat pagpupulong. Ang kampeon sa playoff ay siyang pinagkakalooban ng Stanley Cup – ang pinakaantigong tropeo sa palakasang-pangpropesyonal sa North America. PAGLALARO Ang mga panimula sa Hockey ay simple – mag-skate ka, lumusot ka, humataw ka at gumawa ka ng puntos. Ang mga manlalaro ay lumiligid sa loob ng arena ng yelo sa pamamagitan ng skates – boots na may dobleng talim sa gilid ng talampakan nito – na nagpapa- hintulot ng matalim at mabilis na pag-ikot.

    The Chicago Bears chose Devin Hester with the 57th pick in the 2006 draft,nike nfl uniforms 2012, and they got a steal. Hester is the best kick returner in the league,new nfl nike jerseys, and he has a chance to go down in history as the best kick returner ever. Every N.F.L. team would love to pick this year’s version of Devin Hester. But does this draft have a Devin Hester? One surprisingly bold player is willing to say it does, and he’s it: Troy cornerback Leodis McKelvin. The Vikings clearly were unconcerned about the risks of a huge second contract for a superstar running back. We discussed that issue this summer,nfl jersey monster,leaked nike nfl jerseys, noting the relatively short career spans for running backs and the recent examples of big-time runners whose production dipped dramatically after signing their second contracts. Peterson has tallied 1,334 touches in his career,womens football jerseys, including kickoff returns, but has missed only three of a possible 64 games and has had no off-field issues that would compromise his eligibility to play with the league. Most NFL observers consider Peterson and the Tennessee Titans' Chris Johnson as the co-best running backs in the league,football jersey creator, but Peterson's deal exceeds the one Johnson signed last month. Johnson's extension averaged $13.3 million in new money and included $30 million in guarantees.

  • Maurice Changes Lines at Jets Practice
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/maurice-changes-lines-at-jets-practice- 473698153.html Maurice changes lines at Jets practice By: Mike Sawatzky The Winnipeg Jets may have the NHL's best home record but there's a price to be paid for all that success. "When you're higher in the standings, and we're close to first, you're going to get teams pretty geared up to play you when they come in," said veteran Jets defenceman Ben Chiarot following practice at Bell MTS Place Saturday afternoon. "This is a tough building to play in and when you put where we are in the standings on top of that, teams are going to come out hard. If we're off one night or sleeping to start, we're going to be off on the wrong foot. "And St. Louis was pretty jacked up to play us." The Jets, mostly outplayed by the Blues in a 5-2 loss to St. Louis Friday night, will have another chance to defend home ice Sunday afternoon (2 p.m., TSN3, TSN 1290) when the New York Rangers make their lone visit of the 2017-18 season. Winnipeg was 20-4-2 at home and tied for top spot in the Central Division while the Rangers were three points out of a wild-card playoff spot in the Eastern Conference heading into Saturday's action. On Thursday, Rangers GM Jeff Gorton sent shockwaves through the league when he announced the club was entering a rebuilding phase and warned the club's fans that a sell-off of major assets was probable prior to the Feb.
