NEW YORK – For a stretch of 10 minutes in the middle frame of the first Stanley Cup Final game at MSG in 20 years, the New York Rangers fired 13 consecutive shots at the goal of the L. Ever Banega Jersey .A. Kings. Jonathan Quick turned aside each and every one of them and so many more - 32 in all - as he and the Kings nudged the Rangers to the brink of elimination on a sticky Monday night in Manhattan. “He was obviously the best player on the ice tonight,” Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said glumly afterward. Asked what went wrong, Vigneault deferred to Quick. “We couldnt score,” he said. This was a flashback to the remarkable Quick of two years earlier, the Quick who rung up three shutouts and a .946 save percentage in a near-flawless march to the Kings first Stanley Cup. The now 28-year-old hadnt been nearly as dominant this time around. He entered Game 3 with a mild .906 save percentage while sprinkling in the usual assortment of game-changing stops, including a breakaway save on Carl Hagelin in the dying moments of regulation in Game 1. “I think that was his best game of the playoffs,” Drew Doughty said of Quick in a visitors dressing room that remained cool and business-like, despite the Cup drawing near. “He played fantastic for us tonight. He made some big saves, saves he had no business making.” Most memorable and crowd-deafening among them was a heroic stop on Mats Zuccarello in the opening period, one that saw the Kings netminder employ every last ounce of will to keep the puck from crossing the line – the net appeared open – his paddle the ultimate saving grace. Some on the L.A. bench, including captain Dustin Brown, thought Zuccarello simply missed the gaping cage only to discover later on replay that it was Quick who kept it out. “Hes the best in the world,” said Jarret Stoll. “Hes going to come up with those saves sometimes, it doesnt surprise us.” His brilliance only continued thereafter. Amid the aforementioned barrage of shots in a second period plagued with penalties – L.A. was a perfect on six penalty kills – Quick calmly brushed aside Rick Nashs hard charge to the net before swatting Derick Brassards attempt away for another glowing stick save. Brown, also a teammate of Quick with the American squad internationally, is past being surprised by such theatrics in the crease. “The best example is playing at the Olympics and seeing other guys react to it and Im just sitting there because Ive played with him long enough and hes made enough of those saves you kind of expect him to do it,” said Brown. Born in nearby Connecticut and a Rangers fan growing up – the 90-minute drive kept him from attending many games – Quick had never played an NHL game in the historic Mecca of New York hockey, though he did take to the ice briefly as a 12-year-old in one rare visit. This performance will surely eclipse such a memory. Cloaked in a hoodie and sweats afterward, Quick downplayed any added meaning to his debut on the hallowed ice of MSG. “It meant it was a playoff hockey game,” he said slyly. “We were trying to win a hockey game.” One more and the taste will be a whole lot sweeter. Giovani Lo Celso Argentina Jersey . -- The Los Angeles Clippers chose not to speak publicly about owner Donald Sterling before they faced the Golden State Warriors for Game 4 of their first-round series Sunday. Marcos Acuna Jersey . With the Pirates in the thick of the race in the NL Central, the timing couldnt be better. Liriano struck out a season-high 11 in seven innings to win consecutive starts for the first time this season and Pittsburgh beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on Tuesday night. http://www.argentinasoccerauthentic.com/Nicolas-Tagliafico-Copa-America-Jersey/ . 5 Trade Deadline is drawing closer and teams will be deciding on whether to buy or sell.BALTIMORE - Their playoff hopes for this season all but vanquished, the sight of Manny Machado lying in a crumpled heap at first base, clutching his left knee, cast doubt on the Orioles prospects in 2014. On Tuesday evening, more than 24 hours after Machado fell awkwardly running through first base in Tampa Bay, Orioles manager Buck Showalter, general manager Dan Duquette and head athletic trainer Richie Bancells gathered the media to deliver the good news: Machado has a torn medial patellofemoral ligament and will be ready to play next season. "The MCL is fine; the ACL is fine," said Bancells. "All those major ligaments are fine. This is a smaller ligament and what it does is it keeps your patella from sliding laterally. So in his injury, his knee was in a position that his kneecap, or his patella, slid laterally, putting pressure on that ligament and causing it to tear." The prescription, in the immediate, is rest and treatment, what the Orioles are calling the "conservative" approach. In four weeks, Machado will be re-evaluated by team orthopedist Dr. John Wilckens. If Machados knee is progressing, hell begin light jogging and other "functional" activities, to use Bancells term, in late October or early November. Should Machado require surgery, hell need six-to-eight weeks of recovery time from the date of the procedure. "Mannys goingg to solicit a second opinion and see if the conservative treatment is the way to go, but if everything falls into place like we think, this is something that he could recover from with rest," said Duquette. Marcos Rojo Jersey. "Of course, he would be out for the rest of the season but he would be able to come back and play for next year." This isnt the first time Machado has suffered the injury. In 2011, at the age of 18, while playing for the Orioles Single-A affiliate in Delmarva, his kneecap slid out of place and forced him to miss some time. Bancells says Machados injury is most common in adolescent athletes. "Its funny, Manny said he had it when he was 18 and Im like, gosh that was a long time ago," said Showalter. "Then he reminded me that was only a couple of years ago. He had to remind me." Machados first full season in the big leagues concludes with an American League-best 51 doubles - Oaklands Jed Lowrie is next, with 44, entering Tuesdays play. He ends with a slash line .283/.314/.432, 14 home runs and 71 RBI. Considering what the diagnosis could have been, the Orioles can collectively breathe a sigh of relief. "Its good news for the clubhouse, as much for the person as for the team," said Showalter. "They all really respect Manny and the way hes carried himself this year and the way hes handled himself."
