WINNIPEG -- There will be many more showdowns between Patrik Laine and Connor MacDavid, but this one could be the coolest of all time.Probably literally and perhaps figuratively.The two young guns and their teammates on the Winnipeg Jets and Edmonton Oilers, respectively, wage battle in the Heritage Classic on Sunday afternoon on a spectacular outdoor rink in the middle of Investors Group Field, home to the Canadian Football Leagues Winnipeg Blue Bombers.The forecast calls for a high of 45 degrees with a 70 percent of rain showers in the morning, but the precipitation is expected to end several hours before the 2 p.m. CT opening faceoff.Laine is coming off a three-goal performance -- his hat trick was scored in less than 23 minutes -- including the tying and winning goals in a 5-4 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday. The Oilers, meanwhile, defeated the St. Louis Blues 3-1 the same night with McDavid picking up a goal and an assist.The teams will wear throwback jerseys to pay homage to their days in the World Hockey Association, the so-called Rebel League which operated from 1972-79. The Jets and Oilers were two of the four teams to merge into the NHL -- the Quebec Nordiques and Hartford Whalers were the others -- for the 1979-80 season.More than 33,000 people will be in the stands for the game. The Jets sport a 2-2-0 record while the Oilers are 4-1-0.Jets captain Blake Wheeler said the non-stop events surrounding the Heritage Classic weekend have been a circus.We havent really had a whole lot of time as a team to try to focus ourselves, he told the Winnipeg Free Press. But I think once we come into the rink (Sunday), its going to be pretty clear what the objective is. The circumstances and the big stage aside, it is just another game and we need to be prepared to play a certain way if were going to give ourselves a chance to win (Sunday).The teams are experimenting with tinted visors and eye black to counter any glare off the ice.Laine said he didnt notice any difference between the ice at IGF and the Jets home rink, the MTS Centre. Both sheets are artificial.I feel slow on every ice, he told the Free Press. I think its going to be just fine.McDavid, the newly minted Oilers captain, said he was looking forward to playing outside, although it didnt take him back to his childhood as it would with many other Canadian kids.We tried to have a rink one winter but we had a small backyard. We wanted a pool and my dad wanted a deck and a hot tub and that kind of put a dent in the whole backyard thing, McDavid told the Edmonton Journal.In the Heritage Classics opening act, the Winnipeg Jets alumni defeated their Oilers counterparts 6-5 on Saturday afternoon thanks to a last-second penalty shot goal by 46-year-old Teemu Selanne. Known as The Finnish Flash, Selanne was clearly the most dangerous player on the ice, finishing with two goals and three assists. He retired following the 2013-14 season.

Green juggled oranges on a postgame show after a win earlier this season, showing off for the cameras. His latest sleight-of-hand got a touchdown and turned a game.And maybe the Bengals season, too.Greens one-handed catch in the middle of an end zone scrum highlighted Cincinnatis day full of big plays, and the Bengals pulled away to another lopsided victory over their intrastate rival, beating the winless Cleveland Browns 31-17 on Sunday.Greens 48-yard touchdown catch on the final play of the first half helped the Bengals (3-4) regain their footing in the injury-depleted AFC North.We needed it in a big way, said Brandon LaFell, who caught a 44-yard touchdown pass.The defending division champions piled up their most points since they beat the Browns 37-3 last December. Jeremy Hill had a 74-yard touchdown run as part of his 168-yard effort, the best by a Bengals running back in seven years.After failing to score more than 23 points in any of the first six games, the Bengals finally got their act together against one of the leagues worst defenses, piling up 559 yards -- their most since 1990.Its definitely a start for us, Hill said. Were not satisfied, but its a start in the right direction.For Cleveland, it was just another step in a downward trend since the season opener.The Browns (0-7) extended their worst start since 1999, when they were a first-year expansion team. The NFLs only winless team also lost yet another quarterback -- the theme of their season.Cody Kessler got hit hard while throwing a shovel pass in the second quarter, then went to the locker for a concussion evaluation and was ruled out.Quarterbacks only have so many hits in them, Browns coach Hue Jackson said. Its unfortunate. On we go.The concussion left the offense in the hands of undrafted rookie Kevin Hogan, the Browns sixth quarterback of the season.Hogan -- Clevelands last quarterback standing -- kept it close for a while by scrambling 28 yards for his first NFL touchdown, the longest TD run by a quarterback in team history. He finished as the Browns top rusher with 104 yards.Running is something Ive always felt confident in, that I could get a first down or aa big gain, Hogan said.ddddddddddddWith cornerback Joe Haden sidelined, the Browns had nobody who could cover Green, who had eight catches for 169 yards. The entire Browns defense couldnt stop him on the final play of the first half.Green reached with his right hand and pulled in the tipped ball for a 21-10 halftime lead.I beat everybody down there, so I had first dibs on the ball, Green said. I tapped it to myself a couple of times.He also had a 48-yard catch down the sideline that set up a field goal as the Bengals pulled away in the third quarter.ONE-SIDED RIVALRYThe Bengals have won the past four in the series by scores of 30-0, 31-10, 37-3 and 31-17. The Bengals 37-3 win in Cleveland last December was Cincinnatis most lopsided in the series and matched the biggest margin of victory by either team.INJURIESBrowns: Haden was sidelined with a groin injury. Terrelle Pryor, who leads the Browns in receiving, played with an injured hamstring and had two catches for 18 yards.Bengals: TE Tyler Eifert was active for the first time following offseason ankle surgery and a back injury. Eifert got onto the field on the second series and finished with one catch for 9 yards.ORANGE YOU CONFUSEDIt was tough to distinguish the teams by uniform. Both have orange helmets. The Browns wore white jerseys and orange pants. The Bengals wore orange jerseys and white pants. And it was all the same shade of orange.FANTASY IMPACTAndy Dalton has his third straight big game against the Browns, going 19 of 28 for 308 yards with two TDs. In his past three games against Cleveland, Dalton is 54 of 74 for 762 yards with seven TDs and no interceptions.UP NEXTThe Browns host the Jets, whom they havent beaten since 2007.
