NHL News: Red Wings F Robby Fabbri (lower body) out for season


Detroit Red Wings forward Robby Fabbri will require surgery and is out for the remainder of the season, coach Derek Lalonde announced Wednesday.

Fabbri is expected to require a four-to-six week recovery period from a lower-body injury that he sustained during Detroit’s 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on March 8.

Fabbri, 27, totaled 16 points (seven goals, nine assists) in 28 games this season.

A Stanley Cup champion with St. Louis, Fabbri has 168 points (80 goals, 88 assists) in 330 career games with the Blues and Red Wings. He was selected by St. Louis with the 21st overall pick of the 2014 NHL Draft.

NHL News: Senators D Thomas Chabot to miss couple of weeks


Ottawa Senators defenseman Thomas Chabot will miss a “couple weeks” with an upper-body injury, likely ending his season.

Senators head coach D.J. Smith announced the status of Chabot on Wednesday but didn’t offer when the player sustained the injury.

Chabot logged 18:01 of ice time in Monday’s game against Florida but didn’t have a shift in the final six minutes. He appeared to hurt his wrist after a hit by Nick Cousins.

Ottawa enters Wednesday’s action five points behind Pittsburgh for the second wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, and the Senators would have to leapfrog both Buffalo and the Panthers. Ottawa has just eight games remaining; its season ends two weeks from Thursday on April 13.

In Chabot’s absence, Tyler Kleven is expected to make his NHL debut against the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday.

Smith also announced that goalie Cam Talbot would be available against the Flyers. He hasn’t played since March 4 after sustaining an oblique injury. Talbot is 15-14-1 with a 2.85 goals-against average this season.

Chabot, 26, has 41 points (11 goals, 30 assists) and 52 penalty minutes in 68 games this season. He has 229 points (53 goals, 176 assists) in 381 career games, all with the Senators.

Ottawa selected Chabot No. 18 overall in the 2015 NHL Draft.

NHL News: NHL roundup: Wings lean on David Perron, sink Penguins


David Perron scored three third-period goals to help lead the Detroit Red Wings to a 7-4 home win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday.

Perron scored two goals in a span of 45 seconds to give Detroit a 6-4 lead with 2:55 remaining in the game. First, while on a power play, Perron fired a shot from the left faceoff circle that went through the legs of Pittsburgh goalie Casey DeSmith to make it 5-4 with 3:40 left. Perron then fluttered a backhand shot underneath the crossbar with 2:55 to go.

Dylan Larkin added an empty-net goal for Detroit with 36.9 seconds left. Larkin also had two assists for a three-point night for the Red Wings.

Four different players scored for the Penguins, and Evgeni Malkin and Rickard Rakell each had two assists. Pittsburgh lost for the sixth time in eight games. Jason Zucker, Jake Guentzel and Jeff Carter each had a goal in the second period to erase the Penguins’ 3-0 deficit.

Blues 6, Canucks 5 (OT)

Jakub Vrana scored twice, including the overtime winner, as host St. Louis edged Vancouver to leave the teams with identical records.

Justin Faulk had a goal and two assists and Pavel Buchnevich added a goal and an assist for the Blues, who won for the fifth time in seven games (5-1-1).

Quinn Hughes logged two goals and an assist and Andrei Kuzmenko also scored twice for the Canucks. Brock Boeser had a goal and two assists as the Canucks lost for only the third time in 13 games (10-2-1).

Sharks 3, Jets 0

James Reimer made 41 saves and Noah Gregor had a goal and an assist as San Jose recorded a shutout win over visiting Winnipeg.

The victory ended San Jose’s nine-game (0-6-3) winless streak, avoiding the eighth double-digit winless drought in Sharks franchise history. Reimer collected his third shutout of the season. Kevin Labanc and Martin Kaut scored the Sharks’ other goals, both in the third period.

Winnipeg missed another chance to solidify its playoff position. The Jets are 5-6-1 with three shutout losses and only 24 goals scored in their last 12 games.

Oilers 7, Golden Knights 4

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins had a goal and four assists, Connor McDavid had three assists and Leon Draisaitl added a goal and an assist as Edmonton cruised in Las Vegas.

It was the second five-point game of Nugent-Hopkins’ career. Evander Kane scored the 300th goal of his career and Zach Hyman, Darnell Nurse, Evan Bouchard and Brett Kulak also scored for Edmonton. Stuart Skinner finished with 18 saves as the Oilers extended their point streak to eight games (7-0-1).

Jonathan Marchessault scored two goals for Vegas, which had a four-game winning streak snapped. Alex Pietrangelo had two assists and William Karlsson and Michael Amadio also scored, while Jonathan Quick stopped 28 of 34 shots before giving way to Laurent Brossoit, who made four saves.

Predators 2, Bruins 1

Juuse Saros made 35 saves as Nashville won in Boston, handing the Bruins a rare regulation loss at home and ending their seven-game winning streak.

Cody Glass had a goal and also assisted on Cole Smith’s empty-netter for Nashville, which lost its previous two games. Boston broke Saros’ shutout bid with 0.3 seconds left when David Pastrnak buried a turnaround shot at the left crease for his 52nd goal of the season.

Linus Ullmark stopped 21 shots, but Boston lost in regulation for just the fourth time this season on home ice (30-4-3). The Bruins need 14 points in their last eight games to set the NHL’s single-season record for points, a mark currently held by the 1976-77 Montreal Canadiens (132 points).

Lightning 4, Hurricanes 0

Andrei Vasilevskiy made 31 saves and Brayden Point provided two goals and an assist as Tampa Bay snapped a four-game losing streak with a much-needed victory against Carolina in Raleigh, N.C.

Steven Stamkos added a goal and two assists for the Lightning. Alex Killorn’s empty-net goal came with 4:21 remaining. Vasilevskiy’s third shutout of the season came in a thorough performance as the Lightning kept the Hurricanes in check. He made 14 of his saves in the third period.

The Hurricanes were shutout victims for the third time this month, ending a four-game homestand with a frustrating result. Pyotr Kochetkov made 17 saves.

Rangers 6, Blue Jackets 2

Patrick Kane capped a three-goal flurry in the first period as host New York continued its roll by clobbering Columbus.

The Rangers improved to 9-1-1 in their past 11 contests and moved within two points of the second-place New Jersey Devils in the Metropolitan Division. Filip Chytil and Vladimir Tarasenko scored before Kane netted his fifth goal since being acquired from the Chicago Blackhawks on Feb. 28. Artemi Panarin and Vincent Trocheck also tallied goals.

Kiril Marchenko scored his 20th goal to match the Columbus rookie record set by Pierre-Luc Dubois in 2017-18. Johnny Gaudreau set up Marchenko’s power-play goal and then scored late in the first.

Flyers 3, Canadiens 2

Morgan Frost scored two goals, Owen Tippett added another and host Philadelphia defeated Montreal.

It was the fourth consecutive victory for the Flyers. Philadelphia goaltender Felix Sandstrom made 27 saves. Sandstrom was a late addition to the lineup following an injury to Carter Hart. Brendan Gallagher and Rafael Harvey-Pinard each scored for the Canadiens. Canadiens goaltender Cayden Primeau stopped 24 shots.

Frost scored the go-ahead goal at 17:45 of the third period when he skated up the side, weaved around a couple defenders and flipped a wrist shot into the net. Primeau was then pulled for an extra skater and Tippett capitalized with an empty-net goal at 18:14 for a 3-1 advantage. Harvey-Pinard closed Montreal within 3-2 with only 22.4 seconds remaining.

Stars 4, Blackhawks 1

Four different players scored and Jake Oettinger made 17 saves to lead Dallas past host Chicago.

Tyler Seguin, Colin Miller, Joe Pavelski and Luke Glendening tallied for the Stars, who are one point behind the Central Division-leading Minnesota Wild and are tied in points with the second-place Colorado Avalanche, who hold a game in hand.

Tyler Johnson scored for the Blackhawks, who have lost six straight. Alex Stalock made 26 saves before he was given a game misconduct at 16:32 of the third period. Petr Mrazek stopped all three shots he faced in relief.

Flames 2, Kings 1

Jacob Markstrom sparkled in net, backstopping host Calgary past Los Angeles, ending the Kings’ franchise-record point streak.

Andrew Mangiapane and Walker Duehr scored for the Flames while Markstrom made 32 saves in one of his best performances of the season. Calgary is just outside the final Western Conference playoff spot with seven games remaining.

Sean Durzi scored for the Kings, who lost in regulation for the first time in 13 games. Goalie Joonas Korpisalo stopped 30 shots. The Kings, who are battling for the top spot in the Pacific Division and Western Conference, went into the clash riding a three-game winning streak and on a franchise-record point streak (10-0-2).

NHL News: James Reimer racks up 41 saves as Sharks blank Jets


James Reimer made 41 saves and Noah Gregor had a goal and an assist as the San Jose Sharks recorded a 3-0 shutout win over the visiting Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday.

The victory ended San Jose’s nine-game (0-6-3) winless streak, avoiding the eighth double-digit winless drought in Sharks franchise history.

Reimer collected his third shutout of the season and was often spectacular in stopping all 41 shots faced. The highlight was a save-of-the-year candidate at 16:19 of the second period, when Reimer extended his stick to knock away Mason Appleton’s shot on an open net.

Gregor recorded his first multi-point performance of the season, including the game’s first tally at 9:51 of the first period. It was the 12th time in the Jets’ last 14 games that the opposing team had scored the opening goal.

Kevin Labanc and Martin Kaut scored the Sharks’ other goals, both in the third period.

The Sharks are only 2-10-4 in their last 16 games, but both wins have come against the Jets. San Jose (20-39-15, 55 points) also collected a 3-2 overtime victory in Winnipeg on March 6.

Winnipeg (41-31-3, 85 points) missed another chance to solidify its playoff position. The Jets hold the Western Conference’s second wild-card spot, but are just two points ahead of the Calgary Flames.

An ill-timed scoring slump has plagued the Jets during their postseason push. The Jets are 5-6-1 with three shutout losses and only 24 goals scored in their last 12 games.

Despite outshooting the Sharks by a 41-30 margin, Winnipeg couldn’t solve Reimer. The Jets didn’t help their cause with several off-target shots, including a Josh Morrissey shot off the goalpost in the opening minute of the second period.

The scoring woes have extended to the Jets’ power play. After going 0-for-3 with the extra attacker on Tuesday, the Jets are 1-for-30 on the power play in their last eight games.

Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck stopped 27 of 30 shots.

NHL News: Oilers roll past Knights behind Ryan Nugent-Hopkins


Ryan Nugent-Hopkins had a goal and four assists, Connor McDavid had three assists and Leon Draisaitl added a goal and an assist as the Edmonton Oilers cruised to a 7-4 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night in Las Vegas.

It was the second five-point game of Nugent-Hopkins’ career. Evander Kane scored the 300th goal of his career and Zach Hyman, Darnell Nurse, Evan Bouchard and Brett Kulak also scored for Edmonton (43-23-9, 95 points), which closed to within three points of the first-place Golden Knights (46-22-6, 98 points) in the Pacific Division.

Stuart Skinner finished with 18 saves as the Oilers extended their point streak to eight games (7-0-1).

Jonathan Marchessault scored two goals for Vegas, which had a four-game winning streak snapped. Alex Pietrangelo had two assists and William Karlsson and Michael Amadio also scored, while Jonathan Quick stopped 28 of 34 shots before giving way to Laurent Brossoit, who made four saves.

Edmonton, playing the second game of a back-to-back that began with a 5-4 win at Arizona on Monday, took a 3-2 lead in a wild first period that saw five goals in the first 10 minutes.

Marchessault gave Vegas a 1-0 lead just 72 seconds into the game, but the Oilers tied it just 37 seconds later on a power-play goal by Bouchard.

Nugent-Hopkins made it 2-1 at the 8:20 mark when he scooped up Nicolas Roy’s turnover in the slot and then fired a wrist shot past Quick’s glove side for his 35th goal of the season. Karlsson tied it 1:04 later with a short-handed goal.

Draisaitl put Edmonton back ahead, 3-2, just 24 seconds later with his 47th goal of the season; he tapped in a cross-crease pass from McDavid.

Vegas tied it early in the second period on Amadio’s 13th goal, but Edmonton answered with three goals in a span of 9:33 to break the game open.

Nurse got the first at the 6:01 mark with a sharp-angle slap shot from the bottom of the left circle. Kane followed with his milestone goal before Hyman potted his 33rd goal on a power play off a cross-crease pass from McDavid.

Kulak made it four unanswered goals for the Oilers early in the third period when he came out of the penalty box and scored his first goal since Dec. 7.

Marchessault ended the scoring with 1:32 remaining.

NHL News: Stars blast Blackhawks, tighten Central race


Four scorers helped the Dallas Stars to a 4-1 win against the host Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday.

Tyler Seguin, Colin Miller, Joe Pavelski and Luke Glendening tallied for the Stars (40-20-14, 94 points), who are one point behind the Central Division-leading Minnesota Wild and tied in points with the second-place Colorado Avalanche, who hold a game in hand.

Dallas’ Jake Oettinger made 17 saves.

Tyler Johnson scored for the Blackhawks (24-44-6, 54 points), who have lost six straight. Alex Stalock made 26 saves before he was given a game misconduct at 16:32 of the third period. Petr Mrazek stopped all three shots faced in relief.

Seguin gave Dallas a 1-0 lead at 5:45 of the first period. Jani Hakanpaa carried the puck down the right side in transition, skating to the right faceoff dot before dishing to Seguin, who beat Stalock from the slot.

Miller made it 2-0 at 18:59 in the final second of a power play. Evgenii Dadonov, along the right wall, found a wide-open Miller with a cross-ice pass, and the defenseman fired a shot from the top of the left circle.

The Stars outshot the Blackhawks 9-4 in the first period and by early in the second held a 20-8 advantage in shot attempts.

Taylor Raddysh had a rare chance for Chicago midway through the middle frame on a three-on-two rush, but his backhand from low in the left circle skipped just wide of the far side of the net.

Pavelski pushed Dallas’ lead to 3-0 at 11:24 of the second when he tipped Joel Hanley’s point shot in the slot by Stalock’s glove side.

The Blackhawks couldn’t muster any form of attack for much of the second, going nearly 17 minutes with just one shot on goal in the period. They finally got their second of the frame with just over three minutes left, earning sarcastic cheers from the crowd.

Glendening capitalized on a short-handed two-on-one break to extend it to 4-0 at 7:04 of the third period. It was his third goal of the season and first in 48 games.

Johnson snapped a 14-game goal drought when he swept in a rebound in front of the net to cut it to 4-1 at 10:33.

Celebrity Hailey Bieber, the youngest daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin and Kennya Baldwin, has been featured in several major ad campaigns and walked the runway many times. She has been married to celebrity singer Justin Bieber since 2018. She is also the founder of a skincare line and has hosted several shows on television. The supermodel has a whopping 49.5 million fans and followers on social media.

The lady with ‘glazed donut’ skin demonstrated that her life does not always center around personal turmoil when she posted her most recent promotional video to social media. Justin Bieber’s wife continues to experience more fame as a successful celebrity despite the ongoing stress that the internet world has recently put her through.

The model has obviously not let recent events affect her mindset when it comes to her career, as evidenced by her most recent post, with the brunette showcasing her posing skills in a fresh batch of images for famous sportswear and footwear company. Hailey made a preppy entrance as she rested up against a wall while dressed in a sporty outfit.

Her hair was styled into two high pigtails and looked longer than it does now, suggesting that the ad was filmed before her hair-cutting experience. Hailey, who opted for a serious look for the series, wore a two-piece with prep-school influences and a scarlet sweater thrown over her shoulders for extra flair. Hailey wore a red sports bra with the FILA logo sewn into the left-hand area. The logo for the brand was also visible on the striped waistband of her navy-blue tennis-style miniskirt.

In the second and third pictures, fans received a better look at Hailey’s outfit because the camera was angled out more to highlight both the clothing and Hailey’s slim figure at the same time. Hailey chose to pose half-seated in image two, and her long pigtail braids curled around her shoulders and touched her face.

The celebrity model wore identical gold earrings on her earlobes, a gold watch and bangle on her wrist, and a gold chain around her neck. The final picture showed Hailey standing with her hands on her hips and what appeared to be headphones on, playing music.

NFL News: Report: Patriots not in on Lamar Jackson


The New England Patriots are not expected to be players in the Lamar Jackson sweepstakes, despite the quarterback’s reported interest in joining the team, The Athletic reported Wednesday.

Patriots owner Robert Kraft set the rumor mill into overdrive earlier this week when he said he got a text from rapper Meek Mill about Jackson’s interest in the Patriots. Kraft said it was up to head coach Bill Belichick.

Not happening, per The Athletic.

Jackson’s current contract demands and the draft capital a team would have to give up are a bridge too far for the fiscally conservative Patriots, per the report.

Also, the Atlanta Falcons have removed themselves from pursuing Jackson. Falcons owner Arthur Blank told two different media outlets that despite their interest in Deshaun Watson last year, the timing now is different.

The Falcons named Desmond Ridder their starting QB for 2023.

“Every year is different,” Blank told USA Today. “Deshaun was a different situation. It was a different time and space. I think Lamar is a great player … but we look at our roster and our ability to continue to build our roster now and have salary cap freedom, which we’ve never had.”

Jackson has asked to be traded, but the market for him is shrinking.

On Tuesday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions all said they’re not interested in pursuing Jackson. The Washington Commanders, New York Jets and Carolina Panthers already had stated similarly.

The Jets are actively seeking to trade for Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The Seattle Seahawks re-signed Geno Smith earlier this month, with coach Pete Carroll adding the team “couldn’t afford” Jackson.

Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard on Monday confirmed his interest in Jackson. Colts owner Jim Irsay later in the day said Jackson’s contract demands weren’t an issue, but that a team has to guard against compromising “your future to do it.”

“It really has nothing to do with actual dollars,” Irsay said. “I mean, paying a contract like that is not a problem. I mean, it’s not a problem for me. The issue is what’s the right thing to do for the franchise in terms of what helps us win in the long run.”

Jackson took to Twitter on Tuesday to defend himself against claims that durability is an issue with him.

“I don’t remember me sitting out on my guys week 1 vs jets To week 12 vs Broncos,” he tweeted. “How come all of a sudden I sit out because of money in which I could’ve got hurt at anytime within that time frame. When we know the Super Bowl been on my mind since April 2018.”

“Let’s get real. I rather have a 100% PCL than go out there and play horrible forcing myself to put my guys in a bad situation now that’s selfish to me,” he said in a second tweet.

Jackson missed four games in 2021 and five games in 2022 with injuries. Jackson, 26, is 45-16 as the Ravens’ starter and won the NFL’s Most Valuable Player award in 2019.

NFL News: Reports: DE Calais Campbell to sign with Falcons


The Atlanta Falcons are closing in on a one-year deal with free agent defensive end Calais Campbell, the latest in a series of moves to bolster a moribund defense, ESPN and NFL Network reported Wednesday.

Campbell, 36, was released by the Baltimore Ravens earlier this month in a cost-cutting move. The Ravens, who cleared $6.5 million in cap space, were hoping to re-sign Campbell on a lesser deal.

Instead, Campbell will take his six Pro Bowls and 99 career sacks to a team that has vastly improved its defense in free agency. The Falcons also added safety Jessie Bates III, defensive tackle David Onyemata and linebacker Kaden Elliss. Further, the Falcons own the No. 8 pick in the upcoming draft.

The Falcons ended 2022 ranked 23rd in the NFL in scoring defense (22.7) and 27th in total yards per game (362.1).

Campbell had 36 tackles and 5.5 sacks in 14 starts for the Ravens last season.

A 2017 All-Pro, Campbell was named to the Hall of Fame’s All-2010s team.

Campbell was a second-round draft pick of the Arizona Cardinals in 2008. He played for the team through the 2016 season then signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars as a free agent.

The Jaguars traded him to the Ravens in March 2020 for a fifth-round draft pick.

In 227 career games (208 starts), Campbell has 809 tackles (165 for loss), 237 quarterback hits, 99 sacks, three interceptions, 57 passes defensed, 16 forced fumbles and 12 fumble recoveries.

NFL News: NFL will allow teams to play on two short weeks


NFL teams will be allowed to appear in two Thursday games on short weeks based on a rule change implemented Tuesday at the NFL owners meetings in Phoenix.

The league tabled a vote on permitting flex scheduling for Thursday night games, a tweak that, if ultimately approved, could prevent matchups of losing teams in a prime-time showcase.

The change that was implemented could end up seeing some teams play on Thursday three times. Should a team be scheduled on consecutive Thursdays, only the first of those two games would be considered a short week.

In prior years, every team was assigned at least one Thursday game per season, but that will no longer be a requirement moving forward.

NFL executive vice president and chief media and business officer Brian Rolapp said, “We’re interested in making sure that we get exposure for all of our clubs. We also believe that these national windows are for clubs that are playing well. We want to put the best teams in the best windows.”

As for flex scheduling for Thursday games, New York Giants owner John Mara, who opposes the idea, fears it might pass at the next league meetings in May, according to ESPN.

“At some point, can we please give some consideration to the people who are coming to our games?” Mara said, according to ESPN. “People make plans to go to these games weeks and months in advance. And 15 days ahead of time to say, ‘Sorry, folks, that game you were planning on taking your kids to Sunday at 1, now it’s on Thursday night?’ What are we thinking about?”

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell responded to Mara’s remarks by saying, “There isn’t anybody in any of our organization that doesn’t put our fans first. Providing the best matchups for our fans is what we do. That’s part of what our schedule has always focused on. Flex has been part of that. We are very judicious with it and careful with it. We look at all the impacts of that before a decision is made.”
