Al Montoya suffered the loss, just his first in his last seven decisions. Ottawa opened the scoring at 13:34 on a goal by Mika Zibanejad, getting his 10th off a scramble at the side of the Jets net. But 2:03 later the Jets tied the game with a Dustin Byfuglien shot going off an Ottawa player and in. Anthony Peluso and James Wright had the assists. Peluso for the first time in his career has points in back to back games. The Senators regained the lead in the final minute of the first with Milan Michalek getting his seventh. The Jets outshot the Sens 13-10 in the period. Evander Kane got the Jets even at 1:32 of the second, scoring from the goal line after Craig Anderson made a great save on Jacob Trouba, coming on a great rush by the 19-year-old defenceman. Michael Frolik grabbed the other assist. It was Kanes fifth goal in nine games since returning from injury, while the assist for Trouba extended his point streak to four (1-3-4) and gives him 10 points in his last 15 games. The Jets had a great chance to take the lead on a great move in tight by Peluso, only to have the chip shot at the open net hit the cross bar. Shots in the second were even at 10-10. In a wild third period, the Jets again a great chance to take the lead, but a Chris Thorburn shot went off the post. Only seconds later Montoya stopped Cory Conacher on a breakaway, but off of the ensuing face-off, Zach Smith scored his fourth in six games to give Ottawa the lead. Clarke MacArthur made it a two-goal game as the Jets turned it over in their own end, but Olli Jokinen, with his 10th, again got the Jets to within one when he converted a pass from Byfuglien. Toby Enstrom also drew an assist on the goal. But that was as close as the Jets would get as the Senators hung on for the victory. The Jets outshot the Sens 12-9 in the third and 35-29 in the game. The line of Mark Scheifele with Kane and Frolik was the Jets best line, combining for 12 shots on goal with five each from Scheifele and Kane. The Bryan Little-Andrew Ladd-Blake Wheeler line, on the other hand, was held in check with Little the only member of the unit to get a shot on goal. Of the 35 shots, the Jets got 19 from defencemen. Mark Stuart had four shots on goal, seven hits and five blocked shots. Enstrom led in ice time at 24:07. For the first time this season the Jets did not have a power play. “It was a sloppy start to the game for us,” stated Jokinen post-game. “The goal late in the first period, we cant let them score there. Then its 2-2, Thorbs hits the post and, 10 seconds later, they score. We did not play as well as we have been lately.” Claude Noel felt mistakes hurt his team but they still had plenty of chances to win the game. “We played too much sideways in our zone," said the Jets coach. "We hit the post, dont get the shot through from the point, lose a face off in our zone, seeing-eye shot and were down. We played a decent game but gave them too much. We had a lot of chances, even short-handed, where we never got a shot. We didnt get a lot of production from all of our lines. Disappointing for me that in the whole game we never got a power play. Hard to believe.” The Jets were to fly to Boston after the game, but the snow storm in the Boston area changed that. The Jets will now practice in Ottawa on Friday. The Jets have a pair of afternoon games on the weekend, in Boston on Saturday and then in Pittsburgh on Sunday. Both games are available on TSN Jets and TSN Radio 1290 Winnipeg.

Clearance Kobe Bryant Shoes .Y. -- The New York Islanders were merely content with a lopsided victory. https://www.cheapkobebryantshoes.com/ . -- Andy Granatelli, the former CEO of STP motor oil company who made a mark on motorsports as a car owner, innovator and entrepreneur, has died.WASHINGTON - Members of the Senate Commerce Committee chastised the commissioners of the NFL, Major League Baseball, NBA and NHL for skipping a hearing Tuesday on domestic violence in pro sports, with one saying the absences reflect a lack of focus on the issue.They were all asked to be here, and leadership does start at the top. And I do think that its pretty convenient that none of them were able to appear today, said Sen. Kelly Ayotte, a Republican from New Hampshire. That does say something about: How big a commitment is there going to be on this?Instead of Commissioner Roger Goodell, for example, the NFL sent Troy Vincent, the executive vice-president of football operations, who ignored questions from reporters after the hearing and was led away by league employees. During his prepared testimony, Vincent — a former player — choked up while saying abuse was a way of life in his home when he was growing up because his mother was beaten.Domestic violence has become a main topic of conversation across the sports landscape in recent months, particularly in light of the case of former Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice. He punched his then-fiancee — now wife — in a casino elevator and originally was suspended by Goodell for two games, then barred indefinitely after graphic video of the fight was released by TMZ. Eventually, though, that second punishment was erased by an arbitrator when Rice appealed.Vincent was asked Tuesday why the NFL didnt try harder to obtain the video from inside the elevator. He replied, I dont think there was a need, and said the league should have handed Rice a tougher punishment to begin with.At the time of Rices indefinite suspension, Goodell said the TMZ video spurred the tougher penalty.On Tuesday in New York, an appeal hearing began for Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, who was suspended for the rest of the season after pleading no contest too misdemeanour reckless assault for injuring his 4-year-old son with a switch.

Senators pressed the representatives of the four leagues and their players unions — NBA Players Association Executive Director Michele Roberts was the only head of any of the eight organizations present — on matters such as whether they conduct their own investigations, independent of police; whether coaches or other team personnel are required to report instances of illegal conduct to law enforcement; and what sort of help is provided for abuse victims.Youve got to understand that the status quo is not acceptable. ... I think you all know that in your hearts, said Sen. Claire McCaskill, a Missouri Democrat. There will be more accountability in the future.During the hearing, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, a Connecticut Democrat, announced he was introducing legislation to end the leagues permanent antitrust exemptions, while Sen. Cory Booker, a New Jersey Democrat, said its ridiculous that the NFL enjoys tax-exempt status.Sen. Jay Rockefeller, the West Virginia Democrat who chairs the committee, said he called for the hearing because until very recently, the leagues records have not been good on the issue, and they have done little or nothing in response when players have been charged or convicted for domestic violence.There were some contentious moments involving the NFLPA, including when Sen. Dean Heller, a Nevada Republican, said: When youre worried more about getting back on the field, instead of stopping abuse, your priorities are out of order.Later, during an exchange with the NFLPAs deputy managing director, Teri Patterson, Heller said: Youre either for stopping sexual assault, domestic abuse and child abuse — or youre not.___Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
