Montreal, QC (SportsNetwork. Shoes Black Friday Deals 2020 .com) - Carey Price made 40 saves and the Montreal Canadiens returned from the All-Star break with a 3-2 victory over the Dallas Stars on Tuesday. Price helped fight off Dallas two-man advantage late in the third period as the Canadiens held on for a third straight win. Alex Galchenyuk, Alexei Emelin and Brendan Gallagher all scored on Kari Lehtonen, who managed just 23 saves in Dallas second straight loss. Jamie Benn scored for the Stars and assisted on Patrick Eaves goal. A fortunate bounce gave the Canadiens a lead 6:07 into the game when Emelin sent a seemingly innocuous pass to the left corner that hit off a skate and somehow found its way between Lehtonens pads. A little later, Nathan Beaulieu led Galchenyuk with a stretch pass, and Montreal was suddenly ahead 2-0 following Galchenyuks terrific toe drag and backhand. The Stars stole a goal in the final seconds of the opening period after Jason Spezza won a faceoff with 2.7 ticks on the clock. Benn quickly collected the puck between the circles by kicking it to himself and snapped a shot into the corner. The teams traded power-play goals in the second, with Gallagher scoring at the 4:37 mark and Eaves tapping in a Tyler Seguin feed near the midway point. The Stars had a 5-on-3 for 1:03 with under five minutes to play, but Price prevented them from pulling even. Game Notes Emelin received a boarding major and game misconduct in the second period ... Eaves returned from a 21-game absence caused by a broken bone in his foot ... Both teams went 1-for-5 on the power play ... Montreal improved to 16-5-2 at home. Cheap Shoes Black Friday .

If Sundays disheartening 24-13 playoff loss to his old team, the Indianapolis Colts, turns out to be Mannings final NFL game, it will be a hat tip to Father Time, the one opponent every athlete is destined to lose to eventually. Manning looked every bit like a 38-year-old quarterback who has had four different surgical procedures on his neck Sunday, flashing little zip on his fastball and proving unable to deal with the Colts press coverage because Vontae Davis, perhaps the most underrated cornerback in football, and Co. simply werent scared of getting beat over the top. The quick hitches and bubble screens that have defined the Broncos offense since Peyton arrived from the Hoosier State for the 2012 season were impotent as Indys defensive backs jumped routes with impunity, forcing the weak- armed Manning, who finished 26-of-46 passing for 211 yards and a touchdown in the defeat, to misfire on downfield routes again and again. Those were my decisions, a forlorn Manning said after the game when discussing his downfield accuracy issues. A couple of them were called to go that way. A couple of them had some other options with it and some shorter passes with it. I ended up taking some long shots. Any time you lose a game, you always look to some incompletions and throws youd like to have back. And then some other ones, I possibly could have, probably should have gone to a shorter throw. Some context was added Monday when reports surfaced that Manning played the last month of the season with a torn right quad, suffered during Denvers Dec. 14 victory over the San Diego Chargers. The Denver Post, however, refuted that, saying Manning played with a strained quad and not a full tear. Whats clear is something was wrong with Manning late in the season whether it was the injury or just the general wear and tear an NFL season can take on a 38-year-old man. For what its worth Manning refused to blame his health saying, I felt good with (the quad) coming into the day. Empirical evidence says Manning was hurting at the bare minimum. He completed 77-of-121 passes for 990 yards, three touchdowns and six interceptions during the month of December, a startling downtick when you realize Manning finished his 17th season completing 66.2 percent of his passes for 4,727 yards with 39 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. I didnt play as well consistently in the second half of the season, Manning admitted. I cant give you a great reason for that. I played well at times but not as consistently as I did in the first half of the season. Sundays setback was the ninth different time Manning has led his team into the postseason without winning a game, furthering the narrative that the five- time MVP shrinks in big spots. The fact that Manning quarterbacked teams have reached the playoffs 14 times in his 17 seasons is loost on the haters, who focus on the fact the legendary signal caller is underwater (11-13) against the NFLs best competition and has amassed just one Lombardi Trophy. Fake Shoes Black Friday. The calendar will turn for Manning once again in two months and 40 looms after that, stark reminders that the arm strength isnt about to regenerate and what little athleticism Manning has left at this point is only going to regress further. In his post-game press conference, Peyton intimated a firm understanding that his football mortality, at least at the level he expects out of himself is at hand. My mind set right now is just disappointment after todays game, Manning said when asked if he was coming back next season as previously planned. I kind of need to process this game and well meet. I need to process this game, so Im disappointed right now is what I am. When pressed Manning continued to deflect. Yeah, I guess I cant just give that simple answer, he answered. Im processing it. So I cant say that (Im coming back). I could not say that. Manning can still succeed at this level as evidenced by his regular-season success but the sheer length of an NFL campaign works against him. The spry September Manning is still one of the two or three best signal callers in the game but the January one who has endured a season of hits looked like a guy with a tired arm who was mistake prone as well as inaccurate, not attributes you usually equate with Peyton. Things like pitch counts in OTAs and training camp will be thrown around as a recipe for future success, as will early exits in the regular season in order to protect Mannings health at all costs. Heck, if he wants to come back the Broncos might even consider letting another option handle the early-season load in order to make sure Manning is fresh for a potential stretch run, a tactic used often in places like the NHL, where the regular season isnt as important, but one that has never been attempted in the NFL at such an important position. The Broncos are expected to discuss Mannings health and the organizations future in a season-ending news conferences with coach John Fox and general manager John Elway later this week. I feel like the season was a waste of time, like we wasted all of our hard work, Pro Bowl cornerback Chris Harris said. We have to figure out what the plan is going to be next year and try to move on. Moving on could mean a divorce with Fox despite his success especially if the veteran coach stands it the way of highly-regarded offensive coordinator and Manning acolyte Adam Gase, who could get a head-coaching gig elsewhere if a succession plan in Denver isnt put into place. As for Manning, he has earned the right to decide his own future. Ive always taken a pretty accurate look and fair evaluation of myself, he said. If that habit continues, everything is in play including the realization that one of the greatest QBs in NFL history may be finished. ' ' '
