take on the biggest and best performances. This is where we say, Morning,
Joe.Avs starting strong: The defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins
had a chance to start the season 3-0-0, but the Colorado Avalanche beat them 4-3
in overtime Monday night at PPG Paints Arena. Avalanche captain Gabriel
Landeskog scored the tying goal late in the third period and then the winner in
OT. Despite the absence of Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, who remains sidelined
with a concussion, the Penguins have been impressive in their Stanley Cup
defense. However, youve got to like what were seeing from the 2-0-0 Avalanche,
who missed the playoffs the past two seasons. After coach Patrick Roys
surprising exit during the offseason, GM Joe Sakic hired up-and-coming AHL coach
Jared Bednar for the job, a key hire. Landeskog has great puck-protection
instincts and needs to keep his legs moving to be effective, which he did
exactly that against the Penguins. Re-signing goalie Calvin Pickard was a good
move for the Avalanche. His teammates respect him and he will push No. 1 goalie
Semyon Varlamov. Joe Colborne, who scored a hat trick in his first game of the
season, is versatile and he will help the teams possession game. Ultimately, the
teams core players -- captain Landeskog, 23, Nathan MacKinnon, 21, and Matt
Duchene, 25 -- need to set the tempo. Those players are at an age where theyre
ready to lead and if they and the Avs continue like they have in the first two
games, then Colorado should like its chances of returning to the postseason in
April.Kreider a pain in the butt: Two summers ago, New York Rangers Chris
Kreider played a charity game in Boston like it was Game 7 of the Stanley Cup
finals. The game was loaded with current and former NHLers and his tenacity was
on full display. That hasnt always been the case on a consistent basis during
past regular seasons for Kreider. The 25-year-old forward is off to a solid
start this season and hell need to continue that if the Rangers are to be
successful. He has registered at least one goal and one assist in each of the
Rangers first three games of 2016-17. His six points and three-game scoring
streak is a career high. Even though its early in the season, Kreider has found
chemistry with linemates Mika Zibanejad and Pavel Buchnevich. Kreider is showing
his strengths as a power forward and hes been a pain in the butt for the
opposition. The Rangers are 2-1-0 after Mondays 7-4 win against the San Jose
Sharks at Madison Square Garden.Vanek not done yet: Sure, Detroit Red Wings
defenseman Mike Greens first career hat trick en route to a 5-1 win against the
Ottawa Senators Monday night was impressive. It was the first three-goal game by
a Red Wings blueliner since Nicklas Lidstrom on Dec. 15, 2010. But it wasnt
Greens heroics I focused on: It was the three assists by Wings newcomer Thomas
Vanek that had me smiling. After the Minnesota Wild bought out Vaneks contract
during the summer, the Red Wings took a low-risk chance and signed the
32-year-old forward to a one-year deal worth $2.6 million. Vanek was signed
because of his ability to produce, especially on the power play. In Detroits
first three games this season, Vanek has two goals (one on the power play) and
three assists for five points. If he can continue this pace for the majority of
the season, it could turn into an incredible offseason transaction for the Red
Wings.

was good about the clubs recent play. It worked.

. Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday
night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack
of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That
came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the
locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself.

Manning Jersey . Perhaps Carroll was so prepared for a break because he
believes there is very little the Seattle Seahawks need heading into the
off-season. "I dont see anything that we need to add. We just have to get
better," Carroll said.

Semesa Rokoduguni for pledging allegiance to England, but has promised them a
bone-jarring reception on Saturday.The second autumn international at Twickenham
has cast the spotlight on the issue of overseas agents, clubs and nations
plundering Pacific Islands talent and the vast disparity in pay.Rokoduguni and
Hughes have qualified for England on residency grounds and will earn a match fee
of ￡22,000, while the Fijians must settle for a daily allowance of ￡60 during
their tour. In a damning statistic, all four wings in Frances Test against
Australia in Paris on Saturday night are of Fijian origin.Qera, Fijis captain,
understands the motivation for players heralding from his poverty-stricken
homeland to seek the riches available overseas, but insists there will be a
price to pay on the pitch.At the moment we are happy for the boys getting the
achievement, Qera said. We have got the likes of Waisake Naholo at the All
Blacks, the Australian boys Tevita Kuridrani and Henry Speight, and then Semsea
and Nathan.We are happy for them and happy for the achievement. We cannot stop
them from trying to progress their rugby careers. But as I always say, on the
field its a totally different ball game. We will meet up after the game as
mates, but during the game it will be a different story.Hughes, who startts on
the bench with Rokoduguni on the right wing, accepts the welcome signposted by
Qera.ddddddddddddI do understand it. If youre an Islander, and I have this
opportunity to play against Fiji, you know what is coming, Hughes said. You take
it and you have got to give it back. Theyll know its coming too.Hughes made his
Test debut as a replacement in the 37-21 victory over South Africa having
qualified for England on residency grounds in June, saying of his choice: I play
my rugby to support my family and put shelter over their heads.Fiji coach Johns
McKee admits there were attempts to persuade Hughes to choose the country of his
birth and does see a solution to the problem.I spoke to Nathan a number of times
over the past three years and he never actually made himself available to play
for Fiji, which was disappointing, McKee said.People make their own decisions.
It is their life, it is their livelihood, it is their family. Under the current
regulations after 36 months you are eligible to play for a country based on
continuous residency.The Fiji Rugby Unions policy is that it should be extended
to 60 months, which is five years. In the current professional era of the game I
think that would be a more realistic timeframe.
