ncemen went to the net. Cowe

BUFFALO, N. http://www.nflchiefsus.com/Womens-Phillip-Gaines-Authentic-Jersey/ .Y. -- The Ottawa Senators got aggressive in overtime and Jared Cowen made it work. Cowen, a rookie defenceman, scored on a redirection from the slot 45 seconds into the extra period, giving Ottawa a 3-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night. With forwards Jason Spezza and Peter Regin back, the defencemen went to the net. Cowen pinched into the slot and took a pass from fellow blue-liner Erik Karlsson in the right corner. Karlsson was fed from the point by Spezza, his second assist of the night. "I just went to the net and Karlsson saw me, a great pass and I just touched it in there," Cowen said of his third career goal and first game-winner. "When I was going down, I was thinking it was a gamble, wasnt sure if I should be there. Obviously it worked out." Its not the type of play Spezza prefers to see become a habit. "You try to get your D involved in the rush, but not both of them," Spezza said. "I dont know if we want both guys jumping in, but well take it." The Sabres were taken by surprise, too. "It kind of threw (our) forwards off," Buffalo forward Derek Roy said. "You have to find your guy and make coverage." Milan Michalek and Regin also scored for Ottawa, which trailed 2-1 in the first period. Michalek, who leads the NHL with 19 goals, left with 5 1/2 minutes remaining in the second after colliding with Karlsson. Senators coach Paul MacLean said Michalek would be re-evaluated when the team returned to Ottawa, where the club plays Boston on Wednesday. "Hes a big cog to our team," Spezza said. "Hes a guy that works hard and makes a difference." Craig Anderson stopped 27 shots. Ryan Miller made a season-high 41 saves for the Sabres, who dropped to 2-5-3 in their last 10 home games. Paul Szczechura and Tyler Ennis scored for Buffalo, which held a team meeting after the game. "Weve been nowhere near good enough at home all year," Miller said. "I dont think its time to panic, but its time to build the game that we need to be competitive and be a playoff-calibre team." Buffalo, 1-1-2 in its last four at home, will wrap up its five-game homestand Friday against Toronto. "Im tired of could-haves," coach Lindy Ruff lamented. "Its how poorly we defended the first goal and how we defended that overtime goal." Regin tied the game 7 1/2 minutes into the third period, when his point shot got through a screen in front of Miller. Buffalo got off to yet another slow start as Michalek scored just 69 seconds into the game. As Miller appeared to lose sight of the puck, bouncing in several different directions, Spezza delivered a drop pass to Michalek in the slot for an easy one-timer. The Sabres came back with 5:44 left in the first when Szczechura scored on a backhander after breaking up a pass in the slot. Just 88 seconds later, Ennis put the Sabres up on a wrist shot from the slot, following a nice feed by Drew Stafford in the left circle. It was Szczechuras first NHL goal since March 25, 2010, with Tampa Bay at Boston. Buffalo had its six-game winning streak against Ottawa snapped. The Sabres are 8-1-1 in the last 10 games of the Northeast Division rivalry. "It feels like its a little bit between the ears and the guys need to get that trust," Miller said. "By the time you think through a situation, its gone. Hockey moves too quick. You have to be in the flow and right in the mix of the game." The Senators hope Michalek wont be sidelined too long after he attempted to break a fall with his right arm and instead landed on his shoulder. "I read the guys pass and stepped up and I think Milo was coming full speed to back-check," Karlsson said. "I was only looking for their guys and not ours, and we collided pretty hard there. We were both going forward. Its just bad luck. I didnt see him coming." NOTES: Michalek has scored a goal in six of his last eight games. ... D Mike Weber, who missed 11 games with a broken rib, returned to the Buffalo lineup, along with C Paul Gaustad, who sat out three games with an upper-body injury. ... Szczechura, who was injured throughout training camp and had been a game-day call-up for his first three games, appeared in his fifth game and centred for Thomas Vanek and Jason Pominville. ... Ottawa C Nick Foligno played in his 300th NHL game. He has points in six of his last eight. ... The Senators have been outscored 33-20 in the first period.http://www.nflchiefsus.com/Womens-Aaron-Murray-Authentic-Jersey/ . - Connor McDavid scored 53 seconds into overtime as the Erie Otters came from behind to defeat the visiting Guelph Storm 4-3 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action. Zach Fulton Womens Jersey .

The offer was confirmed Thursday by a person close to the negotiations who could not comment publicly because the team had not formally announced it. The offer, made to Aldridges representatives last week, was first reported by Yahoo! Sports. Aldridge, in the fifth and final year of a $65 million contract, is set to become a free agent next summer. The Blazers hope to lure him to stay with a five-year, $108 million extension. Aldridge averaged a career-best 23.2 points and 11.1 rebounds last season for the Blazers, who went 54-28 and advanced to the Western Conference semifinals before losing to eventual NBA champion San Antonio. The move does not come as a surprise after general manager Neil Olshey emphasized the importance of getting tthe deal with Aldridge done. nflchiefsus.com/Womens-Aaron-Murray-Authentic-Jersey/. "The most important thing is everybody, including LaMarcus, knows hes the number one priority in the organization right now," Olshey said when the season ended. There was talk last summer that Aldridge was interested in entertaining other offers, but as the season drew to a close he said several times that he was happy in Portland. The Blazers have been known in recent years to pull off draft night surprises, but the team was quiet with no picks this season. It was the third time that the Blazers had gone without a selection, but first since 1999. The team surrendered its picks in this years draft because of earlier trades. The No. 24 overall pick went to the Charlotte Hornets as part of a 2011 trade that brought Gerald Wallace to Portland. The No. 56 pick went to the Denver Nuggets in the 2011 trade that sent Andre Miller to the Nuggets. ' ' '
