After the Tuesday night game, where the Philadelphia Fyers has been defeated by the Devils in Game 2. The story is repeated again in Game 3. In fact,the New Jersey Devils defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 4-3 Thursday night to take a 2-1 lead in this Eastern Conference semifinal series.Patrik Elias, Ilya Kovalchuk and Zach Parise also scored for the Devils, who killed off two penalties in overtime before Ponikarovsky came through with his first goal of the postseason on a backhander that sneaked past Ilya Bryzgalov on his left side.

New Jersey Devils chase down Philadelphia Flyers with relentless effort
The Philadelphia Flyers had a chance to take a 2-0 lead in their Eastern Conference Semifinals game against the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night. Instead, they lost 4-1 and now head out of town with their series tied at one game apiece. Keep in mind that these two teams were only separated by one point in the regular season standings and that the Devils are hardly the Pittsburgh Penguins. So, winning Game 3 becomes key for either side. For much of the second and third periods it appeared as though the Flyers were skating through mud. First, let's give credit to the Devils for creating that reality. The two shots that the Flyers had in the second period seems to be reflective of a combination of factors. The first of which was New Jersey's defensive attack. They were all over the orange and black at times, bottling up the ice, blocking pucks, not allowing shots to get through or rebounds to be had. Martin Brodeur, who played well in Game 1, only faced nine shots in the first period and later saw that exact same amount of rubber in the third. Logic would indicate that this type of performance would have occurred in Game 1, due to the long layoff after the Quarter-Finals. But, maybe the Game 2 effort was partially a delayed let-down. The Flyers relied on their offense efforts almost all season long. After two games, they are 1-11 on the power play and that needs to change. It will be interesting to see how the flow of Game 3 develops, as we cut into that third slice of playoff bread on Thursday in New Jersey.

Senators’ upset bid ends in Game 7 loss to Rangers
Picked by many to finish last in the Northeast Division and toward the bottom of the Eastern Conference, Ottawa entered Thursday night loose, knowing the pressure was on the top-seeded New York Rangers, who were facing elimination in their own building.
But in the end, it was the Rangers' defense who got the better of the Senators offensively and in their own zone as New York advanced to the second round to face the Washington Capitals with a 2-1 victory. Goals from Marc Staal and Dan Girardi were the difference on the scoresheet, but it was Henrik Lundqvist (26 saves) who Ottawa was unable to solve all night.
History was against the Senators coming into Thursday night. The Senators were 0-4 in Game 7s before this latest loss, while New York had never lost a Game 7 at MSG in three attempts.

Fernando ‘The Greatest’ Torres seals Chelsea’s place in the Champions League final
Everyone said Chelsea would have to play two perfect matches to beat Barcelona in their Champions League seminfinal. They patiently waited in defense and held on for a 1-0 win at home in the first leg. In the first half of the second leg, Gary Cahill went off with an injury, Sergio Busquets equalized for Barcleona, John Terry got himself sent off to put Chelsea down to 10 men after just 37 minutes, Andres Iniesta put Barcelona ahead against a team with just 10 men and no centerbacks and then Ramires lobbed in a beauty to give Chelsea the advantage on away goals. Halftime.
The second half of the second leg began and Didier Drogba lunged at Cesc Fabregas in the box, who went flying because he felt the breeze. Still, it was enough to earn a penalty and Lionel Messi was the assassin to deliver the deathblow. Except, under the pressure of the situation and to the disbelief of everyone, he pinged his shot off the crossbar. Chelsea were somehow still in the lead.Barcelona again dominated possession, lulling themselves to sleep with every pass. Time slipped away as Chelsea made clearance after clearance. In the 80th minute, Fernando Torres was subbed on for Didier Drogba.And in the added time, with Chelsea just trying to survive a few more nervy seconds, it happened. Fernando Torres snuck behind the Barcelona defenders and found himself alone with just half a pitch, Victor Valdes and the goal. He made a move, hopped Valdes and slotted the ball into the empty net. Chelsea win on a 3-2 aggregate score. Advance to the final.Thursday, April 19, 2012

This Wildcats team is no different than most of the teams John Calipari has led to the Final Four. It is built around future pros making only a pit stop in the college game. But he figured something out this time around and found a way to get these players to buy into their roles. When I first watched Michael Kidd-Gilchrist a few years ago, he was the very best player on the floor at a LeBron James camp in Akron. But with Kentucky, he’s a glue guy. In high school, Marquis Teague was his team’s offense. But he’s grown into more of an actual point guard, and helps orchestrate the offense. It’s reasonable to doubt Calipari’s in-game coaching ability compared to the Jayhawks’ Bill Self, but the Wildcats are too talented and have been too well-coached to this point.

Benfica vs Chelsea Preview March 27th
The quarterfinals of the European Champions League kickoff on March 27, when Benfica of Portugal hosts England’s Chelsea at the Estadio da Luz in Lisbon on March 27. Benfica manager Jorge Jesus said he hoped his team would end up playing Chelsea, and that could be his first mistake since hoping to play a specific team often backfires.
Benfica lost their grip on first place in the Portuguese League over the weekend when they were held to a 0-0 draw away at Olhanense. They’re now one point behind league-leading Porto. Chelsea also played to a 0-0 draw on the weekend when they drew Tottenham Hotspur at home. It hurt fifth-place Chelsea’s’ chances of finishing in the top four, which would guarantee them a berth in the qualification round for next year’s Champions League.

Champions League
Yesterday Arsenal lost its game against AC Milan (4-0) in the elimination phase of the champions league. For the boss of Arsenal his team's is out of the competition because they made mistake after mistake in this compatition. Also, Arsenal was very poor defensively and offensively during all the 90 minutes of the game. But in contrast Milan's success was all the more eye-catching given they had endured a difficult four weeks in Serie A, suffering two defeats in six games. And they always had a lot of confidence and positive despite their recent results. However, it's not over yet. This is only the first leg. They have to stay focused for the return in London and then they will see how to get on.
