DETROIT -- The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings began the 2016-17 NHL season going in opposite directions.The teams are scheduled to meet at 7:30 p.m., Monday at Joe Louis Arena in Detroits season home opener.Ottawa is 2-0-0 after defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-4 in overtime on Wednesday night in its opener and a 4-3 shootout win over the Montreal Canadiens Saturday night, while the Red Wings are 0-2-0 after a 6-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday night and dropping a 4-1 decision to the Florida Panthers Saturday night.Early in the season, its good to grow and learn from different things ..., Senators forward Ryan Dzingel told the Ottawa Sun after Saturday nights game. We grew as a team. Both wins helped us out a lot.Dzingel had a goal and an assist in the game, in which defenseman Erik Karlsson and center Kyle Turris scored in the shootout.It will be the Senators first road game of the season.It is the first time that Detroit has lost its first two games of the season since 2009.The Red Wings defensive corps was an issue last season, when they reached the playoffs for the 25th consecutive season -- the longest current streak in the NHL -- and were eliminated in the first round of the NHL playoffs by the Tampa Lightning in five games, and it continued to be an issue in the first two games of the 2016-17 season.I think we got some guys on the back end that have to play better, Detroit coach Jeff Blashill told mlive.com after Saturday nights game.The Red Wings have already surrendered numerous breakaways and odd-man rushes. They fell behind 1-0, 1:10 into the game Saturday night and trailed 2-0 midway through the first period.We cant keep giving up free opportunities like that. Its nonsensical, Blashill said. That put us on our heels. I thought then we played to not give up chances and when you do that youre tentative and we werent quick enough on pucks. Their second guy beat our second guy to too many pucks, so we didnt spend any time in their zone.Blashill switched his top two defense pairs after the season-opening 6-4 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday night.Danny Dekeyser played with Alexey Marchenko in the opener but was paired with Mike Green Saturday night.Marchenko skated with Brendan Smith against Florida. The third pair of Jonathan Ericsson and Xavier Ouellet was intact for both games.I think Johnathan Ericsson has been very good in two games, Blashill said. I think Xavier Ouellet has been very good in two games. I think Mike Green for large portions has been good. But as a group we got to do better.This season is Detroits last at Joe Louis Arena. The team will move to the Little Caesars Arena, which is under construction, to begin the 2017-18 season. Leo Nomellini Jersey . Cote was eligible to become a free agent Feb. 15.

LOUIS -- Mike Smith is used to facing plenty of shots, so this was nothing new. http://www.custompatriotsjersey.com/custom-jon-morris-jersey-large-561f.html . Anthony Calvillo, through 20 CFL seasons, was frequently invincible and largely stoic in the heat of competition. But underneath the professional exterior he was, and is, compellingly human. Norm Snead Jersey . With their top three point guards and Kobe Bryant all sidelined by injury, the Lakers signed Marshall out of the D-League on Friday before their home game against Minnesota. Mike Wilson Jersey . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert is nicked up again. Gabbert sprained his right ankle during training camp practice Monday and left the field on a cart. He was seen walking around the facility in tennis shoes and without a limp about two hours later. Coach Gus Bradley called it "a freak deal." "He got up and he walked off, and thats a good thing," Bradley added. Since the Jaguars have Tuesday off, the team says Gabbert will be evaluated over the next 48 hours before determining whether he can practice Wednesday. "Our mentality is weve got to move on," Bradley said. "The next man up. Obviously we care about Blaine and we want him to get back and hopefully its nothing serious, but as the mentality of the team it gives an opportunity for the next guy to step up and we just move forward." Gabbert played his entire rookie season in 2011 with a nagging toe injury. He missed the final six games last season after injuring his right forearm. He also played through a torn labrum in his non-throwing shoulder. One of his teammaates caused the latest injury.dddddddddddd Veteran guard Uche Nwaneri stepped on Gabberts ankle while trying to move to pick up a stunting defensive end. Gabbert fell to the ground and then slammed his helmet against the grass in frustration. "I take pride in protecting the quarterback," Nwaneri said. "So you never want to see that happen." Before the collision, Gabbert was having one of his better days in camp. Two days after a rough practice that included several botched snaps, Gabbert completed 11 of 15 passes in 11-on-11 drills Monday. Chad Henne, who is vying with Gabbert for the starting job, completed 5 of 10 passes. If Gabbert cant practice Wednesday, rookie Matt Scott and third-year pro Mike Kafka could get extra repetitions. Neither has gotten much work during the first four days of training camp. "Training camp is always one of the times when injury bug can really cost a team," Nwaneri said. "Were definitely cognizant of the fact that getting guys hurt can really hurt a team. Youve still got to go out and play." ' ' '
