OTTAWA, Ontario -- Mark Borowiecki found a unique way to break the tension in a tight game against the New Jersey Devils.Derick Brassard scored the go-ahead goal early in the second period, Mike Condon stopped 29 shots and the Ottawa Senators beat the Devils 3-1 on Saturday night to snap a season-high three-game losing streak.Bobby Ryan scored in the first period and Zack Smith added an empty-netter for the Senators.However, everyone was talking about Borowiecki after the game. For about 30 seconds midway through the third period the Devils controlled the puck in the Ottawa zone while Borowiecki stumbled and fell about five times after losing his skate blade. Referee Tim Peel finally blew the play dead allowing Borowiecki to make his way to the bench and get his skate repaired.It was a very serious moment in the game and (the Devils) were throwing the puck around and then I saw (Borowiecki) fall and I couldnt help but chuckle when he fell on his butt so hard, Condon said. I talked to the ref after and he said `thats not hockey and I had to blow the whistle. Thankfully he blew it down.Borowiecki also had a postgame laugh about the incident and said it was the second pair of skates he broke in the game.My blade holder cracked in half and I lost my steel and when that happens you cant stand up. Its impossible, he said. Im pretty sure I have two bruised hip bones right now from falling so much. You can laugh about it now. (Chris Kelly) said Timmy Peel was so disgusted with me on that shift he just finally blew it down.John Moore scored and Keith Kinkaid finished with 28 saves for the Devils, who have lost five straight.The Senators entered the third period up 2-1 and needed a great save from Condon in the final minute before Smith scored into the empty net with 14 seconds to play.Despite Borowieckis moment of comedic misfortune, Senators coach Guy Boucher thought his club played a textbook third period -- not allowing the Devils to score while holding them to six shots.Winning teams, thats what theyre able to do, Boucher said. I like that twice we took away back doors, which has hurt us lately. I really like that we had a back door, box up mentality.(Cody) Ceci saved one, (Dion) Phaneuf saved one, our forwards were really looking for that back-door guy, so I think we got better. It was a solid, shutdown third period.Ottawa went up 2-1 at 1:14 of the second period when Brassard tipped a shot by Zack Smith past Kinkaid. That goal was changed after originally being credited to Smith.The Devils nearly tied the game a few minutes later when Taylor Hall beat Condon with a shot from the slot, but after hitting the post the puck was swept away by Dion Phaneuf.The Senators got the games first goal four minutes in thanks to a little leg work from Smith. Chris Kelly took a shot that was redirected by the knee of Ryan in front of Kinkaid.Kelly was originally credited with the goal but following further review it was changed to Ryan.The Devils tied the game just shy of the 11-minute mark of the first period when Moore beat Condon with a point shot. Mike Cammalleri picked up the assist on the goal, giving him his 600th NHL point.You hit a milestone and it gives you a moment to reflect, Cammalleri said. Im a romanticist when it comes to sports and it for me it makes me think of all the people that support you and all the time youve enjoyed playing this game.But its only a moment of reflection because you get right back to trying to win a hockey game.Game notes Ben Harpur, Craig Anderson and Mike Hoffman were the scratches for the Senators, while Beau Bennett, PA Parenteau and Pavel Zacha were scratches for the Devils ... F Casey Bailey, acquired along with defenseman Dion Phaneuf last season, made his Senators debut Saturday. ... F Jean Gabriel Pageau played his 200th NHL game, all with the Senators.UP NEXTDevils: At the New York Rangers on Sunday night.Senators: At the New York Islanders on Sunday night.

Dominic Solanke Jersey . -- The Missouri Tigers might not have a roster full of superstars. DeAngelo Williams and Gary Barnidge have made a pact. When both retire, theyll score a Winnebago and travel the country to catch all the pay-per-view WWE events the NFL calendar kept them from attending all these years.First to retire buys the Winnie, which puts the 33-year-old Williams, a Pittsburgh Steelers running back, at a slight disadvantage. Barnidge, a?Cleveland Browns tight end, is 31. Williams kids might tag along too.My daughters a big John Cena fan, Williams said.For a select few NFL players, professional wrestling is not occasional TV viewing, but a way of life.Williams, Barnidge and Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Vinny Curry are the leagues most visible converts, turning childhood memories into, well, more childhood memories.Wrestling brings out the giddy teen in guys like Barnidge, whos been hooked on the action ever since watching a family friend wrestle on a local circuit in north Florida.?Barnidge and Williams are former Carolina Panthers teammates who struck a friendship after Williams attended WrestleMania 28 without Barnidge. Theyve traveled to the subsequent four WrestleManias together and drive or fly to numerous other spots each year, such as Royal Rumble and SummerSlam.Barnidge always tries to take at least one Browns teammate to the Cleveland-area events. Sunday nights No Mercy event in Sacramento isnt close by, but that will be a no-brainer pay-per-view purchase at the Barnidge home after the Browns-Patriots game.People watch soap operas -- well, this is that, said Barnidge of the WWE. It has a storyline and action, yet its a physical sport. We know whos going to win, but it draws you in with the buildup and the tension.Williams is considered the most active WWE fan, but Curry has spent time with Williams and Barnidge on a few recent road trips. Next years WrestleMania in Orlando became a vacation for the threesome. Williams brought his family, and Barnidge -- known as Uncle Gary -- sometimes babysat when Williams and his wife step out.Our crew is pretty solid now, Williams said. Well be at Disney World the whole time, hanging out before the event. Tuesday and Wednesday you do the tourist stuff, then its all wrestling throughout the week. Its a family tthing.ddddddddddddA WWE spokesperson said the organization doesnt have an official relationship with the NFL, and the players dont get preferential treatment at the events. They buy tickets like everyone else. Curry said the players do get access to various WWE events and itineraries built around WrestleMania, which is like a mini-Super Bowl for that week.For Curry, wrestling is less about the perks and more about the attitude. Well before signing a five-year, $47.25 million contract extension with Philadelphia, Curry was a New Jersey kid who couldnt afford tickets to WWE events at nearby Asbury Park Convention Hall.So Curry got nostalgic, watching old clips of World Wrestling Federation action. Bam Bam Bigelow was a childhood hero through the television, Curry said.Hulk Hogan even reinforced Moms messages on occasion.As a kid, your parents try to get you to eat your vegetables. Well, Hulk Hogan could get me to eat my vegetables, Curry said. The body slams, the stories, the costumes, the face paint. I loved all that stuff.Many NFL players watch WWE casually, but only a few die-hards travel to the events. Former Browns Johnson Bademosi and Barkevious Mingo attended a few events with Barnidge and loved them, Barnidge said. Williams has taken several Steelers linemen to events on the Pittsburgh circuit.Barnidge said he most aligns with Undertaker -- calm and collected -- but when told Williams prefers the charismatic Enzo Amore, Barnidge switched his own answer to Big Cass, Amores partner.He talks a lot, but he backs up what he talks, Williams said of Amore. I kind of push myself through my words and how I carry myself. I dont talk until after its done, though.Barnidge wouldnt want to try wrestling post-football because he would get destroyed, he said. Just because football players slam bodies doesnt mean they could absorb clotheslines to the neck 100 nights a year. Wrestling requires specific training to take the bumps, and Barnidge wont be that motivated in his late 30s.But the 280-pound Curry is game for trying.All my goals would be set then, Curry said. ' ' '
