The world will know Georges St-Pierres successor on Mar. 15. The Ultimate Fighting Championship announced its card for the Dllas-hosted UFC 171, featuring a bout between Johny Hendricks and Robbie Lawler for now-vacant UFC welterweight championship. St-Pierre reigned atop the welterweight division for five years before the Montrealer relinquished the belt, electing to take personal time away from competition on Dec. 13. Currently on a three-fight win streak that includes a unanimous decision win over St-Pierre training partner Rory MacDonald, Lawler (22-9, 1 NC) is paired off against Dallas-native Hendricks (15-2) who was defeated in St-Pierres last bout via a controversial decision. Other bouts on the card include former interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit (29-7) against Tyron Woodley and Ultimate Fighter season 1 winner Diego Sanchez (26-6) against Myles Jury (13-0). The card will also feature Thiago Silva (16-3-0, 2 NC) against Ovince St. Preux (14-5) in a lightweight battle and Montreals Alex Garcia (11-1) in a welterweight fight against Sean Spencer (11-2). .com) - Baltimore Ravens running back Justin Forsett is active for Sundays matchup with the Miami Dolphins. .com) - Jimmie Johnson won Sundays AAA Texas 500 while championship contenders Jeff Gordon and Brad Keselowski as well as their teams were involved in a post-race fight on pit road after the two clashed in the closing laps at Texas Motor Speedway. .

Vancouver is 0-2-1 over its last three games and has dropped the first two tests of a five-game homestand in regulation. The slide has damaged the clubs already fragile playoff hopes, and the Canucks enter Saturday seven points out of the Western Conferences last postseason berth with only five games left on their schedule. Canucks captain Henrik Sedin is expected back in the lineup tonight after missing four games. The Kings, meanwhile, officially earned a fifth straight trip to the postseason following Wednesdays home win over Phoenix. Vancouver will try to avoid getting swept by the Kings in the season series on Saturday. Los Angeles is 4-0 versus the Canucks this season and has won seven of the last 10 meetings between the clubs. The Kings halted a two-game skid in Vancouver with a 3-2 overtime win at Rogers Arena on Nov. 25. After getting slammed by Anaheim 5-1 to begin this homestand on March 29, the Canucks then dropped a 3-1 decision in Tuesdays tilt against the New York Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist stopped 34 shots to help New York subdue the Canucks on Tuesday. Ryan Kesler had the only goal of the game for Vancouver, while Eddie Lack gave up all three goals on 31 shots in the loss. Lack is expected to get the start this evening. "I thought our team played hard and we had some chances that we just didnt finish," said Vancouver head coach John Tortorella. "I thought wee battled real hard and it was a good game.dddddddddddd" Tortorella went 0-2 against his former team this season, also losing to the Rangers 5-2 in New York on Nov. 30. Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault and Tortorella had switched cities in the offseason after both coaches were fired from their previous jobs. Vancouver fell to 18-13-6 as the home club this season. After tonights game, the Canucks will complete the homestand with tests against Anaheim and Colorado. The Kings have won seven of their last nine games, but the playoff-bound club has dropped two of its past three tilts. One night after clinching its postseason spot with a 4-0 win over the Coyotes, Los Angeles was handed a 2-1 regulation defeat in Thursdays game at San Jose. Antti Niemi stopped 26 shots to help lead the Sharks, who assured themselves of finishing no lower than third in the Pacific Division. Los Angeles is now locked into the third spot in the division and will be the guest in its first- round playoff matchup against either Anaheim or San Jose. Jordan Nolan had the only goal of the game for the Kings. Martin Jones gave up both goals on 21 shots in the loss. Also, L.A. saw defenseman Drew Doughty leave the game in the first period with a possible shoulder injury after checking Tyler Kennedy. Doughty, who was playing in his 199th consecutive game, is questionable for Saturdays tilt. The Kings had an eight-game road winning streak snapped on Thursday. The club is 22-13-3 as the guest this season and is making the second stop on a four- game road trip tonight. ' ' ' |
