Washington, DC (SportsNetwork.com) - Troy Brouwer scored the game-winning goal with just 12.9 seconds to play and the Washington Capitals nabbed a 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2015 Winter Classic from Nationals Park. The game appeared headed to overtime, but a mid-ice faceoff was won by the Capitals and Alex Ovechkin brought it into the Chicago end down the left wing. Ovechkin had his stick broken at the left circle and lost control of the puck, but Brouwer was there for a turnaround shot that beat Corey Crawford for the lead. Braden Holtby then sealed the victory with a tough save on a Patrick Kane shot just before time expired to give the Capitals their second victory in the New Years Day event. Washington had won a 3-1 decision over the Penguins at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh in 2011, and is now the first team to win two games at this annual event. Ovechkin finished the game with a goal and an assist, while Eric Fehr also lit the lamp for the Capitals, who had come into the game having lost two of their last three games. Holtby finished the game with 33 stops. Patrick Sharp and Brandon Saad scored for the Blackhawks, who have lost both of their Winter Classic appearances as the team dropped a 6-4 decision to Detroit at Wrigley Field in 2009. Crawford made 32 saves. . Venus Williams advanced to the ASB Classic final in Auckland on a walkover when fellow American Jamie Hampton withdrew from their semifinal Friday with a right hip injury. .

For the Bombers it has been a combination of things coming together at the most inappropriate moments in time. Quarterback, injuries, Canadian talent or depth and leadership are all issues. Trust me when I say being a Bomber is no fun right now in a city that embraces football the way Winnipeg does. While Buck Pierce will be getting another shot, I think Max Hall does deserve another opportunity.LONDON -- After maintaining he was the "Happy One" during his Chelsea return, Jose Mourinhos combative side is back on display. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger called Mourinhos repeated attempts to downplay Chelseas Premier League title prospects a "fear to fail." At a news conference later Friday, Mourinho snapped back: "He is a specialist in failure. Im not." Wenger, who has been in charge at Arsenal since 1996, has not won a trophy since the 2005 FA Cup. Mourinho called himself the "Special One" at the start of his first spell with Chelsea, which ran from 2004-07, and he led the Blues to their first two English league titles since 1955. Before returning to the west London club last June, Mourinho won the Champions League with Inter Milan and the Spanish league with Real Madrid. "Iff supposedly (Wenger) is right and Im afraid to fail, its because I havent failed many times," Mourinho said.dddddddddddd "Maybe hes right. Maybe Im not used to failing. The reality is he is a specialist. "Eight years without a piece of silverware, thats failure ... if I dont win a trophy in four years, I dont want a new contract, even if the club wants to give me (one). Its as simple as that." Chelsea leads the Premier League with 12 matches remaining, one point ahead of Arsenal. "If we dont win a title in one year, is that a failure? Or if we dont win a title in two years, is that a failure?" Mourinho said. "I have lots of respect for (Wenger) and I think he is a great manager. But when he speaks about failure ... failure is not winning a title in seven or eight years." ' ' ' |
