Q: Team Canada announces their Olympic roster three weeks from today. Who is general manager Steve Yzerman watching? LeBrun: Over the last 48 hours, hes taken in the home-and-home between the Dallas Stars and Colorado Avalanche with Jamie Benn and Matt Duchene being the obvious targets. When you compete in something as long as I have -- remember, I swam in my first Olympics before I was old enough to drive -- you see just about everything. The aging superstar chasing one more Olympic gold, the teenage record holder who everyone believes is the next big thing. Some succeed. Most fail. Maybe theyre not good enough, dont want to put in the work, or dont care about winning enough to truly push their body to its limit.And then theres Katie Ledecky. It was two years before the 2012 London Games when I first started paying attention to her. Every time she got in the water, it didnt matter what time of year it was, how rested she was, where she was swimming, who she was swimming against -- she was cranking best times, national records. It was incredible. I remember thinking, this girl might be the real deal.But I wanted to see it on the big, big stage. Could she do it in the Olympics?In London, Katie was just 15 years old -- the same age I was at my first Olympics in Sydney. She was quiet, kind of kept to herself. But on the final day of competition, in the 800 freestyle, she won gold by more than four seconds. I won gold in the 100 fly earlier that night and had just received my medal when Katies event began. As I was walking through the interview area, reporters began asking me questions that I didnt even answer. Instead, I pointed to the monitor where Katie was crushing it.This past summer in Rio, she backed it up with four more golds. Right now, shes untouchable. There are swimmers who might push her, but no one is going to beat her. I remember what that feeling was like; its a great place to be. You know that if you put in the work, the reward is going to be there at the end. The challenge becomes longevity. How long can you keep it up?But no one is better prepared for this than Katie. Shes that much better than everybody else. When I watcch her swim, its like an art. Ron Francis Jersey. Its beautiful. She maximizes her distance per stroke. Its just something you dont see in swimming. Beyond that, shes one of the hardest-working people Ive ever seen in training camp. She will swim with the guys and make them look like theyre standing still. I did a set with her once in Colorado Springs, Colorado, at the Olympic Training Center. We were supposed to go together, but I was thrilled when she decided to lead a lane because I didnt want to get my ass whipped. Shes just special.And beyond that, mentally, she never lets up. She goes all out the entire race. Her mentality is, Im going to crush this field as much as I possibly can. In the first 100 meters, the race is over. Hell, in the first 50 its over. She makes the statement and then backs it up. Its just so remarkable.Yet away from the pool, with her teammates, shes as laid back as anyone. Shes talking, laughing, messing around. Then she gives a few high-fives, goes out and absolutely destroys the rest of the world. Its amazing to watch. You just dont see people like her in the sport. I know. And for me to have shared part of my career with someone so dominant and dedicated, and yet still so determined, is an honor. I mean it. Im a fan of this sport as much as anyone. And I cant wait to see what she does next.More on Katie Ledecky? What makes Olympic swimmer Katie Ledecky remarkable Story ?? On this night, appropriately, Ledecky eclipses Phelps?Story ??

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Jets Stanley Cup Jerseys . -- Nothing seemed to be going right for Stanford until cornerback Quenton Meeks changed the momentum when he intercepted a pass by Notre Dames DeShone Kizer and returned it 50 yards for a touchdown.Wide receiver JJ Arcega-Whiteside recovered a fumble in the end zone after Bryce Love fumbled on the goal line to cap the comeback in a 17-10 victory Saturday night as Stanford rallied back from a 10-point deficit.Stanford coach David Shaw said the interception by Meeks was key.Quenton Meeks is a ball hawk. We saw that last year, Shaw said. Hes got great instincts on top of his physical tools. Hes long, hes physical, hes smart, and hes got a feel for the ball.The Irish defense, which had forced three previous turnovers in their own territory, had a chance to recover the fumble but linebacker Nyles Morgan tried to scoop up the ball. When he failed to pick it up, Arcega-White recovered it. Stanford, playing without injured Christian McCaffrey, added a 2-point conversion on a pitch to Love, who ran in untouched.Shaw said the Cardinal never stopped fighting.For us, the second-half mantra that we continued to say was keep playing hard, good things happen. Just keep playing hard. Dont worry about the last play, dont worry about the mistake you just made, just keep playing hard, and we started to feel it on the sidelines, Stanford coach David Shaw said.It was the opposite for the Irish, who couldnt do much right in the second half.We made some mistakes and we couldnt get the momentum back, Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said.Stanford (4-2), which started the season ranked No. 8, averted losing three straight for the first time since 2007. The Irish (2-5) ranked No. 10 in the preseason, lost a third straight home game for the first time since 2007.Notre Dame had a chance to tie it in the closing seconds. But DeShone Kizer couldnt get a pass off on fourth-and-10 from the 14. He was about to be sacked and he appeared to try to pitch the ball to left guard Quenton Nelson, but the officials ruled it a fumble and blew the ball dead. It was the fourth time this season where the Irish had a chance to tie or win the game on the final possession and couldnt do it.Shaw said the play of the defense was key.Meeks, who missed the previous two games with an injury, picked off Kizer on the first possession of the second half to cut the score to 10-7. Once the ball was in the air, I felt it was mine, he said. I just didnt regard him (the receiver) and just went and got the ball, and my next thought was the end zone.Malik Zaire replaced Kizer for three possessions but couldnt get anything going and the Irish gave up a safety when a snap from center Sam Mustipher, who had three bad snaps in the hurricane last week against North Carolina State, snapped the ball through the end zone.Kelly said Kizer wasnt injured, he was just looking for a spark.I just felt like it was important to try to get some energy back, he said. I thought going to Malik would do that.THE TAKEAWAYStanford: The Cardinal, who had one offensive touchdown in each of their last three games, continued to struggle offensively but came up with the big play when it needed it. Stanford drove 47 yards on 12 plays on its opening possession, but Conrad Ukropinas 45-yard field goal attempt bounced off the upright.Notre Dame: The Irish defense, which had given up at least 30 points to the first four Power 5 opponents it faced this season, held an opponent to 17 points or less for a second week.MCCAFFREY INJURYShaw said McCaffrey wasnt close to be ready to play. Now, theres a good shot next week. Theres a chance next week. Just couldnt go today, Shaw said.KELLY ANNOYEDKelly became annoyed at something a Stanford strength coach said to him after the game. Asked what he said, Kelly said: Bye-bye. Asked if that was all, Kelly said: Yeah, bye-bye.UP NEXTStanford: The Cardinal return to Pac-12 play with a home game against Colorado next Saturday, a team it has beaten five straight times.Notre Dame: The Irish get the week off before hosting No. 16 Miami on Oct. 29. Josh Morrissey Stanley Cup Jersey . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. Tobias Enstrom Stanley Cup Jersey . Burke is expected to miss two to three months after breaking a finger in the teams third preseason game. Tinsley, a 10-year veteran, spent the last two seasons in Utah, where the point guard averaged 3. http://www.cheapwinnipegjetsjerseys.us/brandon-tanev-stanley-cup-jersey/ .ca! Kerry, Two nights after the Scott-Eriksson incident in Buffalo, the Bruins returned home to play San Jose. In that game, Zdeno Chara put a check on Tommy Wingels that clearly targeted his head. METAIRIE, La. -- First-round draft pick Sheldon Rankins will miss at least seven games after the New Orleans Saints placed the defensive tackle on injured reserve with a broken fibula Monday.Rankins was expected to miss six to eight weeks when he suffered the injury during practice three weeks ago. This will add at least a few weeks to that timetable.Teams are allowed to activate one player off of their injured reserve list per season -- but that player cannot return to practice for at least six weeks and cannot play in a game for at least eight weeks.As part of a new NFL rule this year, teams dont have to designate which player will return from the IR list until he is ready to be activated. Ben Chiarot Stanley Cup Jersey. .Rankins injury dealt a big blow to a New Orleans defense that ranked among the worst in NFL history in some categories last year. The 12th overall pick out of Louisville, Rankins had 14 sacks and 26.5 tackles for loss over the past two years.Fortunately, New Orleans has a ready-made replacement in veteran Nick Fairley, another pass-rushing DT whom they signed in free agency this year.The Saints also waived DT Ashaad Mabry on Monday and re-signed RB Travaris Cadet and DE Darryl Tapp. Cheap NFL Jerseys China China NFL Hoodies Wholesale Jerseys 2020 White NFL Jerseys Cheap Cheap Jerseys 2019 Cheap Stitched JerseysWholesale Stitched Jerseys ' ' '

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Derwin James Jersey . -- The last time Mitch Trubisky threw a pass in Virginias Scott Stadium, two years ago, it was his only play of the game and he hit T.J. Thorpe with less than a minute to play to give North Carolina a victory.He needed no such dramatics Saturday, throwing three touchdown passes as the No. 22 Tar Heels rode his accurate arm and a strong performance by their defense to a 35-14 victory, their seventh in a row in the series and ninth consecutive in true road games.The defense played lights out, Trubisky said after throwing for 310 yards. They played a really great game. The second half we had a little bit better tempo and we were moving them. We converted some more third downs and we got some more rhythm.Trubisky hit Bug Howard for 40 yards on a trick play, Thomas Jackson for 10 yards and Austin Proehl for 46 yards for touchdowns for the Tar Heels (6-2, 4-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), and the trick play had everyone smiling at how well it worked. On the play, North Carolina set up in a wildcat formation, handed the ball off to wide receiver Ryan Switzer and he pitched it to Trubisky, who just had to make the throw.Ive been waiting for them to call it, he said of the play, which has been in the game plan for a few weeks.The Cavaliers (2-5, 1-2) got their first touchdown on a trick play, too. They lined up for a field goal, had the entire offensive line split out far to the left, and snapper Evan Butts threw the snap 30 yards to his left to Matt Johns, the holder now acting as the quarterback.Johns quickly hit Butts for an 11-yard touchdown strike, but Virginia didnt score again until just 9:01 remained.The Tar Heels led 14-7 at halftime and limited Virginia to 39 yards in the third quarter while opening a 28-7 lead.Thats when we felt like we got control of the game, Tar Heels coach Larry Fedora said. We hated giving up that 13-play drive (for Virginias second touchdown), because at that point, we felt like if we could put the ball in the end zone again, then we could put it away.Elijah Hood ran for 107 yards and a 4-yard touchdown, and T.J. Logan scored on a 4-yard run for UNC.Virginia has lost two in a row, making the upbeat feeling of a two-game winning streak before that seem a distant memory.Coach Bronco Mendenhall lifted quarterback Kurt Benkert in the fourth quarter, using backup Conner Brewer.I felt it was necessary with the pressure that was going on Benkert, starting from the second half of the Pitt game through this game, it was wise just to have his step back and have him see it from a different perspective and take a breath and regroup, Mendenhall said.THE TAKEAWAYNorth Carolina: The Tar Heels moved back ahead of Virginia Tech in the Coastal Division race by virtue of having one more victory. The Hokies (3-1 in division), however, beat UNC three weeks ago, so they hold the tiebreaker, but either Virginia Tech or Pittsburgh (2-1 in division play) will fall off the pace in the loss column when they meet Thursday night at Heinz Field. The Tar Heels beat the Panthers 37-36 earlier this month on Trubiskys TD pass with 0:02 remaining.Virginia: Virginia has now struggled to much offensively for three consecutive halves, including the second half against Pitt last week. The coaches also called several running plays on third-and-medium plays, curious because the Cavaliers could already be playing in nothing-to-lose mode if a bowl game remains their goal. They now need to win four of their last five to make their first bowl game since 2011.POLL IMPLICATIONSIf things go according to chalk, the Tar Heels should be favored in every game they have left and climb in the Top 25 .They still have to face Georgia Tech at home, play at Duke, host The Citadel and finish at North Carolina State.UP NEXTNorth Carolina returns home to face struggling Georgia Tech, which has lost the last two games in the series.Virginia wraps up a three-game homestand at home against No. 7 Louisville and Heisman Trophy contender Lamar Jackson.Justin Jones Jersey . Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview. "We just dont know what the results from Torino will be," Budgett said. Dylan Cantrell Jersey . -- Jimmie Johnson held off a teammate, passed a pair of Hall of Famers, and dominated once more at Dover. http://www.authenticchargersshopnfl.com/ . Giroud, who wasnt in the starting lineup for two matches after allegations about his private life and a decline in form, scored twice in the first half. Tomas Rosickys chip made it 3-0 before half time at Emirates Stadium, while defender Laurent Koscielny scored an unmarked header in the second half.

That made it an early night -- of sorts -- for the fans who came out to watch the three-time gold medalist play at midnight.It was the third time in four Olympic matches that Walsh Jennings and Ross were slotted for the midnight match -- the better to showcase them on American television. While previous matches had pockets of empty seats -- this one was packed.Among those in the stands: U.S. comedian and Ghostbusters star Leslie Jones, who draped an American flag around her shoulders and led her section in cheering.---12:20 p.m.Paolo Nicolai and Daniele Lupo have won an all-Italian battle for a spot in the beach volleyball quarterfinals.The two Italians wearing white beat Adrian Carambula and Alex Ranghieri, in blue, 21-12, 23-21 on Friday night.Carambula wowed the crowd with his high, spinning Skyball serve.

Thiam only set the 24th best time over the 200 meters and fell back to second with 3,985.Akela Jones of Barbados was third with 3,964.The heptathlon was supposed to be a battle between Ennis-Hill and Brianne Theisen-Eaton but the Canadian was disappointing throughout the day and was in sixth position with 3,871 points.---11:20 p.m.Switzerlands Martina Hingis and Timea Bacsinszky will face Russias Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina for the tennis gold medal in womens doubles Sunday.

Then, Ervin walked away from swimming, skipping the next two Olympics while he embarked on a journey to find his purpose in life.Turns out, it was swimming all along. He returned to make the American team in 2012, but failed to win a medal in London. Now, improbably, hes back on the top of the podium again.---11:05 p.m.MEDAL ALERT: Michelle Carter of the United States upset favorite Valerie Adams in womens shot put with a throw of 20.63 meters.

Meyer took the 200, 400 and 800 at the 1968 Mexico Games, and Ledecky matched that performance with a couple of world records as well.Ledecky was merely racing the clock as she powered away from the field to touch in 8 minutes, 4.79 seconds, eclipsing the mark 8:06.68 that she set at a grand prix meet in Texas back in January.Then she waited for the rest of the field to finish.Jazz Karlin finally touched in 8:16.17 to claim the silver, just ahead of Hungarys Boglarka Kapas grabbing the bronze in 8:16.37.Some 23 seconds after Ledecky touched the wall, the last of the eight finalists finally got to the end of the grueling race.---10:45 p.m.Britains track and field Super Saturday is still on -- barely.Defending long jump champion Greg Rutherford was a jump away from elimination after two fouls, but he scraped through on his last attempt with a mark of 7.90 meters for 10th best position as only a dozen were allowed into Saturdays final.Rutherford won the long jump in London, within that crazy hour of athletics when fellow-Britons Mo Farah won the 10,000 meters and Jessica Ennis-Hill the heptathlon for one of the greatest moments in British sporting history.All three could do it again on Saturday.Ennis-Hill is leading the heptathlon after four of seven events. And Farah is a strong favorite to extend his title.---10:45 p.m.LaShawn Merritt, Kirani James and Wayde van Niekerk all came through their track and field heats comfortably in the 400 meters, an event thats shaping up to be a titanic battle between those three.Merritt, the 2008 Olympic champion, looked good in winning his heat in 45.28 seconds from lane eight.The American didnt seem to mind the sparse crowd at Rio de Janeiros Olympic Stadium, saying 45.2, not too much energy put out. Great track, nice atmosphere. I feel good.Defending Olympic champion Kirani James ran the fastest time of the heats with 44.93.

So, unless Phelps decides to come out of retirement again, his final individual race at the Olympics will go down as a silver. He still has a chance to win his 23rd gold medal in his final race of the Olympics, the 4x100 medley relay.Phelps was sixth at the turn and Schooling -- almost exactly a decade younger than the 31-year-old American -- wouldnt let him pull off one of his patented comebacks on the return lap.
