The NHL added yet another name to the growing list of suspended players this season on Wednesday. New Balance 996 Australia . Pittsburgh Penguins defenceman Deryk Engelland was suspended five games by the NHL for an illegal hit to the head on Detroit Red Wings forward Justin Abdelkader on Saturday. In the first period of the Penguins 4-1 victory over the Red Wings, Engelland landed a shoulder to the head of Abdelkader as he was cutting across the ice. Engelland was given a five-minute major and ejected from the game with a match penalty for the illegal hit. Abdelkader struggled to get back to his feet and had to be helped off the ice by his teammates, he did not return to the game. New Balance 999 Australia .The rookie goalie made 36 saves to help the Calgary Flames blank their Pacific Division rivals 1-0 on Saturday following a 48-hour ordeal that included lost baggage, a cancelled flight and a new pair of contact lenses. New Balance 576 Australia . The two-time Olympic halfpipe gold medallist informed ESPN on Monday he plans to compete in Apsen, Colo. http://www.nbalanceshoesaustralia.com/new-balance-574-outside-in.html . The Spanish champions decision not to sign a defender during the January transfer window may have backfired after Valencia took advantage of a lethargic, uninspired effort by its hosts at the Camp Nou, where former Spain coach Luis Aragones -- who previously coached the Catalan side -- was honoured after his death on Saturday.ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - The Colorado Avalanche were deflated after their blowout loss in the season opener.Their egos, especially. And maybe not a bad thing, either.Coach Patrick Roy thinks maybe the success of last season went straight to their heads, as did all the preseason hype proclaiming them contenders again in the Western Conference.The Avs didnt play with their usual chip on the shoulder throughout the preseason, and it carried over when they were outhustled and outshot in a 5-0 loss at Minnesota on Thursday.Roy is hoping to see a different team a€” one resembling the squad that captured the Central Division last season a€” on the ice Saturday night for the home-opener against the Wild.All summer long, everybody said how nice we were, how good we were, how special we were, how everybody was excited about the team, how everybody was excited about this year, said Roy, whose team tied a franchise record with 52 wins. We forgot how hard we worked last year to be the team we were. Thats what we have to do.This is a wake-up call.The Wild had a franchise-record 48 shots on goal and chased goaltender Semyon Varlamov from the game. When asked if Varlamov would be in net again Saturday, Roy chuckled. Not because his goaltenders performance was laughable, but because Varlamov was actually solid in spite of the score.Hes the reason why it was only 5-0, Roy said.Just like last season, Roys trying to keep an even-keel approach. No highs after big wins and no eruptions after losses like this one. The team was scheduled to have a day off the ice on Friday, so Roy kept it that way. The players worked out, watched film and then went home.However, Roy will alter his lineup. Hes pairing Jarome Iginla with Matt Duchene and Ryan OReilly on one line. The second line will feature Alex Tanguay, Nathan MacKinnon and Gabriel Landeskog.Simply trying to find a spark just as Roy did all during the preseason when his team went 1-5-2. New Balance Australia. .Its only one game, but we have to learn from that game, Roy said. We cannot push it aside and say, Hey, lets forget about it.Roys coaching debut last season was quite memorable a€” he tried to push through a glass partition to get to Anaheim coach Bruce Boudreau. And that was after a 6-1 win.The team took on the persona of their fiery coach and got off to a sizzling 14-2 start.But the way they lost this opener a€” struggling with possession and outraced down the ice a€” made for a long plane ride back to Denver.Its always quiet after a loss, but last night guys were kind of talking to each other on the plane and chit-chatting about what really happened and what are we going to do to get better, Landeskog said. Everybody has a right to be (mad) and disappointed, but everybodys got to be able to step back and look at what we really did and what we didnt do and what we have to do to be a better team.Like putting the past behind.We have to know that we cant just show up and put the gear on and were going to be a good team, said Duchene, whose team was knocked out of the post-season by the Wild by an overtime goal in Game 7. We have to do what we did last year a€” come to every game with enthusiasm and hard work and excitement. Last night, we almost seemed a little tentative.This team is a trendy pick to possibly make an even deeper post-season run. The Avs brought in veterans like Brad Stuart, Daniel Briere and Iginla to not only improve the roster, but help in tough situations like this.A lot of us didnt want the puck last night, Duchene said. There were times when we tried to pass the problem off to someone else. We just have to take control and be loose and just play. Theres no reason to be nervous or uptight about trying to duplicate what we did last year.We just have to relax and play hockey, work hard and have fun. Thats what we did last year.
