Subban and Price save Habs, Ovechkin’s hot, Shaw emerges
from a drought, Fantasy tips and more in Scott Cullen’s
Statistically Speaking. HEROES P.K. Subban – Scored the
overtime winner and assisted on Montreal’s earlier goal,
both on the power play, in a 2-1 win over Nashville.
Subban ranks second among defencemen with six power play
goals, has eight points (3 G, 5 A) in the past eight
games, and is among the top possession defenceman,
relative to his teammates. Among the 53 defencemen that
have played at least 750 minutes at 5-on-5 this season:
RELATIVE POSSESSION - D PLAYER TEAM CORSI% RELATIVE
CORSI% Brian Campbell Florida 55.8% +8.1% Dougie Hamilton
Boston 56.4% +6.6% Mark Giordano Calgary 47.5% +5.4%
Duncan Keith Chicago 57.7% +5.4% P.K. Subban Montreal
51.7% +5.0% Alexander Edler Vancouver 53.0% +4.8% Chris
Tanev Vancouver 53.1% +4.7% Tyson Barrie Colorado 46.3%
+4.6% Erik Johnson Colorado 46.3% +4.0% Kevin Shattenkirk
St. Louis 53.8% +3.9% While Subban supplied the power
play offence, Carey Price stopped 36 of 37 shots in
Montreal’s 2-1 win over Nashville. As Travis Yost noted,
Price is the Habs’ backbone. Alex Ovechkin – Scored a
pair of goals in Washington’s 5-4 shootout loss to
Edmonton. Ovi has 11 goals (and four assists) in the past
11 games. He’s one goal off the league lead this season
but, over the past three seasons, it’s not even close.
Andrew Shaw – The Blackhawks winger scored a pair of
goals on 13 shot attempts (8 SOG) with stellar possession
stats (23 shot attempts for, 6 against, 79.3%) in a 6-1
win against Arizona. Shaw had one goal in his previous 22
games. ZEROES Devan Dubnyk – It was a mostly unfortunate
night for the Wild goaltender, as he was pulled after
allowing four goals on 10 shots against Detroit. They
ended up rallying to win once Darcy Kuemper was in, but
that didnt instill much confidence in the Minnesota
goaltending situation. Sedins – Daniel was on for all
four Lightning goals against, and Henrik for three, as
both had sub-40% possession despite starting most of
their shifts in the offensive zone during a 4-1 loss at
Tampa Bay. Moss, McMillan, Chipchura – The Coyotes line
of David Moss, Brandon McMillan and Kyle Chipchura was
beat up by the Blackhawks, posting under 15% possession
as a trio, despite starting half of their shifts in the
offensive zone. LINEUP NEED TO KNOW Kris Letang – The
Penguins’ star defenceman was knocked out of the game by
a hit from behind by Flyers winger Zac Rinaldo. Rinaldo
is facing league discipline, but Letang’s status remains
unknown. Erik Cole – The Stars winger, who has been
productive lately, scoring 10 points (6 G, 4 A) in nine
games this month, left Tuesday’s loss to Boston with an
upper-body injury and could miss some time as a result.
Seth Jones – With Ryan Ellis out of the Nashville
lineup, Jones has played more than 20 minutes in six
straight games, more than 23 minutes in each of the last
three. Brandon Manning – Injuries have decimated the
Flyers blueline, so they called up Manning and he played
17:20 against Pittsburgh, the second-highest time-on-ice
total in his 13 career NHL games. In 36 AHL games,
Manning has 25 points (6 G, 19 A) and a plus-5 rating
with 86 penalty minutes. SHORT SHIFTS Canadiens LW Alex
Galchenyuk had a goal and an assist against Nashville,
giving him 13 points (6 G, 7 A) in the past 14 games…
Capitals D John Carlson had two assists in a 5-4 shootout
loss to Edmonton, and has 12 points (1 G, 11 A) in the
past 15 games…Capitals D Mike Green also had a pair of
assists against Edmonton, giving him 15 points (1 G, 14
A) in his past 16 games…Wild LW Zach Parise scored two
goals in a 5-4 shootout win against Detroit, giving him
five goals in the past four games…Red Wings RW Gustav
Nyquist registered a goal and an assist at Minnesota, and
has 17 points (5 G, 12 A) in the past 14 games…Red Wings
C Henrik Zetterberg had three assists against the Wild,
giving him eight points (4 G, 4 A) in the past three
games…Flyers LW Chris VandeVelde scored a goal in the 3-
2 overtime win against Pittsburgh and has five points (4
G, 1 A) in the past six games…Blackhawks LW Bryan
Bickell put up a couple of assists in a 6-1 win against
Arizona; he has 10 points (5 G, 5 A) in his past 10
games…Blackhawks RW Patrick Kane had a goal (the 200th
of his career) and two assists in the win over Arizona,
giving him nine points (3 G, 6 A) in the past six games…
Blackhawks C Brad Richards had a pair of assists in the
win, and has nine points (2 G, 7 A) in his past eight
games…Blackhawks rookie C Teuvo Teravainen had a goal
and an assist, his first multi-point game, against the
Coyotes…Capitals LW Jason Chimera had an outstanding
possession game (22 shot attempts for, 2 against, 91.7%)
in the loss to Edmonton…Stars C Tyler Seguin failed to
score, but registered 17 shot attempts (9 SOG) in a 3-1
loss to Boston...Lightning G Ben Bishop turned aside 27
of 28 shots in a 4-1 win against Vancouver…Bruins G
Tuukka Rask had 36 saves on 37 shots in a 3-1 win at
Dallas. FIRSTS Teemu Pulkkinen – In his ninth career NHL
game (and sixth game this season), the Detroit winger
notched his first career goal against Minnesota. The 2010
fourth-round pick was tearing up the AHL, with 39 points
(20 G, 19 A) in 33 games when he got recalled. Luke
Witkowski – As injuries have taken Matt Carle and Radko
Gudas from the Tampa Bay lineup, Witkowski, a 2008 sixth-
round pick, made his NHL debut for the Lightning against
Vancouver. He held his own (62.5% of even-strength shot
attempts) in 14:29 of ice time. FANTASY FOCUS There are
six games on the schedule for the last night of games
before the All-Star break; here are some players to
consider plugging into your lineup: Clarke MacArthur –
He hasn’t recorded a point in the last three games, so
he’s due (facing his former team), and had seven points
(4 G, 3 A) in the previous eight games. Teuvo Teravainen
– The skilled Blackhawks rookie is still learning the
ropes, but has a chance to produce even in a sheltered
role, for Chicago. Nathan MacKinnon – It’s been a
frustrating ride for the second-year Avalanche forward,
but MacKinnon is generating shots (24 SOG in the past six
games) and with more shots, goals will follow. Patrick
Maroon – In the plum spot on left wing with Ryan Getzlaf
and Corey Perry, Maroon has five points (1 G, 4 A) in the
past four games. Much of the data included comes from

Denver Broncos are shuffling their offensive line this
off-season and Orlando Franklin provided some insight
into their plans Monday by tweeting that hes moving from
right tackle to left guard.COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Michael Sam
was just another recruit when he left his small Texas
hometown and arrived in Missouri. Playing for the Tigers,
he turned into a private loquacious leader ready to make
a trailblazing announcement. The defensive star wants to
become the first openly gay NFL player. "I told him: This
is going to be mammoth," coach Gary Pinkel said Monday, a
day after Sam came out to the world. "I dont have a word,
OK, for how big this is going to be." Its a bigger deal
for the older generation. Sams teammates and
acquaintances easily made the adjustment, plus he proved
himself on the field. "Hes a leader," former 49ers great
running back Roger Craig said. "I would definitely
welcome him on my team. Id play with him any day. I like
people who stand up for themselves." Sam revealed he was
gay at one of the football teams get-acquainted dinners
last summer hosted by Pinkel and assistant coaches. The
next day, Pinkel said, Sam told the entire team.
Realizing the enormity of the situation, Pinkel left the
next move up to the senior who blossomed into one of the
best defensive ends in the country -- and one surrounded
by teammates who didnt worry one bit about sexual
orientation or reveal his secret until he came out on
Sunday. Athletes across the campus approve. "Love is
love," basketball guard Jordan Clarkson said. "Thats
their personal life." Pinkel, athletic director Mike
Alden and other school officials applauded Sams courage
Monday at Faurot Field. As a backdrop, the first two
letters of Sams last name were etched in snow to join the
giant "M" just beyond the north end zone. "Pretty cool,"
Pinkel said. Coaches and Sam agreed that making an
announcement during the season might be a distraction. It
was Sams call to skip all the weekly media days and
postgame news conferences, too, the better to avoid the
risk of the topic coming up. Sam broke his silence prior
to the Cotton Bowl and the conversation stayed on
football, just like he wanted. Sam was prompted to make
his decision to come out after the Senior Bowl, where it
became apparent the players sexual orientation was widely
known. This meant a declaration just days before the NFL
ccombine and shouldering the pressure that goes along
with the historic declaration.dddddddddddd "Its very
clear that everybody in the NFL knew," said Howard
Bragman, a consultant hired by Sams agent to help manage
the announcement in the media. The NFL and many others,
including the White House, publicly applauded Sams
decision. President Barack Obamas spokesman, first lady
Michelle Obama and Vice-President Joe Biden all called
him a courageous and inspirational athlete. But now,
after a few high-profile interviews, its back to silent
Sam. The fifth level of the stadium was jammed with
dozens of reporters for Mondays news conference but there
was no sign of the star attraction. Bragman said Sam was
travelling Monday to a camp at an undisclosed location
where hell prepare for the combine. Though hes been a
most reticent public speaker, Pinkel described Sam as a
virtual chatterbox. "He drove me crazy a lot of times, he
doesnt shut up sometimes," Pinkel said with a chuckle.
"He talks and talks and talks. "You always know hes in
with my secretary because I can hear him and I have to
close the door -- I cant concentrate." Sam arrived at
Missouri without fanfare. Rivals.com gave him just two
stars when he was coming out of Hitchcock High School. He
had 10 career starts before his breakout senior season.
The All-America defensive end led the Southeastern
Conference with 11 1/2 sacks and 19 tackles for loss. He
was the co-SEC defensive player of the year. But Sam has
been projected as a mid-level NFL draft pick, probably
because hes a bit undersized at 6-foot-2 and 255 pounds
and is likely headed for a transition to outside
linebacker. Pinkel doesnt think the announcement will
hurt Sams draft status. "Our team was able to move past
it and work together," defensive line coach Craig
Kuligowski said. "So why shouldnt a bunch of professional
football players be able to do the same thing?" There
have been a few NFL players who have come out after their
playing days, including Kwame Harris and Dave Kopay.
"There will be some adjustments that will have to be
made, sure," Craig said. "I think it will be a learning
curve for the whole league."
