SAINT PAUL Authentic Customized Vikings Jerseys , Minn. ¡ª As the Twin Cities were digging out from a record-setting April snowstorm on Monday, the Minnesota Wild were hoping to keep digging out from the hole they created after losing the first two games of their playoff series with the Winnipeg Jets.

But on the day after the Wild finally showed some offense, getting their first win of the series by a 6-2 count on Sunday, their coach cautioned that his team¡¯s status was still plenty urgent heading into Game 4 down two games to one.

¡°We¡¯re still in a desperate situation. We were last night and we are tomorrow,¡± Wild coach Bruce Boudreau said after his team¡¯s practice on Monday. ¡°If we lose (Tuesday), we¡¯re still down 3-1 going into Winnipeg. It¡¯s not a question about feeling good about yourself. We survived.¡±

The Wild clearly enjoyed being at home for the first time in the series and are looking to build upon the success they had in Game 3 as they attempt to even the series.

¡°I don¡¯t think we changed too many things. We really just want to keep things simple,¡± said Wild rookie forward Jordan Greenway, who scored his first NHL goal on Sunday. ¡°We wanted to wear down their D early. I think we played a lot more physical Paul Goldschmidt Jersey , we kind of made the first push. That was key. Going forward I think keeping that physicality and wearing them down, I think more space should open up for us like it did (Sunday) and we should get more chances.¡±

For the Jets, the biggest question remained unanswered after their skate on Monday. Defenseman Tyler Myers left Game 3 in the second period after an awkward collision, first with Wild forward Marcus Foligno and next with the boards near the Winnipeg bench. Jets coach Paul Maurice offered no update on Myers¡¯ status Monday but did reiterate that he didn¡¯t like the hit and expected the league to take a look at Foligno¡¯s actions.

For his part, Foligno noted that he and Myers are friends off the ice from their time as teammates in Buffalo and claimed he had no nefarious intent in the collision. If Myers is unable to play Tuesday, rookie blueliner Tucker Poolman will likely be the new name in the Winnipeg lineup. Beyond that potential transaction, Maurice did not see the need for additional changes with the Jets still in control of the series.

¡°You¡¯re not doing any major adjustments after an NHL season or switching a lot of things up. But there are areas, that when your game is going Connor Williams Jersey , that you can make adjustments from,¡± Maurice said. ¡°The foundation of our game is a certain amount of quickness. We can execute and operate offensively and defensively at a higher rate of speed. We didn¡¯t have that in our game. There weren¡¯t a lot of adjustments to be made off of it.¡±

The Jets will be seeking the first road playoff win in franchise history. The Atlanta Thrashers were 0-2 on the road in the playoffs, and the Jets have now gone 0-3 away from home in the postseason since the move to Winnipeg in 2011.

Draymond Green saw Klay Thompson limping on his tender left ankle a day before Game 2 of the NBA Finals and quickly texted Nick Young to tell him the Golden State Warriors would need big minutes from the backup.

But Golden State¡¯s most durable player and understated star once again managed to play through the pain and scored 20 points to help the Warriors beat Cleveland 122-103 to take a 2-0 series lead Sunday night.

¡±He came out there and gutted through it,¡± Green said. ¡±Even if you saw him take the first lay-up he took in warmups and ran back to the locker room. It¡¯s like he¡¯s not going to have it. Sure enough he did. I mean, that¡¯s just a microcosm of who he is, one of the toughest guys if not the toughest guy I¡¯ve ever played with. He¡¯ll never get credit for it because he¡¯s not going to physically beat you up. But one of the toughest, if not the toughest guy for sure.¡±

Green might be the loudest of Golden State¡¯s four superstars and Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant are the most accomplished. Thompson often flies a bit under the radar, just delivering lockdown defense and long-range shooting that help the Warriors thrive.

He¡¯s so consistent and always available Luis Severino Jersey , having played in a franchise record 100 playoff games without missing a single one, that he sometimes gets overlooked. But after Cleveland¡¯s J.R. Smith awkwardly fell into his left leg in the first half of Game 1, sending Thompson to the locker room following the scary fall, there has been plenty of focus on if he¡¯d be able to play.

He made it back for the rest of Game 1 and scored 24 points in a 124-114 overtime win Thursday before the injury got worse the next day. But he still managed to play in Game 2 and shot 8 for 13, making three 3-pointers to become the sixth player with 300 in a career in the playoffs.

¡±Being on the training table for, it felt like, three straight days. That¡¯s something I¡¯m not used to,¡± Thompson said. ¡±But at this point in the season Barkevious Mingo Jersey Elite , any means necessary. And the ankle feels great. I won¡¯t do much tomorrow and I¡¯ll do a little bit Tuesday. But I¡¯m just going to conserve all I¡¯ve got for Wednesday because I don¡¯t want to play with it. It¡¯s something that you use a lot. I didn¡¯t realize how much you use your ankle until you hurt it ¡­¡±

That drew a quick quip from Curry, who has been plagued by ankle injuries throughout his career.

¡±You should have asked me,¡± Curry said.
