ANAHEIM
http://www.avalancheshoponline.com/authentic-sergei-boikov-jersey , Calif. (AP) — Although Troy Terry is only five games into his NHL career, he was already something of a shootout legend even before he arrived in Anaheim.When he got his first shootout opportunity for the Ducks on Monday night, Terry broke out the same skills he employed to win two enormous shootouts in the world junior championships last year.Terry sent the crowd home happy — with plenty of help from John Gibson, of course.Terry scored the only goal in the shootout, Gibson made 19 saves and the Ducks celebrated the home opener of their 25th anniversary season with a 3-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings.Jakob Silfverberg scored the tying goal with 11:31 to play, and Hampus Lindholm also scored as the Ducks improved to 3-0-0 for the first time since their 2006-07 Stanley Cup championship season.Terry scored through Jimmy Howard’s legs in his fifth NHL game, and Gibson stopped all three Red Wings shooters.Terry famously scored three times for the U.S. junior team against Russia in a semifinal shootout in Montreal in January 2017. He put the puck past Howard with pretty much the same five-hole shot he used three times on Ilya Samsonov in that reputation-making win.“There’s so much pressure now whenever I jump over the wall to take those,” Terry said. “I’ve kind of been known for scoring five-hole

My brain just goes to one thing.”Terry also scored the only shootout goal in the championship game against Canada to win the world juniors, but he claims no special expertise in shootout skills. Ducks coach Randy Carlyle disagreed, sending out the rookie as his second shooter.“He’s made it pretty easy (to choose him), because he’s been able to score,” Carlyle said. “It was a natural.”Tyler Bertuzzi and Darren Helm scored and Howard stopped 24 shots for the Red Wings, who are winless in their first three games. Detroit couldn’t hold two leads in a game between two young rosters getting NHL experience on the fly.“I think we’re just going to stay the course,” forward Gustav Nyquist said. “We have liked the way we played, especially the first two games. Today we could be a little better with the puck

Detroit spoiled the Mighty Ducks’ debut on Oct. 8, 1993, with a 7-2 victory.After starting this season with two road victories despite an injury-depleted roster, Anaheim finally opened its anniversary season at Honda Center, the Ducks’ home for their entire existence — and much better known to hockey fans as the Pond.But captain Ryan Getzlaf, NHL MVP Corey Perry, Selke Trophy winner Ryan Kesler and goal-scoring forwards Patrick Eaves and Ondrej Kase all missed the home opener due to injury

They were in there and survived, so hopefully they feel good about themselves.”The Ducks held a brief pregame ceremony in the first chapter of a season-long celebration of the history of an expansion franchise named after a kids’ movie as part of the Walt Disney Company’s venture into team sports in the 1990s. Owners Henry and Susan Samueli dropped the ceremonial first puck alongside Michael Eisner, the former Disney chairman who guided the franchise into existence.NOTES: Isac Lundestrom, an 18-year-old Swedish center, made his NHL debut for the Ducks. He is the third-youngest player and youngest forward to make his debut with Anaheim. … D Joe Hicketts returned to the Red Wings’ lineup after Trevor Daley injured himself in Los Angeles on Sunday night. … The healthy Ducks wore the team’s 1993 eggplant-and-jade jerseys during pregame warmups

The slumping Pittsburgh Penguins will likely be without captain Sidney Crosby for about a week with an upper-body injury, head coach Mike Sullivan said on Thursday, per the team's official Twitter account.Being without Crosby is聽one of the the last things the Pens - losers in six of their last seven games - need right now. The 31-year-old is still scoring at rapid paces, with eight goals and 19 points in 16 games this season.Pittsburgh sits at a mere 7-6-1 on the season, and they're third-last in the Eastern Conference right now - only ahead of the New Jersey Devils and Ottawa Senators. Without Crosby for at least a week, the Penguins will need the struggling forwards to help out Evgeni Malkin - who's carried the offense alongside Crosby all season.advertising Credit: Geoff Burke-USA TODAY SportsCrosby obviously has long history with concussions and other long-term injuries, but he's managed to stay relatively healthy over the last five years. Since 2013-14, the Pittsburgh captain has played in at least 75 games each season. The most he's missed in a game over that time? Seven games in 2016-17.Assuming Crosby is out for a week
Cam Atkinson Jersey Kids , that means he'll miss Thursday's contest against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Saturday's road game vs. the Ottawa Senators and next week's home games between the Buffalo Sabres and Dallas Stars.advertisingWhat This MeansPenguins GM Jim Rutherford swapped Carl Hagelin for Tanner Pearson, trying to help the struggling Penguins find their groove again. However, Rutherford noted that he's not a patient man right now, and more trades could be on the way for Pittsburgh.That means he wants the other forwards outside of Crosby and Malkin to start contributing more offensively. Without No. 87, the Pens simply need more out of their top-six forwards.And if that doesn't happen, expect more moves from Mr. Rutherford.
