RALEIGH, N.C. -- The Carolina Hurricanes end a five-game homestand Sunday against a team that put them in a bad mood at the start of the season.Across the past month, the Hurricanes figure theyve become a different team since the season-opening loss to the Winnipeg Jets.Its a good redemption game for us, Hurricanes center Jordan Staal said. I think weve learned a lot since that game. Weve done a good job of finding ways to win as of late.When the Jets visit, the game will mark the return to Raleigh for coach Paul Maurice, who had two different stints as coach of the Hurricanes.Maurices team won the Oct. 13 season opener with a 5-4 overtime decision at home, rallying from a three-goal deficit in the final 15 minutes in the third period.We all remember what happened in game one (of the season) and we can use that as motivation, Carolina goaltender Cam Ward said.The outcome turned into a bad memory, though there were positive aspects to a degree for the Hurricanes.A lot of it went the way we wanted, Carolina coach Bill Peters said of last months opener. Weve got to clean up some details. ... Were a much different team now, a better team. We should have a little bit of revenge on our mind.Trying to tack on to a three-game winning streak is also part of Sundays motivation for the Hurricanes, whove defeated Washington, San Jose and Montreal.Weve been beating the top teams in the league and were feeling comfortable with our team, center Victor Rask said.This is a chance for the Hurricanes to extend momentum.Getting that last win here on the homestand is very, very important, defenseman Ron Hainsey said. Sundays game is one we have to be ready for right off the hop.Ward will be in the net again, with Peters saying hes keeping the lineup that has produced.I just feel like Im in a rhythm. Just comfortable and confident with what Im doing, Ward said. Were building some momentum here at home and its important that we respond.This will be the Jets third stop on a five-game road trip. The lost their second game in a row by dropping a 4-1 decision to the Boston Bruins on Saturday night.With a quick turnaround from the game in Boston, Maurice said the plan is to split the goaltending duties, meaning it would be Connor Hellbuycks turn Sunday.Meanwhile, the Jets are anxious to see improved results on power plays. The Jets were 0-for-4 on Saturday night.Weve put a lot of pucks at the net, Maurice said. Were working on other pieces of it.Sundays game will be the fifth in eight days for the Jets.Weve had a pretty hard schedule, said right winger Nikolaj Ehlers, who has had a strong November. For me, its a learning phase. Its exciting to play this much, this is what you want. I feel good out there right now and hopefully I can keep building this.Cheap Basketball Jerseys From China . Kyle Denbrook, a soccer player from Saint Marys University, took the CIS male athlete of the week honour.

"We had to dig deep with our fighting spirit and weve done that," United striker Wayne Rooney said. Wholesale NBA Jerseys .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have placed centre Cody Hodgson on injured reserve and recalled two players from their AHL affiliate in Rochester.The games are still composed of nine innings and 27 outs. There are still 90 feet between bases, and .300 has always been a benchmark of accomplishment for hitters. But one longtime pitcher who started his career in the 1990s laughed off the idea that you could possibly compare the game he played with the brand of baseball that occurred 100 years ago.If you look back at pictures of those games, the catcher is standing up, he said. Do you think that strike zone is the same size as it is now?Nope. This is why measuring players of today against those who played a century ago is ridiculously imprecise, unfair and mostly an empty exercise.But its also a lot of fun.With that caveat: My top 10 players of all time.10. Rickey HendersonWhen Henderson was up for election for the Hall of Fame in 2009, it was shocking ?he was left off the ballots of 28 voters. Its just as stunning that he is not higher on this list. The aim of every game is to score as many runs as possible, and Henderson did that more than anyone -- 2,295 in his career. He reached base more than 5,000 times. He stole 1,406 bases --?over 500 more than Ty Cobb. He hit 297 homers. He won a Gold Glove Award. He is one of the best players of all time.9. Lou GehrigHe played alongside Babe Ruth in the 1920s and 30s, and yet he was so great he managed to distinguish himself long before the onset of the illness that would take his life. Gehrig hit for a high average -- .340 in his career --?and he had about 50 percent more extra-base hits than he did strikeouts. Gehrig finished in the top 10 in the MVP voting in nine seasons, and while playing in seven World Series, he batted .361 with an OPS of more than 1.200. And he didnt miss a game for almost 14 years. Think about that.8. Ty CobbIn some of the oral histories from players of Cobbs generation, there are many references to his personality --?how disliked he was, how difficult he could be. That conversation about Cobb has come to overshadow just how great a player he was, in spite of his other faults, with 4,189 hits and?a .366 career batting average, which is the greatest of all time. Think about this: He won the American League batting title in all but one season from 1907 through 1919, and until Rickey Hendersons arrival, Cobb held the MLB record for stolen bases with 897.7. Stan MusialThe Cardinals Musial formed the most perfect statistic in MLB history. During his career, Musial generated 1,815 hits in home games and 1,815 hits on the road. Thats 3,630 in all, which was the most in National League history before Pete Rose broke it. Stan The Man also ranks in the top 10 all time in runs, RBI and doubles, among others.6. Walter JohnsonHis peers liked and respected him, yet they feaared him as well because of how hard he threw and how he dominated, even while pitching for mostly forgettable teams between 1907 and 1927.dddddddddddd He led the American League in strikeouts in 12 seasons and in ERA?during five seasons, including the year he turned 36. Only Cy Young compiled more victories, and Big Train threw nearly 6,000 innings, rolling on and on.5. Ted WilliamsThere could be a robust argument about who the actual forefathers of this era of analytics were. But all moneyball DNA could probably be traced back to Williams, who seemed to have the earliest understanding of on-base percentage before it was called that. He continues to inspire hitters into the current generation, including Joey Votto. Either he or Barry Bonds should be viewed as the greatest hitters of all time.4. Barry BondsHe might not gain induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame, but if you asked most players from the 90s and early 2000s about the best player they ever saw -- and Ive had a lot of those kinds of conversations with a lot of players -- the vast majority would say Bonds. Tony Gwynn once told me he believed Bonds eyesight was so good that he could identify pitch types while the ball was still in the pitchers hand.3. Babe RuthHis greatest value to baseball wasnt necessarily in his production but in how he captured the imagination of a nation with his power and his personality. He drove baseball beyond the 1919 Black Sox scandal and into a new realm with all of the home runs he hit, creating generations of fans at a time when baseball was, in fact, Americas pastime. But its difficult to put him at the top of this list when he played in an era of segregation.2. Hank AaronAaron will be remembered forever for all of the home runs, of course, and some baseball fans will continue to regard him as the home run king because of Bonds association with performance-enhancing drugs. But he won Gold Gloves, a couple of batting titles, stole 240 bases and finished in the top 10 in the MVP voting in 13 seasons. He scored 2,174?times and drove in a record 2,297 runs. The consistency of his excellence is almost unimaginable now. Think about what it takes to compile 755 homers.1. Willie MaysHe might be as close to a perfect player as weve ever seen in baseball, with the power -- he finished his career third all time in home runs -- and the speed and the defense. Scouts will talk about five-tool players, and Mays was great at everything. He led the National League in homers four times and in steals four times, won 12 Gold Gloves and finished in the top 10 for the MVP 12 times. ' ' '
