He was the best player on the ice again.Left winger Justin Abdelkader returned Thursday after missing two games with a lower-body injury, but left winger Thomas Vanek did not play because of a lower-body injury and is day-to-day, Detroit general manager Ken Holland told www.mlive.com.Injuries are a big part of Bostons issues.Star center Patrice Bergeron (lower-body injury), goalies Tuukka Rask (lower-body injury) and Anton Khudobin (hand/wrist/arm) and right winger David Backes (elbow) are all on the injured list. Rask did practice on Friday.(Rask) practiced today, and hes coming on the trip. So well see, Bruins coach Claude Julien said on www.chowderandchampions.com. Hes feeling good, so well go day-by-day. He practiced well today and if hes good tomorrow then there are no issues there. He looked good to me today, so well make that decision.Weve gone this far with him, so were going to make sure we make the right decision, and not the reckless one.Malcolm Subban and Zane McIntyre have been handling the goaltending chores.

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. -- Always B Miki and Freaky Feet Pete join 2015 Horse of the Year Wiggle It Jiggleit on Saturday in the $500,000 Ben Franklin Stakes at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono.This will be the first time all three horses have been in the same race.Wiggle It Jiggleit is the 5-2 morning line favorite.

But I dont worry about that until afterwards. My goal is to be the first one across the finish line. The time? Well take that when it comes.Wiggle It Jiggleit co-owner George Teague Jr. understands the challenge.Im not going to kid you, Id rather be 1-9 going for $500,000 than have to race those other two horses, he said. Id be stupid to say anything differently. But to be a part of this, its definitely a lot of fun. Im all pumped up. I love our chances.
