NEWARK, N.
Wholesale NFL Jerseys .J. -- Jaromir Jagr has
hit so many NHL milestones this season for the New Jersey Devils that he is
starting to downplay them. Jagr tied another one on Friday night, setting up two
goals to match former teammate Mario Lemieux for 10th on the NHLs career assists
in a 2-1 win that sent the Washington Capitals to their seventh straight loss.
Jagrs response to the achievement was expected. "I dont know," the remarkable
41-year-old Czech said. "I dont pay attention." Jagr is having a season that
makes it hard not to pay attention. Besides being the Devils leading scorer (16
goals, 26 assists), he has replaced Gordie Howe as the NHLs all-time leader in
game-winning goals (122), moved past Mark Messier for seventh place all-time in
goals (697) and now tied Lemieux with 1,033 assists, seven behind Marcel Dionne.
Jagr was able to joke about the assists, noting: "Im a great goal scorer." He
was not thrilled about the game, which was the Devils final one before Sundays
outdoor game at Yankee Stadium against the Rangers. "We didnt play well," Jagr
said. "Were lucky we got two points. They are struggling and we didnt score when
we had the chance. We didnt play very well and it almost cost us a game."
Stephen Gionta and Adam Henrique scored for New Jersey and Cory Schneider
continue his stellar play in net, stopping 30 shots to give New Jersey its
second straight win and points in eight of nine games. Jason Chimera scored for
the Capitals, whose seven-game slide is their longest since late 2010. This was
the second game they played without All-Star Alex Ovechkin, out with a
lower-body injury. "I thought we had them on their heels," Schneider said. "They
are a good team and they need points so they came out hard. They have some skill
players, even without Ovechkin." Washington, which was starting a season-high
five game road trip, has now lost 13 of 16, and it has scored eight goals during
the current losing streak. The Devils, who had their biggest goal output since
2010 in a 7-1 win over St. Louis on Tuesday, didnt wait long to take the lead
against Washington. Capitals defenceman Dmitry Orlov had a puck bounce over his
stick in the Devils zone and Gionta pushed the puck to Jagr, who returned it to
him. The centre skated the puck into the Washington zone and beat goaltender
Michal Neuvirth with a shot from the right circle that somehow squirted through
a crease between his elbow and body. Jagrs other assist was marvelous. With the
Devils on a power play, they skated the puck up the ice with a string of passes.
Jagr took the next to last one from Travis Zajac to the left of Neuvirth and
sent a quick cross-crease pass to Henrique for a slam dunk into an empty net.
"Once Jags got it, I tried to back off and give myself a little room if the puck
bounced," Henrique said. "It was a great play by him. Merry Christmas!"
Schneider, who came into the game with a 0.96 goals against average in his last
five starts, didnt let the Capitals on the board until Chimera deflected a point
shot by John Erskine into the net midway through the final period. Washington
had its chances before that. Schneider stopped a short-handed breakaway by
Jay Beagle in the second period and Brooks Laich had a shot later in the session
hit off the goalpost. "We had three short-handed breakaways and we didnt score,"
Washington coach Adam Oates said. "He held them in and made the saves when he
needed to. We made saves, too. You need execution, and the mistakes are not
blatant, but, no mistakes, its still the NHL, and you get burned." Neuvirth was
almost as good as Schneider. He finished with 28 saves and was outstanding
during the Devils five power plays. NOTES: Giontas third tally of the season
ended a 13-game goal drought. ...Washington is 1-of-24 on the power play in the
last eight games. ...Chimera played his 300th game for the Capitals.

NBA China Jerseys . -- Kevin Harvick didnt simply have his hands
full with the rest of the Sprint Cup field Sunday.ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - The photo
emblazoned on the front of Chris Harris Jr.s navy sweat shirt was a tribute to
his favourite Denver Broncos cornerback — himself, of course.And the No fly zone
caption underneath the image was fitting, too, since his side of the field has
certainly become restricted air space, with QBs shying away from him.Still,
Harris cover skills fly under the radar, hardly mentioned in the same breath as
other elite defensive backs around the league. But he certainly got paid like
one last week when the Broncos rewarded him with a five-year contract extension
worth $42.5 million.Thats actually a hometown discount for an organization that
took a chance on the undrafted college free agent out of Kansas in 2011. Had
Harris hit free agency in the off-season, he wouldve earned more.Just ask him.I
definitely could have gotten more off the open market, laughed the 25-year-old
Harris, who had his wife and infant daughter in the audience Monday at a news
conference to announce his extension. I know that, we all know that, but its not
all about money at the end of the day. Its about being happy, and Im
satisfied.Well, satisfied everywhere but on the field, anyway. Because he plays
with an attitude after going undrafted, which he thinks is the root cause as to
why he doesnt receive as much recognition as, say, a Richard Sherman or a
Darrelle Revis or even his teammate — in Denver and at Kansas — Aqib Talib.This
could be the season where Harris gains more notoriety, though, possibly make his
first Pro Bowl team. Hes having that kind of year for the AFC West champion
Broncos (11-3), with three interceptions and a team-leading 15 passes defended
in limited chances.I always thought once you get your contract, I think thats
when the accolades and all that stuff comes, said Harris, the protege of
recently retired and future Hall of Famer Champ Bailey. But I think people are
still going to see me as an underrated player just because of my size and the
way I came into the league.
Soccer Jerseys China. Thats just something
where I know my whole career Im going to have to deal with that.Broncos boss
John Elway certainly saw something in him. And after only a handful of
practices, too.He stood out and I said, We have something here, Elway recounted.
Since hes been here, hes shown what he can do.Especially last season, when he
turned in a standout season before tearing his left ACL in the Broncos
divisional playoff against the Chargers. He watched the Super Bowl from the
sideline and then underwent surgery.He was back in less than seven months. Hasnt
missed a step, either.Chris just has something in his head and his heart — he
dont like to lose, Talib said. Hes one of the most competitive guys Ive ever
come across in my life.The Broncos have now made quite an investment in their
secondary, locking up Harris and Talib to the tune of nearly $100 million.A
hefty price, but necessary in this quarterback-savvy league.The passing games a
big part of the game right now and so you cant have enough good cover guys,
Elway said. To be able to have two guys like we have in Aqib and now Chris under
contract, its very, very important.Next up for Elway is working out deals for
receiver Demaryius Thomas and tight end Julius Thomas. Looming on the horizon is
hybrid linebacker Von Miller as well.Were hoping that we can get everybody,
Elway said. Its never going to be easy, but Chris was the target to start with
and we were thankful to get that done, so we hope that we can continue to do
that and keep this team together.Im happy for guys like Chris. Im happy for him
because hes the type of guy you want around, a great competitor, tough. It just
gives him confidence to know what we think of him but also know that hes got
that ability to step up and be that kind of leader.___AP Pro Football Writer
