NEW YORK – A pall loomed over the tight quarters of the New York Rangers dressing room Tuesday afternoon, mere hours after their hopes of capturing Lord Stanleys mug dimmed to the very faintest light. Wholesale Air Jordan 1 Ireland . A third straight loss has them staring dead in the eye of elimination and try as they might, belief of some valiant comeback was difficult to summon on this day. The faces were long, sour and glum ahead of Game 4 at MSG on Wednesday night, to be expected in light of a gaping 3-0 series hole. "Im not going to lie to you, its a tough day today," said a particularly downcast Brad Richards, the 34-year-olds dreams of a second Cup fading dramatically after a 3-0 loss in Game 3. "I mean, the goal is to get through today and [Wednesday] will be a Stanley Cup playoff game-day and Im sure everybody will be in a lot better mood, a lot better outlook to try to get in and win a game." "Belief is everything," Martin St. Louis said, his beard speckled with grey in the final days of the postseason. "Right now, its a big mountain to climb but once you get into battle … first shift you get into battle, get into the game, win a game and now its 3-1 and you go from there. You cant look at trying to win four. Youre trying to win one." Despite the appearance of a one-sided series, the Rangers know full well that this Cup Final has been anything but; two overtime games that couldve gone either way followed by Jonathan Quicks brilliance in a Game 3 during which they controlled puck possession. But as Rangers coach Alain Vigneault put it – his mood predictably sour – none of that matters now. One game is all that counts. One more loss and hope of adding the first Cup in New York in 20 years dies a quiet death. "Whatever talk you might use, at the end of the day for us right now, its about one game," Vigneault said. "Thats as simple and logical and realistic as I can put it for you. We have to focus on one game and thats what were going to do." Though it matters little at this point, as stressed by Vigneault, the even nature of the series does offer the slightest bit of belief for the Rangers. Heavy underdogs coming into the series, theyve stood toe-to-toe with the Kings, felled by their opponents will under duress, unmatched depth and an unfortunate bounce or two. "Its not like weve been outplayed here – thats not been the case," said Henrik Lundqvist, appearing most at ease amongst a tense New York group. "Theyve been good, but I think weve been playing pretty good, as well. It comes down to a couple plays here and there. Thats been the difference in these games. But it starts with your belief and it starts with how you approach this game and the games after that. But they know its possible and we know its possible." Only four teams have ever rallied from a 3-0 series deficit, including L.A. in the opening round against San Jose. New York dug out from a 3-1 deficit itself in the second round against the Penguins, winning Game 7 on the road in Pittsburgh. This task, however, opposite maybe the most complete and mentally-tested team in the league, is almost beyond comprehension. Felled by Quicks 32 saves in Game 3, adjustments for the next one are simple for the head coach. "Score," said Vigneault, hopeful that the 28-year-old Kings goaltender wasnt locked in again on Wednesday night. A power play goal for a group thats managed one in 14 opportunities might be of help as well. "You keep repeating the process," added Richards, the Rangers centre held without a point through three games, "firing more on net, and youd expect eventually something is going to go in. For sure, you can always will words and battle and all that, you can talk about it, be better. The third period of Game 1, the ice was tilted, but overall the ice hasnt felt that tilted in this series. Theyre a calm, cool, collected team that doesnt get rattled and it just seems that theyre scoring at the right times and getting big saves at the right times." At their darkest point, the sky notably cloudy in midtown Manhattan, the Rangers were simply trying to summon some kind of light. "Its the waiting and thinking thats the tough part," Richards said. "Weve gotta get back in the battle and see where it goes." Air Jordan 1 Ireland Online . What they did need, the Devils got from Patrik Elias. Elias scored a power-play goal 40 seconds into overtime to give the New Jersey Devils a 3-2 victory over the Dallas Stars.

Sweezy was the one part of the Seattle Seahawks offensive line that had avoided injuries or having to change positions this season.WINNIPEG -- Their last game Saturday wont affect how either team finishes the current CFL season, and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers know theyll be cleaning out their lockers win or lose. You can catch all the action live on TSN at 2:00pm et/11:00 am pt. The Bombers (3-14) will either tie their worst-ever season in the 18-game CFL with a loss or better it by just one game with a win.

, meanwhile, have made the playoffs and have locked up home-field advantage for their semifinal matchup with the Montreal Alouettes. But both still insist they have good reasons for trying hard Saturday afternoon at Investors Group Field. "Every game means something," Hamilton coach Kent Austin said Friday. "Its important that we play well going into the playoffs. . . Weve got guys that coming back off the injury (list) that either came back last week or come back this week that really need to be on the field and be ready to play and play at a high level so we can carry that into the playoff game next week." One might think he would rest starters like quarterback Henry Burris, to avoid the possibility of injury and ensure theyre fresh for their first playoff game. How much action Burris will see isnt something Austin says has yet been determined, but he will play. "Hes starting the game and we dont have a definite plan with him," Austin said. "We want him to feel good about the way hes playing and have another game under his belt and, like other players, be prepared to play next week. This is another game we want to win and we want Henry to play well." The Bombers, meanwhile, are hoping to end a miserable season on a high note. "Regardless of whether or not we win this game, were gooing to have a bad taste in our mouth," said veteran offensive lineman Glenn January. Air Jordan 1 Ireland Sale. "But at least we can feel a sense of pride as we exit the field for the last time in 2013." Some are playing for their jobs and theyve all been told to enjoy themselves, because this team will change next season. "This is the last time that all of us in this room will play together," quarterback Max Hall said they were told this week. "We dont know where any of us are going to be next year. We cant control that but we can control this week and playing the best game we can." Their record has already cost general manager Joe Mack and team president Garth Buchko their jobs. The team has an acting president and an acting general manager. With that as a backdrop, the Bombers are spending much of this week either looking back at their glory days or looking ahead to hosting a Grey Cup in their new $200-million digs. Theyre honouring the 1988 Grey Cup winning team at their final game of the 2013 season. That wasnt their last Grey Cup win but it was close. They won just one more in 1990 and have struck out in five appearances since, their last in 2011. The Bombers said this week theyre bidding to host either the 2015 or 2016 league final at the CFLs newest stadium, although it will lose that honour when Ottawa, Hamilton and finally Regina get new fields in the next few years. Coach Tim Burke says he hasnt heard anything about his future yet but he expects the president and general manager positions will get firmed up before that happens. Until then, Burke says he will carry on wrapping up this season and preparing for the next. "Im getting paid, so Im going to do my job," he said.
