MADRID, Spain -- Real Madrid defender Alvaro Arbeloa will be sidelined for nearly two months by a knee injury, putting the Spain internationals participation at the World Cup in jeopardy. Arbeloa said his right knee is worse than he thought "but if everything goes well, Ill be out from six-to-eight weeks." The 31-year-old right back has been a regular for Spain since it won the 2008 European Championship, but was left out of coach Vicente del Bosques last squad list. Nevertheless, the former Liverpool player hopes to return by May. "Hopefully I make it back in time to play in the Champions League final if Madrid make it and the World Cup if Im picked," Arbeloa said. Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said Friday that Dani Carvajal will take over for Arbeloa, who has one goal from 28 appearances for the Spanish leaders. "Arbeloas absence is a big loss for us," Ancelotti said. "Weve worked with Nacho (Fernandez) at the position in case Carvajal gets injured. Nacho is a quality player who can play that role, as can Sergio Ramos as a last option." Madrid leads Atletico Madrid by three points, and is four points ahead of Barcelona. Unlike former coach Jose Mourinho, Ancelotti is showing an ability to keep Madrids array of talented players and egos content despite having to relegate many to the bench. Spain midfielder Francisco "Isco" Alarcon and Spain under-21 talents Jese Rodriguez and Asier Illarramendi have been reduced to substitute minutes with Madrids attack of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale in great form. "All of the players are ready to play," said Ancelotti, who even compared Isco to former AC Milan player Clarence Seedorf. "I talk to them all and tell them they might just play one minute but it could be the most important minute of the season." The Italian coach also dismissed reports that forward Angel Di Maria preferred to sit out against Malaga rather than risk a booking and subsequent ban that would see the Argentine miss next weeks showdown with Barcelona. "Id be surprised if Di Maria didnt want to play against Malaga. Im not going to choose my teams worrying about bookings or things like that," Ancelotti said. "If Di Maria is shown a card then someone else will fill in for him against Barca, its not a problem." Dwayne Bowe Chiefs Jersey . The Titans announced the deal Tuesday.

Bobrovsky posted a 2-0-1 record with a 1.58 goals-against average and .950 save percentage to help the Blue Jackets (35-26-6) gain five of a possible six points last week.

The New York Rangers seethed at what they didnt. Steve Oleksy, Jason Chimera and Mikhail Grabovski scored second-period goals in the Capitals 4-1 win over the Rangers.TORONTO â Though they had won almost without exception over a span of three weeks, Leafs head coach Randy Carlyle wanted his team to know that their recent path to success was unsustainable. He challenged them to respond the right way and they did just that on a live Saturday night at the ACC. Toronto won for the eighth time in 10 games, capturing the season series with Detroit in a 4-1 win. âWe want to be honest with ourselves and we want to be committed to growing our team,â Carlyle said after the victory. âYou donât grow unless you can accept that you do have faults and we all do, and they were willing to work on them to make them better.â The Leafs barely touched the puck at Joe Louis Arena three nights earlier, surrendering 42 shots while managing a paltry 30 per cent possession in a game they stole on the shoulders of James Reimer in the shootout. Steering further and further from âplaying the right wayâ the club had allowed 37 shots on average in the previous six games, relying hard on terrific goaltending and a potent offence. It was a recipe they rode to failure last season and one that offered reason for concern ahead of the home showdown with the Wings â who played at home against Florida a night earlier. Veering back to structure with a cleaner brand of hockey on Saturday, the Leafs limited the Wings to just 28 shots, dominating possession for much of the evening. âWe wanted to get [them] under 25 [shots], but 28 is much better than 40-something,â said Stephane Robidas. âI donât have the numbers, but I think we spent more time in their zone than they spent in our zone so thatâs very positive.â Imperative to that success, according to Robidas and other Leaf players afterward, was a more structured neutral zone â they made a couple tweaks ahead of game-time â one that limited easy entry into the offensive zone for Detroit and forced them to either dump the puck or turn it over. The Leafs also attacked the Wings defence with more vigour and established quite a bit more offensive zone time, doing little of either just a few nights earlier. âWe knew that we had to clean it up a little bit and just play stronger,â said Morgan Rielly, who scored the third Leaf goal, his fourth of the year. Rielly was one of four Toronto goal-scorers, a year-long theme of offensive depth only continuing on this night. James van Riemsdyk, Richard Panik and Nazem Kadri also tallied goals in the victory. In question now is whether the Leafs can continue to play to such a brand on a consistent basis. Itâs there from time to time but rarely with consistency. Whatâs changed with this group from years past, however, is the willingness to at least accept that basic fact. The turning point was that momentous 9-2 home beating by Nashville in mid-November. A group that was so stubborn in its misguided ways previously finally had to accept that something different was required. âThatâs changed our group since then,â Carlyle said. The Leafs are 8-1-1 since that point, outscoring the opposition 41-22 in that span while taking full advantage of a comfy home-laden schedule. âI thought tonight was one of our best games of the year,â Jonathan Bernier said after the latest victory. Five Points 1. Impactful Night For a guy who played less than nine minutes Richard Panik sure made an impression. The 23-year-old set a new career-high with a highlight-worthy goal, dished out four hits and capped the evening with his first career NHL fight, tussling with Brendan Smith in the latter stages of victory. The benefactor of a smooth look up ice by Korbinian Holzer, Panik burst in alone on Wings goalie, Petr Mrazek in the middle period, faking him out with a nifty dangle that squirted between the pads. âItâs amazing the stuff he can do,â Robidas said, noting his observation of that skill-set daily after practice. âTo pull that off the way he did in a game itâs a nice goal.â Panik eclipsed his previous career-high with the goal, now with six markers in 26 games. Thatâs two fewer than David Clarkson, who has garnered more than 200 additional minutes, including a whole bunch on the teamâs second power-play unit. Claimed off of waivers from Tampa, Panik is averaging less than nine minutes per game. âThatâs the great thing about guys like Richard,â Carlyle said, âyou know that there is more thereâ¦heâs a dangerous player to play in the situation heâs playing.â 2. Back-to-Backs The Leafs played the first half of their sevventh back-to-back, tied for the second-most in the league with 18 this season.dddddddddddd âIf you check the record in the league of the second half of back-to-backs youâll be surprised at the success of the team thatâs played the night before,â Carlyle said Saturday morning, referring to the Wings, who were playing their second in as many nights. And while they improved to 3-3-0 in the first game of those back-to-backs, the Leafs actually do boast a far more impressive mark with shorter rest. They enter Sundayâs early game against the Kings (5 p.m. start) with a 4-1-1 mark. Carlyle prepares his team to approach the two-game sets as a six-period affair. âWeâre preparing ourselves now for period four,â he said. âItâs a long intermission.â 3. Home Ice Playing their 19th game at the ACC on Saturday the Leafs are nearly halfway through their home schedule. And theyâve managed to take advantage, now boasting a 12-7-0 overall mark with seven wins in the past eight games. The road will become familiar soon enough. Following another home date with Flyers on Dec. 20th, the Leafs will play 16 of 20 games away from Toronto. 4. Upside Bet In late July the Leafs made a bet on Jake Gardinerâs upside, signing the recently turned 24-year-old for five years at a cap hit of more than $4 million annually. That upside has showed up periodically through the first two-plus months of the season, but rarely in any kind of consistent fashion. Gardiner can dazzle one shift and befuddle on the next. Cody Franson, his most frequent defence partner in Toronto, detailed precisely what Gardiner does when heâs performing at a high level. âI think when heâs playing his best hockey heâs playing with confidence,â said Franson. âYou see him rolling off guys in our zone and holding onto the puck and then he makes that quick play and then heâs jumping up in the play right after that. He moves the puck quickly and jumps into plays; [thatâs] when heâs at his best. Sometimes he tries to do a lot. Heâs one of those guys thatâs capable of doing a lot of things; he can get up and down the ice with the best of them and he handles the puck very well. But I think when heâs at his best is when heâs moving and jumping at the same time. He does a very good job of that.â The Leafs best possession player last season, Gardiner has slipped considerably in that regard this year (at least comparatively to his teammates). Leading the team in even-strength ice last season, heâs down to third this year â behind Dion Phaneuf and Roman Polak â at just under 17 minutes per game. His offensive stats line up about even. All in all, the former first round pick has not yet taken the step many in the organization hoped he would on that fateful summer day. Gardiner played 22 minutes against Detroit. 5. Hits Franson, meanwhile, is figuring things out after nearly 350 games in the league. Torontoâs coaching staff has been pleasantly surprised by the manner in which the 27-year-old has improved defensively, pairing him with Phaneuf on the top pairing basically all year-long. Key to that improvement, Franson says, is the rawer side of the game. Physicality or lack thereof was a common complaint of the 6-5 defender throughout his career previously. âThat was one of the things that Randy wanted me to really improve upon was using my size and getting in peopleâs way and becoming tougher to play against down low â getting more hits,â Franson said. âThat knockâs followed me around my whole career. People always say I play sheltered minutes, I canât play against good players, Iâm not physical, Iâm slow â that stuffâs just kind of followed me around forever. And thatâs stuff that I just continue to try and improve upon to prove people wrong. I take a lot of pride in proving people wrong.â Franson, who threw five hits against Detroit, ranks 10th among all NHL defenders in hits. Stats-Pack 6 â Goals for Richard Panik this season, setting a new career-high. 12-7-0 â Leafs home record this season. 41-22 â Margin by which the Leafs have outscored the opposition since Nov. 18. 7-4-1 â Leafs record vs. the Atlantic division. 8:47 â Ice-time for Panik against Detroit. Special Teams Capsule PP: 1-5 Season: 20.4% PK: 1-2 Season: 83.3% Quote of the Night âYou can kind of tell heâs kind of ripped.â -Morgan Rielly, noting the strength of Richard Panik.
