The first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs is going out with a bang as for the fifth time in NHL history, three Games 7 will be played on the same day when the New York Rangers host the Philadelphia Flyers, the Colorado Avalanche host the Minnesota Wild (Both games as part of a doubleheader on TSN2 and TSN GO beginning tonight at 7pm et/4pm pt) and the San Jose Sharks take on the Los Angeles Kings. Wayne Simmonds turned in his first career playoff hat trick, Steve Mason was spectacular, and the Flyers lived to fight tonight with a 5-2 throttling of New York that forced a Game 7 on Tuesday night. With their backs squarely to the wall, the Flyers responded with by far their best performance of the series, roaring out to a 4-0 lead through two periods and sending New Yorks star goaltender Henrik Lundqvist to the bench after 40 minutes. Simmonds and Mason, who recorded 34 saves, set the tone for a season-saving result which gives Philadelphia a surge of momentum heading into Wednesdays winner-take-all showdown at Madison Square Garden, where the Flyers have prevailed just once in their last 11 visits. Claude Giroux added a goal and an assist for his first multi-point effort of these playoffs, while reserve defenseman Erik Gustafsson also lit the lamp in his series debut. Lundqvist stopped only 19 of 23 shots before being yanked, and the Rangers failed to match their rivals sense of urgency en route to a 12th straight loss in a playoff game they entered with a series lead. The Rangers are 5-0 at home in Games 7, the best record of any team that has played at least three home games. However, the Flyers are 9-6 all-time in Game 7s, the best record of any team that has played at least 10 games overall. This is also the second time the Flyers and Rangers have played a Game 7 against each other. In the 1974 semifinals, the Flyers beat the Rangers, 4-3. In Denver, the Wild and Avalanche will meet in a seventh and deciding game for the first time since 2003, when the Wild defeated the Avalanche - with then-starting netminder Patrick Roy in goal - in Game 7 of their Western Conference quarterfinal series. In Game 6 on Monday, Zach Parises second goal of the game broke a tie with 6:29 remaining in the third period and the Wild beat the Avalanche 5-2 to even their first-round Western Conference playoff series. Parise had four points and the Wild survived a minute and 48 seconds against an extra skater after Roy pulled goaltender Semyon Varlamov early again - a strategy that has worked twice in the series. With a victory, the Wild will not only advance to Round 2, but will become the only active NHL, NBA or MLB team to go 3-0 all-time in Games 7. In San Jose, the Sharks are in danger of becoming the fourth team in NHL history to blow a 3-0 series lead en route to losing a playoff round when they take on the Kings. Only three teams have ever came back to win a series after dropping the first three games. The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs, 1975 New York Islanders and 2010 Philadelphia Flyers are the only clubs to have pulled off the monumental comeback. Alex Stalock, who was in goal for the struggling Antti Niemi on Monday, stopped 26 shots in his first NHL playoff start - a 4-1 loss in Game 6. Niemi will get the call in goal for San Jose in Game 7. "In my mind, if it gets to Game 7, it doesnt matter how it gets there," Sharks forward Logan Couture said on Monday. "It gets there, and youre going for one game. We played all year for the home ice. Im sure our building is going to be loud. Weve got to turn this thing around and win that game." Julius Thomas Jersey . The Trail Blazers lead the first-round series 3-2 entering Game 6 on Friday in Portland. A basket by Damian Lillard got the Trail Blazers within two points before James Harden stepped back and swished a 3-pointer to make it 103-98 with about three minutes left. T.J. Ward Womens Jersey . The Spurs announced on Monday that they have re-signed Matt Bonner. http://www.thebroncosstoreonline.com/Youth-Peyton-...s-Jerse ys/ .

NEW YORK -- Carmelo Anthony spent all night watching his shot spin out, except for the times it was Amare Stoudemires turn to miss. But Anthony knew when it was close at the end, somebody would make a play. And he was one, making the tiebreaking basket with 2:39 left and scoring 22 points as the New York Knicks avenged an embarrassing loss to the Charlotte Bobcats with a 91-87 victory Monday night. "It was just a will to win out there tonight," Anthony said. "Shots was going in and out, we wasnt making shots, myself, Amare," Anthony said. "We shot 30-something per cent from the field, so we had to grind it out on the defensive end and then crunch time we had to make something do." Stoudemire shot 7 of 25 but had 25 points and 12 rebounds, while Tyson Chandler finished with 20 points and 13 boards. Anthony, perhaps still bothered by a sore lower back, was only 6 of 18 from the field, but scored eight of the Knicks final nine points. Iman Shumpert scored 16 points for the Knicks, who won their third straight since a 118-110 home loss to the Bobcats last Wednesday. New York still figures it will score like it did that night and defend like it did in this one. "Theres going to be definitely nights where weve got to lean on our defence, but I think once we start clicking well be in the upper 100s and these games will be blowouts," Chandler said. Boris Diaw had 19 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists for the Bobcats, who dropped their third in a row since that victory at Madison Square Garden. He scored a season-high 27 points in that game. "They did play better than they played against us last week," Diaw said. "It was more of a defensive game tonight. They adapted from what we did in the first game." The Knicks defended much better in the rematch but almost wasted it as they struggled to finish around the basket all night. They made just two field goals in the opening nine minutes of the fourth quarter, and D.J. Augustins three-pointer tied it at 82 with 2:57 remaining. Anthony drove for the go-ahead basket with 2:39 to go, then was credited with another field goal on a goaltending call about a minute later. A jumper by Gerald Henderson was followed by a free throw by Anthony and one by Landry Fields to make it 88-84 with 13 seconds remaining. Augustins three-pointter from the corner cut it to one with 10 seconds to go, but he missed a chance to tie it again with 3.dddddddddddd7 to go after Anthony made two free throws with 8.6 seconds to go. "The last play of the game we got a wide-open three from our best three-point shooter. So I cant fault us at all for the effort," coach Paul Silas said. Henderson scored 14 points and Augustin had 12 points and eight assists for the Bobcats, who opened a stretch of five games in six nights. The Bobcats points and 55 per cent shooting were the highest allowed this season by the Knicks, who insisted they were committed to playing better defence after acquiring Chandler. But a crowd that was buzzing that night with the returns of Stoudemire and Shumpert from injuries was booing the Knicks by the second half. "We did play an excellent game, but theyre going to come at us with a vengeance tonight, no question in my mind," Silas said before the game, "because I dont know if they took us for granted or not a little bit, but I know tonight theyre going to really go all out to show us that we dont belong with them." But the Bobcats came out looking capable of a repeat, breaking out to a 10-0 start. The Knicks regrouped to take a 24-21 lead after one quarter, extended it to a nine-point advantage midway through the second, and were up 50-45 at halftime. The Knicks finally put a charge into the crowd midway through the third. Shumpert threw down a dunk after a steal, but then Chandler bolted into the lane to catch and throw down a lob pass from Anthony. Chandler then made a pair of free throws for the Knicks first double-digit lead of the game at 69-59 with 4:33 remaining. "They played a lot better in this game," Silas said. "They played tougher defence. They really played us hard and tough, and last game they didnt really play us that tough." Notes: Knicks guard Mike Bibby missed his lone three-point attempt after making his previous seven. The team record for consecutive made three-pointers is 10, shared by Trent Tucker and Allan Houston. ... The Bobcats started DeSagana Diop at centre for the second straight game but went back to former starter D.J. White to start the second half. .. Knicks coach Mike DAntoni said Jared Jeffries (sore right calf) could return at the end of this week or early next. ' ' '
