TAMPA, Fla. -- The new-look New Jersey Devils are determined to make sure a two-game swing through Florida produces more than a case of sunburn.The Devils debuted a new lineup that includes the likes of Taylor Hall, P.A. Parenteau and a healthy Mike Cammalleri with mixed results in an opening night overtime loss to the Florida Panthers.We have to be way harder on the puck in every facet, New Jersey head coach John Hynes told the Bergen County Record. How we manage it, how hard we are in the offensive zone. How quickly and hard we defend down low.After facing the Panthers on opening night, the task does not get any easier for the Devils in the second game against a Tampa Bay Lightning team that has reached the Stanley Cup Final and Eastern Conference finals the past two seasons.Its not going to be perfect right away, Hynes told The Record. But weve got to take some lessons out of that. We can play with structure. We can play with detail.To take that to the next step as a team, we have to be harder and more competitive for more of the time in the game continually on the puck. Thats the biggest lesson out of that (first) game, and we get another opportunity to challenge ourselves again. Weve got a team thats favored, possibly, to win the Stanley Cup. Weve got to be a better team than we were against Florida.Tampa Bay opened the season with a 6-4 victory against Detroit, using depth and team speed to create the necessary momentum to rally from deficits of 2-0 and 3-1 while finding space through the neutral zone.Lightning head coach Jon Cooper figures space will be a little bit harder to find against an historically stingy defensive team with an elite goaltender, but now has more scoring threats.They are built from the back end out, Cooper said. I think Corey Schneider is an upper-echelon goaltender in this league. They have a coach that plays to that system and they are really disciplined in their structure.The one knock has been the goal scoring, but you throw in a healthy Cammalleri and a Taylor Hall, now their speed element is up, their goal-scoring should go up. I expect them to score a lot more. Lets just hope its not (Saturday).Lightning alternate captain Ryan Callahan, who underwent hip surgery during the summer that forced him to miss the World cup of Hockey, has been cleared for contact and participated in a full practice with the team on Friday wearing a normal colored white jersey. But the time frame on his recovery has not been altered, according to Cooper.His jersey color may change but the when-hes-returning-date wont change, that one is way more important to me, Cooper said. But hes chomping to get back. His body is holding him back for the time being.Callahan is not expected back until November. Jay Novacek Youth Jersey . Arsenal failed to take full advantage of its main rivals stumbles on Saturday as substitute Gerard Deulofeu levelled with a hard shot from a tight angle in the 84th minute to give Everton a deserved point. Ahead of a crucial fortnight that will see them play against Napoli in the Champions League, Manchester City and Chelsea, Arsenal leads by five points ahead of Liverpool and Chelsea. Bill Bates Cowboys Jersey . Anthony Calvillo, through 20 CFL seasons, was frequently invincible and largely stoic in the heat of competition. But underneath the professional exterior he was, and is, compellingly human. http://www.shoptheofficialcowboys.com/Elite-Demarcus-Ware-Cowboys-Jersey/ . According to a report from the Winnipeg Free Press, the Bombers will name Acting GM Kyle Walters to the post full time. Bill Bates Youth Jersey . Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself. Troy Aikman Youth Jersey . -- Quarterback Will Finch threw for 252 yards and three touchdowns, and Yannick Harou rushed in two scores as the No. A batsmans peak years are supposed to be between the ages of 28 and 35, but obviously Misbah-ul-Haq hasnt been told about it. In May this year he turned 42, and in the Lords Test he proved that it was just a meaningless number, as he went on to become the oldest captain to ever score a Test hundred, and the oldest batsman in the last 82 years to score one. All that in his first ever Test match in England. At the grand age of 42, Misbah is in the midst of an incredible batting run.It is remarkable that 84% of Misbahs Test runs have been scored after he turned 35 (3753 out of 4466). Only Graham Gooch and Sachin Tendulkar have scored more runs than him after turning 35, though Misbah has a marginally better average than both of them.Till 2009, though, it was scarcely believable that Misbah could go on to have such a long and prolific Test career. At the end of that year, he had played just 18 Tests after making his debut in 2001. Eight of those Tests were in 2009 itself, but he averaged just 27.16 from 13 innings in those Tests, with no score of over 70.All of that changed from the series against South Africa in the UAE, when Misbah scored three fifties from four innings. In 17 series since then (excluding one-off Tests), he has averaged 50 or more in 11, and the average since the start of 2010 has soared to 55.06. Its a reflection of the overall dominance of batting that six batsmen average more than him during this period (with a 3000-run cut-off). Unlike many batsmen who move up the batting order as they gain experience, Misbah has stayed at No. 5 and made a success of it as well. Of his 4466 runs, 3992 have come at that position, which is 89% of his aggregate. Only four batsmen have scored more Test runs from that slot, while Misbahs average of 53.94 at the position compares favourably with most of the batsmen on the list below. Drilling down a bit deeper into those stats at No. 5, here is a look at how the top batsmen perform depending on when they come in to bat. Given Pakistans relatively brittle top order, Misbah had found himself coming in to bat early quite often: 25 times in 89 innings he has come in when Pakistan have been three down with 50 or fewer runs on the board. While he has had a few meaty contributions in these situations, his overall average in these 25 innings is underwhelming - 34.83, with eight fifties, but no hundreds. His highest in these situations is 97, against Sri Lanka in Dubai in 2014, when he came in at 19 for 3. A couple of months earlier against South Africa at the same venue, he made 88 when Pakistan were 48 for 3, his second-highest score in these situations.He has done much better, though, when Pakistans top three wickets havee done slightly better: in innings when Pakistan have been between 51 and 100 for 3, Misbah has averaged an impressive 59.dddddddddddd05, with four hundreds and eight fifties in 27 innings. His Lords century, which came from a team position of 77 for 3, is the lowest entry point from which he has gone on to score a hundred in his Test career so far. His previous lowest entry score had been 83 for 3, when he scored 135 against Sri Lanka in Abu Dhabi in 2013-14.His best numbers, though, have come when the top four have scored more than 150. Six of his ten hundreds have come in these situations, in which he averages nearly 70. The three tables below compare those numbers with those of Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Steve Waugh and Michael Clarke, the top three run-getters at that position. All three have done better when coming in to bat early, with Clarke having outstanding numbers when coming in before 50: his unbeaten knocks of 329 against India and 259 against South Africa both came from early entries. Waugh averages nearly 60 too from early entries.What also stands out about these stats is the number of times Misbah has come in to bat at 100 or earlier, compared to the two Australians: for Misbah it has happened 52 times in 89 innings (58%), compared to 43% for Waugh and 44% for Clarke. Those numbers arent necessarily flattering towards Misbah, but what is undeniable is the improvement he has shown throughout his career. Nowhere is that more visible than in his stats against pace. He still shows some discomfort against fast bowling, especially the short stuff, but his average against pace has doubled, from 26.52 to 52.40, though the strike rates indicate he still prefers to bat against spin.* Excludes the first two innings of his Test career, against New Zealand in March 2001 It took Misbah more than 15 years in international cricket to play his first Test in England, but looking at the way he batted and enjoyed the occasion, it seems unlikely he would want to give it up any time soon. The team is performing superbly under his leadership, and his decision to retire from the limited-overs formats should help him retain his hunger and appetite for the game. Already he has scored 1248 Test runs after turning 40, which is third highest of all time, after Jack Hobbs 2440 and Patsy Hendrens 1901. Most of the others who are on the top of this list played their cricket before 1970. Misbah has been an exception to many rules over his international career, and given his recent form and hunger, he could go on and break a few more before he is done. ' ' '
