OTTAWA — Milan Michalek hasnt scored much for the Ottawa Senators this season, but his first game-winning goal of the year couldnt have come at a better time. Vapormax Flyknit Moc Pas Cher . Michalek scored his second goal of the game and 10th of the season with 23 second left as Ottawa defeated the Buffalo Sabres 3-2 on Thursday. „We believe theres still lots of goals left in Milan, but its taken a long time to get them out this year,“ Senators coach Paul MacLean said. „With his work ethic and his play without the puck and his abilities on the penalty kill, theres never been a question about his contributions to the team. „We knew if he would just stay with it good things would happen for him.“ The Sabres had fought back to tie the game with two third-period goals, but Senators captain Jason Spezza found Michalek, who beat Jhonas Enroth over the shoulder for the winner. „Its all about winning and were not doing that right now,“ said Sabres defenceman Henrik Tallinder, who said the puck hit the referee and went right to Spezza on the winning goal. „Nothing you can do about it. We didnt go the right way that maybe we should have, but it hit the ref and bounces are going to happen but they just werent in our favour.“ Erik Karlsson also scored for the Senators (26-21-11) while Craig Anderson made 30 saves. Tyler Ennis and Drew Stafford scored for the Sabres (15-34-8), who lost for the fourth straight time. Enroth made 33 saves. Following two periods that saw the Senators build a 1-0 lead, things opened up in the third period with four goals off several good scoring opportunities. It started with Michalek doubling the Senators lead to 2-0 just 10 seconds into the period on a perfect pass from Spezza which allowed Michalek to redirect the puck in. The goal was the fastest in team history from the start of a period breaking the old record of 12 seconds set by Spezza back in 2009. „At least Im still involved in (the record) I guess. I would have shot it if I knew that,“ Spezza joked after the game, quickly getting serious when the Sabres comeback was brought up. „A two goal lead is a tricky lead. We give up the one goal to make it 2-1 and then really anything can happen with a bounce here or a bounce there. Hopefully we learn from it.“ Ottawa got into penalty trouble but was fortunate when Ennis hit the post on one power-play opportunity. The Sabres also had a five-on three advantage for 17 seconds but were unable to get a shot on goal during that brief stretch. Ennis broke Andersons shutout bid at 10:25 of the third when the puck came to him in front off a failed wrap-around attempt by Stafford. The puck rolled off Staffords stick right to Ennis who had an empty net to shoot at. Stafford then tied the game at 15:46 when he grabbed a rebound and went around Anderson who was down and out on the play. „There were no excuses not to battle as hard as we could going into that third period and we did a really good job,“ Ennis said. „Its super disappointing to lose that one.“ Only seven goals, including one in a shootout, have been scored in the previous three matchups between the Sabres and Senators. Karlsson put the Senators on the board first with his shot from along the boards eluded Enroth just 3:12 into the second period. Neither team had many quality scoring chances despite seven power plays between them through the first two periods. But one scoring chance the Sabres did have though came late in the second when Stafford drove the Senators net from just above the goal line but he was unable to tip the puck through Anderson. The Senators stymied the Sabres on all seven of their power-play opportunities. „Weve been winning faceoffs and doing a much better job up the ice and on the initial entry into our zone weve contested it and been hard to play against,“ MacLean said. The Senators were 0-3 with the man advantage. NOTES: Forwards Linus Omark and Marcus Foligno along with defenceman Tyler Myers were scratches for the Sabres Thursday.

NASCAR announced its decision Thursday against Parrott, who works for Richard Petty Motorsports. The substance was not identified. „We have an expectation of all RPM employees to conduct themselves at the highest level of professionalism and within the competitive confines as set forth by NASCAR,“ said Sammy Johns, RPMs vice-president of operations and competition. „We are very disappointed that one of our employees did not meet our expectations and we completely support NASCAR, their policies and final decisions when it comes to the substance abuse policy.“ Johns will handle crew chief duties for the No. 43 Ford this weekend at Talladega and until further notice. Parrott was the longtime crew chief for Halll of Fame driver Dale Jarrett when Jarrett was at Robert Yates Racing. Vapormax 2019 Pas Cher. . He guided him to two Daytona 500 victories, in 1996 and 2000, and wins at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 1996 and 1999. The duo also paired to win the 1999 Cup championship. Parrott also developed many of NASCARs future crew chiefs, including Mike Ford, Jimmy Elledge and younger brother, Brad. The No. 43 car at RPM has never participated in any NASCAR programs affiliated with alcohol, dating back to seven-time champion Richard Pettys days as a driver. Pettys mother made the request, since she was against alcohol and banned substances. As a result, the car doesnt participate in beer-sponsored contingency programs and didnt run in the exhibition opening race of Daytona Speedweeks when it was sponsored by Budweiser. The No. 43 also does not participate in the Coors Lite pole award program in NASCAR. ‚ ‚ ‚
