hold that strawweight title for a minuteNo one i

BOSTON -- Jimmy Hayes emerged as an unlikely source of offense for the Bruins.Hayes scored the games only goal early in the first period and Tuukka Rask made 18 saves as Boston held on for a 1-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday.Hayes goal was his first in seven games and only his second in 28 games this season.You try to help the team whenever you can, and today I got an opportunity so its nice to cash in on one, Hayes said.It was a much-needed boost with leading scorer David Pastrnak sidelined after having right elbow surgery on Friday. Pastrnaks 19 goals rank second in the NHL behind Pittsburghs Sidney Crosby (21).Its going to be huge (for others to step up), Hayes said. A guy like that whos been scoring for us, scoring some big time goals for us on a regular basis. Youre going to need other guys to step up and thats going to have to be the mentality going forward.Bruins coach Claude Julien hopes Hayes performance serves as a spark after his sluggish start. Hayes ranked ninth on the team with 29 points (13 goals, 16 assists) last season.He resembled probably the older Hayes that we had at times last year than the one weve seen this year, Julien said.Rask recorded his fourth shutout of the season for the Bruins, who improved to .500 at home (8-8-0) after losing two straight games and five of six coming in.Its one of those games that you only need one bad bounce or one really good chance for them to tie it, and today we didnt even give them that, Rask said.Rask tied Minnesota goalie Devan Dubnyk for the league lead in shutouts, and now has 34 for his career.Peter Budaj had 29 saves for the Kings, who had won their previous two games. Los Angeles was outshot 30-18.Hey, we just played our fourth game today in 6 1/2 days and we played our (butts) off again today, Sutter said.Sutter opted to sit the struggling Marian Gaborik, who has just one goal and three assists through nine games.We have that right in the locker room as players and coaches to have high expectations of players in terms of how they play, Sutter said.Colin Millers wrister from the top of the right circle caught a piece of Hayes stick and zipped past Budaj 4:20 into the opening period. Hayes was initially credited with an assist on Millers goal, but the call was changed. Dominic Moore also assisted on the goal.Just being in the right spot at the right time, Hayes said about his timely score.Hayes has gone 45 games without an assist dating to Feb. 22. He is three points shy of 100 for his career.Kyle Clifford went to the locker room at 3:24 of the third after taking a hit from the Bruins Adam McQuaid while chasing a puck in the corner. He returned later in the period.NOTES. Pastrnak is expected to miss at least one more game. ... Bruins D Kevan Miller returned after missing Thursdays game with the flu. ...

It was the kind of score that might make everyone else wonder which course he was playing. Except that Graeme McDowell saw the whole thing. Crouched behind the 10th green at Sheshan International, McDowell looked over at the powerful American and said, "Ive probably seen 18 of the best drives Ive seen all year in the last two days. One thing we didnt learn last weekend: 2016 is the Year of the Underdog.That much we already knew. There has never been this kind of turnover in UFC title fight history -- considering not only the frequency of belts switching hands, but the manner in which they are doing so.Stipe Miocic: First round. Eddie Alvarez: First round. Amanda Nunes: First round. Michael Bisping: First round. And now added to the list, Tyron Woodley: First round.Anything can happen in MMA and all that jazz, but this has gotten out of control.But again, we already knew that going into UFC 201. Heres what we didnt know, and thus What We Learned, over the weekend in Atlanta.Its good to be a DiazI like to picture Nick Diaz on a boat off the coasts of Mexico last Saturday, toasting shots with brother Nate Diaz, UFC 201 welterweight championship softly playing in the background -- no one giving it any thought.The Diaz brothers have reached, at least for the time being, what actually might be the pinnacle of MMA. That is, big fights come to them. Theyre not chasing anything. Neither holds a belt, but the champions who do are calling them out.Shortly after Woodley demolished Robbie Lawler at UFC 201, he was interviewed on live television by Stephen Thompson, the next obvious No. 1 contender. A very polite, very deserving Thompson essentially asked Woodley if he was ready to dance with him next. Woodley stared coldly into the camera and shut poor Thompson down.Woodley wants a money fight against Nick Diaz or former champ Georges St-Pierre. Thompson is nowhere on his radar. And as crazy as it sounds, Diaz jumping the welterweight line doesnt sound that far-fetched.Heck, hes done it before. He fought St-Pierre for the title in 2013, despite coming off a loss. Hes officially 0-2 in hist last two fights, with one no-contest thanks to a failled drug test by Anderson Silva last year.dddddddddddd He just served an 18-month suspension for his own failed drug test (marijuana). His only win in the UFC within the last nine years is a decision against a hopelessly undersized B.J. Penn five years ago.Thompson, meanwhile, is on a seven-fight win streak. This year alone, hes knocked out Johny Hendricks in the first round and prevailed over Rory MacDonald in a five-round fight.Diaz has no business fighting for a title before Thompson, but if thats the route the UFC goes, it wont be that surprising. Nate, meanwhile, is currently the only man Conor McGregor is willing to fight -- and lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez is also on-record wanting a fight against him.Regardless of how you feel about it, theres no doubt: Diaz business is booming.Joanna Jedrzejczyk gonna hold that strawweight title for a minuteNo one is safe. We must constantly remind ourselves of this. But if there is a fine print to this rule, it most certainly reads, Oh, wait, except for Jedrzejczyk.Rose Namajunas was being touted as one final potential hiccup to Jedrzejczyks title reign. Even before her loss to Karolina Kowalkiewicz on Saturday, there was reason to believe Namajunas wasnt quite ready. Now, theres no doubt thats the case.Kowalkiewicz (10-0) is undefeated, tough and in good shape. She accused Jedrzejczyk of being scared of her at the UFC 201 post-fight press conference, a claim that seems ... unconvincing. An all-Poland title fight sounds like a good time, especially if the UFC can land it in the countrys capital of Warsaw. But even in a time when champions are falling like flies, Id set the odds of Jedrzejczyk being one of them close to zero. ' ' '
