TORONTO - While Canadas world junior team is a long ways away from show time, two players have already shown theyre worthy of that moniker. Authentic Al Montoya Jersey .Forwards Jake Virtanen and Brayden Point were anointed Show Time by teammates in the dressing-room Sunday after Canadas second exhibition game against local university all-stars. Virtanen and Point were among the players who acquitted themselves well over the weekend as selection camp drew to a close.Virtanens two goals and four assists and Points three goals and two assists helped them stand out in the crowd and made them feel pretty good about their chances of making the final 22-man roster.You look at the roster and theres some pretty big names and guys that have done really well for themselves in the past, said Virtanen, a first-round pick of the Vancouver Canucks in June. Coming into this camp its just showing yourself and playing well. I think so far as a team we played well and personally I think Ive done pretty well. I think just showing my 200-foot game and just trying to be a good player all around the ice is what Ive been trying to do.Virtanen, who plays for the WHLs Calgary Hitmen, scored one of his two goals Sunday on a perfect wrist shot just under the cross-bar. After missing Canadas summer camp while recovering from shoulder surgery, the Abbotsford, B.C., product is glad just to be healthy and playing like himself again.Coming into this I knew that I had to really show my stuff, Virtanen said. Especially in the Subway (Super) Series it was huge for me. I know I had to show the coaching staff and the whole staff that I definitely want to be on this team and Ill do anything to be on it.The other goal Virtanen scored Sunday came after Point dazzled defenders and dished the puck to him to put into an empty net.Point, a Tampa Bay Lightning prospect playing with the WHLs Moose Jaw Warriors, was in playmaking and scoring mode in the two games. Coach Benoit Groulx referred to him as relentless and said he likes a lot of things about him.Hes playing with a lot of passion and competes, Groulx said. Hes got a flair out there, a lot of anticipation. Hes been good. Hes been very good.Groulx gushed about Point more than any other player over the weekend. Thats not bad for him.If he saw something he liked, then thats good for me, Point said. You always want to do your best and impress.Neither Virtanen nor Point were considered a sure bet to make Canada when selection camp opened Thursday. But they more than survived the first round of cuts and will be at Meridian Centre in St. Catharines on Monday when main camp opens.Still, forgive Point for not wanting to get ahead of himself and think he has already made the team.Theres a lot of guys that played well, so you never know, Point said. Im just going to try to keep working hard. If I can keep going through the process, then Ill keep working hard.Robby Fabbri, a St. Louis Blues prospect playing with the OHLs Guelph Storm, stood out as well with two goals in Saturday nights exhibition. And Frederik Gauthier, the Toronto Maple Leafs first-round pick in 2013 whos with the QMJHLs Rimouski Oceanic, looked more comfortable in the offensive zone than he has in the past.Nick Ritchie, whom the Anaheim Ducks took in the first round with the pick they got from the Ottawa Senators in the Bobby Ryan trade, also made an impression because he can play on the edge. Thats a tough mix and a thin line to toe, but Groulx thought Ritchie has done a nice job of that so far.You have to watch it, Ritchie said. You cant take too many penalties. I think I did a pretty good job of that, not taking that risk, just playing hard and knowing to stay on the right side.Ritchie could be on the borderline of making the roster, too, but theres time before Hockey Canada has to make that decision.Then there are the no-doubters, the several players who didnt need to take the ice in one or both of the game at Mattamy Athletic Centre because their spots are safe.Injured centre Connor McDavid is a lock as he continues to progress from a broken bone in his right hand, and hes joined by forwards Sam Reinhart, Anthony Duclair, Max Domi and Nic Petan. Defencemen Darnell Nurse, Josh Morrissey and Madison Bowey can also feel good about making it.In goal, Canada only brought Zach Fucale and Eric Comrie to camp, and unless something unforeseen happens, Fucale figures to be the starter. Comrie had a 22-save shutout Sunday in Canadas 6-0 win over the Toronto CIS Selects team.At forward and defence, injuries could affect Canadas short-term future as forward Michael Dal Colle missed Sundays exhibition game and defenceman Joe Hicketts left as a precaution after being hit from behind into the boards. Groulx said the team did not want to take chances with either player.---Follow @SWhyno on Twitter Authentic Kris Russell Jersey . Samir Nasris 88th-minute equalizer at Etihad Stadium will be of little consolation to City, which is now six points behind league leader Liverpool and four points behind second-place Chelsea. Third-place City has a game in hand but the surprise result against Sunderland, coupled with Sundays 3-2 loss at Liverpool, may be a setback too far in its bid for a second championship in three seasons. Authentic Zack Kassian Jersey . Watching them over the past year - and in some cases, two years - has given us a starting point for this seasons Craigs List. http://www.cheapoilersjerseysauthentic.com/ . -- The Orlando Magic finally are showing the patience in critical moments that coach Jacque Vaughn has been waiting for all season.DENVER -- Ned Yost never has a bad birthday, but a win helps make the occasion much more special. Omar Infante had three doubles and drove in four runs to help the streaking Kansas City Royals beat the Colorado Rockies 7-4 on Tuesday night. It also brought a smile to Yost, who turned 60. "For 35 years Ive always thought Ive been a winner on every one of my birthdays because Im with a group of guys I really like and have fun being around," he said. "But when you win the game it makes it that much more sweeter." The Royals have been celebrating a lot lately. Since dropping two games below .500 on July 21 they have won 22 of 27 to move two games ahead of Detroit in the AL Central. They even won with ace James Shields not having his best stuff. "It was a grind day. It was one of those days where I didnt have my good stuff at all," he said. "Youre going to go through days like that and you battle through it." Shields pitched six solid innings to get the win for the Royals, who are a major league best 15-4 in interleague play. It took a while but they did get to Colorado rookie Tyler Matzek in the seventh. Matzek (2-9) came into Tuesday with a 9.60 ERA in August but was having his best outing since blanking Pittsburgh over seven innings on July 26 when he ran into trouble with two outs in the seventh. Matzek got the first two outs before allowing a pinch-hit single to Josh Willingham and walking Nori Aoki. Adam Ottavino came on and gave up consecutive doubles to Infante and Salvador Perez to give the Royals a 4-2 lead. "It was a great at-bat. Ottavino was throwing hard, good slider," Billy Butler said. "It woke me up. He had good stuff and Omar stepped up." The Royals scored three more runs in the eighth off Colorados bullpen. Infante had a two-run double with the bases loaded. It was the second time in his career he has had three doubles in a game. The last time, May 27, 2004, came against the Royals when he was playing for Detroit. "Omars swing is so simple, its not a lot of moving parts," Yost said. "He can get on a streak in a hurry." That made a winner of Shiellds (12-6), who allowed two runs on nine hits and struck out six. Authentic Andrew Ference Jersey. He wasnt sharp, allowing base runners in every inning but his last and struck out Drew Stubbs with the bases loaded to end the fourth. Stubbs and Nolan Arenado each had three hits and a home run for Colorado. Arenado went deep in the fifth to give Colorado a 2-1 lead and Stubbs hit a two-run homer in the ninth, when the Rockies mounted a rally. Greg Holland came on and threw one pitch to record his 39th save in 40 chances. "They get a lead after six innings, they pretty much wipe you out," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "Thats been the formula for them this year. Guys come in throwing in the upper 90s and throwing strikes." Justin Morneau, back in the lineup after missing two games with a stiff neck, gave Colorado a 1-0 lead with a double-play grounder in the first. Kansas City tied it in the fourth on Lorenzo Cains RBI double. BIRTHDAY BOY Yost was starting his postgame news conference when first base coach Rusty Kuntz interrupted to present the manager with a cake. Kuntz then sang "Happy Birthday" and gave Yost a hug before leaving his office. DOUBLE TROUBLE Infante wasnt the only Royals player to record a two-bagger. Kansas City had six doubles for the first time since July 29, 2011, at Cleveland. TRAINERS ROOM Royals: Perez returned to the lineup after being pulled from Mondays game with a sore knee. Rockies: OF Michael Cuddyer was scratched from the lineup with a sore left hamstring. Manager Walt Weiss said it wasnt a long-term issue, adding that playing a doubleheader Sunday led to the soreness. Cuddyer hit for the cycle in the second game of the Rockies sweep. UP NEXT Royals: Red-hot Kansas City will go for a season sweep of the Rockies with lefty Danny Duffy on the mound. Duffy (8-10) has won a career-high three straight starts. Rockies: Colorados lone bright spot on the mound, LHP Jorge De La Rosa, will face his former team Wednesday. De La Rosa (12-8) made 33 starts for the Royals in 2006-07 before joining the Rockies. He has accounted for nearly a quarter of Colorados 49 wins this season. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
