The Arizona Cardinals have added depth at defensive end by signing free agent Benson Mayowa to a one-year contract.
The five-year NFL veteran spent the past two seasons with the Dallas Cowboys Christian Jones Jersey , appearing in 28 games, eight as a starter. With the Cowboys, he had seven sacks, 38 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. He had a career-high six sacks in 2016.
Mayowa made the Seattle roster as an undrafted free agent out of Idaho in 2013. He played two games for the Seahawks as a rookie and 28 games for Oakland over the following two seasons. He has nine sacks in 58 games.
Arizona already is strong at the starting defensive end position, with All-Pro Chandler Jones (the NFL sack leader with 17) and Marcus Golden Sean Lee Jersey , who is coming off knee surgery.
TAMPA, Fla. — Since losing the series opener at home, the Tampa Bay Lightning have won three straight to put the Boston Bruins on the verge of elimination.
And yet the only thing the hockey world can talk about is Boston’s Brad Marchand licking Tampa Bay’s Ryan Callahan — on the face, during Game 4, like an ice cream cone — and what should happen.
Callahan asked after the game what the difference is between licking someone’s face and spitting on them, pointing out that the penalty for the latter is a game misconduct.
Lightning coach Jon Cooper said there’s no place for such an act in hockey.
The league came out Saturday only to say it would be reaching out to Marchand that any further licking-related problems were “unacceptable and similar behavior in the future will be dealt with by way of supplemental discipline.”
Call that a tongue-lashing, if you will.
The good news for the Lightning? They return home for Game 5 on Sunday afternoon at Amalie Arena with history on their side Levine Toilolo Jersey , No Lightning team has ever blown a 3-1 lead in the playoffs, and the Bruins are 0-23 in series they trailed 3-1.
The series has gone back and forth, just like Friday’s game, which saw the Lightning jump ahead 2-0, only to have Boston rally back for a 3-2 lead.
Steven Stamkos, held in check for much of the playoffs, came through with a huge goal to tie the score late in the third period Jamon Brown Jersey , and Dan Girardi redirected an Alex Killorn shot in front of the net for the game-winner in overtime.
The LickGate fuss has obscured some key points to the Lightning turnaround. Boston hasn’t scored an even-strength goal in the last two games, and the Lightning have continued to score despite the Bruins effectively containing Nikita Kucherov and Stamkos for much of the series.
And for all of Tampa Bay’s momentum, there’s a keen realization that nothing is of consequence without anondher win.
“I’ll be the first one to tell you that we’ve accomplished nothing,” Cooper told reporters. “We’re really happy where we stand. But you got to win four (games), not three. And we’re really focused to get that fourth one.”
Boston must try to stay alive without arguably their best defenseman in Torey Krug, who injured his ankle in a Game 4 and will miss the rest of the series. Nick Holden will step into his role Sunday.
“He did a good job for us when he went in,” Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy told NHL.com about Holden. “We’re going to miss Torey John Ross Jersey , obviously. He’s a good player for us and really adds to our offensive side of things, but Nick’s done a good job so in he’ll go.”
The Lightning’s quick dismissal of New Jersey in the opening round gave them a full week of rest before this series. Dispatch the Bruins on Sunday , they can rest again, with all the other series going at least six games.
