Die Anpflanzler [DA] » ing centre on the fourth

SOCHI, Russia -- Team Canada isnt making any last-minute changes for its Olympic semifinal showdown against the United States. Save for Matt Duchene replacing the injured John Tavares, the lines and pairings are the same as they were in the quarter-final victory over Lativa and from Thursdays practice. Coach Mike Babcock was fired up not to have to make any changes. "Im pumped," Babcock said. "Were starting to look like a team and be like a team and youre organized like a team and you feel comfortable because youre not running around trying to do a million things. Its great." Duchene is back in after playing in two of Canadas first four games. Playing centre on the fourth line is part of the reason hes not worried about shaking some rust off. "Im back at my natural position, which is going to be nice," Duchene said. "And I played a lot of games on the big ice last year at centre so I know kind of what to expect in terms of that part of it as opposed to maybe playing on the wing." Duchene has represented Canada at three world championships, something that could give him an edge in recalling how things went wrong. "Helps a lot," he said. "Ive played a lot of games at Worlds last few years. Weve had some heartbreaking losses. You kind of have a little chip on your shoulder because you dont want to feel that again. Weve had some real heart-breakers there. Its time to win." Having been with this team for almost two weeks now, Babcock couldnt get a read on his team from a brief twirl at Bolshoy Ice Domes practice rink. But thats nothing new. "I cant get a feel in the morning skate in Detroit, either," he said. "Sometimes I think were the (76) Canadiens and the pucks going all over and then we dont do anything and sometimes I think our hands look like feet and we get out there and we play great. "Now we got to go out, we got a good plan, we got good people, now we got to go out and execute."

John Stones England Jersey . - Buffalo Bills running back C.TORONTO – For Randy Carlyle, it was a potential injury that could have been avoided. Joffrey Lupul was forced to depart Maple Leafs practice on Thursday afternoon after taking a shot in the foot. He was sent for x-rays and later diagnosed with a bruised foot. The 30-year-old joined teammates on the teams trip to Columbus. Frustrating Carlyle was the simple fact that Lupul was not wearing the required protective shot-blockers. "Its hard to defend the position of them not putting them on for practice," Carlyle said following practice. "So there is a little extra frustration to get possibly an injury through practice where the protective equipment thats made available to the player, they dont want to wear." Nik Kulemin, who has missed the past eight games, also did not wear the protective equipment when he broke a small bone in his right ankle earlier in the month. Carlyle said the shot-blockers, plastic shields which cover the skate, are mandatory. "Weve addressed it once and everybodys been fitted for the molds, but theres a couple players that refuse to wear it," he said. "I tried wearing them after I came back from a broken foot a couple years ago," said James van Riemsdyk.dddddddddddd "I had to wear them to play in the playoffs that year and I could never get used to them so I scrapped them." Lupul has been bitten with injuries throughout his career and more recently in the past two seasons. He missed the final 16 games of the 2011-12 season because of a separated shoulder, suiting up in only 16 games last season due to a broken right forearm and concussion. The Leafs will have the previously suspended David Clarkson in their lineup for the first time on Friday, but have been dealing with injuries to Kulemin, Mark Fraser (knee), Frazer McLaren (finger), and James van Riemsdyk, who missed two games with back spasms but returned to the lineup on Tuesday. McLaren, who has been out all season, has been cleared to return from a broken right pinky finger. Assigned to the Marlies on Wednesday, Josh Leivo has been recalled by the club as a likely precaution for Lupul and will make the trip to Columbus.
