MONTREAL – The perseverance of Marty St. Shamarko Thomas Steelers Jersey . Louis continued to shine and inspire his teammates in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals as St. Louis scored 4:35 into the game and added an assist in a 7-2 Rangers win that gave New York a 1-0 series lead over the Montreal Canadiens. Ryan McDonagh tied a team record for most points by a defenseman in a playoff game with a goal and three assists but the rallying cry around St. Louis in his time of need also served as a major factor in the Rangers fourth straight win. "Its been an emotional time for everybody but the guys have been behind me and supporting me," St. Louis said after Game 1. "Their effort is unbelievable. We feel really close right now and were trying to keep feeding off that." Since his mother passed away suddenly on May 8, Rangers forward Marty St. Louis has found solace in the shelter of his team and hockey. With his team trailing 3-1 in their second round series with the Penguins, St. Louis decided to keep playing and while he didnt register any points in their 5-1 victory that night, his presence served as an inspiration that got even greater when he scored in their Game 6 win on Mothers Day. Since his mothers passing, St. Louis now has two goals and two assists and the team is feeding off his strength. "Its been a week of emotions," said goalie Henrik Lundqvist who made 20 saves in Game 1. "Playing in the playoffs is so intense; you try to perform at a high level. At the same  time  a  teammate trying to go through a rough time, so you try to be there as a support, and it makes you think a lot about a lot of things, not only hockey. So you go back and forth. Pay attention to your game and what you need to do, and obviously, other things are important in your life.  But I think as a group in dealing with it the right way, we come together and work for one another, and you could see that in the Pittsburgh series. Games 5, 6 and 7, we played really well as a team, and we were on the same page. I think tonight we started the game really well. We set the tone the way we were playing and played just a smart game." On Friday night the wake for St. Louis mom was held in nearby Laval and the 38 year-old veteran didnt return to the team hotel until almost midnight. On Sunday, the team will accompany St. Louis to the funeral. "Its been very emotional for our whole group," head coach Alain Vigneault said following the game. "Hes handled it in an incredible way that probably has helped our team come closer together. Tomorrow is going to be a tough day for our group but we need to be there to support him."

The Bucks have dropped their last two on this four-game homestand, which began with a victory over the New York Knicks. Since, Milwaukee fell to the Toronto Raptors and Utah Jazz. On Wednesday, the Bucks lost to Utah, 101-99. Brandon Knight and Jared Dudley each scored 16 points for the Bucks, who close their homestand Saturday night. Zaza Pachulia contributed 10 points and 10 boards. Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 13 points and O.J. Mayo chipped in 12 off the bench. Utah owned a 101-92 edge with 2:36 to play, but the Bucks scored the next seven points to pull within two. Pachulias layup, Antetokounmpos slam and a Dudley 3-pointer cut the gap to 101-99 with 1:29 remaining. The score was the same when Dudley missed from the top of the arc with seven seconds left. Milwaukee retained possession as the ball went out off Rudy Gobert, but Knight missed a jumper and Pachulia missed the tip-in at the buzzer. For us to fight and put ourselves in a position to tie or win the game after coming out slow, you gotta give those guys that came off the bench, they gave us a spark, Bucks coach Jason Kidd ssaid. L.C. Greenwood Jersey. It was a tale of two halves tonight. The Bucks head out on a three-game road trip, starting Sunday in San Antonio, followed by stops in Miami and Orlando. The Pistons won three of their last four, although the only setback came on the road against the piping-hot Atlanta Hawks. That stopped a seven-game road winning streak. Last time out, Detroit defeated the Orlando Magic, 128-118, at The Palace of Auburn Hills, on Wednesday. Brandon Jennings scored 24 points and handed out a career-high 21 assists to lead the Pistons. Andre Drummond led the Pistons with 26 points, and Greg Monroe was not far behind with 24 of his own. Drummond and Monroe had 17 and 10 rebounds, respectively. The Pistons led by 14 early in the fourth quarter, but the Magic pulled within two. Detroit pulled back ahead and did enough for the victory. We did a great job after they got the game back to two, said Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy. We gathered ourselves really well and played very well down the stretch. Its another learning experience. The Pistons finish this mini road trip Sunday in Toronto. The Bucks have won two of three meetings this season between the Central Division rivals. The two teams have split the last 10 meetings in Milwaukee. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
