Matt Niskanen has decided to hit the open market on July
1. Niskanens agent, Neil Sheehy, tweeted on Thursday that
the defenceman had spoken to the Pittsburgh Penguins and
informed the team he would test the free agent market.
The 27-year-old scored 10 goals and added 36 assists for
a career-high 46 points with the Pittsburgh Penguins last
season. He added two goals and seven assists in 13
playoff games. This past season marked the final year on
a two-year pact he signed with the Penguins prior to the
2012-13 season worth an average annual value of $2.3
million. Originally drafted by the Dallas Stars in the
first round (28th overall) of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft,
the Penguins acquired Niskanen in the same trade that
brought James Neal to Pittsburgh. In 491 career games
with the Penguins and Stars, Niskanen has scored 35 goals
and 132 assists with a plus-39 rating.
Jersey/">Ed Davis Jersey . It was a day that saw
England slump off a World Cup field once again battered
and bruised. This time there was no red card to wonder
about, no goalkeeping error or individual mistake. They
were thoroughly beaten by something they have nothing of
– genuine world class ability.
Blazers-Jersey/">Terry Porter Jersey . A judge had
summoned Clemens and Brian McNamee to federal court in
Brooklyn for settlement talks aimed at heading off a
trial in the defamation case. McNamees lawyer emerged
saying an agreement wasnt likely. "I think this is a case
where the lines are deeply drawn in the sand," said
attorney Richard Emery.

Blazers-Jersey/">Brandon Roy Jersey .com) - Longtime
Senators star Daniel Alfredsson returned to Ottawa on
Thursday to officially announce his retirement.BEREA,
Ohio - Brian Hoyer came dangerously close to losing his
dream job for good.But after getting them into playoff
contention, the Browns decided that despite his
imperfections and recent mistakes, Hoyer is still their
starting quarterback over rookie Johnny Manziel, who may
be their future but isnt ready to handle the present.The
Browns are Hoyers team for at least one more Sunday.I
want to see this thing through, Hoyer said. I want to
finish this strong.Clevelands struggling veteran will
start again this week against Indianapolis after first-
year coach Mike Pettine and his staff decided Hoyer would
be the better option down the stretch than Manziel, who
flashed some Johnny Football magic last week in a loss at
Buffalo.Hoyers poor performance against the Bills — he
was pulled for Manziel with 12 minutes left in a 26-10
loss — raised the possibility that Cleveland (7-5) would
make another switch at the position. The Browns have had
20 starting quarterbacks since 1999.Hoyer spent an
anxious 48 hours waiting to learn his fate.They werent
the easiest days of my life, thats for sure, he said. Ive
been through a lot, and this is one more thing to handle
some adversity and it makes you stronger. Its back to
business as usual.Pettine described the decision as
difficult because of Hoyers performance, but said coaches
put more value on his experience and success.It wasnt
perfect and hes made his share of mistakes, but hes
gotten the lions share of reps in practice and virtually
all of them in games and has us in the thick of a playoff
hunt, Pettine said. That, to me, was probably the biggest
determining factor.Pettine said he told both quarterbacks
his decision on Wednesday.Manziel, who led the Browns on
an 80-yard touchdown drive he capped with a 10-yard run
last week, was understandably disappointed. But the
first-round draft pick was encouraged by his time on the
field and knows his chance may not be far off.Obviously,
thats a decision thats made by Coach Pettine, he said.
And this week his answer was, No so moving forward
whatever transpires, maybe next time the answer will be,
Yes.Pettine said there was some lively discussion before
the coaching staff agreed to stay with Hoyyer, who has
thrown just one touchdowns pass and six interceptions in
his last three games.ddddddddddddHoyer will not be on a
short leash and Pettine is confident the five-year
veteran and the rest of Clevelands offence can bounce
back after a rough stretch.Before finalizing his
decision, Pettine spoke with several players, who offered
their support of Hoyer.Hes a resilient competitor, Pro
Bowl tackle Joe Thomas said, and that says everything you
need to know about him because hes not the type of guy
that will feel sorry for himself. Hes not going to lay
down. Hes going to prepare even harder.Manziel said he
felt good about the way he played and figured he had done
enough to make the decision tough on Clevelands
coaches.Just being competitive, theres a little bit of
disappointment, said Manziel. But at the same time I
completely trust Coach Pettine with this team and I
believe hes put us in the right situation going forward
consistently.Comebacks arent new for Hoyer.A lifelong
Browns fan, the Cleveland-area native had his boyhood
wishes come true last season when he was given the
starting job. He made three starts before tearing a knee
ligament against the Bills.Hoyer rehabbed tirelessly to
get back and while he expected the Browns to draft a
quarterback, he never imagined it would be Manziel, the
immensely popular former Texas A&M quarterback and
college football legend.Hoyer beat out Manziel in
training camp and has held him off again.I always have a
fire lit, Hoyer said. Anytime someone questions you, you
want to prove them wrong. Im sure there are people
questioning me all along, not just this week, throughout
the entire season.NOTES: Pettines not concerned about the
reaction of Browns fans. The city seemed split between
Hoyer and Manziel. The Dawg Pound is happiest when were
winning, he said. Therefore, its what this business is
all about. I think opinions will be very divided on this
regardless of what had happened. ... Starting RB Isaiah
Crowell was held out of practice with a hip injury. He
leads the team with seven touchdowns. ... TE Gary
Barnidge has a rib injury and remains day-to-day.___AP
