Buffalo Sabres 4 Winnipeg Jets 2 - The Jets return home with a split in the two game trip, a win in Columbus and the loss in Buffalo. Abou Diaby Jersey . Jets now back to .500 on the road and a game below .500 on the season. Next up, a home game Friday against Florida (TSN Jets, TSN 1290), then another back-to-back road trip, Sunday in Vancouver and Monday in Edmonton. (Both TSN Jets, TSN 1290). Jets are 0-3-1 in the second game of back-to-backs. The first period was scoreless thanks to Ondrej Pavelec. The Jets were outshot 19-7. It was the most shots the Jets have given up in one period this season and the most the Sabres have had in one period this season. Sabres have scored just seven first period goals in 34 games. The Jets struck quickly to start the second as Mark Scheifele beat Ryan Miller twice in 36 seconds. That is the fastest two road goals by the same player in franchise history. It was his first multi goal game, with all six of his goals coming on the road. His point streak is now at four (3-2-5). He now has 10 points in his last 12 games (5-5-10) and six points in his last six games (4-2-6). Scheifele is a plus 6 over the past 12 games, with eight of those games on the road. At 10:16 of the second the Sabres got on the board with Steve Ott notching his fourth. Jets outshot the Sabres 12-5 in the second. Despite being 0-20 when trailing going into the third, the Sabres kept coming at the Jets and were the better team. Fifty seconds in Marcus Foligno tied the game with his 4th, and 1:41 later Matt Moulsons power play goal gave the Sabres their first lead of the game. Matt Ellis put the game away at 13:38 with his first of the year. Sabres outshot the Jets 31-27, the first time in seven games the Jets failed to outshoot their opponent. Despite a solid effort, Pavelec is now winless in his last five decisions. Eric ODell made his NHL debut, called up from St. Johns with James Wright out with the flu. ODell played 4:39, missed the net with three shots and had one hit. The 23 year old led the IceCaps in scoring last year and is leading them again this season. Anthony Peluso sat out game two of his three game suspension, Zach Bogosian again practiced with the team but nothing firm on his status for Friday. Jim Slater, Paul Postma and Matt Halischuk remain long term. For the second straight game Evander Kane recorded six shots on goal with the line of Kane/Scheifele and Michael Frolik the Jets best line. Dustin Byfuglien led in ice time but at 23:41 it was his lowest total of the season. The Jets power play streak of scoring in four straight games also came to an end, as they failed to score on the one opportunity they had. The Jets did kill a 31 second three on five in the first and are now six for six when two men down. "I never liked the game from the start," said Coach Claude Noel. "If not for Pav the game would have been over in the first. But we got the lead in the second, only to have the momentum really shift in the third. When you defend and check the right way, you get rewarded. You cant go in spurts. They were first on pucks in the first, we managed to forecheck better in the second, we skated better. The plan for the third was to put pucks deep and put pressure on them." Noel felt Scheifele was their best player. The Jets will hold their annual skills competition Wednesday at MTS Centre, starting at 7pm. Gedion Zelalem Jersey . "I like the toughness factor in certain situations where last year and two years ago wed get bumped, get hit [and] wouldnt respond," Casey said an hour and a half before facing the league-best Thunder, a team that hadnt yet lost at home. Mikel Arteta Jersey . -- Jacksonville Jaguars rookie receiver Marqise Lee has agreed to terms on a four-year contract worth more than $5 million.DENVER -- Both the NFL opener and Peyton Manning were a little tardy. It was well worth the wait. Manning and the Denver Broncos waited eight long months, then another 33 minutes to get the season started because of a lightning storm. After three punts to start things off, Manning threw a record-tying seven touchdown passes, something no one had done in 44 years, in directing Denver to a 49-27 victory over Super Bowl champion Baltimore on Thursday night in a much-anticipated rematch against the team that ended the Broncos playoff run in January. Manning connected with his most prized addition, Wes Welker, and former college basketball player Julius Thomas and Demaryius Thomas for two TDs each in piling up the most points scored on the Ravens in their 18-year history. "I dont like excuses but I do think that lightning delay did slow us down," Manning said. "You guys have seen teams break it down: you come up for the team prayer, you put your hands in and you say, Broncos on 3, and you go out to the field. "We did it three times tonight," Manning said. "We did it, went back and sat down for 10 minutes and came back up again. Broncos on 3, now sit down for another 10 minutes. I know they had to deal with it, too, but it took us a while to get started." Wearing an orange-and-grey glove like the one he wore on that icy January night the last time these teams met, Manning took a while to get warmed up against a defence that had to replace seven Super Bowl starters. He ditched the glove when the rain stopped -- and then was unstoppable. "Peyton had an amazing night," Broncos coach John Fox said. "Peytons had a lot of amazing nights." Not like this, though. Manning is the sixth QB in NFL history to throw seven TD passes in a game and the first since Joe Kapp for Minnesota against Baltimore on Sept. 28, 1969. The others read like a Whos Who of passers who defied the 3-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust days long before the NFL became so pass-happy: Sid Luckman, Adrian Burk, George Blanda and Y.A. Tittle. Tom Brady never did it. Nor Brett Favre, Dan Marino, Joe Montana, Steve Young or Terry Bradshaw. Or, for that matter, No. 7 himself, John Elway, who had his binoculars trained on the action from his perch in the luxury seats. "I felt like we had to keep scoring because Baltimore can score at any time," said Manning, who was 27 of 42 for 462 yards with no interceptions for an off-the-charts quarterback rating of 141.1. "Hes phenomenal. To continue to come out every year and put that kind of performance on for us, its amazing," Julius Thomas said. All part of a thorough thrashing of the team that put a harsh end to what had looked like a Super Bowl-bound 2012 in Denver. The rematch came nearly eight months after Baltimore beat Denver 38-35 in double overtime on an icy January night in the same stadium. The hero on that night was Jacoby Jones, who caught a 70-yard TD pass over Rahim Moore with 31 seconds left to tie it in regulation. This time, his night was cut short when he went back to field a punt in the first half and teammate Brynden Traawick plowed into him, sending him to the sideline with a sprained right knee. Santi Cazorla Jersey. "Thats an experience problem, hes an inexperienced guy," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. When the teams finally took the field after the long delay, it was clear how much had changed. Pass rusher Elvis Dumervil moved from Denver to Baltimore as part of a bizarre, fax-infused contract squabble. Receiver Brandon Stokley also switched sides. The Broncos lost their best defender, Von Miller, to a drug suspension while Baltimore had to rebuild its "D" after losing emotional leaders Ed Reed and Ray Lewis. The Ravens suffered another loss of sorts when they were forced to play the seasons traditional opener on the road because of a conflict with the Orioles in Baltimore. The NFL hung a Flacco banner above Denvers stadium, but he hardly felt at home. Armed with a new six-year, $120.6 million contract, he matched the Broncos score for score in the first half and went into the locker room up 17-14 but had to play catch-up after falling behind 35-17 early in the third quarter. His final numbers: 34 of 62 for 362 yards with two TDs and two interceptions. "It was a pretty good game for a while and it got away from us," Flacco said. It was such a runaway, the Broncos were throwing away touchdowns by the end. Linebacker Danny Trevathan fumbled his pick-6 just shy of the goal line, pulling a Leon Lett imitation by celebrating too soon and the ball bounced out of the end zone for a touchback instead of a touchdown. No worries. Denver was ahead 42-17 at that point. "It was just a young mistake," Trevathan said. "It was kind of selfish. Im going to take full responsibility. Im going to grow from it." Mannings seventh TD pass was a blitz-beater that Demaryius Thomas caught in the left flat and raced up the seam for a 78-yard score that capped Mannings big night. "It didnt seem like that many," Welker said. "Youre just sitting there like, That was seven? Because hes so nonchalant about it." Flacco could only marvel at Mannings seven TDs. "Thats a sweet way to start a season," Flacco said. "You get ahead throwing that many touchdowns. I mean, shoot, hes almost halfway to 20 already." Demaryius Thomas finished with five receptions for 161 yards, Julius Thomas had five catches for 110 yards and Welker led the way with nine grabs for 67 yards. Welker is the first receiver to catch TD passes from both Brady and Manning. He has said he cant compare the two pre-eminent QBs, saying thats like choosing between Michaelangelo and Picasso. This night was certainly a masterpiece for Manning. Notes: Broncos injuries: KR Trindon Holliday (lower left leg), Eric Decker (right shoulder) and S Omar Bolden (left shoulder). ...
