MEN'S ICE HOCKEY  
Team USA


   `C,' there's always room for warriors like Chelios
When USA Hockey named its first set of players to the team that would compete for the Olympic gold medal on the home turf of Salt Lake City for the 2002 Games, the man proclaimed by many as the greatest U.S.-born hockey player - the man who captained the U.S. men's hockey team in Nagano, Japan, in 1998 and played for his country in another Olympics before that - didn't make the cut.

ALL-STAR GAME COMMENTARY  

   Is All-Star Game in Olympic year too much?
The All-Star Game is Saturday. Which begs the question: Why? It's always an all-hype, no-intensity skate-around. Most years, that's fine. The guys score goals, the fans have fun and everybody's happy (except the goaltenders, perhaps). But this year, the league's elite will be put on display at the Olympics, a hockey competition with as much heart and soul as the Stanley Cup playoffs. The comparison makes the All-Star Game seem silly, and the schedule makes it seem like a burden to the players, not...


GAME SUMMARIES  

NHL Kings: Team's Best Month Ever
The Los Angeles Kings interrupted one of the finest runs in franchise history to play host to the NHL's midseason showcase.

Mighty Ducks 3, Blue Jackets 1
Jeff Friesen scored on a breakaway and assisted on Matt Cullen's goal as the Anaheim Mighty Ducks extended their winning streak to five games with a 3-1 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Wednesday night.

Canucks 2, Oilers 2
Henrik Sedin scored 8:37 into the third period as the Vancouver Canucks rallied from a two-goal deficit to tie the Edmonton Oilers 2-2 Wednesday night.

Predators 5, Avalanche 2
The All-Star break came at the perfect time for the Colorado Avalanche.

Flames 4, Red Wings 3
Marc Savard scored three goals to lead Calgary to a 4-3 victory over Detroit on Wednesday night, the Flames' third victory of the season over the NHL's top team.

Blues 4, Capitals 1
The St. Louis Blues returned to form Wednesday night.

Sharks 6, Penguins 3
Once the San Jose Sharks started scoring, the Pittsburgh Penguins never did slow them down. That's why Mario Lemieux isn't a very happy owner - and even less of a happy player - entering the All-Star break.

Maple Leafs 6, Thrashers 0
Curtis Joseph made 17 saves for his fourth shutout of the season, and six players scored as the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the Atlanta Thrashers 6-0 on Wednesday night.

Coyotes 3, Panthers 1
Radoslav Suchy snapped a 30-game scoreless streak and Sean Burke made 41 saves to lead the Phoenix Coyotes to a 3-1 victory over the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night.

Islanders 6, Rangers 3
Alexei Yashin scored three goals in the first period and got involved in a second-period melee as the New York Islanders beat the New York Rangers 6-3 in a nearly out-of-control game Wednesday night.
