GLASGOW -- Sultana Frizell didnt get a chance to march in the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games. LaAdrian Waddle Patriots Jersey . But shell be front and centre when the event wraps up tonight. The hammer thrower was named Canadas flagbearer for the closing ceremony after defending her gold medal from four years ago in impressive fashion. Frizell -- who set a new Commonwealth record in the event on three separate occasions in Glasgow -- did not participate in opening ceremony on July 23 because she was still training at a camp in Portugal. The 29-year-old from Perth, Ont., said she was both surprised and honoured to be asked to carry the Maple Leaf into Hampden Park. "Last night everyone took me into a back room and they were like Sultana, weve got something to tell you. And I was like Is somebody dead?" the bubbly Frizell joked. "It was never really in my head. I see the people carrying the flag and Im like Hey thats really cool and it would be really nice to do it someday. "Its definitely a nice cherry on top." Frizell, who trains in Kamloops, B.C., said carrying the flag will also be special for her parents. "Its going to be really nice for my family back home to see because theyre not able to travel anymore," she said. "My mom and my dad are quite ill. This will be nice for them to see me on TV. Its going to be great." Frizell was just one of a number of Canadas 265 athletes in the running for flagbearer on a team that was cemented in third place in the overall medal standings behind England and Australia heading into the final day of competition. "Not only was it an impressive performance, Sultana also displayed exceptional character on and off the field," said Canadian chef de mission Chantal Petitclerc in a release. "Her great attitude and leadership certainly contributed to the success of the entire athletics team here in Glasgow." Frizell threw 71.69 metres to claim gold in the hammer throw, but was disappointed she didnt come closer to the Canadian record of 75.73 she threw earlier this season. She currently sits fourth in the world and will now turn her attention to next summers Pan American Games on home soil in Toronto, and then the 2016 Olympics in Rio. "Im close, and anything can really happen on the day," said Frizell. "Were just trying to figure out how to get to that next level because (the throws) need to be at 77 metres. I need to be there. Thats whats winning medals. Were trying to figure out how to prep in training to close that gap, so Im very close." Keshawn Martin Patriots Jersey . In the other Group A game, the Czech Republic stunned Canada, 5-4 in a shootout. Dominik Simon scored the deciding goal in the tiebreaker. The United States scored its first three goals on power plays. "Overall, I love to see the power-play goals we were able to get tonight," said U. Jonathan Cooper Patriots Jersey . With a win tonight, Buehrle will match Yankees ace Masahiro Tanaka for the most wins in the majors with 11. Buehrle is 10-4 with a 2.32 earned run average, but has lost his last three starts, including a 7-3 setback at Yankee Stadium last Wednesday. http://www.patriotsjerseysauthentic.com/Jerod-Mayo-Super-Bowl-Jersey/ . The Cavs announced the move Saturday, one day after LeBron James said hes returning to Cleveland. A 12-year veteran, Haywood has played in 794 NBA games, averaging 6.MONTREAL -- The Boston Bruins just couldnt bury their chances. On a night when Boston was looking close out the series, the Bruins made a hash of numerous opportunities in a 4-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens in Game 6 on Monday night. The Bruins hit posts and crossbars, missed open nets, blew odd-man rushes and couldnt capitalize on key chances throughout the game. Most noteworthy was a frenetic 5:11 sequence of uninterrupted play in the second period during which the Bruins penned Montreal in its own zone for more than two minutes. With the Bruins down 1-0 early in the second period, and their power play expiring, Boston took advantage of tired Habs legs to play keepaway with Montreal in the offensive zone. The Bruins peppered the net with shots, but couldnt take advantage of the unrelenting pressure. "We were all around the net, getting a lot of chances. And then they scored that second one," said Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron. "It definitely took the momentum out of us. Its about finishing the job, and we have to be a lot better." On the sequence, Carl Soderberg took two shots on Carey Price, and had another two blocked by Canadiens defenceman Mike Weaver. Brad Marchand missed the net, Jarome Iginla was stopped by Price and Kevan Miller had a chance blocked by P.K. Subban. The Bruins took a total four shots on net, had three shots blocked and missed the net once. "If we capitalize on a chance there, its a different game," said Milan Lucic, who was also denied by Price on the sequence. "Were not frustrated with what happened here today because we established some pretty good zone time." Price made 26 saves for his fourth career post-season shutout. One of his best of the evening was on Lucic during Bostons dominant spell. Lucic was fed the puck across the crease, but Price made it back in time to rob the left-winger. "Bouncing puck, I overshot it," said Lucic. "It was one of those plays thaat you put in nine out of 10 times. Jordan Devey Patriots Jersey. . Today was that one that you didnt get. You get the same opportunity next game, you have to make sure that you bury it." Minutes later, Max Pacioretty scored his second of the playoffs on a breakaway to double the Canadiens lead. Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask left his net to intercept a stretch pass by Nathan Beaulieu on the play, but changed his mind and retreated back between the posts. The moment of uncertainty was enough for Pacioretty to fire home a shot between Rasks pads. "I kind of hesitated," said Rask, who let in four goals on 28 shots. "I didnt want to get burned. Me and Zdeno (Chara) got caught looking at each other. I thought he was going to dive, and he thought I was going to play it. Just another gift." Thomas Vanek, whos particularly successful against the Bruins with 67 points in 61 career games, added a goal at the end of the second period and another at the end of the third. The Bruins have now failed to clinch a playoff series in Game 6 on the road for the fourth time in five seasons. Game 7 goes Wednesday night in Boston. "Its one game, winner moves on," said Lucic. "You know its not going to be easy. You fought all season-long to get the home ice advantage for situations like this. "Were confident. Weve been a confident group all year long. Weve played well in big games. This is the biggest one so far throughout the year. We have to bring our best when we need it the most. Thats the most important thing." Notes: The Canadiens are now 4-1 at the Bell Centre in these playoffs. Their only home loss was the 1-0 overtime defeat to the Bruins in Game 4. a The Canadiens are 5-3 all-time against the Bruins in the seventh game of a playoff series. a The Bruins made no changes to the lineup that beat Montreal 4-2 in Game 5 on Saturday. a The team that scores first has won every game in this series. The Habs are now 6-0 in the playoffs when scoring first. Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' ' |
