MONTREAL, Quebec -- There he was, the next face of the Toronto Maple Leafs, standing and answering questions in the Montreal Canadiens home dressing room underneath the black-and-white photos of Canadiens legends.The photos of Hall of Famers wraps around the Montreal dressing room. Just above Auston Matthews hung pictures of all-timers Henri Richard, Gump Worsley, Yvan Cournoyer and Ken Dryden.Yes, its a little strange that the Maple Leafs No. 1 pick is getting his first major exposure to the NHL world while setting up shop in the heart of the Bell Centre. At one point, he mentioned how excited he was to play in Toronto, the center of the hockey world, to which a Montreal reporter suggested that it might not be wise for him to repeat that too loudly in this town.Yeah, well, I guess you could argue it, he said with a shrug.Its a nontraditional start to an NHL career, but for Matthews, thats just about right. After all, this is the guy who bypassed college and junior hockey to play in Switzerland during his draft year.He isnt afraid of a different path. Nor is he afraid of the path ahead in this tournament.Matthews entered World Cup of Hockey training camp as the 13th forward for Team North America coach Todd McLellan. Chatting last month at his summer home, McLellan shared the Matthews game plan, written in pencil.I think weve got to go with a little bit of the playing experience right off the bat, he said. But Matthews might play in the exhibition games and be lights-out, and maybe hell play.For now, Matthews, 18, is fine with that plan. He knows hell have to earn every minute of playing time, and the reality is that he has very little time to do so. Team North America plays its first of three pre-tournament games on Thursday in Quebec City.But in just two practices, you could see Matthews working his way up the depth chart. On Tuesday, he was taking shifts on a line with Nathan MacKinnon and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, a trio of No. 1 picks. Matthews was also alternating on the second power-play unit.He earned his way onto the roster by wowing general managers Peter Chiarelli and Stan Bowman during the World Championships, and hell get the opportunity to do the same with this coaching staff.Hes going to experience the worlds best right off the bat, McLellan said after practice Tuesday. Hes played against some very good players at the world junior level -- certainly at the World Championships -- never as concentrated per country as it is right now. Its baptism by fire, but just being around him for two days, hes very capable of handling it.This isnt McLellans first glimpse of Matthews, which helps the cause. McLellans son Tyson is headed to the University of Denver to play hockey. He competed against Matthews for years.McLellan remembers noticing Matthews for the first time in bantam hockey, and even then his skill level stood out.Very talented, McLellan said.The history goes back years. He already knows what Matthews new teammates are starting to realize this week. Hes a high-level talent who made this team because of his ability to make plays every time hes on the ice.Theres a maturity to his game, Team North America defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere?said of his first impression of Matthews. Hes making plays like its nothing out there. Hes so young. I cant imagine at his age what Id be doing out there. Id be scared as hell.Matthews doesnt have time to be scared. If he wants to play in this tournament and have an impact, he has to show it immediately.Im trying to earn as much ice time as I can and build my way up the lineup, Matthews said. Thats just the way it goes. I dont have time.He wasnt originally going to be on this team. Chiarelli made it no secret that he preferred experience when constructing the Team North America roster. But Matthews forced his way on when he was one of the best players on the ice representing Team USA at the World Championships. He might be the extra forward now, but the good bet is that wont last.Matthews is a very professional, driven young man who understands the game at a high, high level with high skill, Team Canada and Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock said. Hes not going to take a back seat to anybody for very long. Adbert Alzolay Jersey .

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Michael Cammalleri deflected all the credit for his big overtime goal to teammate Taylor Hall.Cammalleris second goal of the game with 18 seconds remaining on the clock in the extra period capped New Jerseys comeback from three goals down in the third period and gave the Devils a 5-4 win over the Nashville Predators on Saturday.Hall took a pass from Cammalleri and brought the puck up the right side into the offensive zone on a 2-on-1 break, waited before passing it back to Cammalleri cutting up the middle and he fired it past Predators goalie Pekka Rinne.I (got) the puck to Hallsy and he did the rest, Cammalleri said. A really highly skilled play by him to hold it off, hold it off and freeze the goalie and the defenseman, and throw a little baby saucer pass across ice. A heck of a play by him.The Predators had possession of the puck for most of overtime, but the Devils held them off and capitalized on their late scoring opportunity.Even though they had the puck for the majority of that period in overtime, I felt like we were on the right side, forcing shots that Keith (Kinkaid) should stop, Hall said. Its about pouncing at the right time. They got tired and they got too far into our end and let us have a 2 on 1. A lot of times is about who makes the first big mistake and we capitalized on it.Cammalleri started the Devils comeback from a 4-1 deficit after two as he fired a rebound into an open net 25 seconds into the third.Andy Greene pulled New Jersey within one 30 seconds later and Adam Henrique tied it with a power-play goal through Rinnes legs with 7:23 remaining.To the guys credit, I thought they came out with a good first shift, Devils coach John Hynes said. Obviously, when you score that early and get a couple early it gives you momentum.Hall had a goal and two assists, Travis Zajac also had two assists and Green added one for the Devils, who were 0-4-2 in their previous six road gamees.dddddddddddd Keith Kincaid stopped 38 shots to improve to 3-1-2.Kevin Fiala had two goals and P.K. Subban and Roman Josi also scored for the Predators, who fell to 9-1-2 at home. Rinne, a five-time All-Star, gave up five goals on 22 shots.Its an ugly, ugly way to lose a game and a terrible feeling for everyone, Nashville coach Peter Laviolette said. I thought we had plenty of opportunities to win when it was 4-3, but it didnt happen.New Jersey evened its record to 6-6 in games beyond regulation, and Nashville fell to 0-4.Fiala gave the Predators a 1-0 lead when Matt Irwins point shot appeared to bounce off him into the net with 3:46 left in the first.Hall tied it 1:17 later when he swatted a rebound out of the air past Rinne.Nashville went back ahead on Subbans wrist shot from the slot with 39 seconds left in the opening period. Five of Subbans six goals have come at home.Fialas second goal increased the Predators lead to 3-1 on a tic-tac-toe play from Craig Smith and Mike Ribeiro at 6:02 of the second period.Josi extended the Predators advantage to 4-1 when he blasted a one-timer from just inside the center of blue line past Kinkaid with 5:29 left in the second.We let them in for 2 on 1s, two easy chances and that cost us the game, Predators defenseman Mattias Ekholm said of the third-period collapse. We got a point and well take it, but we should have had two.Game notes The Predators claimed LW Reid Boucher off waivers after he was released by the Devils the previous day. ...
