MONTREAL -- There was so much more to the Canadiens 6-3 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday night than Patrick Roys return to Montreal. Bobby Hebert Saints Jersey . A game that had the 21,273 in the Bell Centre seats rocking even before the puck was dropped saw NHL trade deadline addition Thomas Vanek score his first three goals as a Canadien. It saw plugger Travis Moen score a spin-around goal worthy of a first-line star. And it had a spectacular performance from Colorado rookie Nathan MacKinnon, who dazzled the crowd and the Canadiens defence for an entire shift before scoring his 23rd goal of the season in the first period. On the downside, Colorado defenceman John Mitchell was taken to hospital for tests after crashing back-first into the end boards at 8:02 of the second period. Roy had no update on his condition after the game other than that it was back injury. The game started with the spotlight on Roy, but players from both teams made sure it was game to remember as well. "I thought both teams played really well and tonight the puck bounced their way," said Roy, the former Canadiens goaltending great who was on his first trip to Montreal as an NHL coach. There was no pre-game ceremony for the player once known as Saint Patrick, but he didnt need one. The fans gave him a long, rousing ovation when he was shown on the scoreboard during the national anthems. Some wondered how the Bell Centre crowd would react to Roy, who won Stanley Cups for the Canadiens in 1986 and 1993 but later demanded a trade and was on the outs with the organization until 2008 when they retired his No. 33 jersey. "I thought they showed lot of class," said Roy. "It was nice. They didnt make a big thing and thats the way I wanted it." Brandon Prust, who left the game late in the first period with an apparent shoulder injury, returned to score a goal and set up Moens tally for Montreal (38-25-7), which won its third game in a row. Trailing by two goals, Roy pulled goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere with 2:20 left to play, but Dale Weise scored into the empty net. Max Talbot and Jamie McGinn also had goals for the Avalanche (44-20-5), which lost for only the third time in 10 games. The Avs end a three-game road trip Wednesday night in Winnipeg. Vanek had a ton of chances since he was acquired from the New York Islanders, who had got him early in the season from the Buffalo Sabres. He finally broke through against Colorado. "It was frustrating," he said. "I think Im pretty emotional out there and sometimes I show my frustration too much. "But its been a tough year moving around, trying to get your first goal with Buffalo and then a new team and then here. But I thought we were generating chances and it just didnt go in. Getting that first goal was nice. I was really pressing the last few games." The Avalanche players clearly wanted to win for Roy, who has taken them from last to fourth in the Western Conference in one season and who is likely to be named the NHLs coach of the year. Roys team responded with a strong opening period. No. 1 overall draft pick MacKinnon put on a show as he ragged the puck in the Montreal zone for most of an entire shift. Then he got the puck alone in front of the net off a strange deflection and deked Carey Price at 18:03. He got 20:55 of ice time and, other than Vanek, was perhaps the best player in the game. Even Montreal coach Michel Therrien was impressed. "For an 18-year-old kid... I had the luxury of coaching great ones at 18 and 19 years old (Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin) and hes right there," said Therrien. "Hes a special player." Roy knew his players wanted to get him the victory, even though he told them to concentrate on getting the two points. "(Ryan) OReilly was hurt and I knew he wanted to play," said Roy. "(Paul) Stastny came back (from a back injury) tonight. "I knew what they were doing. I have a lot of respect for my players and I appreciate it, but I didnt want them to feel the pressure of winning a game for their coach. I wanted them to win for the team. I dont want to put myself ahead of the team. I didnt need a special night." The Canadiens bounced back in the second, as Vanek tapped one into an open goal after Desharnais lured Giguere out of his net on a rush at 7:44. Talbot was parked at the doorstep to knock in a Matt Duchene feed at 9:33, but Moen tied the score at 10:21 with his second of the year and his first since Nov. 22. Prust dove to chip the puck into the middle, where Moen caught it, then did a spin-around move to beat Giguere with a backhand. Giguere took a holding the stick penalty and Vanek made him pay as he converted a Max Pacioretty feed on a power play for the game-winner at 14:45. Montreal was on the power play again when Vanek reached behind his back to deflect an Alexei Emelin shot in at 17:40 for the hat-trick. Only two hats were thrown on the ice. Montreal fans have never been big on the hat-throwing thing. Weise added an empty-netter at 19:00, giving each member of the checking line a goal. "We were energized tonight," said Prust. "We knew it was going to be a big game. We knew they would come hard to get Patty the win, so were glad we spoiled it." Notes: It was Roys first game against Montreal since he was a player on Nov. 6, 2001. Roy opted to put Montreal native Giguere as No. 1 Semyon Varlamov sat out. Roy said Reto Berra will start in goal in Winnipeg. . . Stastny returned from after missing four games with a back injury. . . The Avs went into the game with the NHLs fourth best power play and Montreal with the fourth best penalty kill. Patrick Robinson Saints Jersey .S. Olympic mens hockey team in Sochi will linger.

This stunning machine is easily the best looking car in his collection and the one that I hope he drives the most. The 458 was Ferraris replacement to the F-430, which LeBron owns as well, and is considered to be one of the most beautiful Ferraris ever made. The only problem I have with it is the colour. Its a chrome red, and it just doesnt work. LeBron must be a huge fan of Christmas, because the last time I saw that colour was on a tree ornament.MAYBACH 57S(Credit: autoloandaily.com)This car might be the most appropriate to talk about as this was LeBrons staple when parking at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. Who could also forget that boss license plate the read "KNG OF OH". That license plate couldnt be any more relevant these days considering the Cavs are now 4/1 favorites to win the NBA Championship this year. The only reason why LeBron shouldnt drive the Maybach to the arena anymore is the fact that these cars are now discontinued as Mercedes lost a ton of cash making them. Its hard to believe that a profit couldnt be made on selling a $400,000 dollar car, but when you look at the features this car came with, you can start to understand. Standard features on all models include: a navigation system with voice recognition; air conditioning with 4-zone climate controls; power rear sunshade; rear-seat DVD entertainment system; interior air filter; front and rear seat massage; 21-speaker premium sound system; power tilt/telescopic heated wood/leather-wrapped steering wheel with radio and climate controls; power trunk open/close; voice-activated AM/FM radio with 10-disc CD changer; keyless start; heated front and rear seats; cooled front seats; addaptive cruise control; premium leather upholstery; 18-way power front seats; 14-way power rear seats; heated cup holders; rearview camera; iPod adapter; wireless cell phone link; outside-temperature indicator; universal garage door opener, and last but certainly not least, night vision!HUMMER H2(Credit: xclusivememphis. Saints #28 Jersey. com)Ah yes, the Hummer H2, one of the worst automobiles ever made, and also one of the first cars LeBron owned. James first showed up in the H2 back in his high school days which made many people begin to question where he got the money for the overpriced H2, but when youre the future number one pic in the 2003 NBA draft does it really matter? The only question I had back then was, out of all the cars to spend 80 grand on, why choose a Hummer? Ill give James credit though, he did manage to make the Hummer look better with 28 inch wheels and a slick new front grille. But other than that, it was a complete waste of money. Funny thing about this car was that it was apparently sold on eBay for a "Buy It Now" price of $64,800. Keep in mind that when the Hummer was put on eBay it was already 10 years old.Please understand that these four cars are just a small example of some of the cars LeBron owns. Also in his arsenal are a Ferrari F-430 Spider and 599, Porsche 911 Turbo, Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG, Bentley Continental GT, Rolls Royce Phantom, Jeep Wrangler, Dodge Challenger SRT-8, Chevrolet Camaro, Range Rover HSE and to cap it all off a 1975 Chevy Impala. Not bad LeBron, not bad. In conclusion, LeBrons car collection is as legit as it gets. There were always going to be a few duds, but when you open up a garage and see a Maybach, a Ferrari 458 and a Lamborghini Aventador, youre clearly doing something right. So well done Mr. James! And best of luck in Cleveland. ' ' '
