Authentic Baker Mayfield Jersey |

All players on NFL rosters hope they don’t get the phone call from their
teams telling them to bring their playbooks to turn in because they are being
released as rosters are trimmed to 53 players this last weekend.
Packers tight end Robert Tonyan didn’t get that call Adidas
Seth Jones Jersey , but he did get a text. However, that text
didn’t come from anyone associated with the Packers.
According to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, Tonyan was in his hotel room playing a
video game when the text came in asking him to come to Lambeau Field to turn in
his team-issued iPad.
But when he got to the stadium he found people excited for him because he had
made the team, only he was unaware of this fact due to the message on his
phone.
“I went up there and they were like, ‘Congratulations,'” Tonyan said. “I’m
like, ‘What the hell is going on? Why is everyone happy up here? I’m coming in
to turn in my stuff. I got the text.'”
Packers security officials found the source of the message but did not tell
Tonyan who it was.
Tonyan caught four passes for 31 yards and a touchdown in Green Bay’s
preseason finale.Evander Kane followed a similar timeline after each of his
first eight NHL regular seasons.
Pack up the locker, say goodbye to teammates and get frustrated watching
other players compete in the playoffs rather than getting his own opportunity on
the big stage.
A late-season trade to San Jose changed all that for Kane, who is excited for
his first chance at the postseason after 574 career games when the Sharks open
their first-round series in Anaheim on Thursday night.
”I’ve said it in the past: I think I’m a playoff player,” Kane said Monday.
”I’ve watched the playoffs and when I look at the style of play and it’s
something I was jealous because I wasn’t involved in it. Now I get that
opportunity and I have to back those words up.”
Kane has had plenty of personal success since making his debut for Atlanta as
an 18-year-old in 2009 after being the fourth overall pick that year. But his
teams never had success in Atlanta, Winnipeg or Buffalo and he always spent the
spring as a spectator rather than as a participant.
He joins a franchise that has been a playoff regular Authentic
Daniel Kilgore Jersey , making the postseason for the 13th time in
the past 14 seasons under general manager Doug Wilson, including a run to the
Stanley Cup Final two years ago.
”Fans and players in this organization are spoiled when it comes to that,”
center Logan Couture said. ”You make the playoffs 13 of 14 years – obviously it
starts at the top with Doug and the coaching staffs they’ve brought in here.
It’s pretty remarkable really to make the playoffs that many times. I missed it
once and it’s devastating when you miss it. We’re lucky to play for this
organization.”
That’s why Kane was so excited about the trade to San Jose on Feb. 26 for two
draft picks and a prospect.
Kane has made a big impact on the Sharks since arriving. He stepped right
onto the top line with captain Joe Pavelski and has used his speed and physical
play to deliver nine goals and five assists in 17 games.
His presence sparked an eight-game winning streak in March that helped San
Jose clinch a playoff berth and he has helped fill a scoring void created when
Patrick Marleau left as a free agent for Toronto last summer and then Joe
Thornton went down with a knee injury in January.
”In the short period he’s been here, he’s brought speed which backs teams
off, he’s brought a physical presence, which keeps some people honest,” coach
Peter DeBoer said. ”For me, the biggest thing is he’s probably added a goal a
night for us. When Patty Marleau left, and we asked guys to take a step, you’re
not scoring as much as you normally would, and there was a lot of 2-1 games and
we found a way to battle things out. Eventually Authentic
Baker Mayfield Jersey , Jumbo going down, it started to catch up
with us. That extra goal a game that he’s added to our lineup, whether it’s him
scoring himself or creating a goal, that’s a difference in this league.”
Kane was hampered late in the season by an undisclosed injury that forced him
to miss two games before returning for the season finale against Minnesota on
Saturday.
Kane didn’t look like his usual self that game but said it was important to
get rid of some ”cobwebs” before the playoffs started and he gets the chance to
back up his belief that he can thrive at this time of year.
”It’s a fast, hard-nosed game,” he said. ”The intensity ramps up and the
style of play. It’s hard to score. There are a lot of 2-1 games, 3-2 games, and
you have to find different ways to score. I’ve always prided myself on being
able to score in different ways and I think the physical element as well. That’s
a big part of the playoffs. Guys who have 20 hits all year the next thing you
know they have 20 hits in two games. It’s definitely a di jhby
