Teams usually take a day off after playing on consecutive days but for the struggling Colorado Avalanche, there are no breaks when trying to turn things around.After beating Minnesota at home Saturday and losing at St. Louis on Sunday, the Avalanche were practicing Monday morning.Granted both weekend games were matinees, but putting players on the ice right away -- with the Arizona Coyotes in town Tuesday night -- speaks to Colorados struggles.The biggest problem right now is scoring. Colorado has three goals in the last four games but was able to win one of them 1-0 because of Calvin Pickards 32-save shutout against the Wild.Weve got to look at each other and look at ourselves in the mirror, defenseman Francois Beauchemin said. We can all get more. Its not one, two, three, four guys; its everybody thats got to step up their game. When we all play together were a good team but when we were down a few guys things are not working. We really need everybody to work hard and help make the system out.The Avalanche were without fourth-line forward Blake Comeau for Sundays 5-1 loss to the Blues because of a groin injury. His status for Tuesday has not been announced.The remedy for their struggles might be another team that is struggling. The Coyotes are off to a disappointing 4-7 start and were dominated by Anaheim in a 5-1 loss Friday.That prompted a spirited practice Sunday.I hope theyre frustrated, coach Dave Tippet told the Arizona Republic. You look at our record, were not near what were capable of.Like the Avalanche, the Coyotes are dealing with injuries. Center Martin Hanzal wont play against Colorado because of a lower-body injury that has kept him out of the last two games. He has not started skating but the team hopes he can return within the week.Arizona could get defenseman Michael Stone back in the lineup. Stone has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury.Stone took part in some of Sundays practice, which the team hopes will kick start an upward swing.I felt like we needed a practice like that, and I think everybody battled hard, defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson told the Arizona Republic. Thats all we have to do, especially after a game like the other night. We didnt show up at all. We didnt play good enough, we didnt try hard enough, so I think that was a good practice to get it out of our system and move forward here.Colorado has won only two games in two weeks, and one of them came in Arizona on Oct. 29.The Avalanche will play Tuesdays game with heavy hearts after it was announced Marek Svatos, who played seven seasons in Colorado, died Saturday night. He is survived by his wife, Diana, and two children.Center Matt Duchene and forward Cody McLeod are the only remaining Avalanche to be teammates with Svatos. Team vice president and governor Joe Sakic played five seasons with Svatos and was shaken by the news.Only 34. Its sad, Sakic told The Denver Post. We feel for Diana and the boys and his family, and our condolences go out to them. Its tough. Its tough for them. Xander Bogaerts Red Sox Jersey . Fernandez, coached in Toronto by former two-time Olympic silver medallist Brian Orser, scored 267.11 points and is the first champion to successfully defend since Russias Evgeny Plushenko in 2005 and 2006. David Ortiz Red Sox Jersey . Catch all the action on TSN2 at 11pm et/8pm pt. The nine-time Big 12 champion Jayhawks are positioning themselves for another title, as they have run out to a flawless 6-0 mark in conference play thus far. http://www.redsoxapparelsshop.com/mitch-moreland-jersey-c-43/ . LOUIS -- Valtteri Filppula assisted on three of Tampa Bays four goals, and the Lightning beat the St. Roger Clemens Red Sox Jersey .1 million pounds ($61.2 million) on Saturday, giving the beleaguered English Premier League champions a major lift. Steven Wright Red Sox Jersey . -- Josh Sterk scored once and set up two more as the Oshawa Generals edged the visiting Belleville Bulls 3-2 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action.CLEVELAND -- John Greco figured hed go to training camp, try to win a starting job and hopefully be rewarded with a new contract. The Browns had other plans. Greco, who made 10 starts at left guard last season after Jason Pinkston contracted blood clots in his lungs, agreed to terms Tuesday on a five-year contract through the 2017 season. Financial terms were not disclosed. "It caught me off guard a little bit," Greco said. "Im thrilled and a bit relieved. Im happy the Browns have value in me." Pressed into the starting lineup when Pinkston fell ill, the versatile Greco did not miss an offensive snap over his first nine starts and solidified one of Clevelands strongest units. The 6-foot-4, 315-pounder was part of a line that helped running back Trent Richardson rush for a franchise rookie record 950 yards and protected rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden, who passed for 3,385 yards -- another team rookie mark. Greco is the first veteran entering his final season under contract to receive an extension from the Browns new regime. "One of our goals," said CEO Joe Banner, "is whenever possible to develop and keep our own players. Were glad in this case that it worked out, and was mutually beneficial." Although he has a new deal, Greco isnt guaranteed a starting job by first-year coach Rob Chudzinski. However, Greco showed last year that hes more than competent and is definitely the front runner as camp approaches. During spring practices, Greco rotated with Pinkston and Shaun Lauvao -- last years starter for all 16 games at right guard -- but took more snaps with the first-team offencce than his teammates.dddddddddddd Greco said winning a starting job "is huge" but he isnt taking anything for granted and promised to work hard to keep the Browns trust. "John is a solid, all-around teammate, on and off the field," Chudzinski said. "He was given an opportunity to play last year and really showed well. Hes respected in the locker room for his approach, consistency and team-first attitude." Greco, 28, spent three seasons with St. Louis, which drafted the Youngstown, Ohio, native in 2008. The Rams won just three games in his first two years before going 7-9 in 2010. Greco senses the Browns are on a similar plane to make a big jump in the win column this season. He noted the Browns were young last season and that Clevelands players have done some growing on and off the field. "Its a completely different feel," he said. "You can tell its ripe for a push to win some games. Thats the mindset and attitude going into camp." ---- NOTES: The Browns also signed free agent WR Naaman Roosevelt, who played 16 games the past three seasons with Buffalo. He has 25 career receptions for 396 yards with one touchdown. Roosevelt will be reunited with former Bills WR David Nelson, who signed as a free agent with the Browns earlier this year. Nelson will start camp on the physically-unable-to-perform list as he recovers from a knee injury that kept him out all of last season. On Monday, Nelson appeared to trip while making a cut on the Browns indoor turf. He was checked by a trainer and continued his workout. ... Banner will meet with the media on Wednesday.
