Bruins are facing a team that dominated like no other this season

CHICAGO -- Patrice Bergeron left the arena in an ambulance. The Bruins headed home on the brink of elimination. Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals didnt go according to plan for Boston, with Patrick Kane scoring two goals to lift the Chicago Blackhawks to a 3-1 victory and 3-2 series lead on Saturday night. The Bruins must win at home on Monday night to force a seventh game and keep their hopes alive for a second championship in three years. "Were going to fight," David Krejci said. "Were going to fight with everything we have and force Game 7." It would help if they had Bergeron. But their top forwards status is in question after he was taken to a hospital in an ambulance with an undisclosed injury. That happened after he skated gingerly off the ice after playing just two shifts in the second period, and coach Claude Julien didnt say much about it afterward. He would not reveal how it happened or any other details. He did say Bergeron "may be in the next game," but brushed aside further questions. "Guys, Im not going there, so anything else but injury here," Julien said. "Ill update you when I have an update. Theres nothing more. We can ask a million questions. I dont have any more information than probably you guys do right now." The Bruins dont have much more time, either. What they do have is a history of fighting back when theyre close to being knocked out. "Weve been down this road before," Krejci said. "In past years, weve been missing some key players and other players that (were) at the top. This is the time of the year when other guys are going to step up and you know its do-or-die for us." They were in several tough spots in 2011, only to keep rallying on the way to the championship. They opened the playoffs that year with back-to-back losses to Montreal but won that series in seven games. In the Stanley Cup finals, they trailed 2-0 and 3-2 before rallying to beat Vancouver for their sixth title. This year, they nearly got knocked off in the first round after jumping out to a 3-1 series lead against Toronto. They dropped the next two games and were down three in the third period in Game 7 before rallying to win that series, and their resolve is being tested again by the Blackhawks. "Weve been there before and done well in that situation," Julien said. "Right now, our goal is to create a Game 7. And to create a Game 7, weve got to win a Game 6. Weve been good at home, and we need to be good at home the next game. Its as simple as that. Theres no panic. Youre not going to push us away that easy." The problem is the Bruins are facing a team that dominated like no other this season, getting off to a record start on the way to finishing with the most points in the NHL. The Bruins got a solid performance in goal from Tuukka Rask, who had 29 saves coming off a 6-5 overtime loss, but Chicago dictated the tempo, particularly in the second period. That changed down the stretch, even without Bergeron on the ice. "Its kind of sad that you had to lose a guy like that to wake the team up and start battling out there," Rask said. "Youre in the finals, you play 20 minutes and thats not going to be good enough to get you a hockey game. We have to realize that. Now were going to have some new bodies, some new lines and everybody needs to put 110 per cent in and leave their hearts on the ice." The Bruins looked like they might be building some momentum when Zdeno Chara fired a bullet from the left circle past Corey Crawfords glove to cut the deficit to one early in the third. They nearly tied it with 2:20 left, only to have Crawford stop Jaromir Jagr after the puck careened around in front of the net, and the Blackhawks hung on from there. Now, the Bruins are simply trying to hang on, period. "Weve been through it before, but it doesnt help to think about what happened in the past," Rask said. "We have to live in the moment. We have to be ready on Monday, get the first win. And Game 7, if that happens, its going to be up for grabs." Wholesale Air Max Cheap .

NAPLES, Fla. -- Ariya Jutanugarn has already decided the first thing she will do if she wins the bonus cash that accompanies the Race to the CME Globe title.Shell take her mom out for a celebratory dinner.Figure on appetizers and dessert being included, since the prize is $1 million.This would have seemed an unlikely scenario a few months ago, but Jutanugarn has arrived at the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship as the leader for the CME Globe -- with that $1 million bonus -- and the yearlong money title. A five-time winner this season, Jutanugarn will be player of the year unless world No. 1 Lydia Ko prevails this week.This year I changed my focus, Jutanugarn said. I try to focus just really positive, not too negative. Even if I hit bad shots, dont really complain about it and just try to hit the next shot.Those bad shots dont seem to happen too often.The 20-year-old from Thailand added something to her pre-shot routine in April, and it had nothing to do with her grip or her swing. She started smiling before most shots, a little trick shes used to keep her mind right over the course of a round.Its worked wonders.Ariya has been playing great and shes consistently putting herself in good positions, Ko said.Most around the LPGA Tour call Jutanugarn May -- a fitting moniker this year. She made three starts this May and won them all, her first LPGA victories coming in succession and starting her springboard to No. 2 in the world.And her ascension into the level of the LPGA elite has been rapid.Jutanugarn didnt make the cut in tthe first stop this season, shot a final-round 84 in her second start and finished a combined 39 shots behind the winners during a rather unremarkable two-week stretch in March.ddddddddddddYou still remember? Jutanugarn asked, rhetorically. Did I really shoot 84?Jutanugarn was kidding. She recalls every detail of that day, hammering away with her driver over and over again -- even on the holes where she shouldnt have hit driver -- trying to figure out what was going wrong.Those days are long gone.Jutanugarn, Ko and Brooke Henderson are the three players entering this week with the most realistic chance of hoisting the CME Globe, which goes to the winner of the yearlong points race on the tour. All posed with a plexiglass box holding $1 million to represent the bonus cash that goes to the Globe winner on Monday, and thats when Jutanugarn let her mind wander to what winning it would be like.Her scoring average after her first six starts this season was 72.4. In 21 starts since, its 69.3.The bad shots, she said, inspired me to hit better shots.She leads the money race by a slim margin over Ko entering this week, and she needed no time to decide which trophy shed want most this week if she could leave Naples with only one.To me, it would be player of the year, Jutanugarn said. Its a really huge honor to win that award. To me, thats the hardest one to win.Maybe so, but shes made contending for it look easy. ' ' '
