BEREA, Ohio -- Browns rookie safety Derrick Kindred broke his ankle during the teams bye week and will miss the remainder of the season.Coach Hue Jackson did not divulge how Kindred was injured, but said Wednesday that it was not from doing anything malicious and it does not change the way the team feels about the fourth-round draft pick from TCU.Kindred made five starts and appeared in all 12 games. Hes one of the few Cleveland rookies to stand out during a so-far winless season. Kindred was credited with 44 tackles (30 solo) and five defensed passes.Jackson did not say who will replace Kindred.The Browns also signed rookie defensive back Trae Elston, who originally signed with New Orleans and spent five weeks on Tampa Bays practice squad.Cleveland hosts Cincinnati on Sunday.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL . Phil Esposito Bruins Jersey . Defencemen Drew Doughty, Shea Weber and forward Ryan Getzlaf also scored for the Canadians, who started their gold-medal defence 2-0.

Vancouver Whitecaps and Toronto FC failed to make the postseason while Montreal Impact fell at the first hurdle losing heavily to Houston Dynamo in the Eastern Conference Knockout Round. Johnny Bucyk Bruins Jersey . -- Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson asked his players a simple question during Fridays morning shootaround: How many of them had ever been on a team 14 games over . The big fish is gone, so teams will circle around other targets when NHL free agency opens Friday.Even with Steven Stamkos staying with the Tampa Bay Lightning on a $68 million, eight-year deal, the free agent market presents plenty of big-time players from forwards Milan Lucic, Loui Eriksson and Kyle Okposo to defensemen Brian Campbell and Dan Hamhuis.Theres some high-end guys this year and itll be interesting to see what they get paid, Washington Capitals general manager Brian MacLellan said. I think the market will fall into place after those guys find destinations and establish the top salary level.Stamkos $8.5 million cap hit could set that bar, even though he acknowledged taking less money than he couldve made on the open market.Some people when theyre in this position chase obviously the most money possible, Stamkos said on a conference call Thursday. For me I recognized the situation. ... There could be some money left out there, but for me thats not what its about.More than a handful of players should be able to cash in even though the salary cap only went up slightly to $73 million.The Toronto Maple Leafs, Buffalo Sabres and Detroit Red Wings were among the teams that expressed interest in Stamkos. Now theyll have to circle back to Plan B, which could include Okposo, Eriksson, St. Louis Blues captain David Backes and right wing Troy Brouwer, Chicago Blackhawks left wing Andrew Ladd and New York Rangers forward Eric Staal.Lucic has been linked to Edmonton after the Oilers traded Taylor Hall to the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday.Im hoping a lot of those guys go quickly because the trickle-down effect is always how everybody else figures out where things are going to go, Brouwer said Wednesday. Youre going to see the top guys, and theyre always going to get their money. The big dogs always get to eat first.Brouwer went from being unsure about landing a long-term deal going into the final year of his contract to being in line for one after scoring eight playoff goals. Okposo impressed with 64 points in the regular season, and Capitals left wing Jason Chimera set himself up for a nice deal with 20 goals.The defense market is weaker after the Floriida Panthers traded for and signed Keith Yandle and the Arizona Coyotes did the same with Alex Goligoski.dddddddddddd. But Campbell is willing to take a short-term deal to try to win another Stanley Cup. That was one of the motivations for Stamkos in taking below market value to re-sign with Tampa Bay.Were trying to put as competitive a team on the ice (as possible) and we asked Stammer, will you work with us on this? Lightning GM Steve Yzerman said. Stammers contract, hes the captain of our team, hes our leading goal-scorer, he plays in all situations. The contract, it works for us.Predators GM David Poile, who acquired defenseman P.K. Subban from the Montreal Canadiens for Shea Weber, said a lot of players have been re-signed by their teams before unrestricted free agency, much like years before.The only problem is that while the crop is deep, the cap space isnt.How many teams are going to be capable of adding free agents? There are going to be a few, Anaheim Ducks GM Bob Murray said. There is going to be a flurry in the beginning, but if you recall last year at this time, there was a flurry, and then it went dead. Im thinking that could become more of the norm going forward. There are too many players for jobs.For some teams, like the Lightning and the Stanley Cup-champion Pittsburgh Penguins, maintaining is more important than adding. The Blackhawks, who won in 2010, 2013 and 2015, dont have the space to add much, but GM Stan Bowman knows how to take his chances at bargain buys.There should be no shortage of those, either, starting with Staal, who at 31 isnt a superstar but still has something left in the tank. Stamkos himself might be a bargain based on his point-a-game production.At the age of 26, I believe a player is really entering the prime of their career, Yzerman said. Hes going into his peak years now. Regardless of what happens statistically, that to me is an indicator of playing your best hockey. I think Stammers best years are ahead of him.---Follow Stephen Whyno on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/SWhyno . ' ' '
