TORONTO - The Maximum Fighting Championship has released American lightweight Drew (Night Rider) Fickett, citing two straight losses. In his return to MFC, Fickett (41-15) lost by first-round TKO to Brian (The Bandit) Cobb in June at MFC 30. He suffered another first-round TKO at the hands of Tatsuya Kawajiri earlier this month. "Drew had the consent of the MFC to fight in Japan, but he and his management were expressly told that if he lost badly again he would be released, and therefore Drew has been released," MFC president Mark Pavelich said in a statement. "I will not have guys coming and going from the MFC and thinking what they do in other organizations wont have an effect on where they stand in the Maximum Fighting Championship. I have a lot of respect for Drew especially in the way he turned his life around and I wish him the best of luck in his future." Fickett, who was scheduled to fight at MFC 31, quit drinking and rededicated himself to training after a rocky patch that included a public spat with Pavelich in 2008. Pavelich was irate that Fickett planned to appear on a June 2008 Strikeforce card as a late injury replacement. Fickett was due to compete in the MFC at the time and his contract stated he could not fight for anyone else within five weeks of his MFC bout. The two made up publicly and Fickett submitted Matt Veach in just 36 seconds in February at MFC 28. Kavell Conner Jersey .

These teams have combined for just four goals so far in this deadlocked best- of-seven series, with Boston claiming the opener in overtime by a 1-0 score and Washington taking a 2-1 double-OT victory in Game 2. Nicklas Backstrom was the hero for the seventh-seeded Capitals in Saturdays Game 2, as he scored 2:56 into the second overtime to help Washington earn a split in Boston against the defending Stanley Cup champions. Marcus Johansson gained control of the puck after a faceoff in the Boston end of the ice and slipped a pass from the left corner to Backstrom, who fired a wrister to the short side past Tim Thomas. Backstrom registered just his second goal since December 30. The Swede was sidelined for a large chunk of the seasons second half because of a concussion. "[Backstrom is] getting better every game and getting more ice," said Washington head coach Dale Hunter. "Hes been strong, hes going to net, too, and battling for loose pucks." Meanwhile, Caps star winger Alex Ovechkin posted his first point of the series, assisting on Troy Brouwers goal in regulation. Braden Holtby made 43 saves for the Capitals, while Thomas stopped 37 shots. "We just need to be a little bit better than they are at winning battles," said Boston head coach Claude Julien. Benoit Pouliot scored the lone goal for Boston, as he tied the contest at 1-1 with 7:47 left in the third period. It was Pouliots first career playoff goal.dddddddddddd Holtby has certainly exceeded expectations in his first two NHL playoff games, stopping 72-of-74 shots so far in this series for a .973 save percentage and a 0.83 goals-against average. The 22-year-old has been forced into a starting role after injuries to Tomas Vokoun (groin) and Michal Neuvirth (left leg). Washingtons third-string netminder has been backed up by Dany Sabourin in Games 1 and 2 and that expects to be Washingtons goaltending situation for tonights test as well. Neuvirth has been practicing and could be close to returning from his lower-body injury, while Vokoun is still out indefinitely with his groin issues. However, even if Neuvirth is ready to go tonight, Hunter has said he will stick with the red-hot Holtby. The Capitals, who will also host Game 4 on Thursday, hope to gain control of this series on their home ice. Washington had a strong 26-11-4 record in D.C. this season. Boston is playing its first road playoff game tonight since winning the franchises first Stanley Cup title since 1972 with last springs Game 7 victory in Vancouver. The Northeast Division champions were 25-15-1 as the visiting team during the 2011-12 campaign. The Bruins had won seven straight home playoff games before dropping Saturdays double-OT tilt. Washington won three of four meetings against the Bruins during the regular season and Boston and the Caps have split a pair of all-time playoff meetings. The last time the clubs met in the postseason was in the 1998 conference quarterfinals when Washington won in six games en route to their first and only Stanley Cup Finals appearance. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys from china ' ' '
