NEW YORK -- ACL injuries are down, the NFL has told its Health and Safety Advisory Committee. In a memo to the committee sent earlier this week and obtained by The Associated Press, the league said research showed there were 30 ACL injuries in games through the preseason and first 13 weeks of the schedule. There were 39 such injuries in 2012, 35 in 2011, 37 in 2010, and 31 in 2009. Anterior cruciate ligament problems are the most severe knee injuries. There was an increase in medial collateral ligament injuries (MCL), from 74 in 2012 to 89 in games this season through 13 weeks. But there were 106 MCL injuries in 2011, 89 in 2010 and 103 in 2009. The injury reporting service Quintiles/Outcome provided the numbers to the league, which then sent them to the committee chaired by 49ers owner John York. The committee also includes Giants owner John Mara, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Packers President Mark Murphy and Falcons President Rich McKay. The data are for all types of ACL and MCL injuries, including tears and sprains. There have been suggestions that knee injuries have gone up since the NFL cracked down heavily on hits to the head and neck area. While there have been several high-profile hits to the knee that sidelined players -- New England tight end Rob Gronkowski, for example -- the league-requested survey of this years injuries does not indicate a trend toward increased major knee problems through 13 weeks. Earlier this week, Patriots coach Bill Belichick claimed injuries were up. He didnt cite specific numbers, but said it was "a matter of record not opinion" that injuries league-wide have been on the rise over the past three years. Belichick blamed a decrease in the number of off-season, preseason and in-season practice sessions and workouts allowed as a main contributor to higher injury totals. League spokesman Michael Signora disputed Belichicks assertions. "We carefully monitor player injuries," Signora said. "There is no evidence that the new work rules have had an adverse effect on the injury rate or that injuries have in fact increased." And with the ACL injuries, the research by Quintiles/Outcome shows the opposite. This season through 13 weeks, about 68 per cent of ACL injuries involved contact with another player. The percentage in the four previous seasons ranged from 67 per cent in 2009 to 55 per cent in 2012. A breakdown by positions showed one tight end, one wide receiver and one quarterback had contact-related ACL injuries through 13 weeks this season. That compares to five such injuries combined at those positions in 2012 and four in 2011. For offensive players in general, there have been six such injuries in 2013 through 13 weeks, compared to 10 in 2012, eight in 2011, nine in 2010 and six in 2009. On defence, there were six ACL injuries involving contact with another player. This compares to nine such injuries in 2012, 10 in 2011, nine in 2010, and seven in 2009. For special teams, there were four ACL injuries involving contact with another player as compared to two last season and four in 2011. DJoun Smith Colts Jersey . The Canucks figured to be active prior to Wednesdays trade deadline, getting a jump on things the previous day when they dealt goaltender Roberto Luongo to the Florida Panthers for netminder Jacob Markstrom and forward Shawn Matthias.

Apparently, the brainchild of a "summer project in 2010 at the MIT Physics Graduate Program" (according to the site http://huvrtech.com/about.html), it feels like a clever campaign from Nike which will release the "Back to the Future II" shoes with power laces in 2015.

All that and more.VANCOUVER -- The Vancouver Canucks werent about to pin Sundays loss on the officials. Still, it didnt stop them from letting off some steam. Henrik Sedins second-period goal was controversially waved off for "incidental contact" on Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen as the Canucks scoring struggles continued in a 2-1 loss to Dallas. Down 1-0 after the first, Vancouver looked to have tied the score at 6:42 of the second when Vancouvers captain beat Lehtonen upstairs from a sharp angle on a power play. But the celebrations were short-lived after officials deemed that Daniel Sedin had interfered with Lehtonen. Television replays appeared to show no contact between the two players, which left both the crowd at Rogers Arena and Canucks coach John Tortorella incensed. "Its a bad call. Its a made-up call," said a frustrated Henrik Sedin. "If its a 50-50 call, then I buy it. If its a 40-60, I buy it. Even a 20-80 (call) ... tough to take." Tortorella said he never got an explanation, but added that the NHL needs to change how it reviews goals. "Im not going to whine about this and that. Its a huge call that was the wrong call, but doesnt determine the winning and losing of the hockey game," said Tortorella, whose team has scored just four goals in losing four straight. "If you dont see it, dont call it. "You have to be sure on that play and I just dont think they were sure. It was the wrong call." Added Daniel Sedin: "Its tough, but the chances we had today, we have to score more than one goal. That shouldnt be the difference." Even Lehtonen, who was brilliant in a 42-save performance against the snake-bitten Canucks, was surprised the goal was waved off. "It happens so fast," he said. "I wish they would maybe use some video replay or something just to make (the calls) right." Valeri Nichushkin and Erik Cole had the goals for Dallas (11-7-2), which was coming off a 7-3 victory over the Calgary Flames on Thursday and extended its road winning streak to six games. Henrik Sedin eventually did score in the third period for Vancouver (11-8-3), which got 21 saves from Roberto Luongo as the Canucks fell to 4-4-1 at home. "Youve just got to play. Thats the bottom line," said Luongo. "Sometimes things go your way, sometimes they dont but you cant let that stuff affect you in a negative way on the ice." After Lehtonen held the Dallas fort in a second period that saw Vancouver hold a 20-5 edge in shots, Cole made it 2-0 early in the third. Henrik Sedin made a bad decision to step up at the Stars blue-line while covering for a pinching Kevin Bieksa, with Cole scoring his second of the season at 1:42 on the resulting 2-on-1. Henrik Sedin finally got Vancouver on the scoreboard at 3:06 when he chipped a shot over Lehtonen with the Canucks on the power play for his fouurth of the campaign.dddddddddddd Vancouver made a late push, but Lehtonen wasnt really troubled much the rest of the way in recording his 10th win of the season as the Canucks mustered just 10 shots in the final period. "Were professionals. Weve got to start burying those chances. Really, enoughs enough," said Canucks forward Ryan Kesler, who played his 600th career game. "We have to bear down and not get frustrated, but we have to capitalize. Thats on us." The Canucks 28th-ranked power play had another chance on the same man advantage after the disallowed goal in the second period, but Lehtonen made a great stop on Bieksa. Canucks forward Alexandre Burrows then redirected a pass from Henrik Sedin that beat Lehtonon but not the post as Vancouver led 33-13 on the shot clock after 40 minutes. "Weve done it a couple different ways on this road trip," said Cole. "Kari was great for us tonight. You could tell he had great focus and was on his game, and really weathered the storm in the second period. "Hes been fantastic. Night after night he continues to surprise even us making unbelievable saves." Another bright spot for the Stars has been their top line, which continued its recent hot streak when Nichushkin opened the scoring at 9:33 of the first period. Benn worked the puck behind the net to Tyler Seguin, who in turn fed the 18-year-old Russian on Luongos doorstep for his second of the season. Seguin had four goals and an assist against Calgary on Thursday, Benn finished with a goal and five assists, and Nichushkin picked up two assists. "They have been real good," said Stars head coach Lindy Ruff. "They had a couple really good opportunities they didnt convert on, but we know it isnt going to keep going at this pace. I hope it does, but it probably wont." Vancouver, which was coming off a 2-1 overtime loss to the San Jose Sharks on Thursday, nearly grabbed an early lead on a Henrik Sedin breakaway that was stopped by Lehtonen less than a minute in. "I thought our team played hard," said Tortorella. "We just need to stay within ourselves and keep on playing and not get frustrated and not let it get to us. "Its not about blowing things up, its a matter of staying with it." Notes: Seguin now has points in four straight games (six goals, two assists). ... Benn was the first Stars player to record six points in game since Mike Modano had two goals and four assists on Feb. 1, 1995. ... Canucks backup goalie Eddie Lack signed a two-year contract extension with the team on Friday. ... Canucks forward Jannik Hansen returned to the lineup after missing 10 games with an upper-body injury. ... Stars forward Vernon Fiddler also played his 600th career game. ... The Canucks host the Florida Panthers on Tuesday, while the Stars welcome the New York Rangers on Thursday. cheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
