What happened over the weekend that you need to know about? Joe McDonald gives us his take on the biggest and best performances. This is where we say, Morning, Joe.Taking it outside: The Heritage Classic brought the game back outside between the Edmonton Oilers and Winnipeg Jets at Investors Group Field on Sunday in Winnipeg. After a two-hour sun delay, the Oilers beat the Jets 3-0, improving to 5-1-0. The Oilers have won five of their first six games for the first time since 1985-86. Some believe the NHL is producing too many outdoor games ever since the Winter Classic became the leagues premier event, beginning in 2008. But playing outside is a great way to celebrate the game and its fans, and there should be more. Yes, it can be a logistical nightmare to host one of these games, but the league does a tremendous job dealing with the elements. The players enjoy the outdoor games. There should be more, not fewer, of them, and instead of picking only marquee matchups, the league should figure out a way to get more teams involved. Some pretty cool outdoor venues would be amazing places to watch a hockey game, including outdoor stadiums in Europe.Ice trouble: After the New York Islanders played their first regular-season game at Barclays Center last season, one player said the ice was like skating in quicksand. Well, one calendar year later, the players are still complaining about the ice. The Islanders have played four games at home this season and the ice has been described as unplayable. Coach Jack Capuano does not want to hear any excuses, of course, and captain John Tavares gave the standard both teams have to play on it line, but this cant continue. The unseasonably warm weather could have something to do with the issues, but the team is working close with the NHL to get fix the problem. The Islanders are trying to become a perennial playoff contender, and the organization wants its product to have the best possible chance to be successful, so the ice has got to be better. The team hired a full-time ice manager during the offseason to help, but theres no reason this should still be an issue. Players will be at risk of injury if it isnt addressed. Barclays Center is a nice arena in a growing neighborhood of Brooklyn, but its terrible for hockey. The Islanders need their own arena. They can opt out of their 25-year lease with Barclays after next season. There should be other options, whether a new home or vast improvements to Barclays. If the ice doesnt get better, players arent going to want to play for the Islanders, and the ability to lure free agents will melt faster than the Barclays ice.Canucks falling back: Third-period goals by Nick Ritchie and Corey Perry helped the Anaheim Ducks to a 4-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks in Anaheims home opener at Honda Center. Many had the Canucks finishing near the bottom of the Pacific Division standings once again this season. In the early going, however, they have surprised some people with their play. But they have now dropped back-to-back games against the Los Angeles Kings (4-3 in the shootout) and the Ducks. Anaheim, a team that produced 103 points last season, was expected to do much of the same in 2016-17. The Ducks are 2-3-1 in their first six games but that will change, especially with more games at home ahead of them. Yeezy 350 Shoes For Sale Canada . Jon Montgomerys gold medal in skeleton at the Whistler Sliding Centre and his subsequent auctioning off of a pitcher of beer in the village square elevated him to folk-hero status. Adidas Yeezy 350 Canada Wholesale . Bryzgalov stopped 25 shots on Saturday in the Oklahoma City Barons 4-1 victory over the Abbotsford Heat. The Oilers signed Bryzgalov to a one-year $2 million contract last Friday after shedding payroll by dealing defenceman Ladislav Smid to the Flames. http://www.wholesaleyeezy350canada.com/ .S. Open champion Justin Rose birdied the first hole with a blind shot he hit to a foot of the pin, and he stayed in front Tuesday until he completed a 4-under 67 for a two-shot lead over Jason Dufner in PGA Grand Slam of Golf. Cheap Yeezy 350 Canada . -- Kyrie Irvings last-minute 3-pointer helped seal another victory for Cleveland -- and the Cavaliers longest winning streak since LeBron James left. Yeezy 350 Canada Online . Ivanovic was leading 7-5, 1-0 when Hantuchova withdrew after falling 0-40 behind in the second game. The match started slowly for Ivanovic, who surrendered her first two serves as Hantuchova took a 5-3 lead. Haas boss Guenther Steiner says the teams main focus is now on its 2017 car because of the potential gains to be made under the new regulations.Significant changes are coming to F1 in 2017, with the new regulations bringing in faster and wider cars. Though Haas has impressed so far in its debut season the team feels it is beneficial to have a head start next year.?When asked how next years car was coming along, Steiner said: We are developing in the wind tunnel, as I think everybody else is. But our main focus now is on 2017, our main focus is gone from 16. You can [only] do so much for 16 and where we ended up in 16 was better than anybody expected anyway, so lets focus on next year.Steiner says Mercedes dominance of the V6 turbo era, something it achieved with a project which started several years before 2014, highlights the benefit of long-term thinking in F1.?If you focus now on 16 that car has got another 12 races left. Next years car has hopefully five years left and if you build a good platform to start off with its almost impossible to catch up with.Look at the Mercedes example, they come out with a rocket with the new regulations, nobody could cattch up.dddddddddddd. Everyone gets close but to make the big leap is almost impossible because your windtunnel time is restricted so nobody can do more to get better. Obviously we are focusing on next year because it doesnt just mean next year, its the next five years.Ferrari plans another engine upgrade for the British Grand Prix, something which will be available to Haas immediately, and Steiner says there is a limited amount of upgrades to come to the car itself for the rest of 2016.No, not much else. We are still discussing a front wing update but we are not 100 percent sure if we want to do it or not, if the gain is big enough to do it or if it is a distraction. There are small parts in aero but they all signed off an in production, but no big aero ...Once you develop something in the windtunnel it still takes two, three months afterwards to put it in production. In the windtunnel is one thing but to make a part to put on a car is another thing.Steiner suggested any new front wing upgrade will come after the summer break.? ' ' '
