What happened last night 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.Hossa overcomes adversity: Fans of the Chicago Blackhawks were finally treated to a major milestone for veteran forward Marian Hossa, who Tuesday night became the 44th player to score 500 goals. Hossa, 37, is one of four active players to reach 500, joining the Florida Panthers Jaromir Jagr (749), the Colorado Avalanches Jarome Iginla (612) and the Washington Capitals Alex Ovechkin (526). Hossas career accomplishments are more than just numbers and Stanley Cups. If he hadnt been able to overcome a massive low point early in his career, he might not have attained his future Hall of Fame success. On March 11, 2000, Hossa was a 21-year-old prospect for the Ottawa Senators when he tried to one-time a loose puck against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He missed and on his follow-through, the blade of his stick struck Leafs defenseman Bryan Berard in the right eye. The devastating injury nearly cost Berard his career, and the former No. 1 overall pick was never the same. Hossa struggled after that incident. At the time of Berards injury, Hossa led the Senators with 27 goals, including 16 points in his previous 16 games. But after the incident, in the last 14 games of the season Hossa scored just two goals. The horrific accident clearly affected Hossa. The guilt could have derailed his career, but he was able to overcome it to become an elite player, and he remains a quality person.We want more Florida: After being dormant for a while, the Battle of the Sunshine State was renewed last season, and it appears to be back in full force. On Tuesday, the Tampa Bay Lightning earned a 4-3 shootout victory over the Panthers at Amalie Arena in Tampa. The highly entertaining game ended dramatically and could indicate an interesting season series. Lightning captain Steven Stamkos tied the game with 5.5 seconds remaining in regulation before rookie forward Brayden Point scored in the shootout en route to victory. Tampa begins 3-0-0 for the fifth time in franchise history and for the second consecutive season. If the hockey gods were kind, they would create a postseason matchup between the Lightning and Panthers. Both teams should finish in the top echelon of the Atlantic Division, but a playoff series would be epic, especially with how these teams are currently built. A series like that would be outstanding for the fans and great for hockey. Plus, the travel would be easy.Radulov makes a good impression: Most fans in Montreal will be talking about Al Montoyas 36-save shutout performance to lead the Canadiens to a 4-0 win over the defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins?on Tuesday night at Bell Centre. It was a strong performance from the backup goalie, who made his third consecutive start because No. 1 Carey Price remains sidelined with the flu. Lost in the victory for Montreal was the performance of forward Alexander Radulov. Before fans get excited about his offseason addition, lets see how this situation plays out for the Canadiens. The 30-year-old, who signed a one-year deal worth $5.75 million, registered a goal, six minutes in penalties and three shots on Tuesday. It was no doubt an interesting move when Radulov left the KHL to sign with the Canadiens. The former Nashville Predator played only three seasons (two different stints) in the NHL before heading back to the KHL. He earned a bad reputation but appears to have matured and is headed toward being a low-risk, high-reward venture for Montreal. Pharrell x adidas NMD Human Race Black .

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Matt Kuchar finished a long Saturday at Colonial exhausted and still a stroke in front. "This morning feels like a day ago," Kuchar said. "Its hard to believe its the same day." After making a 12-foot birdie putt at the par-3 16th hole, the same place where his day began at 7:13 a.m. to finish the suspended second round, Kuchar had two nifty par-savers to finish a 1-under 69 in the third round. He was at 11-under 199, one ahead of Graham DeLaet of Weyburn, Sask., Boo Weekley, Chris Stroud and Matt Every. When the second round was suspended Friday night because of an approaching storm, Kuchar had just hit his tee shot at the par-3 16th. He resumed there early Saturday with a two-putt from about 40 feet. That was part of three quick pars to keep his one-stroke lead after two rounds, then he played in the final group that finished just after 5 p.m. Kuchar made his go-ahead stroke in the third round at No. 16 -- after falling behind by as many as two strokes -- before his approach shot at the 379-yard 17th landed in a greenside bunker. He blasted to 13 feet and saved par before hooking his tee shot at No. 18 into the left rough. He found more tall grass near the green with his second shot before pitching inside 3 feet. "To not give away a stroke and maintain a one-shot lead is a good position to be in. Everybody has got to come get me," Kuchar said. "Not only a bunch of players, but a bunch of good players up there. ... Im looking forward to having the lead and seeing if I can maintain it, and my goal will be to grow the lead." Weekly, even with problems maintaining focus in his left eye, and Every shot third-round 66s. Stroud had a 67 and DeLaet, playing with Kuchar, had three back-nine bogeys before a birdie at No. 18 for a 69. Ranked No. 13 in the world -- the highest in the field -- Kuchar started the third round with a birdie at the easy par-5 first hole. At the 458-yard third hole, his eight-foot birdie attempt rolled over the cup without falling, ending his streak of 34 consecutive made putts under 10 feet this week at Hogans Alley. Kuchar missed another short one, a five-foot par putt after blasting out of a greenside bunker at the seventh hole. He then missed the green on at the par-3 eighth and bogeyed again, putting him 9 under and two strokes behind DeeLaet, the 31-year-old Canadian looking for his first PGA Tour victory.dddddddddddd "I felt like they were easy up-and-downs," Kuchar said. "I was glad to bounce back." DeLaet was at 12 under after he and Kuchar both had birdies at the par-5 11th hole before his bogeys at Nos. 13, 14 and 17. Kuchar won the WGC-Accenture Match Play in February, and will try Sunday to join Tiger Woods as the only multiple winners on the PGA Tour this season. Kuchar is a five-time winner, but never has won twice in the same season. There could be a lot of competition in the final round at Colonial, where 12 players are within three strokes of the lead. That dozen includes defending champion Zach Johnson, who also won in 2010, at 202. Johnson shot 68, his 18th time under par his last 19 rounds at Hogans Alley. The lone exception being his closing 72 last year that included a two-stroke penalty. Five-time winner Ben Hogan is the only player to win Colonial more than twice. "Certainly the confidence of playing well here is something Im going to try to lean on," Johnson said. Weekley, who has won twice but not since 2008, had gotten to 10 under during his second round Friday when he made consecutive birdies after making his turn. But he had a late four-hole stretch with a double bogey and two bogeys. He was back at 10 under Saturday with consecutive birdies at Nos. 11 and 12, and was still there after an up-and-down finish. "When we got done playing (Friday), I went out to the range and practised a little bit and focused back on what we are here to do , and thats win and play the best we can," Weekley said. There was a bogey at the 14th when he missed the fairway with his tee shot and the green with his approach, but he made a 6-foot birdie at No. 15. He missed a five-foot par chance at No. 16, but finished with a birdie after his approach inside three feet at the closing hole. After having problems reading greens in recent tournaments, Weekley this week went to doctor to have his left eye checked. But he still hasnt found out what the problem is. "I get like a real bad twitch when Im trying to focus on something, especially staring down on the ball," Weekley said. "Its happened, Id say probably 15-20 times so far this week." Even with that problem, hes still got a chance to win. ' ' '
