TORONTO -- AS Roma officials promise their trip to
Toronto will be no casual kickabout.
Langway-Adidas-Jersey/">Rod Langway Jersey . Toronto
FC hosts the three-time Italian league champions in a
friendly Aug. 7 at BMO Field, a game that Roma CEO Italo
Zanzi said falls within a key part of their pre-season.
"This is a major part of preparation for the season, this
is not a vacation," Zanzi said at a news conference
Wednesday in Torontos Little Italy. "Its a real
competitive endeavour and something that also ties into
our global brand building. Our first team will be on our
tour, our first team will be playing, it is pre-season so
like any other franchise, youre going to be resting
players, trying out players, but were going to have our
first team all throughout our tour." The storied Italian
franchise that was founded in 1927 will travel to Toronto
after playing the MLS all-star game on July 31 in Kansas
City. The Italians will play another North American game,
which is yet to be announced. So Roma fans can expect to
see Italian stars Francesco Totti -- who has been at the
club for over 20 years -- and Daniele de Rossi, although
de Rossi has been linked to Chelsea in a possible summer
move. "This is going to be a real match for us, we are
going to be in the midst of intense preparation for next
season," Zanzi said reiterated. "We have a new coach
(Rudi Garcia), we have players who are ready to go, so we
are going to take this match very seriously. "We intend
to play our first team, from a competitive standpoint we
want to win, obviously were going to be evaluating
players, but overall this isnt a situation where were
bringing anything but our very best." For Toronto FC, the
friendly is sandwiched between two MLS regular-season
games -- Aug. 4 at New England and Aug. 10 versus the
visiting Seattle Sounders. TFC president and GM Kevin
Payne insisted the timing isnt a problem -- Toronto would
run hard in training on that Wednesday regardless. He
said Toronto will also field its starters. "I dont think
our first team or Romas first team is going to be playing
90 minutes, but well see the first teams on the field
against one another," he said. Zanzi and Payne said the
fit is ideal in a city that boasts half a million
Italians. "Toronto, as a very cosmopolitan city, boasts
one of the largest Italian populations in the world
outside of Italy," Payne said. "And we expect that
unfortunately for us perhaps, we may not be the home team
at this game. Well see about that, but there will surely
be some people cheering for AS Roma." Toronto has hosted
numerous European clubs in the past, including Liverpool,
Aston Villa, Real Madrid and Bolton.

attacking midfielder arrives on a free transfer from
Spains Malaga. The 28-year-old joins Scottish striker
Kenny Miller and Argentine midfielder Matias Laba as
designated players on the Whitecaps roster.
Maruk-Adidas-Jersey/">Dennis Maruk Jersey . The 23-
year-old McNabb was an All-Star with the American Hockey
Leagues Rochester Americans this season, posting seven
goals and 22 assists in 38 games. In 12 games with the
Sabres this season, McNabb has accumulated six penalty
minutes and a plus-1 rating. He has scored one goal and
seven assists in 37 career games with the Sabres, who
originally selected him in the third round (66th overall)
of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft.
Orpik-Adidas-
Jersey/">http://www.shopcapitalsonline.com/Capitals-
Brooks-Orpik-Adidas-Jersey/ . The Oilers will try
to get back in the win column on Monday when they
continue a four-game road trip with a battle against the
Buffalo Sabres. Edmonton won its third straight game last
Wednesday against visiting San Jose, beating the Sharks
3-0 as Scrivens stopped 59 shots to set an NHL record for
saves in a regular-season shutout.The Dallas Stars
returned to the postseason, after missing for five
straight years, and appear to be a team on the rise with
two of the games best under-25 forwards leading the way.
Off-Season Game Plan looks at a Stars team that is
trending in the right direction, but likely needs an
offensive boost to take the next step. The Stars were a
strong puck possession team, that made the playoffs
despite below-average 5-on-5 goaltending results (more a
reflection on backups than starter Kari Lehtonen) and
were carried offensively by Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin,
who combined for 163 points on 231 Stars goals. They were
also the only Stars forwards to finish with more than 35
points, so that could be the next area on which to focus
for improvement -- boosting the secondary scoring so that
the weight doesnt fall so heavily upon Benn and Seguin.
"I think if you want to be a contender, you have to be
deep down the middle," GM Jim Nill told the Dallas
Morning News. "Thats something weve talked about over and
over again." Having needs is not a big deal -- every team
can get better -- but the Stars are in a good position
because, after last summers additions of Tyler Seguin and
Valeri Nichushkin, theyve added building blocks that give
the team a reason to have a positive outlook. Now, its a
matter of finding the right pieces for the supporting
cast so that the Stars are ready to make noise in the
postseason, taking the next step to compete with the
powers of the Western Conference. The TSN.ca Rating is an
efficiency rating based on per-game statistics including
goals and assists -- weighted for strength (ie. power
play, even, shorthanded) -- Corsi, adjusted for zone
starts, quality of competition and quality of teammates,
hits, blocked shots, penalty differential and faceoffs.
Generally, a replacement-level player is around a 60, a
top six forward and top four defenceman will be around
70, stars will be over 80 and MVP candidates could go
over 90. Sidney Crosby finished at the top of the 2013-
2014 regular season ratings at 87.12. Salary cap

$625K Acquiring Tyler Seguin from the Boston Bruins last
summer shifted the Stars franchise. They landed a premier
young scorer around whom they could build and Seguin
responded to an increased role in Dallas by finishing
fourth in the league with 84 points. Signed to a team-
friendly deal for five more years? Thats icing on the
cake. Seguin paired with Jamie Benn on the Stars first
line and they were a formidable tandem. Only Anaheims duo
of Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry, with 128 points, were
teammates with more points than Benn and Seguin, who had
116 last season. Benn is a model power forward complement
to Seguin and at 24-years-old, is hitting his prime. Over
the past four seasons, Benn has been an elite offensive
performer, ranking second only to Evgeni Malkin, in
points-per-60-minutes during 5-on-5 play (minimum 3000
minutes). Seguin, still in the infancy of his career,
ranks 14th on that list. An undrafted free agent out of
Brown University who climbed through the Central Hockey
League, ECHL and AHL before reaching the NHL, Ryan
Garbutt is blue collar, yet surprisingly productive. He
was one of four forwards to record at least 30 points and
100 penalty minutes last season and, since arriving in
the league, this grinder has been generating shots on
goal like a scorer. Over the past couple seasons, Rich
Peverley has been one of the lowest-percentage finishers,
among players that have generated at least 200 shots, but
hes generally an effective and versatile forward who can
move around the lineup as needed. The primary issue for
Peverley is that he collapsed during a game last season
and there is the possibility that the cardiac event will
prevent him from playing again. Theres a lot of
uncertainty regarding Peverleys future, so the Stars will
need to have some options ready if Peverley cant make it
back. After his rookie season, even though he scored one
goal in 24 regular season games after the Olympics, it
sure appears that the Stars stole Valeri Nichushkin with
the 10th pick in last summers draft. He has a huge frame
and has high-end skill; its just a matter of harnessing
that talent and getting the most out of it. Nichushkin
spent much of the year riding shotgun with Benn and
Seguin and if the Russian teenager develops quickly, that
line could be unstoppable. Alex Chiasson burst out of the
gate, with nine points in nine games, before points and
shots on goal dried up, and his ice time declined. A 6-
foot-3 winger with some skill and a solid two-way game,
Chiasson was one of the unluckiest players in terms of
goaltending save percentage when he was on the ice. 35-
year-old winger Erik Cole is two seasons removed from a
career-high 35 goals, but that seems like eons ago. His
production has fallen the past couple seasons and, with
one year left on his deal, Cole could be a buyout
candidate. Shawn Horcoff was a spare part for much of the
season, playing under 12 minutes a game from January
through April, and he wasnt terribly effective when he
did play, but raised his game in the playoffs and the
last year of his contract pays $3-million (compared to
his $5.5-million cap hit). Cody Eakin provides a solid
two-way game, but may not yet score enough to capably
hold down a top-six role. At the same time, hes 23, so
its possible that his offensive game could continue to
grow, particularly if there is a skill upgrade on his
wings. Agitator Antoine Roussel is becoming even more
annoying to play against because, in addition to his in-
your-face style of play, hes chipping in offensively.
Since 2006-2007, there is one other forward (Steve
Downie, 2009-2010) who, while accumulating more than 200
penalty minutes, had more than the 29 points that Roussel
contributed last season. Picked up on waivers from
Pittsburgh, Dustin Jeffrey is battling for his NHL life.
He has 31 points in 124 career games, and last seasons 34
games represented a career-high, but with only 9:34
average time on ice. If the Stars were to seek another
scoring centre, they could try for Paul Stastny or
Mikhail Grabovski in free agency but, aside from those
two, might be looking to the trade route for a bigger
fish like Eric Staal or Jason Spezza. Those wont come
cheaply, either, but that might be the kind of move to
push the Stars to a new level. Returning Defence Player

50.9% RFA $900K It hasnt been the easiest ride for Alex
Goligoski in Dallas, as hes so frequently compared to the
package (James Neal and Matt Niskanen) sent to Pittsburgh
to acquire him, but Goligoski is coming off a season in
which he played a career-high 24:19 per game, finishing
with his second-highest point total (42) and favourable
possession stats despite facing quality opposition.
Trevor Daley was handling a reduced workload for the
first three quarters of the season, before he ended up
playing top pair minutes down the stretch. Thats a bit of
a step up from what Daley has provided normally,
thoughout his career, but the 30-year-old held his own,
so its not unreasonable to expect that, next season, he
could pick up where he left off. While it would be easy
to pin a nepotism label on Jordie Benn holding a spot
with the Stars, since his brother is a franchise player,
but Jordie has earned his own place, making steady
improvement and he averaged more than 20 minutes of ice
time per game after the Olympic break last season. On the
Stars, only Brenden Dillon has more hits and blocked
shots combined than Benns 240 last season. 24-year-old
Kevin Connauton was a part-time player in his first NHL
season and while he didnt play a big role, or stand out
especially, he was effective at getting pucks to the net.
There appears to be competition available for the 5-6-7
spots on the Stars blueline, so Connauton might have a
chance to earn more minutes. Veteran Sergei Gonchar was
something of a free agent bust, with diminishing ice
time, and just four points in his last 35 (regular season
plus playoff) games. He still has a year left on his
contract, but it would come as no surprise if the Stars
sought a team to take the 40-year-old off their hands. At
his salary, it may not be easy. Aaron Rome has played 52
games for the Stars, since signing as a free agent a
couple of summers ago, and he hasnt done anything to
suggest hes worthy of more than a part-time role. A
rising young shutdown defender, Brenden Dillon has size,
toughness and improved his skating enough to get signed
as a free agent out of junior. Hes come a long way since
scraping into the league as an undrafted free agent and,
as a restricted free agent this summer, is likely due for
a health pay raise. Dillon has been among the most
effective Stars defencemen over the past couple seasons
and, at 23, he should continue to get better. If the
Stars are going to take a step forward, they could use
another top-four defenceman, effectively to make up for
the departure of Stephane Robidas, who was traded to
Anaheim last season. Maybe thats prospect Jamie Oleksiak,
or maybe it comes via free agency, where Matt Niskanen,
Anton Stralman, Tom Gilbert or Andrei Markov would be
among the potential free agent upgrades. Returning

14th pick in 2011, 6-foot-7 Jamie Oleksiak should have a
chance to crack the Dallas lineup next year. Even with
outstanding size, hes not very physical and has been
relatively mediocre in 23 career NHL games, but a 21-
year-old with his size and mobility should have a good
chance at success. A 6-foot-4 power forward Brett Ritchie
finished the regular season strong, with 16 points in his
last 16 games before suffering a lower-body injury. Hes
recently returned to the lineup for the AHL playoffs, and
while Ritchie could start in the AHL next season, his
upward trajectory should have him knocking on the door.
Overhyped since he was picked 11th overall in 2010, Jack
Campbell has struggled to perform at a high level
consistently enough to know if hes going to make it to
the NHL. While he missed a bunch of time with injuries
this year, it is promising that he had a .942 save
percentage in 16 AHL games. The 22-year-old could likely
use another year of seasoning to show that he is ready.
Drafted in the fourth round in 2007, Colton Sceviour has
steadily improved to the point that hes on the cusp of
the Dallas roster. He scored nine goals and 15 points in
in 32 (regular season plsu playoff) games with Dallas,
performing effectively in his first legitimate NHL look.
A second-round pick in 2012, Devin Shore had a terrific
sophomore season at Maine and his offensive upside puts
him above some of the other Stars prospects. If Shore has
a big junior season, as the Black Bears captain, he may
be ready to turn pro. Picked in the fifth round in 2010,
John Klingberg is a smooth-skating offensive defenceman
who is coming off a strong season in the Swedish Hockey
League. The 21-year-old should be ready to challenge for
an NHL job quickly. Jason Dickinson is a skileld centre
who was the 29th pick in last summers draft. Hes enjoyed
a strong season on powerhouse Guelph team, scoring 102
points in 88 (regular season plus playoff) games. Hell
need time to fill out, and get stronger, but he will be
intriguing a couple years down the road. The 13th pick in
2012, Radek Faksa hasnt put up big scoring numbers, which
limits his upside, but he has the size and conscientious
play to make it in a checking role. Taken in the second
round in 2010, Patrik Nemeth is a big, stay-at-home
defenceman, and while he battled injuries last season, he
struggled in eight games with Dallas; perhaps an
indication that more time on the farm is needed. A third-
round pick in 2010, Alex Guptill had 94 points in 110
games over three seasons athe University of Michigan, and
now embarks on his pro career. He has size and offensive
ability, but will need some time in the AHL as he gets
accustomed to a pro schedule. Drafted in the second round
last summer, Philippe Desrosiers is a promising, athletic
goalie, but its goign to be years before its reasonable
to have any expectations on his pro prospects. So far, so
good. Curtis McKenzie was a sixth-round pick in 2009 and
had four unremarkable seasons at Miami-Ohio, but had a
superb first pro campaign, finishing second on the Stars
AHL team in scoring. Stars advanced stats and player
