INDIANAPOLIS -- All Hakeem Nicks really wanted in free
agency was a chance to resuscitate a once-promising
career.
Infante-royals-jersey/">Omar Infante Royals Jersey .
He was willing to play on a one-year deal, he was willing
to work out a fair price and his only significant
requirement was finding another star quarterback who
could get him the ball. On Friday, the former Giants
receiver found his new team: Indianapolis. "Hakeem is a
big, tough, and highly competitive wide receiver who
knows what it takes to win," Colts general manager Ryan
Grigson said in a statement issued by the team. "His big-
play potential requires attention from the defence every
time hes out on the field. He adds another highly
talented playmaker to our offence." Terms of the deal
were not immediately available, though it is believed to
be for one year. Nicks was the Giants first-round pick in
2009, and became an immediate contributor. He had back-
to-back 1,000-yard seasons in 2010 and 2011 and was part
of the Giants Super Bowl-winning team following the 2011
season. But injuries sidetracked his career the past two
seasons. In 2012, Nicks was limited to just 53 catches,
692 yards and three touchdown catches in 13 games. The
numbers were marginally better last season when played in
15 games. He finished with 56 catches and 896 yards but
failed to score a touchdown. The Colts believe if Nicks
is healthy, he can help them. The 26-year-old Nicks joins
a receiving corps led by perennial Pro Bowl player Reggie
Wayne, who is rehabilitating from a torn ACL, and
emerging young star T.Y. Hilton. And, of course, Nicks
will be catching passes from one of the NFLs best young
quarterbacks in Andrew Luck. Indy was in the market for
another receiver after last years free-agent flier on
Darrius Heyward-Bey didnt work. And with Wayne trying to
come back from his own injury, the Colts wanted another
veteran to help mould a large group of young receivers.
Since joining the Colts in January 2012, Grigson has been
unafraid to take some calculated gambles. He traded a
second-round pick to Miami for up-and-down cornerback
Vontae Davis, a move that has panned out. Last year, he
traded a first-round pick to Cleveland for running back
Trent Richardson, a move that drew widespread scrutiny
when Richardson didnt live up to the expectations of a
top-five draft pick. He took a chance last year on
receiver Darrius Heyward-Bye, a move that didnt work out,
and he now has another injury prone former Giant to go
along with running back Ahmad Bradshaw, who signed with
Indy in June and re-signed this week.

years William Gay kept quiet.DETROIT -- Jimmy Howard
failed to stop Alex Ovechkins shot in the final seconds
of regulation. But that was the last time he let a puck
get past him in a successful return to the ice. Patrick
Eaves scored on Detroits seventh attempt in a shootout
and Howard denied Washington seven times, giving the Red
Wings a 4-3 victory over the Capitals on Friday night.
Howard made 26 saves after missing four games with an
injured left knee. "I felt surprisingly good," he said.
"I didnt have any issues at all with the knee, which I
think is a great sign because I came back last time and
still felt it every once in a while." Ovechkin tied the
game with 7 seconds left in the third period, but was one
of seven shooters who couldnt score on Howard. "I had
opportunity before to put puck in the net," Ovechkin
said. "Howard played really well." Detroits Gustav
Nyquist scored a tiebreaking goal midway through the
third period, but the Red Wings couldnt prevent the NHLs
goal-scoring leader from sending the game to overtime.
The Capitals pulled their goaltender late in regulation
and the move paid off. After a short break on the bench,
Ovechkin had time and space to wind up for a slap shot
from above the circles that sent the puck past Howard and
into the net to make it 3-all. "Ovechkins a dangerous
guy," Detroit coach Mike Babcock said. Ovechkin has 39
goals this season, his highest total since scoring 50
times during the 2009-10 season The banged-up Red Wings
welcomed back two key players: Howard and Henrik
Zetterberg Zetterberg had missed two games with a back
injury. "I think Zetterberg on the bench really helped,"
Babcock said. "I dont care who you are, when a lot of
your best players arent there, youre wondering where the
next goals coming from." Michal Neuvirth stopped 42 shots
to match a career high. One of his first was perhaps his
best, flashing his glove to snag Nyquists shot off a
rebound just in front of the net midway through the first
period. He also gave Washington a shot to win in the
shootout, stopping the first six shots he faced. "Very
frustrating being so close to a win, but at least we got
one point," he said. Jason Chimera put the Capitals ahead
1-0 at the 15:24 mark of the first period on a power play
and teammate Casey Wellman tied it at 2--all midway
through the third, scoring on his third straight shot in
a 2-second sequence.

"Took a couple of whacks at it and it went in," Wellman
said. Washington had a chance to tie the game again when
it went on the power play with 3:29 left in the game.
Howard, though, helped the Red Wings stay ahead by
smothering a shot from Ovechkin. "He made huge saves on
the penalty kill late," Babcock said. "They had good
chances and he made great saves." The lead didnt last
much longer because Ovechkin made it 3-all late in
regulation. "People dont realize how hard that shot is,"
Capitals coach Adam Oates said. "The ice is terrible at
that time, the pass comes a long way. Just to get good
wood on that puck is very difficult. He seems to shine at
that moment." Drew Miller tied the game early in the
second and Danny DeKeyser gave the Red Wings their first
lead late in the period. "All in all, the guys worked
really hard and we scored a goal late," Oates said. "I
think the guys gotta feel pretty good about that. Yeah,
you want to win it, but I think they feel pretty good."
Howard helped, too, and will be on the U.S. team at the
Winter Olympics in two weeks if he can stay healthy.
Detroit star forward Pavel Datsyuk missed his 12th
straight game with a lower-body injury. Red Wings general
manager Ken Holland said he hopes Datsyuk can play at
least one game in the next week. The captain of Russias
team has vowed he will be healthy enough to go for gold
in his home country, but he declined to talk to a
reporter following a postgame chat with Ovechkin, an
Olympic teammate, that lasted about 10 minutes. Datsyuk
often picked up, bent and extended his left leg as he
talked with Ovechkin. "We just talked about his injury,"
Ovechkin said. "I hope hes going to be OK." NOTES:
Washington defenceman Mike Green was scratched with a
concussion, a night after he was hit hard into the boards
on a check by Columbus Boone Jenner. "Were going through
the process of testing him," Oates said. ... Nyquist has
scored in five of six games and has 10 goals in 29 games
this season, putting him in contention to replace injured
Red Wings teammate Johan Franzen on Swedens team at the
Sochi Games. ... Neuvirth also made 42 saves on Feb. 5,
2010.
