MONTREAL – The perseverance of Marty St. Louis continued to shine and inspire his teammates in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals as St. Louis scored 4:35 into the game and added an assist in a 7-2 Rangers win that gave New York a 1-0 series lead over the Montreal Canadiens. Ryan McDonagh tied a team record for most points by a defenseman in a playoff game with a goal and three assists but the rallying cry around St. Louis in his time of need also served as a major factor in the Rangers fourth straight win. "Its been an emotional time for everybody but the guys have been behind me and supporting me," St. Louis said after Game 1. "Their effort is unbelievable. We feel really close right now and were trying to keep feeding off that." Since his mother passed away suddenly on May 8, Rangers forward Marty St. Louis has found solace in the shelter of his team and hockey. With his team trailing 3-1 in their second round series with the Penguins, St. Louis decided to keep playing and while he didnt register any points in their 5-1 victory that night, his presence served as an inspiration that got even greater when he scored in their Game 6 win on Mothers Day. Since his mothers passing, St. Louis now has two goals and two assists and the team is feeding off his strength. "Its been a week of emotions," said goalie Henrik Lundqvist who made 20 saves in Game 1. "Playing in the playoffs is so intense; you try to perform at a high level. At the same time a teammate trying to go through a rough time, so you try to be there as a support, and it makes you think a lot about a lot of things, not only hockey. So you go back and forth. Pay attention to your game and what you need to do, and obviously, other things are important in your life. But I think as a group in dealing with it the right way, we come together and work for one another, and you could see that in the Pittsburgh series. Games 5, 6 and 7, we played really well as a team, and we were on the same page. I think tonight we started the game really well. We set the tone the way we were playing and played just a smart game." On Friday night the wake for St. Louis mom was held in nearby Laval and the 38 year-old veteran didnt return to the team hotel until almost midnight. On Sunday, the team will accompany St. Louis to the funeral. "Its been very emotional for our whole group," head coach Alain Vigneault said following the game. "Hes handled it in an incredible way that probably has helped our team come closer together. Tomorrow is going to be a tough day for our group but we need to be there to support him."

He came back in the third quarter, throwing for one touchdown and scoring on a quarterback sneak from the 1.Rodgers said on his radio show on ESPN 540 in Milwaukee that he has been undergoing treatment. He said he didnt know if he would be 100 per cent for the Packers divisional round game on Jan. 11, though he was confident he would be in a better spot with the extra rest afforded by the teams first-round bye.The injury first occurred two weeks ago in a win at Tampa Bay. Rodgers said that was on the inside part of his calf, whereas Sundays injury was to the outside part of the muscle.Green Bay is off through Friday, when practice resumes. The team will return to a normal week of preparation once its next opponent is determined out of this weekends wild-card games. It could be Dallas, Carolina or Arizona coming to Lambeau Field.Its a significant injury ... you cant really say either way whether, what perccentage its going to be in the game, Rodgers said on the radio show.dddddddddddd But I hope its going to be ... feeling better than it was this past weekend.Offensive co-ordinator Tom Clements has said he was surprised when Rodgers walked out of the tunnel in the third quarter to return to the sideline. Rodgers played well despite an injury that limited his mobility, one of his biggest strengths.Rodgers experienced more pain after Lions tackle Ndamukong Suh stepped on the quarterbacks left leg twice while the quarterback was on the ground.Suh was looking up the field as he stepped back on to Rodgers. The league suspended Suh on Monday for Detroits wild-card game at Dallas this weekend, citing a violation of safety-related playing rules.Rodgers said he was awaiting the outcome of any appeal by Suh to the league.But the only thing I can say, if you step on something in your everyday life, or if you step on somebody on the field, the first reaction seems to be looking back and maybe apologizing with your hands, or pulling your foot back right away, Rodgers said, and Im just not sure thats what happened on Sunday.___Online:AP NFL website:
