DETROIT -- The Detroit Red Wings surely liked what they saw of their new top line Friday night. Johan Franzen had two goals and two assists, Gustav Nyquist a goal and three assists and David Legwand a goal and two assists in the Red Wings 7-4 win over the New Jersey Devils. With four of the teams top centres heading into the season out with injuries, Detroit traded for the veteran Legwand - a Detroit-area native - in a deal with Nashville at Wednesdays trading deadline. The Red Wings wanted Legwand to be their No. 1 centre. Franzen is the right wing and Nyquist is on left wing. "Obviously two great players, world-class players, and its an honour to play with them, and we had the puck tonight," Legwand said. "We were moving it and I think, obviously, when you can move and skate its going to create some chances and opportunities." Red Wings coach Mike Babcock certainly liked the line. "Legwands line was outstanding with Gus (Nyquist) and Mule (Franzen), really set the tone for us," Babcock said. "We need that against (Travis) Zajacs line with (Jaromir) Jagr on him. I thought those guys did a great job for us. We were calm on the bench, did a real good job." Brendan Smith, Kyle Quincey and Drew Miller also scored for Detroit. Jonas Gustavsson made 21 saves. Adam Henrique had two goals, Patrik Elias and Jagr also scored for New Jersey. Cory Schneider, who gave up seven goals for the first time in his career, stopped 25 shots. "The game spoke for itself," Devils coach Pete DeBoer said. "Disappointing. We didnt have many people that were very good tonight." The Red Wings led 5-3 after a wild second period in which seven goals were scored. Franzen gave Detroit a 2-0 lead when Nyquists shot went in off Franzens glove. But New Jersey scored three goals in 2:21 to take the lead. Elias short-handed goal put the Devils on the board, Jagr got his 20th goal of the season and 701st of his career, and Henrique got his 20th. Then the Red Wings got three goals in 3:14. Franzen scored his second of the game and 15th of the season on the power play. Nyquist picked up his 16th goal and Quincey gave Detroit a two-goal lead with his fourth goal. Legwand got his first goal as a Red Wing and Miller also scored in the third period Henrique got his second goal of the night with 1:18 left. Smith opened the scoring in the first period. He came straight off the bench and sent a one-time slap shot from just inside the blue line past Schneider. It was Smiths third goal. NOTE: The seven goals were a season high for Detroit. . Franzen has five goals and six assist for 11 points in the five games since the Olympic break. . New Jersey had its penalty reduced by the NHL for trying to circumvent the leagues salary cap on the contract of Ilya Kovalchuk, who has since retired and returned to Russia. The Devils originally lost their first-round pick in this years draft and were fined $3 million. New Jersey will pick 30th in the first round of the 2014 draft and the fine was reduced. ...

Although head coach Randy Carlyle jokingly wondered how much actual training Bolland got done while in London. "I dont know how much training goes on when you go back to the junior team that you played for so I wouldnt read too much into that," laughed Carlyle after the Maple Leafs were put through an up-tempo practice that concluded with a 10-minute bag skate on Thursday.England are in Durham for the second Test against Sri Lanka, their first visit to the ground for a Test in three years. England have played five games at the Emirates Riverside, sporting an impressive record with wins in all of them, triumphing by an innings in three.Heres a look at those Chester-le-Street successes... Broad blasts out AussiesWhen Chester-le-Street last hosted an England Test in August 2013, a Stuart Broad-inspired England beat Australia by 74 runs to win the Ashes. Retained the week before with a draw in Manchester with England 2-0 up with two Tests to play, Broad had one of those spells seemingly only he can produce, taking 6-50 in the second innings to skittle the Aussies for 224 when chasing 299 to win. We look back at Englands last Test at Durham, where they beat Australia by 74 runs in the 2013 Ashes It gave Broad match figures of 11-121 after a five-for in the first innings, but the Test didnt all go Englands way. The hosts were bowled out for 238 in the first innings, with Alastair Cooks dogged 51 from 164 balls the only knock of real note. Chris Rogers (110) hit a maiden Test ton for Australia as they earned a slender 32-run first-innings lead, before Ian Bell (113) also hit a hundred to help set the visitors a testing chase, in spite of terrific second-innings figures of 7-117 for Ryan Harris.Australia were cruising to their target though, racing along to 109-0 inside 40 overs. Graeme Swann (2-35) picked up Rogers (49) and Usman Khawaja (21), while Tim Bresnan (2-36) added the key wicket of David Warner (71) before Broad ripped through the rest of the order. Broad took 5-22 in a nine-over third spell - including bowling both Michael Clarke and Steve Smith - as Australia collapsed, losing eight wickets for 56 runs, the last of which was Broads sixth, sealing a memorable win.Bopara hits three in a row Ravi Bopara hits a third hundred in a row for England during the 2009 Durham Test Ravi Bopara, remember him? Absent from Englands Test team for almost four years now, its easy to forget that at one stage he looked set to be a permanent fixture in the side for the next decade, particularly as he scored a third straight hundred for England in this Durham Test against the West Indies in 2009.An England team reeling from 51 all out in defeat to the same West Indies team in Jamaica mere months earlier, recalled Bopara for the fourth Test of that tour in Barbados and he responded with a maiden century, hitting 104. Though he missed the fifth Test, 143 followed in his next outing at Lords, before 108 at Chester-le-Street.Bopara put on 213 with Cook (160) for the second wicket as England amassed 569-6 declared in their first innings, before James Anderson (9-125) took nine wickets in the match to run through the West Indies - who were forced to follow on - in an innings-and-83-run win that secured the series. Bopara would play only seven further Tests for England, with a highest score of 44 not out.Chanderpaul cashes in Shivnarine Chanderpaul kisses the Chester-le-Street surface after hitting a hundred for the West Indies in 2007 The West Indies were the visitors two years earlier in 2007 too.dddddddddddd A dead rubber with England already 2-0 up in the series going into the fourth and final Test, the visitors at least showed some fight, particularly Shivnarine Chanderpaul, who hit 136 not out in the first innings and 70 in the second.Despite Chanderpauls ton in the first dig though, England bowled the Windies out relatively cheaply, for 287, with Ryan Sidebottom taking 5-88. Paul Collingwood (128) then cracked a hundred himself as England built a 113-run lead, although Fidel Edwards (5-112) had helped reduce the hosts to 165-6.Chris Gayle hit 52 and Dwayne Bravo 43 in the second innings, but Chanderpaul lacked support elsewhere, with number 11 Corey Collymores 16 not out the next best. Monty Panesar took 5-46 to dismiss the West Indies for 222 - Chanderpaul the last wicket to fall, bowled by the left-arm-spinner - and England chased down their 110-run target with relative ease, winning by seven wickets.Thorpeys 100th Test Graham Thorpe sends a ball to the boundary during his 100th and final Test for England An otherwise unmemorable Test against Bangladesh in 2005 is highly significant, if only for the fact it was Graham Thorpes 100th in a storied England career, and would prove to be his last. England were preparing for the Ashes that summer and much pre-series debate centred around which two of Thorpe, Bell and Kevin Pietersen would make up Englands middle order.As we now know, Pietersen would come in and take the Ashes by storm, but Bells selection was likely due to hitting his maiden Test century - an unbeaten 162 off just 168 balls - against a hapless Bangladesh in Durham. Thorpe himself looked fantastic in his final knock, scoring 66 not out in an unbroken 187-run stand with Bell. Marcus Trescothick had earlier smashed 151 off 148 balls to further add to the tourists misery following their first innings 104 - Steve Harmison taking 5-38 on his home ground.Once England finally declared on 447-3, Bangladesh made a better fist of things in their second effort with the bat, managing 316, with Aftab Ahmed hitting a run-a-ball 82 not out, and skipper Habibul Bashar 63. But Matthew Hoggard (5-73) ran through the lower order, taking the final five wickets as England won by an innings and 27 runs.Johnsons dream debut Richard Johnson celebrates one of his six wickets on debut for England at Durham The 2003 series against Zimbabwe saw the emergence of two new England fast bowlers who tore through the touring Zimbabweans. One has gone on to 443 Test wickets and counting, and the other is Richard Johnson.James Anderson (5-73) had burst onto the scene with a first-innings five-for in the first Test win at Lords, while Johnson went one better on his debut in Durham, taking 6-33 to dismantle Zimbabwe for 94 all out in response to Englands first-innings 418 - Anthony McGrath top-scoring with 81.Johnson couldnt add to his tally as Zimbabwe followed on, but managed nine further wickets in his second Test against Bangladesh later that winter before struggling in his third in Sri Lanka and subsequently being dropped from the side. Anderson again took centre stage in Durham with 4-55 as England dismissed Zimbabwe for 253 and won the first ever Chester-le-Street Test by an innings and 69 runs.Watch live coverage of the second Investec Test between England and Sri Lanka at Emirates Riverside on Sky Sports 2.
