What happened over the weekend 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.Halak should be dealt: Remember Denis Lemieux in Slap Shot, picking up the phone in the hotel room and saying, Trade me right [expletive] now? That should be New York Islanders goalie Jaroslav Halak. His agent, Allan Walsh, spoke his mind on Twitter over the weekend, saying the Islanders three-goalie rotation is not working. Hes right. Halak, who earns $4.5 million per season, was on the bench as the backup Sunday as Thomas Greiss made 33 saves to help the Islanders to a 5-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs at the Barclays Center. Greiss should be the No. 1 for the Islanders. After Halak suffered a season-ending groin injury in March, Greiss helped the Islanders make the Stanley Cup playoffs, and he was solid in the second-round loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. Of Halak, Greiss and Jean-Francois Berube (also a client of Walshs), Islanders GM Garth Snow should trade one, and Halak should be the guy to go. Hes attractive because of his play for the Islanders, and hes coming off helping Europe get to the World Cup of Hockey finals. The problem is his contract is hefty ($4.75 million salary this season and $5 million next season), but some teams out there need a good No. 1. Trade him. Ring, ring.Grabner paying off: Cap constraints forced?New York Rangers GM Jeff Gorton to make a couple of offseason transactions that made you scratch your head. One of them was inking forward Michael Grabner, a guy who is now on his third team in three seasons, to a two-year deal worth $3.2 million. But the blue-light-special player helped justify the signing with his third career hat trick to lead the Rangers to a decisive 6-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning Sunday night at Madison Square Garden. Grabner, 28, has five goals and one assist for six points in nine games this season. The Rangers need all four lines contributing to succeed. Specifically, their third line of J.T. Miller, Kevin Hayes and Grabner needs to produce. On Sunday, that trio combined for nine points and a plus-4. Grabner is fast and is good at killing penalties. For him to produce like he did against the Lightning is a strong indication that Gorton is getting his moneys worth.Good sign for Crawford: Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Corey Crawford posted his first shutout of the season with a 32-save performance en route to a 3-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings?on Sunday night at the United Center. It was his 20th shutout of his NHL career. The Blackhawks are 5-3-1 with 11 points and sit third in the Central Division, where you just know five teams will make the playoffs. For Chicago, a team loaded with superstars, this is the season Crawford needs to be at his best. Hes won 30-plus games five times in his career and will need to add to that total this season for the Blackhawks to go deep into the playoffs again. The 31-year-old is 3-3-1 in seven games this season, and those numbers need to improve. A performance like Sundays should be a major confidence boost because he hasnt looked to be in top form. Plain and simple: Crawford needs to be Chicagos best player this season for it to have a chance in the Central.Cheap Air Jordan 1 UK For Sale .

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.WASHINGTON -- The chief organizer of the Rio de Janeiro Olympics says security is his top concern, well ahead of the Zika virus.Sidney Levy, CEO of the Rio Organizing Committee, said Tuesday that keeping athletes and visitors safe from terrorism and other crime is his No. 1 top priority. He called the biggest fear lone wolf attackers.Differently from Zika, securitys at the top of my list -- the very top of my list, Levy said at a Council of the Americas event. We should never forget that these days we live in a society thats very in danger.The plan is to have 85,000 security personnel on the streets. Levy said the 2013 visit of Pope Francis and the 2014 World Cup were tests for Brazil.Francisco Dornelles, Rios acting governor, warned on Monday that budget shortfalls could compromise security and transit at the games. Levy said intelligence officials from 100 different countries are in Brazil monitoring potential threats.Zika, a virus linked to birth defects, has drawn widespread international concern. Levy stressed he does not worry about the virus and said none of the people working for him has contracted Zika. He pointed to expected cooler temperatures during the Olympics in his attempt to assuage fears.If I have to write on a piece of paper my top 10 worries today, Zika wouldnt be there, he said. Im not saying its not a public health issue. It is a public health issue. But we are going into the winter months in Rio and if you see every statistic of last years mosquitos proliferation in the summer and in the winter, it goes very high up in February and reaches the peak, which is the height of the summer. It starts going down, down, down. Right now its almost zero.Levy said Rio organizers did not expect this level of concern over Zika, and he acknowledged that more people around the world are worried about it than Brazilians are. Several high-profile athletes cited it as their reason for withdrawing from the Olympics.We thought that there were too many people here in the States talking about Zika and this is tooo much.dddddddddddd This is too much. Too many negative comments, Levy said. I think it was good for them to hear other voices.Levy was less optimistic about water pollution, saying Rio failed on its promise to clean 80 percent of it by the Olympics, which are set for Aug. 5-21. He said four of the five sites on the Guanabara Bay are tested daily for bacteria and will not pose any problems and left open the possibility of moving the other.The fifth area is closer to the shore and were testing that and depending on the rain and the wind sometimes good, sometimes not so good, Levy said. If closer to the games we see that this is not good enough, were going to change the location to further down the sea. Were very committed to not put at risk any athlete during the competition.The Associated Press has reported that Guanabara Bay has shown astronomically high level of viruses for which the state is not testing.Another issue is the political turmoil in the country. Levy is unsure about the upcoming vote to impeach President Dilma Rousseff, which likely will take place in August.We do pray for the impeachment vote to happen before the games, Levy said. If that prayer is not answered, we hope that (will) happen after the games. We asked the president personally about that, but he cant control his congress and senate. Were going to have to manage whatever happens. It would be ideal of that to happen before the Olympics.Levy said the subway is almost ready and that the light rail is having its soft opening. Because those modes of transportation are new and Brazil has never hosted an event of this magnitude.Security is, of course, part of the core of the agenda, Levy said. But I would say today the main issue for me is the combination of all that: How to make all that work simultaneously on the very first day. .... First day everybodys watching. Its going to have to work. Thats what worries me. ' ' '
