I felt fine. I felt pretty good in the skate this morning. We were skating well and moving the puck. Its always a bonus to put up five (goals).Price made his first NHL start since injuring his right knee on Nov. 25, 2015. He also missed the first three games of this season because of the flu.For a guy who hasnt skated for a while, because of his flu, he was sharp, Canadiens coach Michel Therrien said. Very encouraging to see.Alexei Emelin, Torrey Mitchell, Shea Weber, Alex Galchenyuk and Artturi Lehkonen scored for Montreal (3-0-1).Hes got such a calming presence, Mitchell said about Price. Hes such a big leader for us. He was joking about not setting the bar too high and getting a shutout in game one, so it was nice to get five goals for him.Jakob Chychrun and Laurent Dauphin scored for the Coyotes.Playing for the injured Coyotes starter Mike Smith, backup Louis Domingue allowed four goals on 19 shots before being pulled in the second period. Justin Peters stopped 23 of 24 shots in relief. Arizona dropped to 1-2-0.It got away from us in the second period, Arizona coach Dave Tippett said. We were all right, we competed hard, but there are areas of our game that we still have to clean up. The execution is not what it needs to be. We need all the parts to work to be competitive.Price wasnt tested much in the first period, stopping all eight shots he faced.Things werent as smooth in the second. A sprawled-out Price was helpless against Chychrun at 6:36 for Arizonas first of the night to make it 4-1. The Coyotes scores again with 3:11 left in the period, a short-handed goal after a bad giveaway by Nathan Beaulieu in his own zone.Montreal put the game out of reach with three goals in less than 4 minutes in the second period.Mitchell made it 2-0 with a one-timer at 2:07 off a beautiful cross-ice pass from Beaulieu. Weber then scored his first in a Canadiens uniform 2 minutes later with a hard slap shot through traffic.It was unbelievable, said Weber of the fans response to his goal. I cant describe the feeling. Its really special. Happy to be part of this team.Galchenyuk dangled around Arizona captain Shane Doan before beating Domingue with a wrister at 5:49 to make it 4-0.Lehkonen fired home his second of the season to make it 5-2 in the third.Emelin opened the scoring for the Canadiens at 13:20 of the first period. Using Andrew Shaw as a screen, he beat Domingue with a slap shot between pad and blocker.Game notes Price is 8-0-0 in his career against the Coyotes. ...

The medical staff initially thought hed torn the ligament, and the test a day later in Cincinnati confirmed it. The NCAA says the University of North Carolinas argument that the governing body lacks jurisdiction in the schools multiyear academic fraud scandal is without merit.In a Sept. 19 filing released by the school Tuesday, the NCAA enforcement staff pushed back against the schools procedural arguments in response to five serious charges by saying all the arguments lacked merit. UNC had argued that its accreditation agency -- which put the school on a year of probation that expired over the summer -- was the proper authority to handle such a matter instead of college sports governing body.UNC also argued that there was an expired four-year statute of limitations and that a March 2012 ruling in an earlier case should have precluded some of the current charges.In addition, the school said some material from an outside investigators report into academic irregularities on the Chapel Hill campus shouldnt be used because interviews werent performed to NCAA protocols.Indeed, its response rests almost entirely on these procedural issues and touches only minimally on the underlying substantive facts, the enforcement staffs reply states.After noting that many of the procedural issues had been addressed with the school previously, the documents states: The parties explored each at length throughout this case and each is without merit.North Carolina is scheduled to appear before an infractions committee panel in Indianapolis on Friday in what amounts to a pretrial hearing. The focus will be the procedural arguments and not the facts of whether violations occurred, including lack of institutional control.The case grew as an offshoot of a 2010 inquiry innto the football program.ddddddddddddIt centers on independent-study-style courses in the formerly named African and Afro-American Studies (AFAM) department requiring a research paper or two while offering GPA-boosting grades. Many were misidentified as lecture courses that didnt meet and featured significant athlete enrollments across numerous sports.A 2014 investigation by former U.S. Justice Department official Kenneth Wainstein estimated more than 3,100 students were affected between 1993 and 2011.Also Tuesday, UNC released correspondence between the school and NCAA ranging from summer 2014 through last week in the case. That included a letter from an attorney representing the school pointing out that the NCAA was aware of the key AFAM issues in 2011 during the earlier joint investigation, yet it didnt charge the school with additional violations before issuing its March 2012 sanctions against the football program.This was not a different case than what was investigated in 2010-11, decided in 2012, and revisited in 2013, the Oct. 19 letter from Richard J. Evrard states.None of the NCAA charges is tied solely to the existence of the problem AFAM courses. Rather, they are focused on failures in oversight.The timeline is likely to carry this case well into 2017, approaching seven years since NCAA investigators first arrived on campus in the original football case focused on improper benefits and academic misconduct. Fridays hearing comes exactly five years after UNCs hearing in the original football case. ' ' '
