MONACO -- The rivalry between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton for the Formula One title is turning into a full-blown scrap -- both on and off the track. Isaiah Wynn Stitched Jersey . Rosberg won the Monaco Grand Prix from pole position on Sunday to take the championship lead back from Hamilton, who won the previous four races but was left infuriated by Rosbergs sudden and late accident the day before in qualifying. The win was a fifth straight 1-2 finish for Mercedes, which has swept all six races this season, but thats the only type of harmony in the team. Tension is building, with Hamilton appearing unhappy before, during and after the race. "Its a fierce battle between me and Nico and will continue that way," he said. "Im going to keep my head up and keep pushing." Rosberg drew his teammates ire in qualifying when his late error led to a yellow flag and ended Hamiltons chances of beating his time with a final flying lap. Rosberg denied that he caused the incident intentionally and he was cleared of any wrongdoing by race stewards. He went on to clinch his second victory of the season and fifth of his career, repeating his maiden GP win from pole here in Monaco last year. He leads Hamilton by four points in the drivers standings, 122-118. Ferraris Fernando Alonso, who was fourth, is already 57 points behind Hamilton. "Its a special win, definitely, because Lewis has had the momentum with results," Rosberg said. He finished 9.2 seconds ahead of Hamilton, who was 0.4 faster than Daniel Ricciardos Red Bull. Four-time defending champion Sebastian Vettels frustrating season with Red Bull continued as he abandoned the race on lap eight with a power unit failure. Hamilton and Rosberg raced each other in their junior karting days, but they did not appear to shake hands after the race, and Hamilton looked visibly tense in the post-match race conference as he sat next to Rosberg. He revealed that he and Rosberg had not even been in the post-qualifying debriefing together on Saturday. "Nico did his big debrief before I got there, which is not what we normally do," Hamilton said. "Fortunately the engineers wrote down what Nico said." Even at the drivers pre-race parade they were at opposite ends of the circuit, and now they have six months left together until the end of the season, starting with the Canadian GP in two weeks time. Hamilton said after the race that he "drove fairly all weekend," which sounded like a veiled swipe at Rosberg. During the race, a tense Hamilton snapped back at his team when told that Ricciardo was closing on him. "I dont care about Ricciardo, whats the gap to Nico?" Hamilton said. Hamilton would certainly have attacked more on another track. But overtaking on Monacos tight and narrow 78-lap circuit -- which has the slowest average speed -- is so tough that 10 of the past 11 winners came from pole. The exception was Hamilton in 2008, the year he won the title. Hamilton had sparked the escalation in the rivalry with Rosberg when he questioned his teammates hunger on Thursday as he compared their different childhoods. Rosberg is the son of former F1 driver Keke Rosberg. "I come from a not-great place in Stevenage and lived on a couch in my dads apartment, and Nico grew up in Monaco with jets and hotels and boats," Hamilton said on Thursday. "If I were to come here believing that Nico is hungrier than me then I might as well go home." Later, Hamilton explained what hed meant. "I said what gives me the hunger is where I grew up, in comparison to where Nico grew up," he said. "I was striving to come to live (in Monaco). I used to travel around with Nico on his dads plane, I used to go on his boat, (in) his house. That gave me the desire to want that." The race itself was also eventful as eight drivers failed to finish. The safety car came out on lap one after Sergio Perez was bumped off the track by his former teammate Jenson Buttons McLaren at the Mirabeau turn. The safety car came out again on lap 26 when German driver Adrian Sutils Sauber went into the barriers on the run down to the chicane. Mercedes took the opportunity to pit both their cars, and Hamilton seemed unhappy with the timing. "We should have pitted on that lap (before)," he said. "But I knew you wouldnt call me in, guys."

Bozak and Clarkson suffered the injuries in pre-training camp workouts, according to Carlyle, who said they made "small amounts of improvement" from Friday to Saturday. After the players were deemed less than 100 per cent by doctors after Thursdays medical testing, the Leafs held them out of on-ice testing and are being cautious. Duke Dawson Stitched Jersey . At this point, even he isnt sure when it is going to stop. The right-hander dropped his fourth straight decision in Los Angeles 6-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday night, leaving his status very much in doubt as the Dodgers prepare for the stretch drive. http://www.officialpatriotsnflauthenticshop.com/jawhaun-bentley-stitched-jersey/ . Bjoergen pulled away from Swedens Charlotte Kalla on the final straight to win in 38 minutes, 33.6 seconds and defend her title from the 2010 Vancouver Games. Kalla was 1.8 seconds back. Heidi Weng of Norway took bronze.VANCOUVER – Sure, it’s early. But it’s also seven wins in 10 tries for the Vancouver Canucks. And it’s impossible to argue with .700 hockey at any point in a National Hockey League season. Consider, too, the fact the Canucks ushered in a new coaching staff with new systems and a handful of new faces throughout the line-up and the team’s quick bolt from the starting gate has come as a pleasant surprise. While there are still areas to work on – letting a 2-0 third period get away before winning in overtime on Thursday against Montreal is proof of that – the Canucks have already salted away 14 of a possible 20 points in the standings that could prove valuable at season’s end. And they’ve done it with inspired play from their best players, spread scoring from the foot soldiers, a vibrant power play, a return to form from their top defensive pair and terrific goaltending. It’s tough to imagine those factors will be present in every 10 game stretch over the course of the marathon regular season, but the first 10 games have certainly provided a foundation for the Canucks to build on. “It’s still early -- we could have been five and five and you would have asked about a bad start and I would have said it’s still early,” captain Henrik Sedin said moments after setting up brother Daniel for the overtime winner against the Canadiens. “But I like the way we play. I like the way we battle for each other. There’s an overall feeling in this room that guys really want to play for each other and that’s a really good feeling. It’s not going to be pretty every night, but it’s fun to watch right now.” Henrik and Daniel Sedin are leading the way with 12 points apiece through the first 10 games and new linemate Radim Vrbata has added 11 of his own. The top line carried the Canucks through the first week of the season, but since then, the club has received timely contributions from the likes of Nick Bonino, Jannik Hansen, Linden Vey and for the second straight game Brad Richardson. Willie Desjardin’s coaching staff has implemented a power play that has converted on nine of 38 chances (23.7%) and produced at least one goal in seven of the team’s first 10 games. Last year, the Canucks didn’t score their ninth power play goal of the season until the third week of November. In their own zone, Vancouver has seen a vast improvement in the play of Alex Edler. Sony Michel Stitched Jersey. While still prone to the odd miscue, Edler’s mistakes aren’t winding up in the team’s net. In fact, he and partner Chris Tanev haven’t been on the ice for any of the last 10 goals the Canucks have surrendered, and on the season, Edler – who struggled so mightily a year ago – has been on the ice for just eight of the 29 goals the team has allowed so far this season. Edler and the rest of the Canucks have been bailed out on several occasions already by Ryan Miller who has been sensational in the early going. A forgettable night in Dallas is his only loss, and with the victory over Montreal, Miller joined the Habs Carey Price as the first goalies in the league to seven victories. Millers solid positioning within the crease has particularly been noticeable in the early going, as hes made his seven wins look fairly easy with an economy of motion that’s allowed him to stay calm. After registering his 300th NHL win on Tuesday against Carolina, Miller pushed his early season home ice record to 4-0 thanks to Thursday nights victory against the Canadiens. “We’ve won some games at home now and we’ve had a few hard battles,” Miller said. “If you went back and said you’d be in this position after ten games, I’d say that’s a good place to be. But this league is really, really tough as you install in travel and teams start to break your systems down, you have to keep improving, keep building you game as the season goes. There are a lot of things that go into it. A good start helps, but you have to keep improving every week and keep climbing and come together as a group. That’s how I’d like to see things go.” Miller and his teammates are well aware things will only get tougher from here. There is no resting on their laurels for the Canucks, who know there are no prizes handed out for solid starts or strong Octobers. Over the next month, the club will get its first look of the new season versus Nashville, San Jose, Anaheim, Los Angeles and Chicago – the types of teams Vancouver will see in the playoffs if they can parlay the quick start into a post-season berth. It’s only 10 games, but given the many questions swirling prior to their season, with seven wins, the Canucks have come through the first 10 games of their schedule as one of the early surprises in the NHL.
