VANCOUVER - David Backes went to Sochi hoping to bring back some stories. Instead, he brought back a couple of stray puppies. The St. Louis Blues captain, who played for the U.S. in the 2014 Winter Olympics, and his wife Kelly rescued the dogs from the streets of the Russian city with members of the Canadian teams entourage. Now in quarantine in St. Louis, the dogs will eventually be given to good homes. "Were just trying to widen our scope to help animals across the (U.S.) and across the world, and doing what we can," Backes said Tuesday. Backes said he and his wife did not originally intend to bring any animals back. They were hoping to create awareness about shelters that have been set up in Sochi to help hundreds of stray dogs that have received international media coverage. "She doesnt take no very lightly," he said. "So when she saw those two pups and a few more, she said weve gotta do something to get these out of here and tell their story and broaden the awareness of some of the mistreatment of animals - and just the difference in (how) they treat their companion animals and we treat ours." The Backes, who have four rescue dogs and two rescue cats in their home set up their own foundation, Athletes for Animals, last November, received helped from Canadian winger Jeff Carters girlfriend Megan Keffer and defenceman Drew Doughtys girlfriend Nicole Arruda and others. The three-to-four-month-old pups, named Sochi Junior and Sochi Jake, were brought back to the U.S. on an Air Atlas charter to Newark and another flight to St. Louis. Cody Ford Jersey .

Detroits powerful offence made that unnecessary. Scherzer allowed two hits and struck out seven, and the Tigers backed their star right-hander with three early homers in an 8-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday night.Hot Springs, AR (SportsNetwork.com) - Champion filly Take Charge Brandi came out of Saturdays head victory in the $100,000 Martha Washington Stakes at Oaklawn Park in fine shape with the Kentucky Oaks still her main objective. The fillys owner Willis Horton speculated following the win that she might run in the Arkansas Derby and Kentucky Derby. Hes having fun with it, I think, trainer D. Wayne Lukas said of Hortons post-race reference to running Take Charge Brandi in the Arkansas Derby and Kentucky Derby. The plan is still the Honeybee (March 7), Fantasy (April 4) and Oaks (May 1). Take Charge Brandi, ridden for the first time by Jon Court, was the 2-5 favorite in the Martha Washington and held off Sarah Sis to win the mile race to begin her 3-year-old campaign. Shes very workmanlike, Lukas said. She knows how to win races. Shes cruising along, very relaxed, and then that horse comess to her and she surges back and wins.dddddddddddd At Los Alamitos, two or three of them did that to her, and she surged every time they came. Jon, I think, got a little bit complacent and relaxed there, too. We told him (Court) to just cruise around there, get the money and lets go for the next one. Take Charge Brandi broke her maiden in her debut at Churchill Downs last June. She was second at Saratoga in the Schuylerville and fifth in the Adirondack Stakes. The filly followed with a fifth in the Pocahontas at Churchill and was eighth in Keenelands Alcibiades. She won the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies at Santa Anita as a 61-1 longshot. The Eclipse Award winner won the Starlet Stakes at Los Alamitos on Dec. 13 to finish her 2014 season. That victory came just three weeks after capturing the Delta Downs Princess Stakes on Nov. 22. The filly has won five of nine starts for $1,680,126.
