YORK, England -- British sprinter Mark Cavendish pulled out of the Tour de France on Sunday with a serious shoulder injury likely to require surgery. Wholesale Adidas Cheap Shoes . Cavendish, with his arm in a sling underneath his sweatshirt, said outside the team bus before the start of the second stage that he was "absolutely devastated." The 29-year-old sprinter known as the "Manx Missile" had made the Tour his main goal this season but saw his hopes of winning his first yellow jersey disappear on Saturday when he hit the ground near the finish of the first stage in his mothers hometown of Harrogate. Cavendish, who took responsibility for the crash after taking Australian Simon Gerrans down with him, was diagnosed with a separated shoulder. "Normally, I bounce well when I crash," Cavendish said at York racecourse. "I assessed my body yesterday and for the first time in my career I knew something was wrong. I really had this little bit of optimism that I might be OK this morning but its just impossible." Cavendish will undergo a MRI in Manchester on Monday night that will determine whether he needs surgery on his shoulder. One of the most successful sprinters in the history of the race, Cavendish has won 25 Tour stages. The last time he retired from cyclings showpiece event was in 2008 when he left the race early to get ready for the Beijing Olympics. Cavendishs team doctor Helge Riepenhof said its likely the sprinter will need surgery that will sideline him for about six weeks, likely ruling him out for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow from July 23-Aug. 3. "Its a serious injury but he can recover well and it should not affect his future performances," Riepenhof said. "He is really sad because he wanted to show that he was ready to win a stage in his home country. He wanted to race but he cant." Cavendishs maiden ride in the Tour in 2007, when the race started in London, was also marred by crashes that led to his early exit. "It could be worse for me," the Omega Pharma Quick-Step rider said. "Ive got friends who have come back from Afghanistan with the armed forces. My friend Josh is a double amputee on his legs and missing his right arm. He just sent me a message joking saying Ive got a spare arm for you."

OTTAWA, Ont. -- The Florida Panthers may have come into Ottawa with new leaders, but they left with a familiar result. Kyle Turris had a goal and an assist in the Senators 3-2 win over Florida on Saturday, spoiling the debut of the Panthers new coaching staff. Kevin Dineen was let go as the head coach of the Panthers on Friday along with assistant coaches Gord Murphy and Craig Ramsay. Dineen was replaced with Peter Horachek, who was the coach of Floridas minor-league team in San Antonio. Original Florida captain Brian Skrudland -- who had been serving as the teams director of player development -- and former Panthers centre John Madden became the replacements for Murphy and Ramsay. The trio had barely 24 hours, and one practice in order to get the team ready for a pair of weekend games. "Its impossible and its not going to happen so what you can do is make little changes," Horachek said after the game. "What you hopefully are going to create is an attitude about work. When there are changes, people hesitate. You know, theyre not playing the way they need to, just reacting instead of thinking, and so you add a little bit each time and hopefully youre going to continue that and get them to a place where the work is fun and the work is solid and consistent." Mika Zibanejad and Clarke McArthur also scored for the Senators (7-6-4), who won for the third straight time. Lehner made 25 saves for the win. Nick Bjugstad and Marcel Goc replied for the Panthers (3-10-4), who have now lost eight straight, despite a 28-save performance from Tim Thomas in his first game back after missing six straight with a lower body injury. "Were starting to feel pretty good about ourselves," Senators coach Paul MacLean said. "I thought the way we played was pretty solid and Robin Lehner gave us another good game. We also kept the shots under 30 which certainly gives our goalies a chance to play well. "I thought our penalty killing, especially the five-on-three in the third period with Derek Grant, Marc Methot and Jared Cowen was outstanding and a big reason why we won the game." Trailing 3-1, the Panthers had a two-man advantage for a minute and 17 seconds in the third period and despite controlling the puck for nearly the entire time, they were unable to beat Lehner and put only three shots on net. The Senators took four minor penalties in the third period alone. "That five-on-three was huge," Senators defenceman Methot said. "Its very frusstrating as a player, especially towards the end when were taking all those penalties. Adidas Cheap Shoes. Its like were trying to give them an opportunity to get back in the game, but Lehner was huge for us back there." Less than three minutes after the second penalty ended, Goc beat Lehner with a wrist shot to pull the Panthers to within a goal. The Senators scored the only goal of the second period on the front end of a five-on-three power play. After passing the puck around the Panthers end, McArthur was finally able to put a one-timer past Thomas after taking a pass from defenceman Erik Karlsson. Two quick goals by the Senators put the Panthers on their heels early and presented the visitors with a deficit from which they were never able to recover. The first goal came off the stick of Turris, but it was the work of Bobby Ryan that made it possible. Ryan broke in alone on the Boston goal and was stopped by Thomas, but Ryan followed the puck to the corner and sent a pass to Turris at the edge of the faceoff circle. Turriss shot promptly beat Thomas with at 1:45. Just 19 seconds later, Zibanejad scored from behind the net as he banked a shot off Panthers defenceman Erik Gudbranson and in following a Florida turnover in their own end. "The game started out a little scrambly and I felt a little out of sorts at the beginning and kind of wasnt awake for that first goal," Thomas said. "I wasnt expecting a shot to come from that angle and I had to get back into game type of thinking rather than practice." The Panthers got on the board one minute later on a great effort from Bjugstad, when he got away from Karlsson and cut to the front of the net to jam the puck past Lehner. Karlssons defence partner, Cowen, also appeared to back off while in front of the net allowing Bjugstad extra room. The rest of the period featured multiple odd-man breaks for both sides and a lot of back-and-forth play, but no more goals.
