Romain Grosjean has expressed his amazement at Haass response to their first troubled F1 race weekend - and is tipping them to be back in points contention in Russia. The sports first American team in 30 years made a dream start to life in F1 with sixth and fifth place finishes in Australia and Bahrain respectively, but then suddenly struggled throughout the Chinese GP.Grosjean, who was involved in contact on the opening lap, finished 18th in Shanghai and team-mate Esteban Gutierrez fared little better in 14th place. However, with the teams disappointing performance having required deep analysis in the week that followed, Grosjean reckons they are now actually better placed to move forward.It was a very positive weekend for us [in retrospect] because we have done much more analysis after China than we did after Bahrain, he said on Thursday in Sochi.We could see real problems and understand why we were always on the back foot and understand why [the car] wasnt reacting to the next problems, and what we did right and wrong.Im quite amazed by the reaction back at the factory with everything which has been done and put in place for here. Im looking forward to getting back in the car and after a few laps [to see] were back where we want it to be. Then we can work from there. Natalie Pinkham is joined by former McLaren mechanic Marc Priestley and former Williams Senior Operations Engineer Dominic Harlow to look ahead to Russia The Frenchman admits there were quite a lot of problems for the team to resolve after returning to base, with weekend-long tyre pressure problems in Shanghai having been made worse by our set-up and the way we ran the car.It was as well the way we reacted to problems, Grosjean explained. With disrupted sessions it was hard to catch up and the way we tried to catch up, and the direction we went, was sometimes not good and actually making the problems worse.So, all of that together, its nice to now see it as a big picture and know that if it happens again we can ask the questions in a different way and react differently.Nonetheless, Grosjeans impressive 18-point haul from the opening two rounds mean Haas remain fifth in the Constructors Championship and the recently-turned 30-year-old is optimistic they can make an immediate return to top-10 contention this weekend.Back in the points is possible if we get everything back to how we want it and back to how it was initially in the season, he added.Watch the whole Russian GP weekend - LIVE ONLY on Sky Sports F1.

This is the final meeting of the season between these teams.? The Capitals were 5-4 winners in a shootout Oct.Winnipeg Jets 5 Calgary Flames 3 (Jets 37-35-10, Road 19-18-4) – It was a short-staffed Jets team that was playing on back to back nights that found a way to win the game and end the season with back to back wins. It was the first time the Jets have won back to back games since wins over Phoenix and Nashville coming out of the Olympic break. Starting the game without 10 regulars, the Jets lost Jacob Trouba in the first period and Jim Slater in the second period due to injury. Trouba was hit in the throat by a deflected puck, while Slater suffered a broken finger. Michael Hutchinson, in just his third NHL game, was again very good, especially in the third stopping all 18 shots he faced. The Jets took a 2-0 lead after one period on goals by Michael Frolik (15th) from Trouba and Mark Stuart at 7:23, and Evander Kane (19th) from Bryan Little and Adam Pardy. Kane finishes the season with goals in back to back games, the goal being his 200th NHL point. Shots in the first were 14-8 for the Jets. The Flames got on the board early in the second on a goal from Jiri Hudler, but Carl Klingberg, with his first NHL goal, restored the two goal lead for Winnipeg. Patrice Cormier and Zach Redmond drew assists on the Klingberg goal. The Jets then ran into penalty trouble and for the first time in 10 occasions this season gave up a goal while down two men as Sean Monahan scored his 22nd of the season, and 24 seconds later the game was tied on Chris Russells seventh of the year, also a power play goal. Shots in the second were 12-5 for Calgary as the tough skate Wednesday and playing the night before seemed to be catching up to tthe Jets.dddddddddddd The Flames needed something out of this game to finish above .500 at home, and with aggressive fore-checking took advantage of a tired Jets team. But Hutchinson shut the door, his best save off Kenny Agostino, a glove save on a one on one situation. Paul Postma with his first of the season put the Jets back in front. Cormier, with his first career two-point game, and Anthony Peluso drew assists. The Flames pulled goaltender Karri Ramo while on a late power play, but Blake Wheeler, with his 28th, into an empty net ended it. Shots in the third were 18-8 Calgary and 38-27 for the Flames over the game. Stuart led the Jets in ice time at 24:25, Slater won 11 of 12 face-offs before leaving the game and Cormier won nine of 12. Hutchison stopped 83 of 88 shots in his three games for a save percentage of .943 and record of 2-1. Coach Paul Maurice was very proud of his squad. “With three minutes left in the second, we had nothing left. Then we found a way to win. Our goalie made some great saves. Losing Trouba and Slater did not help.” And on his team, “they played for each other. They care about each other. There is a lot of the right kind of people in the room. What excites me about this team is the room.” Exit meetings with players will be held this weekend and into next week, with all the call-ups on their way back to St. Johns, while others will be asked to compete for their country at the World Championship in Belarus in May. GM Kevin Cheveldayoff will address the media Wednesday. More on this past season, the off-season, and next season after that. ' ' '
