DALLAS -- Rick Nash and Henrik Lundqvist returned to the New York Rangers lineup and were instrumental in their 2-0 shutout of the Dallas Stars on Thursday night.Nash, who had missed four games with a groin injury, scored an unassisted goal with his team short-handed to snap a scoreless tie in the third period.Lundqvist, who hadnt started since a 4-2 loss to the Islanders on Dec. 6, left briefly after getting bowled over behind the net and combined with Antti Raanta for the shutout. Raanta had won three of the previous four games.I went out there with a lot of desperation, said Lundqvist, who has won at least 30 games in 10 of his 11 seasons. I felt like it was an important game for me to just feel good. My game hasnt changed over a week, but my mindset has changed.It is a new experience for me, he added.Nash broke up a pass by Jamie Benn near the Rangers blue line, skated down the ice and put a snap shot past Dallas goalie Antti Niemi at 7:08.Nash said he benefited from watching teammate Chris Kreiders unsuccessful breakaway in the second period.After watching Chris try it on his breakaway, I thought (Niemi) was kind of cheating the deke, and thought I could kind of catch him off guard, Nash said.Mats Zuccarello added an empty-net goal.Lundqvist actually returned twice on Thursday. Raanta replaced him for 5:31 of the first period after Dallas Cody Eakin plowed into Lundqvist behind the net, knocking off his mask as the goalie played the puck along the end boards.Eakin received a major penalty for charging and a game misconduct.The league better do something about that hit, Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. Its everything that you want to take away from the game. A hit to the head, forward motion and its a goaltender on top.Stars coach Lindy Ruff defended Eakin.I understand the call. As a penalty killer, hes trying to gain speed so he can get back. I know it doesnt look that way, but there was no intent on his part, Ruff said.Lundqvist said he didnt see Eakin coming at him before he was knocked to the ice. He stayed down for a bit and left the game for 5 1/2 minutes.(The trainer) came out and told me, `You have to leave right away. Did a quick test and tried to rush to come back out there, because I really wanted to play.Lundqvist finished with all 27 saves for New York, including 18 in the second period.Niemi made 28 saves for Dallas.The Rangers have won four of five. The Stars missed a chance to match their longest winning streak this season at two games.Niemi made five saves during a first-period power play that lasted 6:09. His best stop was a sprawling save on a snap shot by Brandon Pirri at 10:32.The first 51 seconds of that power play were 5-on-3 after Eakins penalties. Dallas has escaped three 5-on-3s without a goal in the last two games, though Anaheim scored 5-on-4 just 5 seconds after the first penalty expired Tuesday night.Dallas entered Thursday ranked 28th in the NHL on the penalty kill.About 5 minutes into the second period, Kreider had a breakaway but sent a backhand wide right. The Stars Jason Spezza hit the right post on a power play 6 minutes later.During Dallas second power play of the period, Lundqvist stopped wrist shots by Devin Shore and Esa Lindell.The Stars were 0 for 5 on the power play.Game notesNash scored the 15th short-handed goal of his career and first since Feb. 2, 2015, vs. Florida. ...

Among his first tasks was helping decide President Gianni Infantinos $1.5 million salary and right to future bonuses.To protect against conflicts of interest, and uphold the independence of audit and ethics committee leaders, FIFA rules state they are not permitted to have had an official function in a FIFA member federation during the four years before being selected.However, Vesels recent work with a Slovenian federation committee was reported Thursday by a soccer magazine in Norway. The magazine, Josimar, reported that Vesel said his advisory work was declared to FIFAs vetting panel.The Slovenia federation is led by Aleksander Ceferin, elected last week as UEFA president and a FIFA vice president, who plays with Vesel on a soccer team in Ljubljana.On Friday, FIFA said the vetting process by its review panel which clears candidates for independent jobs, elections or committee seats can now assess on a case-by-case basis if they can take office.The text of these rules is, in some respects, open-ended and vague, requiring its clarification on a case-by-case development of criteria aimed at making their application as obbjective and certain as possible, FIFA said in a briefing document published Friday.ddddddddddddWhile also clearing Vesel for duty, the three-member FIFA review panel has vetted dozens of candidates for seats on FIFAs revamped committees plus continental elections, including joining the Infantino-chaired FIFA Council.However, Vesels appointment has been the highest-profile test of checks and balances FIFA put in place to clean up its operations while cooperating with investigations by American and Swiss federal prosecutors which removed Blatter from office.FIFA declined to comment Friday on details of the review panels assessment of Vesels eligibility.In a statement provided to The Associated Press, FIFA did suggest the panel could take into account if a candidates previous soccer positions were purely advisory and did not involve any remuneration.The Vesel case has cast further doubt on FIFAs commitment to letting officials in key oversight roles work independently.He replaced Domenico Scala, who resigned in May in protest after FIFAs annual meeting in Mexico City where Infantinos council was given hire and fire power over audit and ethics committee leaders. Scala and Infantino also clashed over the presidential salary.FIFAs latest guidance on how soccer insiders could be appointed to independent positions was sent to its 211 federations on Friday. It is set to announce lineups for its new committee structure next month, and acknowledged some members had perceived conflicts of interest.They have been asked to formally confirm that he or she will recuse themselves from future debates and decisions where conflicts could arise, FIFA said.
