CHICAGO -- On the final day of the League of Legends World Championship quarterfinals, Europes H2K Gaming put on a clinic, destroying Albus Nox Luna. Three games, each ending in under 35 minutes, secured H2K Gaming their ticket to New Yorks Madison Square Garden.For coach Neil Pr0lly Hammad, who has worked with the team since they qualified for the League Championship Series in Dec. 2014, he isnt satisfied yet, as H2K will move on to face Samsung Galaxy in the semifinals.Its kind of funny, he explained. I guess thats how it feels, it feels really funny. At this point, other than the small amount of humor it is that we got this far, its just now, theres still no time to rest. Right now, I know if I give myself the satisfaction of anything, its going to, in turn, make me worse at my job. Im trying not to think of anything that will make me happy in a way. Its kind of sad, but I kind of cant relax.Pr0lly says that if he lets himself be satisfied with H2K Gamings progress at the World Championship, he might become complacent and lose focus. He says he cant afford that to happen as they face their toughest opponent yet.Right now, Im not satisfied at all and I expect to perform well against Samsung Galaxy, he said.As they move on, Pr0lly is happy that the current in-game patch of League of Legends, 6.18, has been played throughout the entirety of the tournament. He believes that it gives both teams a more even playing field, where neither will surprise the other.I think [Samsung] is, I wouldnt say predictable, but their meta, theyve kind of fleshed out their meta a bit and we have too, I guess, he explained. What they play isnt going to be a surprise and thats really important for pick and ban - that there are no surprises. Each player knows their matchups and stuff like that. I think itll be good for us, because we have really strong laners and theyll have the exact same meta they had last week.He says his team needs to clean up their mid-to-late performance in-game, which looked shaky in their third game versus Albus Nox Luna. Despite being up by several thousand gold, the team was unable to close the game out quickly. Pr0lly hopes to improve that before their showdown in New York.If you give that gold lead to a Korean team, theyll close it really quickly, he said. Thats kind of the concern about Samsung Galaxy is that if they do get a lead, itll be hard to get it back. And if we have a lead, theyre going to play really hard for us to close the game. I think if were able to shore up that, I think our early game will still beat theirs unless we throw or something weird early. I think its more of if we can fix our last mid-to-late game, the last five percent of the game. If we can fix that, we can actually have an upset against a Korean team, even though I know everyone says that. I think we can because we have a really good early game.But the H2K that showed up in Chicago wasnt one that fans and spectators were familiar with. Top laner Andrei Odoamne Pascu played carry champion Jayce each game against Albus Nox, which is very different from his teams normal playstyle. Usually, H2K focuses its resources towards its bottom lane, specifically star AD carry Konstantinos FORG1VEN Tzortziou. On Sunday, that changed.Odoamne has always been a really strong carry player, but he got in such a bad habit of not requiring anything, Pr0lly said. So when the meta started changing, I knew wed have a lot of trouble. Weve actually been working on Odo asking for resources. ... This is something weve actually worked on almost all split and it just hasnt been the meta where we could just pick carry tops. It was pretty tank-heavy still this split. Its kind of a thing weve always been working on and even now, hes kind of exploring and were getting to used that strategy.Making it to the semifinals of the tournament is unexpected for H2K. Many were convinced that their European peer, G2 Esports, who took first in the European League Championship Series, wouldve been more successful during the World Championship. But thats not the case as H2K stood tall while its peers, G2 and Splyce, failed to make it out of groups.Im happy that we represent Europe, but Im really sad [G2 and Splyce] werent able to come with us because I think they were able to stay on the same trajectory we were during that Korean bootcamp, I think they wouldve been able to actually show up really well in these games, because they have a lot of different strengths than us, but overall their team play is actually really good, Pr0lly explained. I was kind of sad they played the way they did because I had more expectations for them; Im from Europe so I see them all split and I know they couldve performed better, so it was more painful than anything.Coming into the semifinals match, H2K will meet Samsung Galaxy, who have also defied the odds by making it this far, but have looked stellar in a lot of their play. Samsung, the third seed from South Korea, topped the group over Royal Never Give Up and Team SoloMid, before destroying Cloud9 in the quarterfinals. Pr0lly knows his teams shot is limited, but hes confident if everything goes in their favor, H2K has a shot at victory.Were 100 percent underdogs. It wont be like 60-40, he said. But it is five games and I think with our strong early game, we definitely have a good chance to throw them off. I think its very reasonable to believe we can beat them. I wouldnt put [it] on us, because Im not allowed to, but its still logically in their favor.

Capitals head coach Adam Oates said Ovechkin was injured in the first period against the Vancouver Canucks on Monday and clarified it was not a head injury.EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- With Eli Manning running the show and Victor Cruz and Hakeem Nicks on the outside, the New York Giants passing game is potent. Without Ahmad Bradshaw, the running game has become a big question mark. The Giants took a major gamble after last season, releasing the injury-plagued Bradshaw and handing the halfback job to David Wilson and Andre Brown. New Yorks 2012 first-round draft pick, Wilson showed a burst of speed out of the backfield last season. He gained 358 yards on 71 carries and scored four touchdowns. Brown, a journeyman, had his best season, rushing for 385 yards. He scored eight touchdowns on 73 carries before breaking his right leg in late November. "Obviously, Andre has been here a number of years and knows the system well and played well last year before he got injured," Manning said Monday before practice. "David is a different style of back than weve ever really had here at the Giants over the years. A lot of speed and explosiveness. Weve got to see whats the best way to use him. "It will be interesting to see how things change up a little bit." Wilson, who played at Virginia Tech, is exciting. He is the kind of back who can get through a hole and score for a touchdown in seconds. Bradshaw, who led the team in rushing the past three seasons, was more of a power back. He gained 1,015 yards last season with his longest run being 37 yards. Brown is more in the Bradshaw mould, and has shown tremendous effectiveness near the goal line. It would not be surprising for the Giants to play both. In recent years, the team has shared the running back responsibility with a couple of backs. For now, Wilson is sharing carries with Brown in training camp but it would seem that he is destined to be the starter. "Its a great opportunity and Im stepping in, trying to do all of the right things that I need to do to help this team to win," Wilson said. "I know what I have to do this training camp in order to get the maximum playing time. Were working together. We bring two different things and a lot of the same things. When were out there on the field, were just trying to make each other better, so when we go out there on game day, the defencee doesnt have to worry about just one of us.dddddddddddd" Wilson, however, needs to prove himself to Tom Coughlin. The veteran coach demands that his running backs protect the ball and pick up blitzes. Wilson fumbled in his first game against Dallas last season and had trouble blocking for Manning, as well. With a year under his belt, Wilson believes he will improve. He has the cockiness to think he can gain 1,000 yards. "Well see. Weve got 16 games," he said. "I think a 1,000 yards is definitely the mark for every running back in the league. I set high goals for myself, not something that is easy to reach." Fully recovered from his broken leg, Brown is optimistic about the run game, which averaged 116.4 yards last season. "The sky is the limit. It all starts with our attention to detail and our willingness to be a proven entity in this league," Brown said. "As far as we work, hard work pays off. As long as we continue out here with a humble mindset and go out there and be a spark to this team, the sky is the limit. Youre only going to get out what you put into it and I feel like weve put a lot of work, extra film study, reading defences, helping each other out. "We know what were capable of." So does All-Pro guard Chris Snee. "We made tremendous strides since 2011 into last year," he said, "and if we continue to do that well get back into being a top 10, top five rushing team." ------ NOTES: The defence picked off five passes in practice. Safety Tyler Sash had one, and provided momentary comic relief in turning to run the wrong way after his catch. ... Rookie QB Ryan Nassib and veteran Curtis Painter threw two picks apiece, and David Carr had the other. ... LB Jacquian Williams had two tipped passes. ... Second-year receiver Rueben Randle had an excellent afternoon, getting more reps with the first team because Hakeem Nicks was again limited by a groin injury ... OL coach Pat Flaherty said David Diehl is his right tackle with first-round pick Justin Pugh working with the second team. ... Giants GM Jerry Reese made a feeble attempt to catch an overthrown pass by Carr on the sideline. He showed little vertical prowess. ' ' '
