BOSTON -- The hot, humid weather in Boston is raising concerns about the ice conditions at TD Garden before Game 6 of the Stanley Cup final. With temperatures forecasted to reach 33 degrees, Bruins and Chicago Blackhawks players expressed some concern about what it would be like when the puck is dropped Monday night. "Its pretty hot outside, and Im kind of sweating right now," Blackhawks forward Michael Frolik said. "The ice wasnt great, but I guess its same for both teams. Hopefully it get a little bit better tonight." June 24 ties for the latest Cup final game in NHL history, and a potential Game 7 would set a new record. "Everybody has been through it, and two teams are going through the same conditions," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "Both teams are going to tell you the same truth: keep the game simple and try and avoid those mistakes from over-handling pucks in those kind of ice conditions." Boston players had slightly better reviews of the ice after their morning skate, which happened before Chicagos. Centre Chris Kelly said if its as good at night -- when the temperature is expected to be 28 degrees -- as it was in the morning, it would not negatively affect play. "It was OK this morning," defenceman Torrey Krug said. "I thought it was obviously better early on and the more it gets chewed up it kind of deteriorates. For us were not worried about it. Both teams have to play on the ice. Its something you cant focus on. Youve just got to make sure you take care of the puck." Bruins centre David Krejci called the ice "kind of bumpy." It could get worse as the day goes on. "Its obviously going to be choppy, but its going to be choppy for both teams," Blackhawks forward Andrew Shaw said. "I think weve just got to (be smart with) pucks, try not to make those pretty plays in the middle of the ice." The NHL is in charge of maintaining ice conditions during the Cup final, a Bruins spokesman said. A league spokeswoman said ice specialist Dan Craig was not doing interviews during the series. Julien expects the heat in to rise as fans enter TD Garden on Monday night. Those who have attended morning skates at the arena all season observed that the building wasnt as cold as it usually is. Given how much the Blackhawks have excelled with their speed, a choppier surface might be advantageous to the Bruins. But Frolik and his teammates arent exactly going into foreign territory. "I think were kind of used to bad ice. Chicago is not great ice, too," he said. "Hopefully we get used to it very quick."Bogdan Bogdanovic Jersey . LUCIE, Fla. Justin James Kings Jersey .

Maybe they should give her a cape, too.It took a head-first dive, Superwoman style, for Miller to spring an Olympic upset Monday over Americas top female sprinter in the 400 meters and deny her a record fifth gold medal.Miller, a 22-year-old from the Bahamas, took an early lead, then held off Felixs charge along the straightaway. Neck and neck with two steps to go, Miller sprawled and tumbled across the line to win by .07 seconds.Now, instead of a coronation for Felix, its a celebration for Miller, who finished second to the American at last years world championships. Her dive will go down as one of the most dramatic images weve seen at these, or any, Olympics.Not that she planned it that way.I dont know what happened. My mind just went blank, Miller said. The only thing I was thinking [about] was the gold medal, and the next thing I know, I was on the ground.As Miller, who formerly competed for University of Georgia, lay on her back, gasping for breath and maybe stunned at what shed done, Felix sat on the ground stone-faced. Ten seconds passed. Then 20.The winners first clue came from the stands, not the scoreboard, which showed Miller winning in 49.44 seconds, ahead of Felix and bronze medalist Shericka Jackson of Jamaica.A familiar voice cut through the air.I heard my mom screaming, Miller said. When I heard her screaming, I was like, OK, I had to have won the race. Starting from Lane 7, Miller expanded the lag, instead of getting gobbled up the way most women do when Felix is on the track.Stride for stride they ran down the last 100 meters, until the last few steps. Felix, classically trained by Bobby Kersee, made a textbook lean into the finish line. Miller tried something else. Something no coach would ever teach.She gave everything she had, and her legs gave out at the line, said Millers coach, Lance Brauman, who also works with 100-meter silver medalist Tori Bowie of the U.S. Was not intentional.Then again, amazing thingss happen with a gold medal at stake.ddddddddddddWhile Miller jumped with her arms flailing forward, the rules say the win is determined by which athlete has any part of her torso cross the line first. The photo finish showed Millers shoulder barely beat Felix to the line.I dont think I ever quite had a year this tough, Felix said, as her eyes welled with tears.She was one of those rare athletes who had the cachet to get the Olympics to change the schedule. After winning the world championship at 400 meters last year, she put the 200-400 double in her sights for the Olympics. The schedule as it was originally written made it impossible; the 200 heats were scheduled for the same evening as the 400 final.Felix asked, and she received: The 200 heats were moved to the morning to give Americas best female sprinter a chance for the twofer.But she never got to the starting line in the 200 because an injury derailed her training and she came up short at Olympic trials.The 400 was her only chance for individual gold. Instead, she got silver to go with the pair she won in 2004 and 2008 in the 200.Even so, Felix became the most decorated U.S. female track athlete, with seven overall medals.But this was Millers night.The flag-bearer for her country in the opening ceremonies, Miller came into the games 5-for-5 in her races this season, including Diamond League meets in Shanghai, Eugene and London.Now shes 6-for-6.A wild finish to a crazy night.It began with a downpour that stopped action in all the events and put the DJ to work, playing Singing In The Rain, Umbrella and I Cant Stand the Rain, among other fare, while the fans waited out the delay.Those who stayed got their moneys worth.Miller ended up with a few scrapes and bruises.My body is kind of numb, she said. Its all just burning right now.The pain will go away. That gold is hers forever.The Associated Press contributed to this report. ' ' '
