“She said she was excited to have me back, and just wanted me to focus on feeling good within the team, getting comfortable with playing with new people and just enjoy being back in (with the team),” Girma said about her first conversation with Hayes upon her return. “I think the leadership and other things will come as we’re playing in sessions and in games.”

This time, it ended their season in another Eastern Conference final — the stage proving to be a roadblock in their multiyear Stanley Cup push.to the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night in Game 5, sending the Panthers back to the sport’s final stage for the third straight year while ending Carolina’s latest lengthy playoff grind short of the ultimate goal.

And it ended in a similar fashion to the previous year: with Carolina losing the first three games of a series, spending multiple games trying to dig out of that massive hole and then losing a two-goal lead at home in the game that ultimately ended their season.“I think essentially we lost in the first few games,” Carolina captain Jordan Staal said. “You can’t start a series like that and expect a better outcome.”A year ago, it was an 0-3 series deficit to the Presidents’ Trophy-winning New York Rangers in the second round. The Hurricanes regrouped to win two elimination games and carried a 3-1 lead into the third period of a Game 6 at home, only to see the Rangers surge back behind Chris Kreider’s hat trick in the final 20 minutes

This time, it was an 0-3 series deficit to the the reigning Stanley Cup champion, a tested and deep team unafraid to play and surpass Carolina’s aggressive-forechecking approach. And it ended with a matching final score.“We knew it was going to be a big task to try to beat them,” said Carolina’s Sebastian Aho, who had two first-period goals Wednesday that put the Hurricanes ahead. “We truly believe we have what it takes, but obviously we fell short yet again.”

By the final horn, Carolina’s lamentations went back to losing the first two games at home,

in which the Panthers were shockingly dominant and the Hurricanes’ normally rowdy fans were left to frustratedly chant “Shoot the puck! Shoot the puck!”Among those skipped was Johann Strauss II, whose “Blue Danube” graced Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 sci-fi opus “2001: A Space Odyssey.”

The tourist board in Vienna, where Strauss was born on Oct. 25, 1825, said it aims to correct this “cosmic mistake” by sending the “the most famous of all waltzes” to its destined home among the stars.ESA’s big radio antenna in Spain, part of the space agency’s deep-space network, will do the honors. The dish will be pointed in the direction of Voyager 1 so the “Blue Danube” heads that way.

“Music connects us all through time and space in a very particular way,” ESA’s director general Josef Aschbacher said in a statement. “The European Space Agency is pleased to share the stage with Johann Strauss II and open the imaginations of future space scientists and explorers who may one day journey to the anthem of space.”The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Science and Educational Media Group and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
