Veteran forward Ray Whitney has announced his retirement after 22 NHL seasons. Whitney, 42, played 1,330 career regular season games since breaking into the league with the San Jose Sharks during the 1991-92 season, tallying 385 goals and 1,064 points. For the past 23 years, I have had the privilege of earning my living playing hockey in the National Hockey League, Whitney said in a statement released by his agency, CAA Sports. Along the way, I have made countless memories and friendships, which I will always cherish. Every city I played in, the fans welcomed my family and me with open arms, and I couldnt be more thankful for that. Whitney played with the Edmonton Oilers, Florida Panthers, Columbus Blue Jackets, Detroit Red Wings, Carolina Hurricanes, Phoenix Coyotes and Dallas Stars. He played in 108 career playoff games, including 24 during the 2005-06 season when he helped lead the Hurricanes to their first-ever Stanley Cup. Terrific career, Penguins general manager Jim Rutherford told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com. He was a key player on our Cup team in Carolina from his leadership to keeping the guys loose to scoring big goals for us. He was just a lot of fun to be around. Cesc Fabregas Chelsea Jersey .A.

LONDON -- Tim Sherwoods first game in full charge of Tottenham ended in disappointment as Emmanuel Adebayors error gifted West Bromwich a 1-1 draw in the English Premier League on Thursday. Within two minutes of Christian Eriksen putting Tottenham ahead from a free kick, Adebayor miscued Morgan Amalfitanos cross and Jonas Olsson tapped in easily from close range to equalize in the 38th minute. The draw saw Tottenham drop to eighth place, while West Brom was 15th. "We should have played better and we are capable of playing better," Sherwood said. "I thought we could be a bit more adventurous around the penalty box and show a little more guile." Sherwood was hired on an 18-month contract to replace Andre Villas-Boas on Monday after two games in temporary charge, including a 3-2 victory at Southampton in the league last weekend. "Its a gamble because Ive never done it before," the 44-year-old Sherwood said. "Butt there are a lot of good managers who had never done it before and become a success.dddddddddddd I was never a professional footballer until I stepped on to the field." The fact that he only has a contract until the end of next season has prompted suggestions that Sherwood is keeping the seat warm for someone with more experience. "I regard (that) as an insult, but it is only an insult if I go and win all the games," Sherwood said. "What can we do? If we win all the games and someone else comes in and keeps it and brings someone else in after Ive won the league then Im going to Real Madrid," he added with a smile. West Brom is still searching for a replacement for Steve Clarke, who was fired last month. Keith Downing is in temporary charge. "I hope (an appointment) is close for the players sake," said Downing, who will stay in London with his players ahead of Saturdays game against West Ham. ' ' '
