Washington Capitals left winger Alexander Semin is a prime example of a player who will attract attention leading up to the deadline, but with a cap hit of $6,700,000 this season and with only 28 points in 45 to show for it, some people's views may be hindered on the young talent's value. ]]> Wed, 01 Feb 2012 17:32:00 EST Sportsnet.ca Tue, 31 Jan 2012 15:29:00 EST Sportsnet.ca Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:23:00 EST Sportsnet.ca Novak Djokovic screams in celebration after clinching the 2012 Australian Open.

Hey, like Neil Young said, “it's better to burn out than to fade away.” Over the years, several athletic careers have followed the same short path, burning bright for a single special season, never to be duplicated. Take ex-Jay Eric Hinske, who set career highs in homers and RBIs as a rookie, but never matched his initial output. So as we say goodbye, here's a look at some more memorable one year wonders in sporting history.]]> Fri, 27 Jan 2012 14:51:00 EST Sportsnet.ca
IN: James Neal

The Pittsburgh Penguins star was likely left off of the initial All-Star list because of a broken foot that looked like it would sideline "the Real Deal" for the big weekend.
