1. After career success, Chenoweth is ready for love

NEW YORK (AP) — Broadway? Check. TV? Check. Films? Check. Music? Books? Check those, too.
Professionally speaking, Kristin Chenoweth is at the top of her game. This year alone, in one week, she sang for President Barack Obama, Queen Elizabeth II and Oprah Winfrey, she said in an interview last week with The Associated Press.
Recently added to that list was a performance at the Grand Ole Opry, which Chenoweth said tickled her Southern relatives.
"If I leave my mark on this world, hopefully people will say, 'Wow, she did a lot of different things,'" Chenoweth said.
But the one thing the 43-year-old Chenoweth says is missing from her list of accomplishments is finding Mr. Right and settling down.
"I want to be married. I feel finally ready for that," she said. "Possibly (becoming) a mom someday, even if it's to animals. My goals might be different than doing all these amazing career things. I think the next chapter will be focusing more on my personal life."
On that note, Chenoweth said she can relate to a song by Dolly Parton called "Sacrifice."
"She talks about how much she's given up. She's given up relationships, being home with her family, missing out with her husband, not having a child, all of that I can relate to," Chenoweth said. "So, maybe this second chapter in my life will be different in that way. But, I'll always sing. Whoever that man is, He's got to accept that music is like my arms. I can't live without (them)."
Chenoweth's latest music endeavor is a country music album called "Some Lessons Learned," released last week.
She moved to Nashville for a couple of months to record the album. Chenoweth, who won a Tony in 1999 for "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown," said there are similarities between country music and theater.
"They're both story and character driven," she said. "So of course I like both."
Up next for Chenoweth is the TV show "Good Christian Belles." Think: "Desperate Housewives" but in the Bible Belt.
The ABC show, which doesn't yet have a premiere date, is about five Christian women living in Texas.
Chenoweth, a Christian, said there's a misconception about Christianity: "that we don't have any problems, we really judge people harshly." But she said her character is actually the villain on the show.
"She's a very judgmental woman. She stirs it up and then prays for everybody," Chenoweth said. "So these are the characters I grew up with."
Chenoweth also made waves as April Rhodes, a boozy former glee club star on the hit Fox show "Glee." The role earned her two Emmy nominations. If she's invited back and her schedule allows, she said she'd like to reprise the role.
"(The character) is a very fun train wreck. Couldn't be more dissimilar to myself," she said. "And she likes her box of wine. Who can't relate to that?"

2.  Modano calls it a career

DALLAS -- One of the greatest U.S. hockey players is hanging up his skates for good.

Mike Modano announced Wednesday that he is retiring after 21 seasons in the NHL, a career that includes a Stanley Cup championship along with 561 goals and 1,374 points - both of which are records for U.S.-born players.

"It's just time," he said in a phone interview from Dallas, taking a break between playing 36 holes of golf. "I didn't get any calls after July 1 and I figured that was it."


Modano ended his career as a banged-up player who had lost a step and some zip off his shot during his one-season stint with his hometown Detroit Red Wings. A skate sliced a tendon in his right wrist and limited him to 40 games and career lows with four goals and 15 points with the Red Wings.

"He was on the verge of really producing for us before he got injured," former Red Wings teammate Chris Osgood said. "By the time he was able to play, it was too late. But back in the 1990s, few guys could skate and shoot like him. I can still see him flying down the ice, cutting down the lane and snapping off a shot toward the high glove."

In Modano's prime, he was among the best hockey players on the planet - shifty, speedy and with a tough-to-stop wrist shot. He also played in three Olympics, helping the United States win silver in 2002.

The Minnesota North Stars selected the native of Westland, Mich., No. 1 overall in 1988. Following the franchise's move to Dallas, he helped the Stars hoist the Stanley Cup in 1999.

Penguins 3, Red Wings 2: Evgeni Malkin had a goal and an assist in his first NHL game in more than seven months, and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Detroit Red Wings in preseason play.

Chris Kunitz and Matt Niskanen also scored for Pittsburgh (1-0). Niklas Kronwall and Jiri Hudler scored for the Red Wings (0-1), and Pavel Datsyuk had two assists.

Maple Leafs 4, Flyers 2: Prized free-agent goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov, making his Philadelphia debut, allowed stick-side goals to Juraj Mikus, Matt Frattin and Joe Colborne.

Ben Scrivens and Jonas Gustavsson combined for 21 saves and Colby Armstrong had two assists for Toronto.

Blues 4, Lightning 3: Adam Cracknell scored a tie-breaking goal with 2:20 to play and Chris Stewart had a goal and two assists.

Dwayne Roloson, Tampa Bay's No. 1 goalie, played the first 30 minutes and allowed one goal on nine shots.

Devils 2, Rangers 1: Patrik Elias scored 45 seconds into overtime to lift New Jersey.

Set up by Zach Parise's pass, Elias tapped the game-winner past Cam Talbot.

New York didn't manage a shot until 8:08 in the first period, but finally tied the score at 15:49 in the third.

Blue Jackets 4, Capitals 3: Alexandre Giroux scored on the power play with 2:24 left in overtime and Columbus survived a late Washington rally.

Jeff Halpren and Roman Hamrlik both had a goal and assist. Alex Ovechkin didn't play for the Capitals.

Sabres 2, Canadiens 1: Christian Ehrhoff had a goal and an assist to lead Buffalo to victory.

Ryan Miller stopped all 11 shots he faced in his first preseason start. Jhonas Enroth made 12 saves in relief for his second straight win.

Senators 2, Bruins 1: Mika Zibanejad scored 3:17 into overtime for as Ottawa beat Boston. Brian Lee also scored for Ottawa, and Nick Foligno had two assists.
