They may be thousands of kilometres from their native Zurich, but Tim Wieser and Kay Schweri feel a little closer to home when the Sherbrooke Phoenix faithful wave the flag of Switzerland at Palais des Sports.Its just an amazing feeling to see that weve won over some Canadian fans here, said Wieser, who, when combined with Schweri, makes up an unstoppable Swiss dynamic duo thats been turning heads in the QMJHL this season. We are really proud to see them waving the Switzerland flag.Wieser, in his second year with the Phoenix, is tearing through opposing goaltenders like wet paper towel. The 19-year-old currently leads all QMJHL and CHL scorers with 22 goals through 20 regular-season games. His credits his sophomore success — which carries with it an eye-popping shooting percentage of 29.7 — to an off-season focused on improving his shot.But his improved production also owes thanks to Schweri, his rookie linemate, fellow countryman and longtime friend, whos assisted on more than half of Wiesers goals and himself leads all Quebec League players with 30 helpers.In this potent one-two punch, Schweri is the rigger and Wieser is trigger.Hes a very good passer, thats the best thing about him, is how Wieser describes Schweri, a 17-year-old who was skating in the Elite Jr. A Swiss League a year ago.Hes a scorer, a real scorer, is Schweris assessment of the Wieser.Mixed with top end Phoenix talent that includes projected 2015 NHL first-rounder Jeremy Roy and Montreal Canadiens draft pick Daniel Audette, the Swiss wingers have been the difference that has thrust Sherbrooke from a middling team to the top of the West Division.Heading into Fridays contest against Blainville-Boisbriand, Wieser had scored in all but six games this season, and potted four in his last outing against Rouyn-Noranda last week. Scherwi, who was tied for third in league scoring with 36 points (10 goals, 26 assists) heading into weekend play, had been held off the score sheet only four times.With their continued success, youd never guess that both players got out to rocky starts in their respective major junior careers as they tried to adjust to life on this side of the Atlantic.Wieser had a tough time settling in when he first arrived in Sherbrooke for training camp last season, after the Phoenix took him in the second round of the 2013 CHL import draft.Hes a family guy, so being away from home, largely by himself, and in an English and French-speaking environment (both Wiser and Schweri s mother tongue is German) left him feeling isolated.He came here and he didnt really speak any English or French, said Sherbrooke general manager Patrick Charbonneau. Through 15 games, he maybe had five points.But, Charbonneau continued, Wieser resolved to learn English, and as he gained a better command of the language, he started to better mesh with his teammates, eventually leading to a solid 44-point rookie season.Fast-forward to this season, Wieser is now taking French courses, and hes already communicating with his francophone teammates in their first language in the dressing room. Heading into play Friday, he had 34 points (22-12). Charbonneau is convinced that Wiesers progress has helped along the younger Schweri, who also struggled at his first training camp and pre-season after being selected in the first round of the import draft this summer.If you wouldve told me in September that Kay would have a (team-leading) 36 points right now, Id call you crazy, said Charbonneau. Tim has helped out a lot. It makes a big difference for how theyve adjusted.The dynamic duo have, at least, played themselves into the conversation surrounding the Swiss national team ahead of the upcoming world junior championships, said their GM.I dont choose for the Swiss team, said Charbonneau. But I think they would be part of the discussion.Both have national team experience and Wieser trained with the U20 program last year. It will be tough to deny him spot considering he leads this countys major junior ranks in scoring.I think we have a good chance to go there, weve been playing a good season so far, so well just see what happens, he said.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. -- Kurt Buschs Sunday at Martinsville Speedway, in some ways, was like his career wrapped into one afternoon. It started with a pit road confrontation with Brad Keselowski, one that had Busch threatening over his radio to rearrange Keselowskis face when the race was finished, and ended with Busch ending an 83-race victory drought. The victory was his first for Stewart-Haas Racing, in just their sixth race together, suggesting that it could prove a very productive partnership, and one that a reflective Busch said he has learned to approach with a more mature attitude. "I ran a lot of my early part of my career as an individual and I didnt respect my team, my team owners," Busch said, adding that having Tony Stewart as a team owner has helped him learn the value of better team communication. Celebrating in Victory Lane also was emotional, too, because he got to do it for the first time with his son, Houston. "It was pretty emotional. To see him starry eyed and not knowing what he needed to do and I was directing him where he needed to stand and where he could see it all better and put him up on stage," Busch said, his voice cracking. "And to have him break down in tears, it got me crossed up because Ive been trying to deliver for him ... It kind of took it to a new level." Busch did it by passing Martinsville master Jimmie Johnson for the lead with 10 laps to go and holding off the eight-time winner to win at the track for the first time since October 2002. It was his 25th career Cup-level victory, and that it came in the most unlikely of places suggested to Busch that hes finally in the right place, team-wise and personally. "Youve got to put life in perspective, and you have to learn from your mistakes and you cant just sit there and try to muscle your way individually through certain situations," he said. "And so you rely on your experience level, you rely on your team, and this is a great day for me to be able to lift the trophy in Victory Lane for Stewart-Haas Racing." Johnson, with eight wins in 25 career starts on the 0.526-mile oval, led 11 times for 296 laps. He seemed on his way to another victory when he took the lead from Busch with 17 laps remaining. But Busch stayed close, ducked underneath Johnson seven laaps later and Johnson had nothing left to make a run at the lead, making for a polite-looking finish.dddddddddddd "Thats all I had," Johnson said. "Man, I ran the rear tires off the car. I flipped every switch and knob I could in there to get front brake and turns fans off and try to help bring my balance back." Just ahead, Busch wasnt sure he could hang on. He hadnt finished in the top 10 in his last 16 starts here. "I didnt know if wed be able to do it, you know? The 48 car is king here, him or the 24," he said in Victory Lane, referring to Johnson and his Hendrick Motorsports teammate, Jeff Gordon, who also has eight Martinsville victories. "Ive been on this journey for a while and every time you come to Martinsville, you just kind of draw a line through it like theres no way Ill be able to challenge those Hendrick guys or be up in the top 10," Busch said. When it was over, Busch brushed aside talk about his in-race comments about his feud with Keselowski, who claimed that Busch "just drove right through me and ruined my day" on pit road, causing Keselowski to lose 30 laps and retaliate. "He tried to flatten all four of my tires," Busch said of his former teammate with Roger Penske Racing. "Thats a no fly zone. ... He will get what he gets back when I decide to give it back." The race featured an event-record 33 lead changes, and Johnson expected there would be one more, but on a slippery day on the smallest circuit in NASCARs premier series, the cars at the end werent conducive to typical short-track racing. "Man, we were so on edge slipping and sliding," Johnson said about the final laps duel, during which there was very little of the beating and banging that usually typifies end-of-the-day racing at Martinsville. "I think the lack of security in our own car kept us from feeling more racy and putting a bum
