ANAHEIM, Calif. [url=http://www.uswholesalejerseyscheap.com/]Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys[/url] . -- The Anaheim Ducks stumbled into their dressing room with their playoff hopes teetering. They had just given up 22 shots to Edmonton in a horrific second period, and even workhorse goalie Jonas Hiller couldnt stop the last one from denting his net for the tying goal. Coach Bruce Boudreau thought about ripping his team -- until he realized the players were already tearing into each other. The Ducks are drained and desperate, yet they keep finding more energy to chase an improbable post-season berth. Bobby Ryan scored the tiebreaking goal on a breakaway with 11:51 to play, and Corey Perry netted two goals in the final minutes of the Ducks 4-2 victory over the Oilers on Monday night. Jonas Hiller made 34 saves in his 26th consecutive start as the Ducks emerged from a brutal stretch of six games in nine days in 12th place in the Western Conference with 68 points, closing within five of eighth-place San Jose. Theyre still a long shot for the post-season, but theyve also got 42 points since Jan. 1, tying them with St. Louis for the NHLs best record in 2012. "We still believe in this dressing room," said Perry, who scored his 200th NHL goal with 3:20 to play before putting another puck into an empty net with 1:14 left. "If we keep winning our share of games, were going to be there." Jordan Eberle scored a power-play goal for Edmonton in between Perrys goals, but the Ducks hung on for their fifth straight win over Edmonton. Jason Blake had an early power-play goal for the Ducks, who have won 10 of 11 over Edmonton. Shawn Horcoffs slick deflection goal in the final minute of the second period tied it for the Oilers, who lost for the fourth time in five games despite dominating the weary Ducks for most of the final two periods. Edmonton could have had a bushel of goals in the second period if not for Hiller, who hasnt taken a game off since Jan. 10. "I was worried about this game, because I knew if we took them a little bit lightly, we were going to lose," said Teemu Selanne, who moved into a 19th-place tie on the NHLs career scoring list with Jari Kurri, his fellow Finn and personal hero. Nikolai Khabibulin made 26 saves for the NHLs worst road team (9-21-2), but the Russian goalie was heading to the bench for an extra skater when Perry scored his second goal. Edmonton seemed firmly in control of the tied game before Ryan slipped behind the Oilers and took a pass from Selanne. Ryan flipped a backhand past Khabibulin while falling flat on his chest on the ice, scoring his 25th goal for the fourth consecutive season. Selannes assist pulled him even with Kurris 1,398 points. The Finnish Flash said Kurri texted him about breaking the record a couple of weeks ago, asking why it was taking him so long. "He was the picture that was on my wall growing up," Selanne said. "I would never imagine I would have as many points as Jari Kurri." Niklas Hagman then jumped on a turnover by former Ducks defenceman Ryan Whitney and fed it cross-ice to Perry, who scored his 32nd goal of the season. Two days after Boudreau ripped the officiating in a loss at Los Angeles, the Ducks werent called for a penalty until Selanne got a debatable tripping call with 2:47 to play. Edmonton pulled Khabibulin, and Eberle scored during the two-man advantage for the NHLs best power play. "Were a young team and inexperienced, and maybe were not getting the calls that maybe we should," said Horcoff, who ended his six-game goal drought. "But listen, were in 29th place, so were not going to get a lot of breaks out there

Atlanta goalie appeared to be screened by Thrashers defenceman Boris

ATLANTA - The Tampa Bay Lightning are no longer a last-place team or winless in Atlanta for nearly two years. [url=http://www.wholesalejerseyclub.com/]Wholesale MLB Jerseys[/url] . Martin St. Louis scored twice, and Mike Smith made 27 saves to help the Lightning move out of the Southeast Division basement with a 4-1 victory over the Thrashers on Sunday night. Tampa Bay (11-18-10) has 32 points, one more than Atlanta (13-22-5). "Ive got to question whether anybody cares in that locker room right now," Thrashers coach John Anderson said. "Its a joke." Steve Eminger and Ryan Malone also scored for Tampa Bay, which had lost six straight games in Atlanta. The Lightning were 2-for-4 on the power play, with Eminger scoring with a man-advantage in the first period and St. Louis early in the third. Atlanta, which beat Vancouver 4-3 in a shootout Friday night, hasnt won consecutive games since a five-game winning streak in early November. The Thrashers are 6-14-3 since. Tampa Bays last previous victory in Atlanta was a 5-4 overtime decision on Feb. 22, 2007. The Lightning lost the final game of that season in Atlanta, all four games last season and a 4-3 decision on Dec. 20 in their first visit this season. "Obviously, the last time we were here, we were very disappointed with our performance and the result," St. Louis said. "Since then we have been playing much better hockey." Smiths shutout bid ended with 21.2 seconds left when Erik Christensen scored off a rebound during a scramble in front of the net. "It didnt matter," said Smith, who has two shutouts this season. "The win is whats important. (A shutout) is just a bonus." Smith bounced back from a 7-4 loss to Washington in his previous start. "Hes a real competitor. He takes losses hard," Tampa Bay coach Rick Tocchet said of his goalie. "I wanted to get the shutout for Smitty." "I got to redeem myself," Smith said. "Hopefully I can keep it going, but it was a good way to start the road trip." Bryan Little, Atlantas leader with 19 goals, left the game in the second period because of a rib injury and didnt return. The 21-year-old forward played just 5:44 and didnt have a shot. Tampa Bay, which came in on a three-game losing streak, cashed in on a power play just 2:48 into the game. It was the third goal of the season for Eminger, who took a pass from Jussi Jokinen and beat Lehtonen with a shot from near the right faceoff circle. The Atlanta goalie appeared to be screened by Thrashers defenceman Boris Valabik on the play. The goal came 54 seconds after Mathieu Schneider was called for hooking. St. Louis made it a two-goal edge for the Lightning with 3:20 remaining in the second period. Vincent Lecavalier faked a slap shot from the right faceoff circle and passed into the slot to St. Louis, who tipped the puck past Lehtonen. St. Louis second goal came on a power play a minute into the third period. Vaclav Prospal carried the puck in behind the net and passed back in front to St. Louis, who put a quick shot by Lehtonen for his 14th goal of the season. Tobias Enstrom

All series Josh Shalla did most of the damage for the Saginaw Spirit, but it was Vincent Trocheck who led them to round two of the playoffs. [url=http://www.uswholesalejerseyscheap.com/]Wholesale NFL Jerseys[/url] . Trocheck scored the winning goal at 14:01 of the second period as the Spirit eliminated the visiting Sarnia Sting from post-season play with a 3-1 victory on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action. The 18-year-old centre scored twice and had six points in six games as Saginaw won the first-round series 4-2. Shalla, who picked up a single assist, finished the series with six goals and 12 points and currently sits fourth in OHL playoff scoring, two points behind leader Michael Catenacci of the Kitchener Rangers. Michael Fine and Justin Kea also scored for the Spirit while Trocheck added an assist for a two-point night. Reid Boucher scored the lone goal for the Sting, who dropped back-to-back games to close out the series. After picking up at least one point in each of the first four games in the series, Sarnias Nail Yakupov failed to register a single point in each of his clubs final two losses. Jake Paterson stopped 23 shots for the win, and was named first star of the game, while JP Anderson turned away 15-of-16 shots before leaving the game with an injury. Anderson had to leave the game midway through the second period after taking a shot off the mask from Shalla. Brandon Hope allowed two goals on 17 shots in relief. Saginaw went 2 for 6 on the power play as Sarnia failed to score on four opportunities with the man advantage. The Spirit must wait for the Plymouth Whalers-Guelph Storm series to finish before they know who they will face in round two. Plymouth leads their series 3-2 with Game 6 set to take place on Sunday in Guelph at the Sleeman Centre. Elsewhere in the OHL, it was: Niagara 5, Oshawa 3; Plymouth 9, Guelph 3 and Barrie 2, Mississauga 1. At Saginaw, Mich., the Sting outshot Saginaw 13-8 in the opening period but Kea scored shorthanded at 11:18 to give the Spirit a 1-0 lead after 20 minutes of play. Trocheck scored the only goal in the second period and it came on the power play at 14:01. Boucher cut Saginaws lead in half when he scored at 3:11 of the third period. But Fine added another power-play goal for the Spirit just over three minutes later to secure the series. --- IceDogs 5 Generals 3 At St. Catharines, Ont., Daniel Altshuller made 57 saves for the Generals but Ryan Strome scored twice, including the winner, to give Niagara a 3-2 series lead. --- Whalers 9 Storm 3 At Plymouth, Mich., Stefen Noesen scored three goals and added two assists, for his second five-point performance of the series, and both Jamie Devane and Mitchell Heard scored twice as the Whalers crushed Guelph for a 3-2 series lead. --- Colts 3 Majors 2 At Barrie, Ont., Norm Ezekiel scored his first career OHL playoff goal with 12:12 left in the third period and Mathias Niederberger turned

LONDON -- Fabrice Muamba was discharged Monday from the hospital where the Bolton mid

Posted 07-31-2012 at 09:51 PM by tibby000
LONDON -- Fabrice Muamba was discharged Monday from the hospital where the Bolton midfielder had been treated since collapsing from a cardiac arrest during a game less than a month ago. [url=http://www.uswholesalejersey.com/]Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping[/url] . The former England under-21 international had been in the London Chest Hospital since collapsing on March 17. His heart stopped beating on its own for 78 minutes while doctors worked to resuscitate him and his prospects of survival were uncertain. But Muamba recovered remarkably quickly -- leaving his bed just nine days after collapsing -- and has now left the hospital. "I am naturally very pleased to be discharged from hospital and would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to every single member of staff at The London Chest Hospital who have played a part in my care," Muamba said. "Their dedication, professionalism and expertise is simply amazing and I will forever be in their debt. I also wish to say thank you to all the many well-wishers who have sent thousands of messages of support. "Now I am out of hospital, I am looking forward to continuing my recovery and spending precious time with my family." It is still unclear whether Muamba will be able to play professionally again. "It is absolutely fantastic news that Fabrice has been discharged from hospital and everyone at the club is delighted," Bolton manager Owen Coyle said in a joint statement by the club and the hospital. "It is important that Fabrice and his family are now given time and space to be together." Muamba collapsed just before halftime of Boltons FA Cup quarterfinal at Tottenham. Medics tried to revive Muamba for 48 minutes before he arrived at the east London hospital. It took another 30 minutes, after 15 shocks from a defibrillator, before the players heart started beating again on its own.
