COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Antoine Vermette had two assists and scored the clinching empty-netter Monday night to lead the Columbus Blue Jackets past Edmonton 5-3, soccer jerseys adding to the Oilers' road woes.
Kristian Huselius added a goal and three assists and Jake Voracek, Chris Clark and Marc Methot also scored for the Blue Jackets, who totaled only three goals in their previous two games. Derek Dorsett chipped in with two assists for the first multipoint game of his 91-game career.
It was a wild, wide-open game full of odd-man rushes. That wasn't a surprise, since the two teams rank near the bottom of the NHL in goals allowed.
Robert Nilsson and Aaron Johnson each had a goal and an assist and Dustin Penner also scored for the Oilers, who are just 1-14-1 on the road since mid-December.
Clark made it 2-1 at 4:30 of the second when he scored off a quick wrister from near the top of the right circle. It was his third goal since being acquired in a trade from Washington in December.
Methot turned a cross-ice pass from Vermette into a 3-1 lead in the opening minute of the third period.
But the rest of the game was in doubt until Vermette's goal with 55 seconds left.
Andrew Cogliano dug a puck off the short boards and then slid a pass through Huselius's skates to Penner for his 26th, cutting the lead to 3-2.
After Huselius pushed the lead back to two goals with a breakaway slap shot that handcuffed goalie Devan Dubnyk and then trickled across the goal line, the Oilers cut it to 4-3 when Johnson pounced on a rebound at 7:45 of the third.
There were momentum changes and prime scoring opportunities on both sides the rest of the way until the Blue Jackets took advantage when Dubnyk was pulled for the extra attacker in the final minute.
Steve Mason finished with 29 saves for Columbus.
Voracek got the Blue Jackets on the board first. A loose puck ended up on the stick of Derick Brassard near the point. He passed to the right dot where Voracek's one-timer beat goaltender Devan Dubnyk.
Columbus came in 18-12-5 when scoring first this season, while Edmonton was just 6-30-4 when falling behind 1-0.
Less than 2 minutes into the second period, the Oilers pulled even when Nilsson notched his ninth goal of the year, taking a pass from Taylor Chorney, deking a defender and then netting a hard, low shot from the left hash.
NOTES: Blue Jackets D Jan Hejda sustained a lower-body injury in the first period and did not return. ... The game was the third of a four-game road trip for the Oilers. ... Vermette set a career high with 55 points. ... Columbus D Fedor Tyutin played in his 400th career game. ... The Blue Jackets won three of the four season meetings.

Bonino gets 1st NHL goal in Ducks' win over Stars
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - Nick Bonino scored his first NHL goal with an assist from 600-goal scorer Teemu Selanne, and Curtis McElhinney made 30 saves in the Anaheim Ducks' 3-1 victory over the soccer jerseys Dallas Stars on Monday night.
Corey Perry and Kyle Chipchura scored 49 seconds apart in the second period as the Ducks won for the sixth time in eight games to move even with Dallas and Minnesota in 11th place in the Western Conference standings. All three clubs trail Colorado by nine points for the final playoff spot.
Loui Eriksson scored his 28th goal and Kari Lehtonen stopped 43 shots for the Stars, who lost two of three in California to end a four-game road trip. High-scoring center Mike Ribeiro was scratched for missing a team meeting, coach Marc Crawford said.
The Ducks honored Selanne before the game for becoming the 18th player to score 600 NHL goals, hitting the milestone last week in a home game against Colorado. Jari Kurri, Selanne's boyhood idol and former Ducks teammate, flew in from Finland to join the celebration with Selanne's family and Ducks owners Henry and Susan Samueli.
"I never expected I could play this long and achieve this kind of milestone," Selanne said. "I'm so glad it happened here in front of my family and these fans."
Selanne is leaning toward retirement after the season, but Anaheim's fans showered him with chants of "One more year! One more year!"
The 39-year-old Finnish Flash then gave a performance that underlined why he might want to stick around, getting eight shots as the Ducks' most active forward. He came close to scoring his 601st goal _ which would match Kurri's career total _ in the final minutes, but just missed getting the puck on the empty net.
McElhinney held the Stars scoreless until late in the second period of his second straight start in place of Jonas Hiller, who was held out for precautionary reasons after having back spasms during warmups. McElhinney had barely played in his first few weeks since arriving in a trade with Calgary early this month.
Center Ryan Getzlaf also missed his second straight game with a sore left ankle, but Perry had a goal and an assist for his fourth multipoint effort in seven games.
After a scoreless first period, Bonino batted home a rebound of Selanne's shot from the slot for his first goal in just his second NHL game.
Bonino won an NCAA title at Boston University last year, a few weeks after Anaheim acquired his rights from San Jose in a deal for Travis Moen and defenseman Kent Huskins. After another season with the Terriers, he signed an entry-level contract with the Ducks on March 21 and immediately joined the club for last Friday's win at Edmonton.
Perry scored his 27th goal a few minutes later, and Chipchura added his fifth when Dallas' defense allowed him to hack at Lubomir Visnovsky's rebound with little opposition.
Eriksson finally got Dallas on the board on a slick behind-the-net pass from Brad Richards 1:18 later, but Anaheim dominated puck possession for the rest of the night, getting its 40th shot early in the third period.
NOTES: Kurri wore his Mighty Ducks jersey from the 1996-97 season while dropping the ceremonial first puck between Selanne and Dallas' Jere Lehtinen. ... Eriksson has five goals and five assists against Anaheim this season. ... McElhinney's victory was the seventh of his brief NHL career.

Edmund Hottor's Agent Denies Milan Link
Tuesday, November 10, 2009 -- The agent of Triestina youngster Edmund Hottor has denied speculation that the 16-year-old would be switching over to Italian and European giants AC Milan very soon.
Milan have been trying to snap up some young players in Italy to boost their chances of long term success and the Rossoneri have been linked with Hottor. But the player's agent has denied that a deal has been reached.
Leonardo Giusti told ilsussidiario.net:
"Yes, Napoli have raised the stakes because we do not currently have an agreement with Milan.
"The Rossoneri have reached an agreement with Triestina and we are very proud and happy with this, but they will also have to talk with me as I represent the lad and we will take the offer into consideration.
"We would be very happy to MLB jerseys end up in Milan."

Zidane: Real Madrid Will Win The Champions League
Wednesday, December 9, 2009 -- Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane has said that los Blancos will win the Champions League this season.
Madrid defeated Marseille 3-1 in Group C in the Champions League on Tuesday evening to progress through to the knockout stages of the Champions League as group winners.
Speaking to AS, Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane said:
"Lately I am enjoying watching them [Madrid]. The players are impressive. They are playing more like a team now and that is important because there is still three or four months to NBA jerseys improve."

Man City vs. Blackburn: EPL Betting Preview
Just two Premier League matches got the go-ahead this weekend due to the current big freeze crippling the UK but there is set to be further action on Monday night and the clash at Eastlands should be a decent watch.
Roberto Mancini’s appointment as Manchester City manager following Mark Hughes’ dismissal was not entirely surprising but the Italian seems to have adapted quickly to life in the Premier League and the ex-Inter boss will be confident of bagging three more points against Blackburn Rovers.
Wins over Stoke and Wolverhampton Wanderers, both without conceding, would have been expected under any manager with the players City possess but they looked a lot surer at the back in picking up those six points and, typically, Mancini will be after more of the same. He must cope without a number of stars however and odds of 1.40 about them doing so look only fair.
With Emmanuel Adebayor and Kolo Toure on African Nations Cup duty and the likes of Joleon Lescott, Steven Ireland and Shaun Wright-Phillips on the treatment table, City’s resources will be stretched on Monday against a struggling Blackburn side but they have enough quality in reserve and will expect to preserve their unbeaten home record in the top flight this season at the very least.
City face a Blackburn side that have not tasted success in the Premier League for eight matches now, scoring just four goals in that time, and although Mancini’s counterpart Sam Allardyce has virtually a full strength squad at his disposal the Englishman has little in the way of quality to call upon.
While Rovers’ home form remains strong, they’ve been beaten just twice at Ewood Park all season, five points on their travels and seven goals in as many matches simply isn’t good enough and they were comprehensively outplayed in a 3-1 defeat at Aston Villa in the FA Cup third round last time out.
One bright spot for Allardyce this season has been the return to form of midfielder David Dunn but Rovers’ top scorer limped out of action at Villa Park and his participation on Monday is in doubt. Dunn’s absence would hurt the visitors up against the likes of Gareth Barry but they seem unlikely to face new City signing Patrick Vieira who appears set to be left out.
If the home team are to close the gap on leaders Chelsea at the top to seven points then seemingly pivotal to their chances of doing so is the form of Carlos Tevez and the Argentine striker is probably the Premier League’s most in-form forward at present.
Seven goals in Tevez’s past six matches has seen his confidence soar and if he continues to team up with the likes of Craig Bellamy and Robinho with such effectiveness for the remainder of the season then City could well be in line for top honours. Tevez now has 12 goals to his name this term and with Adebayor on the sidelines the onus remains very much on him to produce the goods.
On a night where the Match Odds look about right, the 5.00 about the former Manchester United strtiker opening the scoring appears generous and with Bet 365's unlimited places in their each way terms a profit is still to be had even if Tevez manages to find the net after the first strike. It’s a clash that the home side should win with relative ease but the NHL Jerseys play in the first scorer market is the way to go.

Man Who Found Prototype iPhone Admits It
Meet Brian J. Hogan: The 21-year-old resident of Redwood City, CA is the focus of soccer jerseys the tech world this morning. Why? Did he invent a low-cost computer for developing nations or sell his social network for $100 million? Nope. He found a lost phone in a bar. Not just any phone, of course. Hogan found an iPhone--from the future.
Hogan attempted to return the thing in vain, ultimately selling it to Gizmodo for $5,000, Wired reported Thursday. One police invasion of a Gizmodo editor's home later, and here we are.
0diggsdigg
Wired tracked Hogan down and spoke with his lawyer, who offered some choice quotes, including, "He regrets his mistake in not doing more to return the phone. Even though he did obtain some compensation from Gizmodo, Brian thought that it was so that they could review the phone."
The attorney, Jeffrey Bornstein, also made a big effort to emphasize what a good guy his client is: "He also volunteers to assist his aunt and sister with fundraising for their work to provide medical care to orphans in Kenya. Brian is the kind of young man that any parent would be proud to have as their son."
That said, the police are still investigated the possibility that a crime was committed. According to San Mateo County chief deputy district attorney Stephen Wagstaffe, the phone's finder "...is very definitely one of the people who is being looked at as a suspect in theft. Assuming there's ultimately a crime here. That's what we're still gauging, is this a crime, is it a theft?"

Man Utd vs. AC Milan: CL Betting Preview
It's crunch time in the Champions League as the last 16 second legs loom large and there are any number of NFL jerseys fascinating clashes in prospect over the next week or so.
Manchester United are firmly in the driving seat in their tie with AC Milan, the English side will defend a 3-2 advantage on home soil, and while I predict the Red Devils will advance with ease there is definitely some value to be had in the total goals market.
Having missed the weekend win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, which took United back to the Premier League summit, star man Wayne Rooney is once again a doubt for the clash with Leonardo's men and his absence would be a blow to the hosts.
United laboured for long periods at Molineux without their leading scorer, Paul Scholes proving the late hero for the visitors with his 100th career Premier League strike in the 1-0 win, and I can only envisage a low scoring clash once more - even if Rooney makes an unexpected recovery.
In the knowledge that AC Milan must almost certainly triumph by two clear goals to progress to the quarter finals, an unlikely 4-3 win would also be sufficient, I think it highly probable that Sir Alex Ferguson will pack the midfield in a bid to stifle the away side's threat and chances could well be at a premium.
United have battered lesser sides at Old Trafford this season but the visitors are no mugs and Milan are likely to be patient in their pursuit of overturning the first leg deficit.
Despite their second half capitulation at the San Siro against Wednesday's opponents, AC are likely to be difficult to breakdown in their bid not to be out of the contest early on and the hosts could well enjoy large periods of possession without much penetration given striker Michael Owen is also out of the reckoning with a season-ending hamstring injured sustained in the Carling Cup triumph over Aston Villa at Wembley.
The Italians were held to a goalless draw at Roma on the weekend, they remain adrift of city rivals Inter in the title race, and given their 14 domestic games away from home have produced just 28 goals the value lies in the unders at a generous looking 1.91 with a host of firms.
It is sure to be a cagey encounter and I have it priced much closer to the 1.70 mark.

Osi Umenyiora Out for Season
The DE has a total of Soccer jerseys 41.5 career sacks, 14 forced fumbles and 231 tackles (165 solo) in five seasons. He's played in 72 games. Last season in 16 regular-season games, he made 52 stops (40 solo), 13.0 sacks and five forced fumbles. The DE has a reputation for being an explosive pass-rusher with power and speed. He's considered to be one of the best at putting pressure on quarterbacks.
DE Mathias Kiwanuka looks to be the replacement. Originally an outside linebacker, last season he was successfully converted to the defensive end position. In 10 games last season, he had 4.5 sacks and 46 tackles (34 solo). He missed the last six games of the season with a fractured fibula. He's a fine athlete with some good power and quickness but he's not as strong or as skilled as Umenyiora. Entering his third year in the NFL, Kiwanuka played a full season in 2006. There are some concerns regarding durability.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 -- It's one of those things that fans, coaches and players all dread—a player moving against the grain, going to make a move and turning his body, his foot seems to stay planted in the turf and "snap." That's was happened to Giants Pro Bowl DE Osi Umenyiora in the the second quarter of a preseason match-up against the New York Jets.
Umenyiora was trying to get around Jets tackle D’Brickashaw Ferguson when e was hurt.
Although as Umenyiora went off the field the injury may not have been too serious, it was. The DE tore his lateral meniscus, sending him into surgery, ending his 2008 football season before it ever began and dimming the hope that the New York Giants would get to the Super Bowl again. Umenyiora went through surgery on Tuesday and doctors were optimistic about the outcome.

Celtics 85 Heat 76
The Celtics put the clamps on the Heat in the soccer jerseys 
fourth quarter to beat the Heat 85-76 on Saturday and cash in for pro basketball betting backers as a 4.5-point home favorite.

Prediction: Cards Over Pitt in Super Bowl XLIII
Most experts have chosen the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl. And when you consider the rosters, defenses and offenses, it makes sense to go with the Steelers and not the Arizona Cardinals. But there’s another way to look at the NFL jerseys
game. Here’s my take on it.
Offenses
Since the playoffs started, the Arizona offense has been running on all cylinders. Kurt Warner has been very fine and Larry Fitzgerald continues to be the big-play, go-to guy. Edgerrin James has found his running game and the O-line is playing great. In each of three playoff games, the NFL jerseys
team has scored 30 or more points.
Pittsburgh has played fine, but their offensive line is porous, putting Ben Roethlisberger at jeopardy. The line is also problematic for the running game, especially with Willie Parker running hot and cold. The receiving squad is questionable with Hines Ward nursing an injury
Advantage: Arizona
Defenses
The Cardinals’ offense has been great in the playoffs, managing numerous picks and fumble recoveries. Their secondary is solid. All season long, Pittsburgh has fielded a great defense. In the playoffs, they have been solid, driving rookie quarterback Joe Flacco to distraction. But Kurt Warner is no rookie and the Cheap Ugg Boots
Cardinals have handled two veteran QBs, Jake Delhomme and Donovan McNabb, ably.
Advantage: Tie
Special TeamsSoccer jerseys
Both field goal kickers are on the money and perform well under pressure. The return game edge goes to the Cardinals, while the coverage unit of Pittsburgh is better than soccer jerseys
Arizona’s.
Advantage: Tie
Injuries
Hines Ward is hurting and Willie parker may be. That’s bad news for Pittsburgh. J.J. Arrington at running back is trying to make a go of it for the Cards. Arizona receiver Anquan Boldin looks like he is healed and ready to go. Ugg Boots
Advantage: Arizona
My Pick
The Arizona Cardinals will not only win with the point spread (they’re at plus-seven), but they will take the game outright. The surprise of the 2008- 2009 NFL season, the Cardinals, win this one 27- 17
game. Here’s my take on it.
