CALGARY -- Ryan Smyth didnt need a stick to score the goal that mattered to Edmonton. Nike Air Max 90 Uomo Essential scarpe nere/bianche . The Oilers used a 27-save save shutout by Devan Dubnyk and a pair of goals by Smyth to beat the Calgary Flames 2-0 on Friday. Smyth, who also scored into an empty net with six seconds left, had a fortunate bounce to open the scoring in the first period. With Smyth stationed at the top of the goal crease, Ales Hemsky fired puck from the corner that hit Smyth in the chest and bounced past Calgarys Reto Berra. There was a lengthy video review but the goal was upheld. "When you get a goal like that, light the light and keep them at zero," said Dubnyk. "We did a good job, especially toward the end of game when they were pushing to get one, we didnt give them much." It was Smyths first goals in 14 games. "Smitty battled throughout the game tonight, I thought he was really working," said Edmonton coach Dallas Eakins. Less than three minutes before Smyths goal, it appeared Calgary had taken the first lead when Mark Giordano fired a shot through the pads of Dubnyk. However, as the Flames celebrated the goal, the cheers from the sell-out crowd of 19,289 quickly turned to boos when the goal was being waved off for incident contact with the goalie by Flames six-foot-five centre Joe Colborne. "Its a great call," said Dubnyk. "I know, obviously being here, nobody likes it, but it would have been an easy one for him to let go because it wasnt too noticeable, but he comes through the crease and spins me sideways on the original play. "If he hadnt of done that, then I wouldnt have been sprawling and stretching, and it wouldnt have gone under my arm." Colborne didnt see the play unfold in quite the same way. "To tell you the truth, I didnt even notice touching the goalie. I thought Gio made a really nice fake and because Dubynk was screened, he bit on it then needed to reset himself so he was kind of scrambling and Gio got off a good shot," Colborne said. "To get that first goal of the game was pretty big and were coming back to celebrate with the rest of our team and then you see them waving it off. Its frustrating but regardless, you have to score more than one goal usually anyway so even if that one counted, we still have to go out and play the rest of the game." Dubnyk recorded his second shutout of the season and eighth of his career. "Its always fun to play here," said Dubnyk, who played his minor hockey in Calgary. "Ive lived a lot of years here and its always fun to win. This is the first shutout here, so its extra special." Edmonton (13-24-3), which won consecutive games for the first time in over a month, will go for three victories in a row Saturday night when they host the Philadelphia Flyers. Calgary (14-18-6) has split the first two games in its five-game home stand. Next up is the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday. "The bottom line is we didnt play a very good game. We didnt give ourselves a chance to win. Heres one game that I didnt think we had our usual jump," Flames coach Bob Hartley said. Edmonton moves to within five points of the Flames in the Western Conference standings. "You have to give them credit, they are a hard-working team, but by no means are we going to lay down and be pushed over," Smyth said. "Were a team thats going to fight and claw and try and get ourselves bumping up in the standings, one game at a time and we did it tonight." It was the third meeting between the two provincial rivals and the third straight goaltending duel between Dubnyk and Berra. They had split the first two. Six minutes into the third period, Giordano nearly tied the game but had his shot from the point go off Dubnyks glove and then hit the crossbar. "We didnt get the bounces tonight but we werent good enough. We have to generate more and find ways to score," said Giordano. "For too long of periods of time, we were standing around and not moving our feet enough." Berra had 26 saves to fall to 5-9-2. All five of his wins have come in overtime or a shootout.

Edmonton D Andrew Ference played in NHL game No. 800 ... Neither C Roman Horak or D Martin Marincin, recalled from Oklahoma City on Thursday, were in Edmontons lineup. Nike Air Max 2015 Prezzo . - Defenceman Robyn Regehr was placed on injured reserve by the Los Angeles Kings on Friday with an upper-body injury. New Balance 574 Uomo Windbreaker . -- Drew Doughty had just played more than 39 minutes in a double-overtime playoff game, and he still couldnt sleep on the Kings flight back to Los Angeles. http://www.saldinikescarpe.it/new-balance-574/new-balance-574-donna.html . Snyder said Monday hes creating a foundation to assist American Indian tribes, even as some in that community continue to assert that the name "Redskins" is offensive. ATLANTA -- Gavin Floyd was impressive in his first start in a year, giving the Braves a chance to end their longest losing streak in two years. Justin Upton homered and scored the tiebreaking run on Chris Johnsons eighth-inning single, and the Atlanta Braves beat the St. Louis Cardinals 2-1 on Tuesday night to end their seven-game skid. "That felt good," Johnson said. "Its big. We werent panicking too much. We were relaxed, even though we lost seven in a row." Floyd allowed one run on six hits in seven innings. He made his first major league start since April 27, 2013, for the White Sox against Tampa Bay. He had season-ending Tommy John surgery 10 days later, and his comeback included six minor league rehab starts this year. "It felt good," Floyd said. "There were a lot of emotions, a lot of excitement through this process leading up to it and getting back out there ... not only starting for the first time but trying to get us back on the winning side." Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez had modest expectations for Floyds return. "I didnt expect that really," Gonzalez said. "I expected a guy who was going to scuffle through five, six innings for the first time out. He hadnt been in competition in a year but he sure came out with flying colours. You couldnt ask for anything more. "He was really, really good for the first time in a year." David Carpenter (2-0) had two strikeouts in the eighth. Craig Kimbrel added two more strikeouts in a perfect ninth for his ninth save. With one out in the eighth, Upton singled to centre. Freddie Freeman followed with a liner that bounced off the leg of Randy Choate (0-1) and bounced to third baseman Matt Carpenter for an infield hit. Right-hander Pat Neshek gave up Johnsons single to right field that drove in Upton and allowed Freeman to advance to third. Johnson called the at-bat against Nesheks side-arm delivery "a grind." "It wasnt easy," Johnson said. "That guy is funky. Hes nasty. ... That was jjust a battle between me and him and me trying to get something in play. New Balance Donna 574. I was able to finally stay on the ball and kind of go the other way a little bit." Choate was left to bemoan Freemans shot that hit his leg, setting up Johnsons run-scoring hit. "If it misses me its a groundball to (shortstop) Jhonny (Peralta), probably a double play," Choate said. "I didnt feel it. I didnt even see it. It just somehow found me and ricochets off me. Thats the way it bounces sometimes and it stinks but what are you going to do?" St. Louis left-hander Tyler Lyons allowed only one run on four hits, including Uptons homer, in six innings. "Great start," said Cardinals manager Mike Matheny. "Its a shame we havent been able to score that guy any runs. ... He had everything working today." Lyons retired the first 10 Braves before Upton snapped a 0-for-12 streak with his team-leading ninth homer in the fourth. The Cardinals tied it in the sixth. Matt Hollidays single to right-centre drove in Carpenter, who led off with a walk. Floyd made the start originally planned for Ervin Santana, whose spot was skipped due to his swollen right thumb. Santana is listed as the probable starter against the Cubs on Saturday. Gonzalez stayed with the structure of the revamped lineup he unveiled on Monday in an attempt to snap the losing streak and hitting slump. For the second straight game, shortstop Andrelton Simmons hit ninth, one spot behind the pitcher. NOTES: Atlantas last win was a 1-0 decision in 10 innings over the Reds on April 27. ... The losing streak was the Braves longest since eight straight losses from May 21-28, 2012. ... Matheny said 2B Mark Ellis was held out for a normal day of rest. Daniel Descalso filled in. ... The series ends on Wednesday night when Braves LHP Mike Minor looks for his first win of 2014 against Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright. ...
