SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Teen-ager Matthew Tkachuk stayed up late thinking he would be scratched. When he did hear he would play, he got ready in a hurry.Tkachuk recorded his first two-goal game, including the game-winner with 4:21 to play, and the Calgary Flames handed the San Jose Sharks their first home loss of the season, 3-2 on Thursday night.Troy Brouwer and Tkachuk scored in a 93-second span late in the second period as the Flames ended a two-game slide.I woke up this morning not really expecting I was playing, Tkachuk said. I got the news I was playing and got fired up pretty quickly. I was running on adrenaline tonight, thats for sure.Brent Burns and Melker Karlsson scored for the Sharks, who were the last team in the league to lose at home.We didnt play our best game, far from it, but when you give up one at the end like that, it hurts, Burns said. We had three power plays in the first 10 minutes. You want to score one of those for sure.Chad Johnson stopped 26 of 28 shots in his fourth appearance for the Flames. Martin Jones recorded 19 saves for the Sharks.From my standpoint, I wouldnt say it was an easy game but it was a lot better than my last one, Johnson said. We took away the middle and there werent many breakaways or 2-on-1s or 3-on-2s.The Flames caught a break when Jones kept his eyes on Michael Ferland, who carried the puck behind the net. A quick pass to Brouwer caught the goalie off guard and it was an easy score.Tkachuk made it 2-0 soon after, taking a pass from Deryk Engelland and firing it past Jones.Im glad he got himself a couple for his confidence, Flames coach Glen Gulutzan said.

Discount Air Jordan 1 .Y. -- Leading 3-0 with only 11:25 left, the Colorado Avalanche committed a seemingly meaningless penalty to give the New York Islanders a power play. Wholesale Air Jordan 1 . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. The New Jersey Devils were the NHLs worst offensive team in 2015-16, finishing dead-last in goal-scoring. To address this, general manager Ray Shero acquired left winger Taylor Hall from the Edmonton Oilers and signed depth forwards known for having an offensive knack.Through four games in 2016-17, the Devils are again at the bottom of the league in goals with six in four games and just three goals at 5-on-5. New Jersey failed to score an even-strength goal over its past 175 minutes and 34 seconds, and that lack of even-strength offense proved detrimental in their 2-1 road loss to the Boston Bruins on Thursday.With the Minnesota Wild visiting Prudential Center, Devils coach John Hynes is going back to the drawing board with his line combinations after a 1-2-1 start.Unfortunately for us, weve just had inconsistencies throughout the lineup, Hynes said to the Bergen Record. (Against Boston), we couldnt find a line combination that got anything done 5-on-5. Is that ideal? No. We would like to have line combinations and have things going but weve got to get better performances from guys on our team, more consistent performances.We just have to be better. Even in games, there are pockets where its real good and times when were not doing things. Until we get better performances, youre going to keep making decisions, whether thats line combinations or guys in the lineup, guys out of the lineup. Right now its not good enough to be consistent.Center Sergey Kalinin, who has yet to play a game this season because of an illness, is expected to be activated Saturday. But it will likely take more than the return of a 25-year-old depth forward that had seven goals last season to thwart the Wild.New coach Bruce Boudreau has Minnesota off to a 3-1-0 start and new center Eric Staal has been a big part of it.dddddddddddd He owns three goals in four games, including two in the Wilds 3-2 win against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday.He wasnt happy with his game last game, and real good players, they bounce back because theyve got a lot of pride, Boudreau said of Staal to the StarTribune. I thought he was really good. He had the puck a lot, his legs were moving, so when that happens, good things happen.Staal had a disastrous 2015-16 season that ended with 39 points in 83 games (he got an extra game because of a trade to the New York Rangers from the Carolina Hurricanes), which was his worst total since his rookie season in 2003-04. He signed a three-year deal with the Wild, and his three goals match what he had in 20 regular-season games with the Rangers.I mean, yeah, it feels good to contribute, Staal said to the StarTribune. Anytime you come to a new team, you want to be a contributing player right away. I never felt like I forgot how to play. I knew I could play and Ive been in this league a long time. But I needed to come here and be ready in training camp, and be fit and hungry.Ive done that, and now its about continuing to build. Its only been four games. I got a long way to go but its been a good start for me and hopefully this team keeps picking up wins, because thats what its all about.Left winger Erik Haula and defenseman Jared Spurgeon were injured Thursday and did not practice Friday, which leaves their status for Saturday unclear. Boudreau could choose to dress seven defensemen if Haula doesnt play, but that may not be decided until Saturday morning. ' ' '
