Calgary, AB (SportsNetwork.com) - Jamie Benn and Trevor Daley scored in the second period and the Dallas Stars held on to top the Calgary Flames, 2-1, at the Saddledome. Kari Lehtonen halted 21 pucks and Cody Eakin added a pair of assists for the Stars, winners in three straight and four of five. Mark Giordano lit the lamp for the Flames, who have lost seven straight games. Jonas Hiller played well in defeat, making 19 saves. These are the tough lessons but I think its going to make us stronger, said Flames coach Bob Hartley. Calgarys first goal of the night came with 1:15 left before the second intermission as Giordano collected a clearing attempt along the left-wing boards, fired away from the blue line and beat Lehtonen with a floater. Hiller came to the bench for an extra attacker in the final 1:44, and Tyler Seguin put the puck into the empty net on a wraparound with 27.1 seconds left, but the score was wiped out and Seguin was sent to the penalty box on a tripping call. The Flames skated 6-on-4 but failed to squeeze off a shot on Lehtonen before the buzzer. Benn put the Stars on the board, scoring off a left-circle faceoff win by Eakin at the four-minute mark of the middle frame. The lead was doubled at 11:54 when Daley whipped a wrister home from the right circle off a 3-on-2 break.

Nikola Jokic Nuggets Jersey . -- Felix Girard scored on the power play in the third period to lift the Baie-Comeau Drakkar past the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada 4-3 in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action Friday.GLENDALE, Ariz. - Its one of the mottos of Pete Carrolls program. The word Finish is everywhere when it comes to the Seattle Seahawks, always with the idea of being the better team at the end of the game.For a change, Seattles record-setting defence wilted in the fourth quarter. Instead of finishing, they faded before Tom Brady and New Englands rally.I think Im going to go lock myself in my room for about two weeks. This one hurt because we had it, Seattle linebacker Bruce Irvin said. We had it.Staked to a 10-point lead at the start of the fourth quarter, the best defence in the NFL could not deliver a second straight Super Bowl title for the Seahawks.One of the things we take great pride in is playing until the finish. We had the lead and for them to come back on us, thats hard to accept, Seattle defensive co-ordinator Dan Quinn said. I have to tip my hat to them and the execution they had at the end.All the attention will be placed on the decision to have Russell Wilson throw from the 1-yard line in the closing seconds, resulting in Malcolm Butlers clinching interception for New England.But that moment became possible because Brady put together two lengthy fourth-quarter touchdown drives against a Seattle defence that late in the regular season didnt allow a fourth-quarter point in six straight games.Seattle had the best pass defence, best total defence and best scoring defence in the NFL. The Seahawks had allowed less than 10 points per game during their eight-game win streak entering the Super Bowl.Failing in the fourth quarter was a crushing turn for a unit that had been praised for being the best of this era of the NFL. All-Pro safety Earl Thomas sat silent at his locker for more than 10 minutes in an oddly quiet locker room.New England was just the fifth team in the past three seasons — a span of 56 games — to score at least 14 points in the fourth quarter against Seattle.ddddddddddddWeve got to be fundamentally sound. Were a very good fundamentally sound team but when youre not fundamentally sound things happen, Kam Chancellor said. Things happen and a great quarterback like Tom Brady, hell find it. Hell definitely find it. Weve got to be fundamentally sound.This wasnt the elite Seattle defence of late in the season on Sunday. Thomas and Sherman both played with injuries suffered in the NFC championship game. Chancellor injured his knee in practice on Friday and had to go through a pregame workout just to be cleared.Then the Seahawks suffered two major losses during the game. Nickel cornerback Jeremy Lane broke his wrist after intercepting Brady in the first quarter, causing a shift in the secondary. Backup cornerback Tharold Simon was suddenly thrust into action and struggled.Defensive end Cliff Avril suffered a concussion in the second half and Seattles pass rush was unable to get at Brady in the fourth quarter. Brady was 13 for 15 passing in the final quarter and the Patriots had 123 yards of offence.Those were two big injuries to core guys for us, but we ran the same plays, Sherman said. We executed, even though some mistakes were made at the end. When you lose two starters its going to be tough for your defence.The Seahawks fell to 2-6 over the past two seasons when allowing 24 or more points. Five of their six losses this season, including Sunday night, came when giving up 24 or more.The question afterward was whether Seattle could use this loss the same way it used its 2012 playoff loss to Atlanta, which was the catalyst for the Seahawks title a year ago.Bobby Wagner wasnt interested.I would rather learn from winning than learn from losing, he said.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Wholesale MLB Orioles Jerseys Red Sox Jerseys From China Discount Yankees Jerseys Online Rays Jerseys For Sale Blue Jays Jerseys From China Wholesale MLB White Sox Jerseys Indians Jerseys For Sale Tigers Jerseys From China Wholesale MLB Astros Jerseys Cheap Baseball Angels Jerseys Athletics Jerseys From China Mariners Jerseys For Sale Cheap Baseball Rangers Jerseys Braves Jerseys For Sale Discount Marlins Jerseys Online Discount Mets Jerseys Online Phillies Jerseys From China Wholesale MLB Nationals Jerseys Cubs Jerseys From China Discount Reds Jerseys Online Brewers Jerseys From China Wholesale MLB Pirates Jerseys Wholesale MLB Cardinals Jerseys Diamondbacks Jerseys For Sale Rockies Jerseys For Sale Discount Dodgers Jerseys Online Discount Padres Jerseys Online Giants Jerseys For Sale ' ' '
