St. Sam Bradford Jersey . Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - Brian Elliott made 33 saves and came up with three key stops in the shootout to help the St. Louis Blues beat the Nashville Predators, 5-4, on Thursday. On his 26th birthday, Kevin Shattenkirk scored the decisive goal in the shootout and added an assist in regulation. Jaden Schwartz, T.J. Oshie, Steve Ott and Ryan Reaves all tallied goals for the Blues in their third straight win. Mike Fisher scored twice for the Predators, who have lost three of their last four games. Filip Forsberg and James Neal also scored for Nashville, but Neal could not convert in the shootout to extend the game. Carter Hutton allowed four goals on 35 shots. In a five-minute span during the second period, the Blues turned a 2-0 deficit into a 3-2 lead. Schwartz poked a rebound past Hutton for the first St. Louis marker, and Oshie tied the game four minutes later when he ripped a loose puck in the slot into the net. Not even 30 seconds after Oshies goal, Ott gave the Blues their first lead of the game. Hutton made the initial save in transition, but Ott joined the play late and hammered the rebound home. St. Louis had a chance to add to its lead on a power play soon after Otts goal, but it was Nashville scoring short-handed. From the goal line, Fisher quickly switched from his forehand to his backhand to protect the puck and beat Elliott. With less than two minutes remaining in the second period, Reaves helped create a neutral zone turnover. Dmitrij Jaskin left the puck for Reaves, and he skated into the zone and fired a shot past Hutton to give the Blues a 4-3 lead heading into the final period. That was probably the hardest shot Ive ever taken, said Reaves. Before they even had to pull the goalie, the Predators were able to tie the game with 2 1/2 minutes to go. They cycled the puck low in the zone before Neals one-timer from the circle provided the equalizer. Its a good confidence builder (getting that late goal), Predators defenseman Shea Weber said. The Blues had two great chances to end the game in overtime, but Hutton was able to just slide into position to keep Nashville in the game. After Shattenkirks goal in the fourth round of the shootout, Neal lost control of the puck skating toward Elliott to end the game. Fisher was credited with a power play goal thanks to a fortunate carom. Roman Josis shot from the blue line was redirected to the glass off Fishers stick. The puck took a hard carom off the glass and off Elliotts back over the goal line. Forsberg cashed in on a rebound 5 1/2 minutes into the second period. Craig Smiths shot from the slot bounced off Forsbergs skate, and he quickly recovered to lift the puck by Elliott for the 2-0 Predators lead.

The Jazz on Saturday matched Charlottes four-year, $63 million offer for the restricted free agent. Hayward posted to Twitter: "Officially back with the (at)utahjazz!!!! Wanna thank them and all of .jazznation for believing in me! Lots of work ahead..." The Jazz had until late Sunday to match the Hornets maximum offer sheet for the 6-foot-8 small forward. Jazz general manager Gordon Lindsey repeatedly said he wanted to keep Hayward on the roster. "As we have said since the start of last season, we have always seen Gordon Hayward as a significant part of the future of the Utah Jazz," Lindsey said in a statement. "Gordon is a young, multi-faceted player and a high-character individual who we are pleased will remain a member of the Jazz for many years to come." Hayward averaged career highs of 16.2 points, 5.2 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals last season while leading the Jazz in scoring and minutes. He was the first Jazz player to average 16 points, five rebounds and five assists since Pete Maravich. He had seven games with double-digit rebounds and six with double-digit assists. He scored more than 20 points in 22 games. The Jazz, who couldnt reach an agreement on an extension with Hayward last fall, extended a qualifying offer on June 26, making him a restricted free agent. Hayward also saw interest from the Cleveland Cavaliers before Charlottes offer came Thursday. Haywardss agent, Mark Bartelstein, confirmed that Utah had matched on Saturday morning. Josh Rosen Cardinals Jersey. . The move was first reported by Yahoo! Sports. "I think its certainly a gigantic statement of how the Jazz value Gordon," Bartelstein told The Associated Press. Hornets coach Steve Clifford had praised Haywards "size, skill, competitiveness" and said he could play small forward or shooting guard. "Hes 24 years old and he has the talent, the character and the work ethic to be an All-Star player," Clifford said. The ninth overall pick in the 2010 draft, Hayward has played all four seasons in Utah. He has scored in double figures 63 times with nine double-doubles while averaging 12 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists. The young Jazz struggled last season, going 25-57. In the aftermath, coach Tyrone Corbin was let go after three-plus seasons in Utah and the Jazz hired Atlanta Hawks assistant coach Quin Snyder. Under Snyder, Utah is rebuilding around Hayward, Trey Burke, Derrick Favours and Enes Kanter. Last month, the team added promising Australian guard Dante Exum and former Duke forward Rodney Hood in the NBA draft. "I am excited to have the opportunity to coach Gordon," Snyder said. "He is a talented and versatile player, and will play an integral role in our effort to build the Utah Jazz into a championship-calibre team. We look forward to seeing him continue to develop as a leader on our team." Cheap Chargers Jerseys Cheap Rams Jersey Cheap Dolphins Jerseys Cheap Vikings Jerseys Cheap Patriots Jersey
