The Calgary Flames look to get back on the right track tonight when they square off against the Kings in Los Angeles. Dave Cash Jersey . Goalie Karri Ramo was already scheduled to start tonights game and was forced into action on Friday night in a 5-2 loss to the Anaheim Ducks. Reto Berra yielded five goals on 38 shots before getting lifted late in the third period, with Ramo turning aside all four shots he faced. "They just stormed around (Berras) net. I dont think any goalie would have made a difference. Theyre a big team, they crash the net, they generate lots of traffic and they took advantage of a couple of mistakes on our part," said Flames head coach Bob Hartley. Ladislav Smid and David Jones scored for the Flames, who have dropped three of their last four and gone just 2-7-2 in their previous 11. Calgary also saw its road losing streak versus Anaheim extended to 18 straight games as it played without Dennis Wideman, Sean Monahan, T.J. Galiardi, Curtis Glencross and Mark Giordano due to injury. Wideman and Monahan recently joined the list of walking wounded. The Kings aim to extend their point streak to a club-record 12 straight games. The Kings have gone 7-0-4 since their last regulation loss on Nov. 2 versus Nashville. Three of those setbacks have come in their past four games, however, including a 3-2 shootout setback to the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday. Ben Scrivens made 38 saves through overtime and stopped six of the first seven skaters he faced in the shootout before failing to deny Joe Thorntons backhander in the eighth round. Tyler Toffoli then failed to extend the tiebreaker. "It was a fun game," said Scrivens, who picked up the first assist of his career. "Its my first time in San Jose. Its a loud rink, good fan support. Thats great for the league, we love to see that." In his second game back after being sidelined with a foot injury, Jeff Carter scored 18 seconds into the game and Drew Doughty also tallied to help extend the Kings string of consecutive games with a point. The run currently matches the longest point streak in team history; a 9-0-2 run in 1973-74 and an 8-0-3 burst in 2010-11. Scrivens has never faced the Flames, with injured netminder Jonathan Quick making 22 saves in a 3-2 loss at home to Calgary on Oct. 21. Los Angeles had won four straight and was 8-1-1 in its previous 10 versus Calgary going into that game and had a two-game series home win streak snapped. Like Wednesday, Carter and Doughty had the goals for the Kings, while T.J. Brodie had the winner with 30 seconds to play for the Flames. Mike Cammalleri had a goal and an assist, while Ramo made 27 saves in his career start versus the Kings. Mitch Williams Jersey . Vonn punctuated her near-perfect season in perfect fashion Friday, earning her fourth overall World Cup title with a dominating giant slalom victory. Tommy Joseph Jersey . Halladays resume as a Blue Jay is among the elite in the franchises 36-year history. Over 12 seasons in Toronto, he was named an All-Star six times. He had arguably the finest campaign of his career in 2003 when he posted a 22-7 record, a 3. http://www.cheapphilliesjerseys.com/?tag=cheap-nick-williams-jersey . -- The Tampa Bay Lightning are disappointed, though not discouraged.INDIANAPOLIS - Josh Cribbs enjoys sharing NFL stories with his younger Colts teammates.This week, the 31-year-old return specialist almost feels like one of them.For the first time in his 10-year career, Cribbs has spent Week 18 attending meetings, watching film and preparing for the playoffs rather than cleaning out a locker and heading home for the off-season. Its an experience that has rendered the usually vivacious veteran virtually speechless.When we get in there, I have to hold back my excitement because Im supposed to have been there and done that, Cribbs said. But Ive not done that. So inside, Im kind of like a kid on Christmas morning, Im so excited.Of the 53 players on Indys roster, 17 are expected to make their playoff debuts in Sundays wild-card game against Cincinnati.Sure, 13 players have only been in the league since 2013 and a couple of others, such as backup offensive lineman Joe Reitz, have missed out on the post-season fun because of injuries, but Cribbs and starting linebacker DQwell Jackson provide prime examples of why this years pursuit of a Super Bowl cannot be taken for granted.After eight seasons as teammates in Cleveland, Cribbs and Jackson couldnt believe their luck when they got a chance to play for a contender just a short drive away from the city theyd called home.The first thing I said when I came here was that this team smelled like the playoffs, Cribbs said with a smile and tone thats as infectious now as it was when he entered the league in 2005. Its a treat.For those with post-season experience, its also puts a new twist on Indys annual post-season trip. The Colts (11-5) have won two straight AFC South titles, been to the playoffs each of the past three seasons and have only missed the playoffs twice since 1999, which is why players such as tight end Dwayne Allen cant even imagine how agonizing the wait must have been for Cribbs and Jackson.The reaction of Jackson and Cribbs after Indy clinched a playoff spot with a win over Houston three weeks ago — Jackson nearly wore his division champions hat into the shower — and their continued excitement this week has even given some of the playoff regulars a jolt of energy.Ive been on teams where you look around and all you care about is getting a first-round bye, backup quarterback and former Super Bowl starter Matt Hasselbeck said. Steve Carlton Jersey. But when you have guys who have never been to the playoffs and you see the joy and the child-like feeling they have for making it, its so refreshing. Its awesome, you just love it.Cribbs acknowledges he doesnt want to ask questions about what to expect, choosing instead to soak it all in.But his real challenge Sunday might be keeping those emotions in check. When Cribbs made his first trip back to Cleveland in early December, he was critiqued for trying to do too much on his returns.Former Indy coach Tony Dungy, who won his only Super Bowl title after the 2006 season, often explained to players they didnt need to do anything special in the playoffs where he believed more games were lost than won. Rather, Dungy asked his players to simply sharpen the things they did best so they could execute consistently when the stakes increased.Those who have experienced success understand Dungys message, though it doesnt make it any easier to put in place.Im still a newbie at it, said safety Mike Adams, who has made the playoffs in three straight years after missing them for eight consecutive seasons in San Francisco and Cleveland. Every play is important.And in the case of Cribbs and Jackson, every moment will be one worth savoring for a lifetime.Theyre just hoping it doesnt take nearly as long to appear in a second playoff game as it did their first. A win over the Bengals (10-5-1) would send the Colts into a divisional-round matchup at either top-seeded New England (12-4) or second-seeded Denver (10-4).Cribbs cant wait.Weve already achieved success, Cribbs said, noting that the goal is making a Super Bowl run. Now, its about making this next level and reaching for greatness.Notes: Colts chief operating officer Pete Ward said about 1,000 tickets were still unsold at midafternoon Wednesday. ... Offensive linemen Hugh Thornton (right shoulder) and AQ Shipley (let ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Right tackle Gosder Cherilus (groin), receiver Reggie Wayne (triceps, groin) and outside linebackers Erik Walden (knee) and Bjoern Werner (shoulder) were limited at practice. Cribbs sat out to get extra rest, coach Chuck Pagano said.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Steelers Jerseys Cheap Patriots Jerseys Cheap Bills Jerseys Cheap Jets Jerseys Cheap Giants Jerseys Cheap Redskins Jerseys Cheap Bears Jerseys Cheap Eagles Jerseys Cheap Cardinals Jerseys Cheap Jaguars Jerseys Cheap Raiders Jerseys Cheap Dolphins Jerseys Cheap Panthers Jerseys Cheap Lions Jerseys Cheap Browns Jerseys ' ' '
