CALGARY Nashville Predators Hoodies Authentic , Alberta (AP) ¡ª Known more for his toughness, Zac Rinaldo showed he can score, too.Rinaldo scored the tiebreaking goal in the third period to lead the Nashville Predators to a 5-3 win over the Calgary Flames on Friday night.After Noah Hanifin got caught pinching, Rinaldo broke out on a 2-on-1 with Ryan Hartman and hung onto the puck the whole way before beating Flames goalie Mike Smith on his blocker side with a perfect wrist shot into the top corner at 6:31 of the third to give Nashville a 4-3 lead.In career game No. 335 for the 28-year-old, it was only Rinaldo¡¯s 15th goal.¡°That¡¯s what I live for. That¡¯s what I play for. I play for pride. I play for the team,¡± Rinaldo said.It was the fourth time Nashville took the lead in a back-and-forth game. This time, they held it.¡°The bench was pumped up,¡± Predators coach Peter Laviolette said. ¡°Just a great, great play. We ended up catching numbers going the other way. He made the right decision, made a great shot.¡±Juuse Saros, who stopped all nine shots he faced in relief of Pekka Rinne, said he¡¯s seen that release from Rinaldo before.¡°I know he has a good shot Nashville Predators Hats Authentic ,¡± said Saros, who is 3-0-0. ¡°We¡¯ve seen that many times in practice.¡±Kevin Fiala and Filip Forsberg each had a goal and an assist, and Ryan Johansen and Craig Smith also scored to help Nashville win its fourth straight.Forsberg sealed the win with an empty-netter with 32 seconds left.¡°We¡¯re feeling good,¡± Johansen said. ¡°We understand it¡¯s a long season and there¡¯s a big process, but we¡¯re just going to keep the pedal down and keep continuing to get better.¡±Rinne had 15 saves on 18 shots before leaving with just under 15 minutes left in the third.Elias Lindholm got his team-leading fifth goal for Calgary, and Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Bennett also scored. Smith finished with 25 saves.Nashville took the lead four times with Calgary answering back to tie it three times.Calgary had a great opportunity to tie up it once again at 4-4 when James Neal set up Bennett at the side of the net with a hard pass, but the puck went wide of the open cage.¡°I¡¯m going to have some nightmares about that one I missed, but that¡¯s the way it goes,¡± Bennett said.Down 3-2 entering the third, the Flames pulled even at 2:20 when Derek Ryan wired a perfect feed to Sam Bennett, who was breaking in off the wing and went to his backhand to neatly beat Rinne.While Rinne was stretching to try and stop the puck, Fiala landed on top of the goalie in an awkward-looking collision. Rinne stayed in the game briefly Custom Nashville Predators Jerseys , but came to the bench at 5:09 and after talking with the training staff went to the dressing room.After the game, still wasn¡¯t clear why Rinne departed.¡°I can¡¯t comment on anything because I don¡¯t know anything yet. But we didn¡¯t pull him. Something was wrong,¡± Laviolette said.Saros was excellent in relief, getting tested just seconds after he arrived in the crease. Off the ensuing faceoff, he had to jab out his right pad to rob Lindholm to keep the score tied.Trailing 2-1, Calgary tied the score on the power play with 7:09 left in the second as Lindholm¡¯s shot caromed in off Tkachuk¡¯s skate.Fiala put Nashville back ahead with 5:37 to go in the middle period as the Predators converted their first power-play opportunity of the night, courtesy of a double-minor for high-sticking on former teammate James Neal.Nashville struck first, scoring 51 seconds into the game. TJ Brodie lost his stick along the sideboards and in going to retrieve it, allowed a 2-on-1 in front that was converted by Johansen.Calgary went over 16 1/2 minutes between shots in the first, with Lindholm snapping the streak, burying Johnny Gaudreau¡¯s set-up past Rinne with 1:17 left.Smith put the Predators ahead 2-1 at 4:09 of the second.NOTES: The Flames lost at home for the first time after winning their first two games. ¡­Calgary¡¯s Dillon Dube (lower body) returned after missing one game.

LOS ANGELES (AP) ¡ª Jonathan Quick and Anze Kopitar have been teammates since they were drafted together 13½ years ago by the Los Angeles Kings, so the synchronicity of their milestone achievements Saturday night just felt right.And though 300 is a nice www.officialdevils.com , round number, they were even more excited about a sharp win that propelled the Kings out of the NHL cellar.Quick earned his 300th victory and Kopitar scored his 300th goal while Los Angeles escaped last place in the overall league standings with a 4-0 win over the Edmonton Oilers.The Kings¡¯ captain and their longtime starting goalie were the foundation of two Stanley Cup championship teams in Los Angeles, where they¡¯ve been on the NHL roster together since late 2008.A few minutes after Kopitar got his milestone goal in the third period, Quick finished up his own landmark win along with his 51st career shutout.¡°Feels pretty good,¡± said Kopitar, the fifth player to score 300 goals for the Kings. ¡°I was hoping it was going to come a little bit earlier than that, but it¡¯s here, and I¡¯m proud of that. ¡­ It¡¯s great for Quickie. He¡¯s, in my mind, the best goalie in the world. It¡¯s very comforting to have him back there, and a privilege to play in front of him.¡±Quick made 16 saves and combined with his defense to end the five-game scoring streaks of Edmonton stars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.¡°As far as 300 wins, it¡¯s just a group of guys that I¡¯ve been lucky enough to play with New Jersey Devils T-Shirts Authentic ,¡± Quick said. ¡°Hopefully we keep going. We want to win some more games. For Kopi, that¡¯s awesome. He¡¯s more of a playmaker than a goal-scorer, so 300 goals, that¡¯s a lot.¡±Kyle Clifford, Tyler Toffoli and Jeff Carter scored during a dominant first period in the Kings¡¯ sixth win in nine games since mid-December.Mikko Koskinen yielded three goals on eight Kings shots before Cam Talbot replaced him in the first period for the Oilers.Edmonton coach Ken Hitchcock castigated his team after its seventh loss in eight games.¡°We had one player show up and play,¡± Hitchcock said. ¡°Darnell Nurse was our best player by a mile ¡­ and that¡¯s all we had. We didn¡¯t compete. Their best players were their best players. We didn¡¯t compete. This is on everybody. When you have one player that competes at a high level in a game like this, it can¡¯t be acceptable. There¡¯s been too much of this go on in the first 41 games. We win one, and then we take our foot off the gas, and that¡¯s exactly what we did.¡±The poor first period was a rerun for the Oilers, who also struggled early against Arizona on Wednesday before rallying to win.¡°What has to change for us (is) we¡¯re a situation-motivated team,¡± Hitchcock said. ¡°I¡¯ve only been here 20 games, and I see the situation motivates them. We lose New Jersey Devils Hoodies Authentic , we get embarrassed, we get motivated, and that isn¡¯t a playoff team. That isn¡¯t a playoff attitude, and we have to change. But this can¡¯t be acceptable. ¡­ I don¡¯t know what it is, but we¡¯ll figure it out.¡±All-Star Drew Doughty had two early assists for the Kings, who are on their first sustained stretch of strong play after languishing at the bottom of the league for much of the season.With these two points, Los Angeles moved above Ottawa, Philadelphia and St. Louis while pulling even at the bottom of the Pacific Division with Arizona, albeit with more games played. They¡¯re small but vital movements for the Kings after a dismal first half of the season that included the firing of coach John Stevens.The Kings ranked 30th in the 31-team NHL with only 22 first-period goals before they got three more past the Oilers.Clifford put the Kings up just 3:15 in when he took a pass at mid-ice, skated around Caleb Jones and flipped in his sixth goal. Toffoli scored after Doughty kept an Oilers turnover in the zone and set up the forward for only his second goal in 25 games.Carter then chased Koskinen with his eighth goal of the season.NOTES: Kings F Carl Hagelin returned from a 20-game absence with a knee injury. The Swede played in only five games after Los Angeles acquired him from Pittsburgh in a trade for Tanner Pearson before getting hurt. ¡­ Edmonton RW Alex Chiasson returned from a three-game absence with a sore knee. ¡­ Oilers D Matt Benning was scratched for only the second time since Oct. 25. He left the road trip to attend his grandfather¡¯s funeral in Edmonton on Friday.
