GLENDALE, Ariz. Lance Kendricks Jersey . - Headed for a last-place finish in the Western Conference, the Edmonton Oilers are enjoying the chance to play spoilers. Sam Gagner got the tying goal with 40.4 seconds to play in regulation, then scored the winner in the fourth round of the shootout to lift the Oilers to a 3-2 win over the Phoenix Coyotes on Friday night. "Its nice to get rewarded there," Gagner said of the tying goal. "You have to learn to find ways to win, especially for us down the stretch here." It was a tough loss for the Coyotes, who are vying for the last wild-card spot in the West. Phoenix moved one point ahead of ninth-place Dallas, but the Stars have two games in hand. "Its not about being so much the spoiler. Its fun to be a part of a game that means something," Oilers coach Dallas Eakins said. "Were playing teams that these games are huge for them and we understand. Its fun and its challenging to be in games that really mean something to the other team and I was very interested in how our guys were going to respond." Coyotes coach Dave Tippett compared the loss to an overtime playoff defeat. "The way we gave up the second goal, thats demoralizing, but its no time to hang your head," he said. Oilers defenceman Justin Schultz also scored and Ben Scrivens stopped 24 shots through overtime. Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored the tying goal for the Coyotes in the second period, and Kyle Chipchura put them ahead with 7:18 left in the third. Thomas Greiss also stopped 24 shots for Phoenix. Gagner scored on a deflection, backhanding the puck into the net after a shot from behind the goal by teammate Jordan Eberle to force overtime. Eberle had two assists. Schultz gave his team the early lead in the final minute of the first period. He took a centring pass from Eberle and fired a wrist shot that bounced on the ice and over Greiss outstretched glove hand. The offensive struggles continued for the Coyotes, who have three goals in the past four games, all losses with two overtime shootout defeats. "First period, I thought out execution was poor. Just couldnt get a handle on anything. Didnt pass the puck well," Tippett said. "Our intentions were good, we just couldnt get anything done. Right now we dont have a lot of that in our lineup, the pure execution at high speed." Just 13 seconds into the Coyotes first power play of the game, Ekman-Larsson held the puck for a bit, then shot high to the far corner and found the net with 5:28 left in the second period to even the score at 1-all. The goal ended the Coyotes scoring drought of more than 139 minutes. Greiss kept the Oilers from taking another lead, knocking away a quality shot from Eberle with 2:44 to play in the second. The Coyotes had a chance to add to their lead on a late third-period power play, but Mike Ribeiros shot hit the post. Scrivens went to the bench with a little over a minute to play to give the Oilers an extra attacker, and Edmonton took advantage with the late goal. "An unfortunate mixup, and we let a point slip away again," Chipchura said. The Coyotes lost in a shootout Tuesday to Winnipeg, another non-playoff team.

Heck, we might just miss the BCS. Maybe? It sort of worked out this season. Top-ranked Florida State (13-0) was the only team to get through the regular season unbeaten, and the Seminoles did it in dominating fashion. Ty Montgomery Jersey . At least 90 players who had college eligibility remaining are expected to enter the draft, shattering last years record number of 73. "Its a humongous number, so the first reaction is it makes you step back a little bit," said NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah, a former scout with the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns and Philadelphia Eagles. http://www.packersshopfootball.com/packers-davante-adams-navy-blue-jersey/ . -- The Kelowna Rockets earned their 16th straight win with a 7-2 rout of the Portland Winterhawks in Western Hockey League action Thursday.Great Britain could be handed two extra bronze medals from the Beijing Olympics in 2008 after 14 Russian athletes tested positive for doping. It was revealed by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) last week that 31 athletes from 12 countries, competing in six different sports, could be banned from this years Olympics in Rio after 454 doping samples from Beijing were re-tested.The tests were focused on the doping samples of those athletes who are expected to go to Rio this summer.And the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) has been notified by the IOC that 14 of the 31 athletes are Russian. Russia to criminalise doping Russia aim to make doping a criminal offence by 2017 The ROC has not identified the 14 athletes but they have been named by Russian media and they include several medallists from Beijing. There are allegedly 11 track and field athletes, two weightlifters and one rower on the list.The athletes involved still have the chance to have their B samples tested, but if the positive tests are confirmed, and their results annulled, it could see Britains bronze medal tally from Beijing rise from 15 to 17. Abakumova finished just ahead of Sayers in 2008 Maria Abakumova is allegedly one of the athletes involved after winning the silver medal in the womens javelin in China, an event in which Britains Goldie Sayers finished fourth and could now be promoted to third place.The British quartet of Andrew Steele, Robert Tobin, Michael Bingham and Martyn Rooney came fourth in the mens 4x400m relay and they could also be handed a bronze medal if allegations that Denis Alekseyev, who was a member of the bronzze-medal winning Russian team, is involved prove to be correct and he is disqualified. Kenny Clark Jersey. Andrew Steele and 4x400m team-mates Robert Tobin, Michael Bingham and Martyn Rooney are in line for a Beijing bronze Tatiana Firova, who won a silver medal as part of Russias 4x400m relay squad, is another athlete allegedly under suspicion and Britains Christine Ohuruogu, Kelly Sotherton, Marilyn Okoro and Nicola Sanders could be upgraded to fourth from fifth place as a consequence.Sotherton, who won bronze in the heptathlon at the 2004 Athens Olympics, says if the medals are to be awarded to Britain it will be frustrating news for Britains performance director at the time, Dave Collins. This has touched not just athletes, but people within in the sport, she said.Our performance director in Beijing, Dave Collins, basically got sacked because he didnt reach his medal target, he only got four out of the predicted five. Kelly Sotherton has sympathised with Dave Collins after he was axed after Beijing If the other two do get medals, it would mean he should have got six and his target was five. Would he have been sacked then?Russia was suspended by the IAAF, athletics world governing body, in November after being accused of state-sponsored doping in a report commissioned by WADA.A decision on whether they will be reinstated for the Rio Olympics will be announced on June 17.
