ANAHEIM, Calif. -- John Gibson bounced back from a most lousy performance by giving the Anaheim Ducks more than just a solid performance in net.He even helped generate some offense.Gibson made a season-high 33 saves, Cam Fowler and Ryan Kesler had goals and the Ducks gave the Edmonton Oilers their fourth straight loss, 4-1 on Tuesday night.Nick Ritchie and Antoine Vermette also scored for Anaheim, and Corey Perry had two assists to take the team lead with 15 points.Gibson earned his first assist of the season when he started the play that led to Fowlers 4-on-4 goal.A tie-up between Jordan Eberle and Josh Manson sent both off for two minutes 1:23 into the second period. Exactly 1 minute later, Gibson kicked a shot by Connor McDavid right to Fowler, who took it up the ice, dished it to Jakob Silfverberg, got it back and beat Talbot stick-side for a 2-0 lead.(Gibson) was awesome. He gave us a chance to win the game and kept us in it, Fowler said. The first 10 minutes of the second period were OK, but the last 10 minutes we spent the whole time in our own end. They had all the momentum. Without him, they probably get a couple more.Leon Draisaitl scored for Edmonton and Cam Talbot made 23 saves.Edmonton controlled play throughout much of the second period, outshooting Anaheim 18-9, but it was forced to climb out of a 3-0 hole after the Ducks capitalized on special teams chances to score twice in the second.Defensively, I didnt think we gave up much, but it was still four goals against, Oilers coach Todd McLellan said. I thought we needed to get out of the second period down one, not two, and it would have made a difference.Shortly after Fowlers goal, Kesler ended Anaheims three-game power-play drought and put the Ducks up 3-0 at 7:51 of the second by catching a rebound in front of the crease and backhanding it around Talbots skate.With 1:46 left in the second period, Draisaitl put the Oilers on the board with an unassisted goal.Vermette scored at 9:00 in the third, pushing the game out of reach for the Oilers. Joseph Cramarossa led a 4-on-1 rush and found a trailing Vermette in the slot.I think we couldnt really establish a forecheck tonight, Draisaitl said. We couldnt really get that same momentum that we had in the second period with us. And its too bad, because I think we played a really solid game.Ritchie opened the scoring 7:13 in when he finished a beautiful backhand feed from Ryan Getzlaf with a top-shelf wrist shot over Talbot, the rookies fourth of the season.Game notes Ducks D Korbinian Holzer and RW Chris Wagner were both healthy scratches Tuesday. ...

Stan Smith Adidas Dam Sverige .C. - The Carolina Hurricanes have placed backup goalie Anton Khudobin on injured reserve with an unspecified lower-body injury. http://www.nmdsverige.com/stan-smith-adidas-skor.html ., and Rudi Swiegers of Kipling, Sask., took sixth spot on Saturday in pairs at the NHK Trophy ISU Grand Prix figure skating competition. Adidas Stan Smith Herr Rea . According to a report from the Winnipeg Free Press, the Bombers will name Acting GM Kyle Walters to the post full time. Adidas NMD R1 Dame . Ivanovic was leading 7-5, 1-0 when Hantuchova withdrew after falling 0-40 behind in the second game. The match started slowly for Ivanovic, who surrendered her first two serves as Hantuchova took a 5-3 lead. The Olympics are in the books and unfortunately for the Boomers it was a dose of history repeating; they walked away empty handed once again yet this one seems to hurt more.The Boomers arrived at Rio 2016 ranked No. 11 in the FIBA standings, with high levels of internal belief, but the expectations held outside the playing group were all around the same train of thought: Tough opponent, not expected to medal.That train of thought proved accurate in the end, but not before upset victories against France and Serbia, a strong effort that pushed the United States to their limits, and a resounding victory against world No. 3 Lithuania in the quarterfinals; the world was there for the taking, but thats when the Boomers fell apart and Serbia took control of their semifinal to knock Australia out of gold medal contention.The Boomers produced easily their worst effort of the tournament against Serbia, but they showed admirable fortitude and resilience to recover and take it right up to the world No. 2-ranked Spaniards; if not for a dubious call, the would have claimed the bronze medal and a piece of Australian basketball history.So what does the future hold for the Boomers?There certainly have big holes to fill with Andrew Bogut and David Andersen having surely contested their last Olympics campaign. Bogut is the defensive stalwart of this side, Andersen the spark off the bench., but consider the names the Boomers have to welcome to the team list: Ben Simmons, Thon Maker and Dante Exum; you couldnt ask for a better passing of the torch if you tried.Simmons will comfortably slot into the starting five alongside Aron Baynes in the frontcourt, while Maker can become the focal point of the second unit with Exum.If were to look into our crystal ball and jump ahead to the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, we could see a Boomers side with the following depth:Patty Mills, in Tokyo, will be attending his fourth Olympics with the Boomers, having been leading scorer in all three previous Games.dddddddddddd. He never fails to show up on the big stage, and that has led many pundits, including assistant coach Luc Longley, to say that Mills deserves his shot as a starting point guard in the NBA - experience that can only further help the Boomers cause.Matthew Dellavedova signed recently with Milwaukee Bucks, with whom he will assume the backup role behind Michael Carter-Williams; however, he may not be playing backup for long given his terrific Rio campaign and his championship experience.Ryan Broekhoff showed glimpses of his potential in Rio, and youd expect that he can shine more brightly with another four years of experience under his belt.Simmons, meanwhile, will replace Bogut as the face of Australian basketball for years to come; hell contend for NBA Rookie of the Year honours in the coming season, and is the man to lead Philadelphia out of the dark times.Maker joins Dellavedova in Milwaukee as an unknown prodigy, a gifted athlete with exceptional length who was an outside-the-box pick when taken at No. 10 in the 2016 NBA Draft. His raw tools and x-factor abilities will come in handy in the NBA and on the international stage.And then, of course, Australia also has Exum to consider; he has played only one NBA season with Utah but the presence of George Hill as his new mentor can only do great things for his development.Throw it all together and the Boomers will no longer be classified as a team at the Olympics just there to make up the numbers.Theyll leave Rio with a sour taste in the mouth after smelling the essence of glory, but disappointment can be a powerful motivation for players who believed -- even when others didnt -- that they were a genuine medal chance.With the likely future playing list, they will have even deeper belief.
