ANAHEIM, Calif. Lanny McDonald Jersey . - The Anaheim Ducks roster is an injury-plagued mess, and they havent won a game by more than one goal in nearly seven weeks.The Ducks are still leading the entire NHL, thanks to a team-wide tenacity that the Edmonton Oilers just couldnt match.Matt Beleskey scored his 14th goal and Frederik Andersen made 21 saves in Anaheims fifth consecutive victory, 2-1 over the spiraling Oilers on Wednesday night.Ryan Kesler also scored for the Ducks, who held off last-place Edmontons late charge for their eighth win in 10 games. Anaheim (19-6-5) is three points ahead of Detroit in the overall standings despite the absence of top goal-scorer Corey Perry, who has the clubs latest major injury.We have a lot of good players on this team, and experience makes players better, said Kesler, who has 10 goals in 30 games with his new team. When guys go down, guys have opportunities, and they make the most of it. We dont let much define us in here when we deal with adversity — or the mumps.The Ducks last 12 victories were by just one goal, and they hung on to that slim lead yet again after Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored early in the third for Edmonton, which has lost 13 of 14.I think if you want to win championships, you have to be a good defensive team and you have to win close games, said defenceman Hampus Lindholm, whose sublime outlet pass set up Keslers goal. We can always be better, but we did enough to get a win.The Ducks won their second straight game without Perry, who is out until January with a sprained knee. Major injuries have been commonplace this season for Anaheim, which has already lost 192 man-games with a quarter of its opening-night roster on the injured list.Theres definitely a lot of opportunity out there, and were just trying to take advantage of it, said Beleskey, who is tied for seventh in the NHL in goals.Former Ducks goalie Viktor Fasth stopped 32 shots for the Oilers (7-17-5), who are tied with Carolina for the fewest points in the NHL.We played a good road game, Fasth said. Freddy was good in net at the other end, but I still think we could have a little more traffic in front of him and make it harder for him. ... Its small things, and we have to look at those small details to become better. Weve got to start winning.After Anaheim took an early 2-0 lead, Andersen hung onto it with a series of sharp saves. The Danish goalie even earned an assist on Keslers goal.Edmonton has just one victory since Nov. 9 and has already fallen 24 points behind Anaheim in the Western Conference race.Third game in four nights, and we had the ability to stay in the game, Oilers coach Dallas Eakins said. Its hard to really single out anybody for a bad night. I thought our guys worked hard against a team that had been sitting here waiting for us for a few days.Beleskey put the Ducks ahead during a first-period power play, converting a one-timer after sharp passes from Kyle Palmieri and Rickard Rakell.Midway through the second period, Lindholm sent a long pass to Kesler, who outskated Taylor Hall and beat Fasth with a clean wrist shot. Kesler has four goals in three games after a nine-game drought.NOTES: The teams meet again in Edmonton on Friday. The Ducks played road games in Minnesota and Winnipeg last week before flying home for this game — and then starting a five-game Canadian road trip. ... Rakell has assists in both games since his return from a demotion to the AHL. The Swede had just three points in Anaheims first 17 games. ... Anaheim hasnt won a game by more than one goal since Oct. 24. Derek Ryan Jersey . - Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Jason Babin is now a free agent. Rasmus Andersson Jersey . He was attracted by the punishing defence, the strong running game and a coaching staff he trusted. The 49ers announced Thursday that Manningham had signed a two-year deal to join the team he helped knock out in the NFC championship game two months ago in their latest offensive upgrade at wide receiver. http://www.officialflamesfanstore.com/authentic-miikka-kiprusoff-flames-jersey/ . After Andrew Romine served up two monster home runs in the inning, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said he thought Romine was one of the bright spots on the night, showing just how bad the series opener against the last-place Minnesota Twins went for the Tigers.MINNEAPOLIS -- Kevin Love is used to carrying the beat-up Minnesota Timberwolves lately. This time, he finally had some help when he sat down to take a rest. Love had 42 points and 16 rebounds, Ricky Rubio tied a franchise high with 17 assists, and the Timberwolves beat Paul George and the Indiana Pacers 104-91 on Wednesday night. J.J. Barea scored 12 points off the bench as the Wolves took control early against the Eastern Conference leaders. "This is one of my favourite wins of the season just because we played a very good team," Love said. "We did it without two key players and we fought hard." George led Indiana with 35 points, but managed just two in the fourth quarter as the Pacers lost for the third time in five games, never once taking a lead. "We just didnt have a whole lot of pop tonight," said David West, who scored four points and struggled guarding Love all night. "This is a game that I thought we would come out and play a little better than we did. We just didnt have it, just a step or two slow." It was Loves eighth straight game with at least 25 points and 10 rebounds, the longest streak since Shaquille ONeal accomplished the same feat Jan. 3-19, 2005. Love has an NBA-best 14 games with 30 points and 10 rebounds this season. "I thought a lot of the shots he made was good defence," Pacers coach Frank Vogel said. "You have to give him credit. He is an extraordinary player and he played an extraordinary game tonight." In their first game since the All-Star break as they try to make a late-season run and catch Golden State for the final playoff spot in the West, the Wolves came out running and led by 16 when Love came out for a rest 3 minutes into the second quarter. Minnesotas reserves have been unable to hold their ground when Love goes to the bench recently, but they did fine on Wednesday. Barea, the subject of recent trade rumours, scored eight straight points during one stretch -- including a circus shot on the fast break over C.J. Watson that increased Minnesotas lead to 20 with 6:48 left in the half. "When he gets his rest, we need other people to step up," Barea said. "Tonight, we were able to do that." Love scored 18 points in the third quarter, including a jumper from jjust inside the 3-point line with 0. Sam Bennett Jersey. 8 seconds left that pushed the Wolves lead back up to 10 after an Indiana run. Minnesota, playing without injured starters Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Martin, led by as many as 17 in the third quarter. However, with Love sitting to start the fourth, a jumper from Watson early in the quarter cut Indianas deficit to five and gave the Pacers hope. But again, Minnesotas reserves held on. Barea knocked down a jump shot in front of the Wolves bench to extend the lead back to 11 with 8:33 to play and the Wolves never looked back. "Coach came to me and said hes going to give me a little bit of a rest," Love said. "He came to me during the timeout and said These guys are rolling. I said Great, just keep them in as long as you need to. Those guys just did a great job and really stepped up and took advantage of the opportunity tonight." When Love returned, he reeled in a full-court pass from Rubio with his fingertips and slammed it home to give the Wolves a 98-84 lead. Indiana went into the All-Star break stuck in a shooting slump, but shot 50 per cent in a win over Atlanta on Tuesday. The Pacers made just 8 of 22 shots to start Wednesdays game and finished at 40 per cent. "We will reflect on this," George said. "We really didnt want to lose and drop this game. But we have to move on. Its all about the next game." George Hill finished with 13 points and Lance Stephenson had 10 despite missing his first six shots. NOTES: Wolves coach Rick Adelman on how trade rumours impact players as the deadline approaches: "I think it definitely affects them. But its all part of the business, especially now," he said. ... The Pacers are 8-7 on the second game of a back-to-back. "Not really," Vogel answered after he was asked if he, George and Roy Hibbert have caught up on rest after All-Star weekend. "Im a little more tired than usual. Im sure those guys are. But it doesnt mean anything. Still have to go out and win games." The Wolves still dont know when Pekovic or Martin will return. Adelman said Martin will get his injured thumb examined again in the next day or two. .. Wolves centre Ronny Turiaf left in the fourth quarter with a right knee injury and didnt return.
