DENVER -- Semyon Varlamov put recent struggles behind him, and the Colorado Avalanches sputtering offense did the same -- at least for one night.Varlamov had 32 saves, Patrick Wiercioch and Rene Bourque scored 22 seconds apart and the Avalanche beat the Los Angeles Kings 4-1 on Tuesday night.Gabriel Landeskog and Blake Comeau also scored for Colorado, and Wiercioch added an assist for an offense that scored more than three goals for the first time in 12 games.Weve been waiting for this (for) pretty long, Varlamov said of the four goals. Its always nice to see them.Varlamov had been a victim of Colorados lack of offense when he went through a personal five-game losing streak. He struggled, too, posting a 3.07 goals-against average during that stretch, though he bounced back in a losing effort against Boston on Sunday.He followed that 44-save performance with another strong one against the Kings.The team played well in front of me, he said. When the guys score lots of goals it gives you more confidence.Dustin Brown scored for Los Angeles and Peter Budaj stopped 26 shots. It was the Kings fourth straight loss after opening their five-game trip with a win in Toronto.We hit some posts, but we didnt bear down on the chances we had, Drew Doughty said. We have to make our chances count.The Avalanche had not scored a regulation goal for more than five periods before getting two quick ones at the start of the second.Wiercioch broke through when he stuffed the puck between Budajs skate and the post at 1:10 for his second goal of the season.I was skating behind the net and saw him cheating off the post, so I tried it, Wiercioch said. It doesnt work a lot in practice. Maybe he was reading pass because we had a guy coming down in the slot. I was able to get my stick around and jam it off his pad.Bourque then put his stick on Mikko Rantanens shot from the blue line and redirected it past Budaj at 1:32. It was his fifth of the season and third in three games.The Kings had several chances to get back into it before Brown scored. With Tyson Barrie off for hooking, Nic Dowd backhanded the puck to the front of the net and Brown knocked it in to make it 2-1 with 31 seconds left in the period. It was his third of the season and just the second power-play goal in the last 33 chances for the Kings.The Avalanche made it a two-goal game at 11:32 of the third when Comeau beat Budaj with a shot from between the circles. The Kings challenged play, claiming Jarome Iginla interfered with Budaj, but the goal was upheld upon review.We challenged it because the goalies in the blue paint and he gets bumped a little, Kings coach Darryl Sutter said.Landeskog scored an empty-net goal at 18:23 to make it 4-1.Game notes Avalanche C Nathan MacKinnon had a career-high 10 shots on goal. ... Kings C Anze Kopitar missed his second straight game with an upper-body injury but is expected to skate Wednesday when the team returns to L.A. ... Avalanche C Matt Duchene will make the three-game road trip with the hope of playing as early as Thursday. He was on the ice for Tuesdays morning skate and could be a full participant at Wednesdays practice. He has also missed two straight games.UP NEXT:Kings: Host Edmonton on Thursday to start a stretch of four of the next five at Staples Center.Avalanche: Begin their three-game road trip in Dallas on Thursday night.

But the quarterback hopes to stay involved in football after officially calling it quits Tuesday. "Id love to look at those opportunities as they arise," Pierce said in an interview from his Winnipeg eatery. Ultra Boost Uncaged Homme . And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers. "Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. Adidas Nmd Cs2 Pas Cher . The No. 1-ranked Nadal tweaked his back warming up for the Australian Open final, which he lost almost four weeks ago in a major upset against Stanislas Wawrinka. His first stop after the layoff is the clay in Rio as he tests the back and tries to stay healthy for the French Open in three months. LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraskas fourth-quarter dominance showed up again Saturday. This time it was Terrell Newby leading the way.The senior ran for 113 of his 140 yards and scored two touchdowns in the last 15 minutes, just in time for the 15th-ranked Cornhuskers to turn back Illinois upset bid and win 31-16.Newby touched the ball on 18 of Nebraskas last 21 plays from scrimmage and the Cornhuskers (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten) won going away after being down 16-10. They also avenged a 14-13 loss last year in Champaign.Newby, I thought, was a real man today, Nebraska coach Mike Riley said.Newby didnt have much choice. Fellow running back Devine Ozigbo went out of the game late in the third quarter with an ankle injury, and backup Mikale Wilbon was banged up.I knew I had to kind of carry the load from then on, Newby said. I accepted it and wanted to do everything in my power to get the victory.Newbys two TDs came as Nebraska scored 21 straight points to overcome a 16-10 deficit. The Huskers have outscored their five opponents 78-6 in the fourth quarter.Illinois (1-3, 0-1) got off only 10 offensive plays after taking its six-point lead with 7:40 left in the third quarter. The Illini have lost 14 straight and 23 of 24 against Top 25 opponents.We got better today. We still have a loss but I think we made improvements, Illinois coach Lovie Smith said. We hung in there throughout, had a lead for most of the game, but its about finishing. We didnt do that.Nebraska, favored by three touchdowns, turned over the ball on back-to-back possessions while falling behind. The Illini had to settle for field goals after each takeaway, allowing the Huskers to stay close.The Huskers went 18 plays in 10:42 to take a one-point lead early in the fourth. Nebraska kept the drive alive because of two huge penalties on the Illini. Chunky Clements had Tommy Armstrong Jr. stopped for a loss on a third-and-12, but he was called for a horse-collar tackle, and Darius Mosley was flagged for pass interference on a fourth-and-4.The biggest play, though, was when Newby picked up a first ddown by inches on a fourth-and-1 at the Illinois 4.dddddddddddd The spot stood after a video review.Its a game of inches, Newby said. I tried to do everything I could to stretch the ball out. Im glad it went our way.Newby went into the end zone from the 3 on the next play, and he finished the scoring with a 63-yard burst.Reggie Corbin led the Illini with 72 yards on nine carries, and Kendrick Foster scored their only touchdown on a 31-yard run. Wes Lunt was 13 for 22 for 133 yards.Definitely no moral victories, Lunt said, but were so close to breaking through. Were leading all the way up to the fourth and battled through adversity all game. But at the end, they made a few plays and won the game.THE TAKEAWAYILLINOIS: The Illini, who have lost three in a row since winning their opener, gave Nebraska all it could handle. The offense couldnt get going again once the Huskers took the lead, and the defense was on the field way too long.NEBRASKA: The Huskers should feel good about getting out of this one with a win considering all their injuries. Jordan Westerkamp was taken to a hospital to be evaluated after he appeared to take a knee to the back while getting tackled. Tight end Cethan Carter injured his elbow early in the game.Looking at our team and watching that thing take place, it appears to be a real good time for a bye week, Riley said.POLL IMPLICATIONSNebraska has a chance to move up, but the Huskers arent ready to break into the top 10 for the first time since 2011.LAST WORDWell, did you all stay around for the fourth quarter? That didnt look like much up until then. -- Riley.UP NEXTILLINOIS: The Illini return home to face Purdue, which they beat 48-14 last season.NEBRASKA: The Huskers have an open date next week before visiting Indiana on Oct. 15. It will be the Huskers first game against Indiana since they became Big Ten members in 2011.---Online:AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.org Cheap Jerseys Throwback Wholesale Jerseys From China Youth NFL Jerseys Wholesale Wholesale Throwback Jerseys China Jerseys Cheap Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Youth NFL Jerseys China ' ' '
