    ST. Roquan Smith Jersey . LOUIS - Paul Stastny is feeling right at home with his new team.A native of St. Louis, Stastny has four points in his first two games with his hometown team after picking up three assists in the St. Louis Blues 4-1 win over the Calgary Flames on Saturday night.Stastny, who signed as a free agent in the off-season, had a goal in his debut with the Blues in Thursday nights 3-2 loss to the New York Rangers. He liked Saturdays result much better.I think we just got more comfortable out there, Stastny said. The first game we were kind of getting the jitters out of the way. I think we just kept it a little more simple, and kind of created chances through turnovers.Joakim Lindstrom and David Backes scored in the first period and Brian Elliott stopped 23 shots for St. Louis.Alex Pietrangelo and Vladimir Tarasenko also scored for the Blues, and Kevin Shattenkirk also had three assists to help St. Louis improve to 7-1-1 in its last nine games against Calgary.Blues coach Ken Hitchcock was pleased with the effort.We managed the puck well, Hitchcock said. We really did a lot of things. We played on our toes. I thought we did a whale of a job.Curtis Glencross ended Elliotts shutout bid with a power-play goal with 4:13 left.I think we executed for the most part the whole game, Elliott said. Its fun watching those guys working hard for you in front of you.Mark Giordano picked up an assist on Glencross goal for his 200th NHL point, and Jonas Hiller finished with 35 saves for the Flames, who have lost five straight at St. Louis.We knew they were going to come out hard tonight, Glencross said. We didnt bring our game tonight. We got outworked. You know when you come into play a big, strong team like this, youre in for a battle.Two nights after coming out flat in its season-opening loss to the Rangers, St. Louis got off to a fast start against Calgary.Just 48 seconds in, Stastny got the puck down low on the right side and slid it across the ice to Lindstrom, who tapped it in for his first goal with the Blues and his first goal in the NHL since Oct. 13, 2011.The Flames never recovered.Its tough to start off the game with a 3-on-1, Hiller said. Its a tough building getting score on early and they have a really good team that plays really solid and dont give you too much. You have to open up and thats what they drive off, those counter attacks.The Blues made it 2-0 with a power-play goal at 8:44 of the first period when Backes deflected Shattenkirks shot from the point.Another shot from the point by Shattenkirk led to another power-play goal early in the second period. His shot from the left point missed the mark, but the puck came off the boards to Pietrangelo crashing down the right side and he put it home.Tarasenko scored off a centring pass from Jaden Schwartz at 7:10 of the second period to make it 4-0.Stastny now has 49 points in 41 career games against Calgary.When you play a team that many times, youre going to get points against them, Stastny said. My first couple of years, I played them eight times a year. NOTES: Flames RWs Jiri Hudler and David Jones missed the game. Hudler was scratched after falling sick on Friday night and Jones has a lower-body injury. ... Stastnys last three-point game was against the Blues on April 5 while he was with Colorado. ... The victory snapped a losing streak of seven straight regular season games for the Blues dating back last season. Wholesale Bears Jerseys . It all would have been for naught, however, had it not been for some clutch shooting in the fourth quarter by Kobe Bryant and a couple of equally critical hustle plays by Derek Fisher and Pau Gasol in the final minutes. Bears Jerseys Outlet . Then again, he really was at his home away from home. "It was nice to sleep in my own bed last night," Shields said after pitching Kansas City past the San Diego Padres 8-0 Wednesday.1. Lou Williams & Lucas Nogueira (Raptors): I like this deal by general manager Masai Ujiri. I have always been a fan of Williams, who fell out of favor in Atlanta. In the final year of his contract, the Raptors will be getting a player who can score in bunches off the bench and give his team a lift on many nights. He plays with energy and can run the point for a possession or two but is definitely more of a scoring two guard. Nogueira is a guy that is under contract overseas for another year, which is a good thing because there is no rush to bring him over and start his NBA Contractual Clock. The Raptors want to be getting him when hes more mature and prepared to give them a greater return on their yearly investment. I like the move, though. Hes a young man who can make things happen in the lane with his rebounding and shot blocking potential.  His offence is a bit raw yet but in time he should be a sound pickup. John Salmons was a good pro, but as we could all see in the playoffs, hes clearly on the downside of his career. For Salmons, this is a nice trade particularly with the fact that Williams is off the books after this upcoming season. Helps you, yet doesnt damage your salary cap long term.              2. Jason Kidd (Bucks): How about this for a Machiavellian Move on the part of J-Kidd?! You literally cant make this nonsense up. He tries to back-door GM Billy King in Brooklyn and gets shown the door for two second-round picks.  I guess you beat the Raptors in Round 1 and win one playoff game against the Heat and youre a genius with the NBAs Highest Payroll. No one else in the league would have given him the shot he got last year to coach and this is the appreciation. I feel bad for coach Larry Drew, he gets one year and then the door from his new owners. This is a tough business and theres very little honour and respect left anymore in the coaching profession, thats for sure in this case.                3. Derrick Rose (Bulls): Rose is catching a lot of flak for saying that its not his job to recruit Carmelo Anthony. He is correct; its ownership, management and the coaches jobs to do the work. When you evaluate what he said after that about Melos skills, its pretty evident to me that hes impressed with Melos game and how it would help the Bulls.  In defence of him, Im sure if management asked him to publicly make comments about Melo or behind the scenes recruit him, hed assist them. Hes a team guy. On the other hand, maybe he just deep down in his heart knows that Melo wouldnt be a great fit in their system/team identity. Well all know in the next few days if this has any impact on Melos decision with Chicago. Usually guys with the ego the size of Melo want to be recruited by everyone involved.                      4. Nets coach: Youll hear the names of Lionel Hollins, George Karl & Mark Jackson among many for this job, as their agents cash in favours with media members to float their clients names to increase their profile and possibilities. In a market like New York, with such a high profile and a small window of opporrtunity with this older team thats got the huge payroll, it actually makes lots of sense to consider each of these guys for the job. Bears Jerseys From China. The Nets will need both a strong and capable personality/coach to handle this job.  GM Billy King knows that and the fact that he was supported by ownership in the coup attempt doesnt mean hes not under tremendous pressure to win big right now. Kings has got to get the right guy and he better win lots of games next year or they might actually need a new GM next spring. I like Lionel Hollins for this job.                         5.  July 1: Here we go! Always a fun few days when free agency begins. The Big 3 and Melo set the tone and other movement will follow from a decent free agent class, when you look at the Top 10. Theres quite a drop off once you get past the Top 15 names. For Raptors fans, its very important to balance the desire to build on the 48 win season last year with the long term understanding that the Raptors as currently constructed (Even if Kyle Lowry, Patrick Patterson & Greivis Vasquez return) are still a ways away from being a legit contender to go to the NBA Finals out of the East. Particularly if the Big 3 stay in Miami, Chicago gets healthy and adds a guy like Melo and the Pacers improve and take a good look around. Other teams in the East added some pieces in the early part of the Draft that will make each win a little harder to get within the Conference. Remember back to Bryan Colangelos first season as GM with a 47 win season?  You can win too early. As crazy as that sounds, its true. Truly be honest with your team and organization and always try to evaluate yourself vs. the top four and top eight in the East as well as the top four and top eight in the West this past season. How did you stand up vs. those teams and vs. the non-playoff teams? Obviously, a nice season in the NBA is when you beat who youre capable of beating and the Raps did that with some other fun wins sprinkled in along the way to make it a neat experience.  Lots and lots of work still needs to be done for this team/organization to be a contender. Slow and steady wins the Race. Im quite confident in the patience and long-term view of Ujiri, that he wont get sucked in to believing that theyre close and try to build on a foundation that isnt there yet.   Manage the cap properly, improve internally and be patient.  The right defining move will present itself to you in the near future, youve got to be properly positioned when it shows up at your doorstep to be able to consummate the transaction. Yes, I love making the playoffs, but we all want more. So build with the idea of long term/organization vs. the 2014-15 team. You want to be in the playoffs on a yearly basis as well as - and this is what really matters - being a team with a legitimate chance to play in the Eastern Conference Finals & possibly get to the NBA Finals. Those are really hard steps to take. Obviously, if the Big Three break up, Melo goes to the Western Conference instead of the Bulls, etc. Then you reconsider that because you do have greater opportunity. But for now, big picture. It will be a fun few days to watch and follow.  Cheap Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Cheap Falcons Jerseys Cheap Ravens Jerseys Cheap Bills Jerseys Cheap Panthers Jerseys Cheap Bears Jerseys Cheap Bengals Jerseys Cheap Browns Jerseys Cheap Cowboys Jerseys Cheap Broncos Jerseys Cheap Lions Jerseys Cheap Packers Jerseys Cheap Texans Jerseys Cheap Colts Jerseys Cheap Jaguars Jerseys Cheap Chiefs Jerseys ' ' '
