DETROIT -- Normally a bit player, Brandon Tanev played a starring role Friday night.Tanev scored his second goal of the game and his NHL career with 1:16 left to help the Winnipeg Jets beat the Detroit Red Wings 5-3 on Friday night.The Jets rallied from a 3-2 third-period deficit.The resiliency of this group is incredible, Tanev said. We didnt stop pushing. Thats the thing.The fourth line player was undrafted, signed as a free agent and was playing his 15th game.This is my first time playing at Joe Louis Arena and to get my first goal and then that, Tanev said. Its just a great feeling.Patrik Laine, Mark Scheifele and Nikolaj Ehlers also scored for Winnipeg. Connor Hellebuyck, from the Detroit-area suburb of Commerce Township, stopped 30 shots.The players did a great job of shutting the game down in the first period, Jets coach Paul Maurice said. I really enjoyed this win from a coachs standpoint.Luke Glendening, Henrik Zetterberg and Justin Abdelkader scored for Detroit, and Petr Mrazek made 26 saves. The Red Wings are 0-3-1 in their last four to drop to 6-5-1.Youve got to play a complete game in this league. Players are too good and will make you pay if you make mistakes and turn the pucks over, Abdelkader said. Weve got to be better that way but theres lots of things to build off of the last few games. Its a long season. Well be better and get ready for Sunday (when the Red Wings host the Edmonton Oilers).It was Gordie Howe night at Joe Louis Arena. The family of the late Hall of Famer spoke to the media before the game. Howe died on June 10 at the age of 88. His son, Mark Howe, is Detroits director of pro scouting. The first 5,000 fans received Gordie Howe statue replicas.Mark and his siblings, Marty, Murray and Cathy dropped the puck for the ceremonial opening faceoff.Tanev scored the winner on a breakaway, beating Mrazek on the glove side.Ehlers added an empty-net goal in the last minute. It was his third goal.Tanevs first goal, with 7:36 left, tied it at 3.After he beat Mrazek under the crossbar from in close, the puck went in and out so fast play continued for about a minute. After a stoppage, the play was reviewed and called a goal.Abdelkader gave Detroit a 3-2 lead 9:12 into the third period.Scheifele tied it at 2 earlier in the third period. It was his sixth goal.I thought we started really well. Even in the second it felt like we carried the play at times. Then in the third for whatever reason, I thought we fell back a little bit, said Detroit defenseman Niklas Kronwall, who made his season debut after being bothered by a sore knee, In saying that, I dont know how many great scoring chances they had. But they came out winning. Two points are what you need and we didnt get that.Zetterberg gave the Red Wings a 2-1 lead 9:40 into the second period. He batted the rebound of Tomas Tatars shot out of the air and into the net.The goal was originally waved off because it was first indicated that Zetterbergs stick was higher than the crossbar. But referees Chris Lee and Ghislain Hebert and linesmen Tim Nowak and Ryan Galloway huddled and immediately reversed the call. The call of a goal was then upheld by the NHL Situation Room in Toronto.Glendening gave Detroit a 1-0 lead 3:04 into the game when he deflected Dan DeKeysers shot/pass from the left point past Hellebuyck. It was Glendenings first goal of the season.Laine tied it at 1 with 4:30 left in the first period. He leads NHL rookies with seven goals.NOTE: Detroit D Niklas Kronwall made his season debut. He missed the first 11 games of the season because of knee pain. ... Winnipeg was without LW Drew Stafford (upper body), D Tyler Myers (lower body) and D Mark Stuart (lower body). ... The Red Wings were missing LW Thomas Vanek (hip). ... It was the second of back-to-back games for the Jets. They lost 4-3 in overtime to the Washington Capitals on the road Thursday night.UP NEXTJets: Visit New York Rangers on Sunday.Red Wings: Host Edmonton Oilers on Sunday.Jim Paek Jersey .C. -- Manny Malhotra had two goals and an assist, leading the Carolina Hurricanes to a 6-3 win over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday. Tomas Sandstrom Jersey .C. -- When North Carolina freshman Ryan Switzer reported to training camp in August he was a little miffed to learn he was third on the depth chart at punt returner. https://www.cheappenguinsjersey.com/311q-rick-macleish-jersey-penguins.html . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. Mark Recchi Jersey . "I wrote 36 on my sheet at the beginning of the game," the Cincinnati coach said, referring the yard line the ball would need to be snapped from. Andy Bathgate Jersey . The 29-year-old Baines has established himself as one of the top attacking full backs in the country and was the subject of two bids from United during the last off-season. Everton manager Roberto Martinez says that keeping Baines at the club is a "massive boost and exciting for the future" because he brings "maturity and football knowledge in a very specialized position on the pitch" and an "infectious and positive influence to the rest of the squad.LYON, France -- Wales ended its memorable run at the European Championship tired, full of pride and serenaded by devoted fans.When the Welsh national anthem, Land of My Fathers, reverberated one more time long after the final whistle, the Portugal fans who stayed after their teams 2-0 victory in the semifinals applauded the sea of red shirts that still filled the other end of the stadium in Lyon.Im prouder of this team than any team Ive ever been involved in, because I know what theyve sacrificed to get to this stage, Wales coach Chris Coleman said. Ive told them how proud I am of them, and the nation is proud of them.Wales goes home having won four games at Euro 2016, and topped its group. A Portugal team that placed third in its group, and won in 90 minutes for the first time on Wednesday, goes on to the final.Weve done plenty of winning, now its our turn to lose. Its not a nice feeling, said Coleman, adding that he hoped Portugal went on to win the title on Sunday, against France or Germany.Cristiano Ronaldo added to the mutual admiration.Wales had been a shining star here, they were the revelation team, said the Portugal forward, who scored the opening goal early in the second half, and then provided the assist for Nanis strike three minutes later.We just lost our concentration just for five minutes, Coleman acknowledged. Youre going to get punished. And unfortunately they capitalized on that.We were a little bit tired tonight, the coach said, refusing to blame the loss of two key players to suuspensions.dddddddddddd. Influential midfielder Aaron Ramsey and defender Ben Davies each collected second yellow cards of the tournament in the 3-1 win over Belgium in the quarterfinals.Still, the replacements were excellent in the first half, especially James Collins in place of Davies. The ginger-bearded, shaven-headed Collins had a Viking-like look that called to mind Icelands robust spirit at Euro 2016.Collins had physically dominated Ronaldo in the air early on, while Andy King began by filling the Ramsey role as an attacking threat deep in Portugals penalty area while doing tidy defensive duties.The absence of Davies, however, pushed James Chester over to the left side of a three-man central defense -- and that is where Ronaldo found space to hurt Wales.Wales star Gareth Bale responded by throwing himself more vigorously into the challenge, earning a late yellow card for a high boot into the face of Portugal defender Cedric Soares.He was trying everything to get us back into the game, Coleman said of his talisman player with the team-first ethic.Coleman believes Wales broke through a psychological barrier, playing at a first tournament in 58 years. Now he wants his players to show the same hunger and desire to qualify for the 2018 World Cup from a group that includes Austria and Ireland.I think we will give the World Cup campaign a hell of a crack, the coach said.
