Vapormax Pas Cher France .Dustin Byfuglien had a goal and an assist for the Jets and at points in the night looked to be in a different gear compared to everyone else in a 5-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs.Its just confidence, knowing that I can protect the puck and find time and room for somebody else to get open and hopefully they can make it happen afterwards, Byfuglien said when asked about his performance.Byfuglien assisted on the Jets (20-12-7) first goal of the game— which was scored by T.J Galiardi— and was at it again, leading the Leafs on wild goose chase before Ben Chiarot let one go from the point that was tipped by Matt Halischuk to make it 2-1.Byfuglien then scored his ninth of the season with just under 10 minutes left in the second to put the Jets up 3-1.Im playing pretty good. Im just running with what Ive got right now and enjoying every minute of it.Leafs (21-16-3) captain Dion Phaneuf said Byfugliens goal turned the tide in the game.We got beat on a night where we started the game the way we would have liked to start, said Phaneuf.Mike Santorelli opened the scoring for Toronto early in the second after batting the puck out of the air to make it 1-0.We (then) seemed to have breakdown after break down and the next thing its 3-1 for them and the momentum has shifted, said Phaneuf.The Leafs were certainly feeling the effects at the end of a gruelling, season-high seven-game road trip, in which they finished with just two wins.This has been a terrible trip for our team, said Phaneuf.We didnt get nearly the results we wanted or needed and we got to go home and regroup because this has been a not a very good trip all-around.Its been a busy week with a lot of travel and some tough teams on the road, Leafs goaltender James Reimer added. Tonight, maybe we were a little tired, but I dont want to give that as an excuse. We are all professionals and we got to find a way to win these games when we are tired.Phaneuf agreed with his netminder.I dont think we are in the position to use our schedule as our excuse, he said.Somewhat lost in the mix of Byfugliens fine play was the milestone hit by his defensive partner Ben Chariot.Chiarot, the rookie defenceman who started the year with the Jets AHL affiliate in St. Johns, scored his first career NHL goal.Im obviously pretty happy about it, said Chiarot. That was one of the keys in our game plan tonight, getting pucks to the net. It was a great faceoff by Little there and I just put it on net.Im proud of him, hes really earned it, said Byfuglien. Hes had to go through a lot playing with me.Michael Hutchinson was solid when called upon for the Jets, making 20 saves for his 10th win of the season.

Both are home runs. Cruz hit a two-run homer and the first-place Baltimore Orioles beat the Royals 2-1 on Thursday night to snap a four-game losing streak. Cruz homered in the fourth after Chris Davis drew a walk to lead off the inning. It was Cruzs 12th home run, which is second in the American League to the 15 of Chicago White Sox rookie Jose Abreu. Cruzs 35 RBIs are tied for second in the AL. "Hes one of the best power hitters in the American League over the past five or six years," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "Hes hit in a good hitters park in Texas, but hes got power to all fields." Wei-Yin Chen (5-2) limited the Royals to one run and seven hits over 5 1-3 innings with one walk and one strikeout. Chen, who is 5-1 in his past seven starts, was removed in the sixth after Salvador Perez walked and Alex Gordon singled with one out. Darren ODay replaced Chen and struck out Danny Valencia and retried Johnny Giavotella on a fly to right. Royals rookie right-hander Yordano Ventura (2-3) struck out nine and walked one in 6 1-3 innings, allowing two runs and seven hits. After Cruzs home run, Ventura retired the next 10 batters, striking out seven, including six straight at one stretch. "He made a mistake to Nelson Cruz and it wasnt even a mistake," Yost said. "I think he threw a good fastball to Nelson. It was up and over the middle of the plate and he ambushed it." Cruz hit the first pitch out to right-centre from Ventura, who has a fastball that routinely hits triple digits on radar guns. "We know hes got a great fastball," Cruz said. "He can get you quick. Hes got great stuff. It was one of those at-bats that I got what I was looking for. We were trying to be aggressive and he was throwing a lot of first-pitch fastballs. I was looking for a fastball." With a northwest wind blowing 15 mph and gusting up to 28, it was less than ideal conditions to hit a homme run. Vente Air Max Tn Pas Cher. . "You could have made some money off me if youd have bet me that somebody could have gotten a ball out of here tonight," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. Valencias sacrifice fly with the bases loaded in the fourth scored Eric Hosmer for the only run off Chen. "Ventura pitched great," Giavotella said. "We just couldnt back him up with any runs." Left-hander Zach Britton, who had not allowed a run in 7 1-3 innings in his past eight appearances, worked a perfect ninth for his first major league save. Showalter elected to go to Britton after closer Tommy Hunter blew his past two save chances. "Guys graduate," Showalter said. "It was a good start and its good to know that if we need him for a given night hell be ready. Well see how it goes from here." The Royals did not have a baserunner off four Baltimore relievers, who retired 11 straight. "Our pitchers did a really good job and we really needed this win," Cruz said. "Anytime you can win a game by one run its huge. We feel like we can get something going." The Orioles, who went 1 for 9 with runners in scoring position, threatened in the seventh and eighth innings, but came away empty. Gordon, a three-time Gold Glove Award winner, threw out J.J. Hardy at the plate to end the seventh for his fourth outfield assist this season and his 58th since moving to the outfield in 2011. Hardy attempted to score from second on Nick Markakis single. Manny Machado and Adam Jones led off the Orioles eighth with singles off Louis Coleman, the third Kansas City pitcher. Kelvin Herrera replaced Coleman and struck out Davis and Cruz and retired Steve Clevenger on a grounder to strand the runners.
