Although Semyon Varlamov hasnt played at the level he did for the Colorado Avalanche last season, the resurgent goaltender is starting to show signs of leading a potential playoff push. Mike Williams Youth Jersey . Coming off one of the best efforts in NHL history, Varlamov is likely to get another chance to continue his improved play as Colorado seeks its fourth win in five games tonight against the visiting Ottawa Senators. Viewers in the Senators region can watch the game on TSN5 at 8:30pm et/9:30pm at, or listen live on TSN Radio 1200 Ottawa. Ottawa also hopes to make a run at the playoffs, but its headed in the other direction after losing five of seven. The Senators have scuffled offensively on the road, scoring six goals while going 1-2-1 in their past four. Mike Hoffman had the teams only score on 42 shots in Tuesdays 2-1 shootout loss at Philadelphia to open a four-game trip. Its something that you have to start picking up two points, said center Kyle Turris, who has done his part with two goals and two assists over his past four games. Clarke MacArthur has two goals and four assists in his last four meetings with the Avs, including the go-ahead score in the third period of a 5-3 win Oct. 16 when the Senators faced Pickard and Berra. Varlamov was one of the main reasons the Avalanche cruised to the Central Division title in 2013-14, finishing with a franchise-record 41 victories to go along with a 2.41 goals-against average in being named a finalist for the Vezina Trophy. He struggled to continue that success in his first 15 starts this season, going 4-6-5 with a 3.21 GAA while attempting to play through a groin injury. However, hes made strides toward getting untracked by posting a 1.79 GAA in winning four of his last six outings. With 54 stops in Tuesdays 2-0 win at Chicago, Varlamov posted the second- most saves in franchise history behind Ron Tugnutts 70 with Quebec in 1991. He also became the third goalie in the expansion era with a shutout of 54 or more saves. Varlamov added the league mark for most stops in a regular-season shutout on the road since shots on goal became an official statistic in 1955-56. One things for sure, he could not lose his focus, coach Patrick Roy told the teams official website. He had plenty of work out there. Varly is one of our best players, and if we want a chance to get back in the playoff picture it is going to start from him. Roys squad, which won despite getting outshot by 30, will try to keep climbing out of the division cellar as it looks for its fifth win in eight home games. The Avs (16-16-8) have won three straight there over Ottawa (16-15-8). With Calvin Pickard demoted and Reto Berra not impressing, Varlamov is expected to get another start. He won both matchups with the Senators last season behind a 1.99 GAA. John Mitchell, who had a pair of assists against the Blackhawks, has scored in his last two versus Ottawa. Captain Gabriel Landeskog has two goals and five assists in his past four meetings, but he has one goal in his last 16 games overall. Craig Anderson, who is 4-1-2 with a 1.68 GAA in his last seven starts, is expected to get the nod for the Senators. He was 0-2-1 with a 6.35 GAA against Colorado before making 28 saves in October. Marc Methot will return to the Senators lineup for just the third time this season. It will be his 400th career game. Curtis Lazar, fresh off his gold medal at the World Juniors, will not play for Ottawa.

PETERSBURG, Fla. Melvin Ingram Chargers Jersey . General manager David Poile called signing Ribeiro a great opportunity to add a talented, experienced and creative centre Tuesday when he introduced the veteran at a news conference.

It certainly isnt a coincidence that Dwight Howard has scored at least 20 points in each game of the winning streak. Howard had 34 points and 14 rebounds to help the Rockets beat the Phoenix Suns 122-108 on Wednesday night. "Ive just been being patient and letting my teammates find me in the right spot and not rushing my shots," Howard said. The centre has been spending extra time after practice this season working on post moves with former Rockets assistant coach and general manager Carroll Dawson. "We talk about after I got my man beat, just slow down and make the shot," Howard said. "So Ive just been trying to do that." Howard also had three steals and two blocks, and James Harden added 23 points for Houston. It was the fifth game this season where Howard had at least 30 points and 10 rebounds, which is the most by a Rocket in a season since Yao Ming had six in 2007-08. Houston coach Kevin McHale is encouraged that his guards have started to get a better feel for how to get the ball inside to Howard. "I thought we missed him a couple of times, but we found him better," McHale said. "We just have to keep working on passing the ball to him, being better post feeders." The Suns cut it to four points with about 6 minutes left before Houston went on a 10-3 run to make it 113-102. The Rockets capped that run when Harden knocked down a 3-pointer, Howard blocked Goran Dragics shot, and Chandler Parsons added a layup. Phoenix missed four shots, had a turnover and a shot-clock violation in that span. Dragic had 23 points and eight assists for the Suns, who have dropped two in a row after winning five straight. They lost at home to Chicago on Tuesday night. "We didnt stop anybody," Phoenix coach Jeff Hornacek said. "We didnt stop anybody last night, either. Our defence has not been very good." Chandler Parsons and Terrrence Jones added 19 points each for Houston, which was playing the second of just three home games this month. Kellen Winslow Jersey. .
