NASHVILLE -- The Philadelphia Flyers have started their six-game, 13-day road trip off in winning style even if they needed more than overtime to pull out the victory. Vincent Lecavalier scored the only goal in the shootout, and the Flyers edged the Nashville Predators 3-2 Saturday night for their second straight win. Claude Giroux scored in the first period, and Sean Couturiers goal at 13:06 of the third tied it up at 2-2 to help the Flyers reach the shootout. "Its huge to start off the road trip the right way," Couturier said. "I think we deserved the win by battling hard, not quitting and coming back." Steve Mason made 34 saves and stopped Craig Smith, Matt Hendricks and Matt Cullen in the shootout for the second win in as many days. "Its nice to come out on top in one of these games," Mason said. "Weve struggled in tight situations like this before. Being able to come out and get the extra two points is huge." Mike Fisher and Colin Wilson each scored for Nashville, which has lost two straight. "We should have won the hockey game, but we didnt," Nashville coach Barry Trotz said. "We couldnt hold onto the lead. Their one play, they capitalized on it, got it tied up and I thought Mason came up with some pretty big saves for them." The Predators were playing their fourth game in six nights and without captain Shea Weber who is day to day with an eye injury after taking a puck to the face in Thursday nights 3-0 loss to the Oilers. Their most experienced defenceman on the ice was Roman Josi with 116 career NHL games. Mason gave the Flyers a chance to win in the shootout. He had a big save inside the final 30 seconds of regulation when Seth Jones passed to David Legwand for a shot in front. In overtime, Wilson hit a post at 2:30, and Mason stopped him on a breakaway with about 30 seconds left. Matt Read was wide on a shot on Nashville goalie Marek Mazanec during the extra period. In the shootout, Lecavalier was the first shooter for the Flyers and beat Mazanec with a forehand. Giroux was stopped at the post, but the Flyers didnt need a third shooter when Cullen missed. Not only did Nashville not have its leading goal-scorer in Weber, but defenceman Kevin Klein also was out for the Predators with a lower body injury, their team leader with 58 blocked shots. Goalie Pekka Rinne also hasnt played since Oct. 24 because of an infected hip. "When you lose your two All Stars, everybody has to pick up the slack, they say it, but I think everybody becomes a little bit more aware," Wilson said. "Everybody is taking care of the D zone and being more detailed. I think we saw that tonight the way everybody was playing and playing as a unit." The Flyers missed a prime chance at scoring on their lone power play of the first period when a shot slipped under Mazanec and was lying just near the line only to be poked away by Philadelphia forward Jakub Voracek. The Flyers went 0-for-3 with the man advantage but killed off five power plays. "I didnt think we were very sharp, but they hung in there, they battled and they won a game," Flyers coach Craig Berube said. "A win is a win. The team showed character tonight, and thats what is important. But we have got some things that need to be ironed out." A couple of minutes after the power play ended, the Flyers took advantage of a Nashville turnover as Giroux scored on a slap shot that went up into the net over Mazanec at 16:49. The Predators answered right back a minute later when Fishers snap shot from the left circle beat Mason five-hole. Giroux hit the post during the Flyers second power play early in the third period, and Nashville killed it off. Then Wilson put a backhand under Masons left leg at 5:05 to put Nashville ahead 2-1. Couturier tied it up when Andrej Meszaros found him in front at 13:06. Notes: The Flyers are 1-1 in the shootout this season and 11-3-1 when scoring first. ... Fisher has three goals in four games, and Nashville is 4-2-0 when he scores this season. ... Wilsons goal was the 50th of his career. ... Cullen played his 1,100th career game. . “The shootout, theres nothing wrong with it, I think its an exciting part of the game but its just one small aspect,” said Chicago Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman. “Its a skill exhibition. If you can get it back closer to regular hockey and have it decided that way; that would be my preference.” “I dont think its a knock on the shootout, I think more of the managers would like to see it end in overtime,” added Washington Capitals GM George McPhee. .

The Missouri Tigers Defensive End and SEC Defensive player of the year is eligible for the upcoming NFL draft in May.Two days after Teddy Bridgewaters underwhelming performance at his Pro Day, fellow top QB prospect Blake Bortles impressed at his. Bortles, one of three quarterbacks vying to be the first taken in the NFL Draft in May alongside Bridgewater and Johnny Manziel, helped his cause by impressing scouts with a clean performance at the UCF Pro Day Wednesday, according to reports. The 22-year-old UCF product looked good in throwing 65 scripted passes; so much so that many draftniks believe Bortless is very much in the conversation to be taken first overall.dddddddddddd Bortles big day comes on the heels of Bridgewater struggling during his audition Monday. Reports said Bridgewater was inaccurate on a lot of throws and according to respected draftnik Mike Mayock of NFL Network, was “average at best.” Part of Bridgewaters problem may have been that he shed the glove he normally wears on his throwing hand, something he said he wont do any more moving forward.
