IMATRA, Finland -- A strong third period left Canada still unbeaten at the world under-18 hockey championship. Kjøpe Air Max . Ryan Gropp, Travis Konecny and Jared McCann scored third-period goals to lead Canada to a 5-2 win over Germany on Saturday. Gropp broke a 2-2 tie at 14:24 of the third before Konecny put the defending champions ahead 4-2 at 16:18. McCann rounded out the scoring with 35 seconds remaining to play as Canada outshot Germany 20-5 in the final frame. "It was certainly a strong third period for us, it was nice to finish that way and come out with the win," said Canadian team coach Kevin Dineen. "Im going to take a little bit of responsibility for our first couple of periods because I dont think I prepared our team properly for a very stiff game against Germany. "I thought they played extremely well and I thought it took us a long time to realize we were in for a tough hockey game . . . it was an extremely even game until the end." Daniel Audette and Conner Bleackley also scored for Canada (2-0), which opened the tournament with a 3-1 victory over Sweden on Thursday. And Dineen, who guided Canadas womens team to Olympic gold in Sochi, Russia, felt that strong start mayve contributed to his teams play through two periods against Germany. "We played extremely well and extremely hard against Sweden to start the tournament," Dineen said. "I think we all had it in the back of our heads that Germany was going to be a little bit of an easy game . . . and it almost took us 40 minutes to get our straps going." Julio Billia stopped 21 shots for Canada, which outshot Germany 42-23 overall. Dineen and his players dont have much time to relish their latest win. Canada faces Slovakia on Sunday. "Thats really tournament hockey, you have to understand that things come fast and furious here," Dineen said. "You look at some things in the rear-view mirror and take some quick lessons. Well have a much better challenge (versus Slovakia). "I thought (against Germany) we were extremely spread out, we were all over the ice and trying to make special plays instead of having support, whether it be on offence or defence. I think theres good lessons for us to learn." Air Max Norge Nettbutikk .40 metres at the Drake Relays. Drouin, from Corunna, Ont., bested his own record of 2.38 metres set in Aug.

PETERSBURG, Fla. - It took the Tampa Bay Rays 11 innings into the third game of the series to come through with a big hit against the Oakland Athletics. Sean Rodriguez hit a three-run home run with two out in the 11th Thursday to lift the Rays to a 5-2 victory that ended their four-game losing streak — and Oaklands five-game winning streak. "I wouldnt say it would have been the end of the world if wed have lost that one, but the morale would have been a little lower," said Alex Cobb, who pitched 6 2-3 shutout innings in his first start since April 12. "It was a huge win for us. For Roddy to go off in that fashion and deliver that to us is a big boost that is very welcome." Rodriguezs team-leading fifth homer came off Luke Gregerson after Desmond Jennings two-out single had tied it against Dan Otero (4-1). "It was obviously good to get a win after the fact that we were able to go that many innings with the pitchers throwing as well as they did," Rodriguez said. Yeonis Cespedes sacrifice fly had given the As a 2-1 lead in the top of the 11th. Cespedes also drove in the first Oakland run with an RBI double in the ninth off Rays closer Grant Balfour. Josh Lueke (1-2) got the win after one inning of relief for the Rays, who had scored only four runs during their four-game losing streak. "It was great for our guys to do that," said manager Joe Maddon. "We needed some kind of a boost all night and we were foiled in our attempts." The Athletics lost for only the second time in 13 games. "Its always nice to win a series, but when youve won two and youre ahead, not being able to close it out is a little disappointing," said As manager Bob Melvin. &"But you pick up and go on to tomorrow.

Cobb gave up three hits and two walks while striking out six after spending 35 days on the disabled list with a strained left oblique. The right-hander tied a franchise record with his third straight scoreless start. "It felt like for a while there might not be any runs scored," Melvin said. "Youve just got to wait out the starting pitcher and try to get to the bullpen." The Rays final out in the ninth came when Jennings was caught stealing. The original call of safe was overturned by a replay challenge that took two minutes and 13 seconds.
