LOS ANGELES -- Nothing bothered Seymon Varlamov when the Colorado Avalanche goalie shut out the Los Angeles Kings.
Enrique
Esqueda Jersey . Varlamov made 19 saves in winning his third straight
start, and Jamie McGinn provided all the offence 2:32 into overtime to lift the
Avalanche to a 1-0 victory on Saturday night. Varlamovs 12th career shutout and
first this season came one day after prosecutors in Denver filed a misdemeanour
assault charge against him following a complaint by his girlfriend that he
attacked her on Oct. 30. The six-year veteran spent a night in jail before he
was freed on $5,000 bond. "You know what? Varlys been like this since the start
of the year, and hes been very focused," Avalanche coach Patrick Roy said. "In
some ways, it was not a big surprise. Those charges were dropped (three of the
four), which is good news for him. "He made a couple of big saves at the right
moments. Hes having the support of his teammates, and his teammates want to play
hard in front of him, as well." The Avalanche, who have allowed an NHL-low nine
first-period goals, blocked nine shots during the first 20 minutes and finished
with 15. Los Angeles received a 4-minute power play with 77 seconds left in the
second period, after John Mitchell cut Willie Mitchell with a high stick, but
the Kings got only two shots during that stretch and finished 0 for 4 with the
man advantage. "Team defence is something we pride ourselves in, and we try to
take away time and space" defenceman Nate Guenin said. "Our forwards and
defencemen take pride in the defensive zone, and weve got two rock-solid goalies
back there (including Jean-Sebastien Giguere). So if we make a mistake, they are
there to bail us out." McGinns fourth goal of the season, and first game-winner,
helped the Avalanche (17-5-0) improve the best start in franchise history. They
are 15-0 when they score first. Ben Scrivens made 32 saves in his sixth straight
start for the injured Jonathan Quick. He got a bad break when a rebound trickled
into the net off the elbow of teammate Jarret Stoll after Scrivens made the
initial save on McGinn. "Im just trying to drive to the net, get a lot of wood
on it, and make sure I hit the net," McGinn said. "I thought Scrivens made a
great save on the shoulder, and it was unlucky for them that it hit their guy --
but lucky for us that it hit the back of the net. We worked hard the whole game,
so were glad we got rewarded." The Kings, coming off a 2-1 overtime loss to New
Jersey on Thursday, were shut out for the first time this season and ended an
eight-game stretch in which they recorded at least one point. Scrivens was at
his best during the second one, stopping point-blank shots by John Mitchell,
Ryan OReilly, rookie Nathan MacKinnon and two more by P.A. Parenteau after
Willie Mitchell was off for high-sticking Maxime Talbot with 7 minutes left in
regulation. "Its hard to win in this league, so you cant take anything for
granted," Scrivens said. "You have to respect Colorado. They are a good team and
they find ways to win. I dont think a lot of people at the start of the season
had them where they are in the (standings), so you have to give a ton of credit
to them." NOTES: The Kings activated LW Kyle Clifford from the injured list
after he missed six games with an upper-body injury. C Trevor Lewis was placed
on the injured list because of a lower-body injury. ... Colorados Marc-Andre
Cliche, who came in with the teams lowest winning percentage on faceoffs (34 per
cent) won seven of eight. ... The Avalanche are 5-4 since LW Alex Tanguay
sustained a knee injury on Nov. 2 against Montreal. He is the only player left
from Colorados 2001 Stanley Cup-winning team. ... MacKinnon, the first overall
pick in the June draft and the NHLs youngest player at 18, leads rookies with 65
shots. He has three goals. ... Colorado was 0 for 3 on the power play.

Cleveland Cavaliers.HONOLULU -- Fans soaking up the sun along the shores of Oahu
took home plenty of memories Friday in the Sony Open, the least of which was
Brian Stuard atop the leaderboard with this fourth straight round of 65 at
Waialae. Stuard finished the second round with a hybrid into 2 feet for eagle,
giving him a one-shot lead over Marc Leishman of Australia and Hideto Tanihara
of Japan. The best stuff came later. James Hahn, best known for his "Gangnam
Style" moves after making birdie at the raucous 16th hole at the Phoenix Open
last year, tried (and failed) for a chest-bump with his caddie after the rarest
shot in golf -- an albatross -- when he holed out from 191 yards with a 6-iron
on the par-5 ninth hole. "That was a little spontaneous, but I forgot that --
Ive got to be politically correct, right? -- but white men cant jump," said
Hahn, a South Korean-born, Cal grad and funnyman on tour. "So I got a little
air, he didnt. But it was fun. I dont think he knew I was going to chest-bump
him. But thats just what I felt like at the time." The big attraction was having
surf champion Kelly Slater in the gallery for the final hour, even though he was
there to watch a caddie. Fellow surfer Benji Weatherley is on the bag this week
for Masters champion Adam Scott, and he had a blast in front of two dozen
friends from the North Shore. But this golf is serious business, and Weatherley
showed great confidence talking Scott out of a driver on the 18th hole. "Hes
really getting the hang of it," Scott said. Scott took over from there, getting
a break on the last hole when his ball was in a partial divot. Scott was able to
take a free drop away from the grandstand, and while his chip came out strong,
it banged against the bottom of the flagstick and stopped an inch from the hole
for a tap-in birdie and a 66. Scott was only three shots behind. Weatherley was
having a blast. "Its the most fun you could ever have," he said. "I have no
nerves because for one, hes so good its embarrassing. Like every single shot is
what you see on Sports Center, especially that last one." He said this during an
interview with the Golf Channel. Meanwhile, another good tournament was shaping
uup in Hawaii.
George
Corral Mexico Jersey. Stuard was at 10-under 130. Those four straight
rounds of 65 ordinarily might be good enough to win a tournament. Except that
the first half of that streak happened on the weekend at Waialae last year. Even
so, it was enough for him to be in the lead going into the weekend. It was his
seventh straight round in the 60s at Waialae dating to Stuards first trip here
in 2010. "I think its something to do with the greens," Stuard said. "I feel
comfortable on the greens. I feel like I read them pretty well and Im able to
make putts." Leishman also made an eagle on the ninth hole, but that was in the
middle of his round. And it was part of a three-hole stretch he played in
4-under, and he made a 25-foot birdie putt on the 14th hole. It led to a 64 that
put him in a good spot going into the weekend. "Theyre the sort of things that
really turn an average round into a good one, or a good one into a great one,"
Leishman said. "It was nice to shoot 6-under and get myself right in it."
Tanihara had a 65 and will join Leishman and Stuard in the final group Saturday.
The tee times were moved up for the third round because of rain in the forecast.
Harris English had his second straight round of 66 and was two shots behind,
poised to go for his third win in his last 16 starts. "I hit it all over the
map," English said. "Yesterday, I striped it down the middle and didnt make any
putts. Today, 4-under was the lowest I could have shot." He was scrambling so
far that he didnt realize until the end of his round that he had a glove on his
left hand, and another one tucked under the back of his belt. This was not a new
craze, like Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey with gloves on both hands. English was
letting it dry out and forgot about it. Joining Scott in the group three shots
behind were Jimmy Walker and Chris Kirk, while Hudson Swafford (64),
Justin Leonard and past Sony Open champion Jerry Kelly were still in the mix at
6-under 134. Kapalua winner Zach Johnson, trying to become the first player
since Ernie Els in 2003 to sweep the Hawaii swing, had a 67 and was five shots
behind. Hahn also was 5-under after a 68.
