Twenty-four hours after a 3-2 win in Edmonton, the Vancouver Canucks (8-3) return to action when the host the Nashville Predators (6-2-2) at Rogers Arena. Blue Jays Jerseys 2019 . The Canucks have won four straight and five of their last six games. Last night, Derek Dorsett’s third period short-handed effort – his first goal in a Canucks uniform -- was the difference. Ryan Miller made 25 saves for his league-leading eighth win of the season. Miller is likely to sit and watch Eddie Lack get the start tonight. The Canucks are 0-2 in the back-half of back-to-back games this season. Those are Lack’s only starts this season (against the Lightning and in Colorado versus the Avalanche). In his only career start versus the Predators, he was a 2-0 winner on home ice on March 19. The Canucks killed off all three Oiler power plays last night and have now gone 11/11 on the penalty kill in the past four games. Overall, the Canucks PK is fifth in the league at 88.1 per cent. The power play went scoreless in three opportunities last night, but has produced at least one goal in all five home games this season and has scored seven times in 23 chances (30.4 per cent) at Rogers Arena. Bo Horvat has been recalled from the Canucks AHL-affiliate Utica Comets after a two-week conditioning stint. The 19-year-old had no points and nine shots on goal in his five games with the Comets. Horvat, Alex Burrows and Ryan Stanton all skated for an hour this morning, making it unlikely he will make his NHL debut tonight. After a torrid start with goals in four of his first five games with the Canucks, Radim Vrbata has gone cold with just one goal in his past six games – an empty-netter against Washington. With a third period chance last night, Daniel Sedin made Canucks history, passing Markus Naslund for top spot on the franchise all-time list for shots on goal. Daniel now has 2614 shots in the NHL. Tonight’s game features two of the highest-scoring rookies in the NHL a month into the new season. Canucks forward Linden Vey scored his fourth goal last night and has six points while Nashville’s Filip Forsberg has a goal and seven assists and trails only the Los Angeles Kings Tanner Pearson, who has nine points. The Preds have cooled a little after a 5-0-2 start to the season. They have won one of their last three games and are back in action tonight after a 4-3 loss in Calgary on Friday. James Neal, who scored twice against the Flames, has seven goals to start the season. Filip Forsberg and Mike Ribeiro lead the team with eight points apiece. Shea Weber is second in the NHL in average time on ice (27:47), while Roman Josi is fourth (27:23). Defenceman Anton Volchenkov was handed a four-game suspension this morning, which means Maple Ridge’s Victor Bartley will likely make his season debut on defence. Matt Cullen is celebrating his 38th-birthday today. Pekka Rinne will turn 32 tomorrow. Rinne has started five-straight games and nine of the Preds 10 contests this season. In 15 career games against the Canucks, Rinne is 5-7-1 with a 2.87 GAA and .908 save percentage. Toronto Blue Jays Pro Shop . A last-minute leveler ensured the two-time defending champion remained nine points ahead of Roma, which drew 0-0 at bitter rival Lazio in the capital derby. Blue Jays Jerseys China . -- Mississippis Andrew Ritter said his game-winning, 41-yard field goal felt good off his foot. https://www.cheapbluejays.com/ . 5 Trade Deadline is drawing closer and teams will be deciding on whether to buy or sell while figuring out which players can make the biggest difference and hold the greatest value. CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Shin-Soo Choo let his bat and his teammates do the talking for him Wednesday night. Choos two-out single in the 11th inning drove in Todd Frazier from second base, lifting the Cincinnati Reds to a 3-2 win over the San Francisco Giants. Frazier walked to lead off the 11th against left-hander Javier Lopez (1-1) and went to second on Chris Heiseys sacrifice. After Devin Mesoraco was intentionally walked, pinch hitter Ryan Hanigan popped out before Choo came up with his second hit of the game, giving the Reds three straight wins for the first time since June 10-12 against the Cubs and thrilling a sellout crowd of 40,757. The left-handed Choo almost won the game in the ninth, but his sharp one-hopper up the middle with Mesoraco on second was picked off backhanded by second baseman Tony Abreu for a groundout. "Ive been saying that hes one of the best hitters in the game, and Im sticking with that," said Frazier, whose bobblehead was one of the games attractions. "He makes adjustments. Thats what he did his last two at-bats." Choos hard-hit ball to Abreu was typical of his recent bad luck, according to manager Dusty Baker. After a hot start, Choos average was .269 going into the game. "The guy he got the hit off of is tough against left-handers," Baker said. "Hes been hitting the ball well lately with nothing to show for it." Choo was working out rafter the game and wasnt available to speak to the media. J.J. Hoover (2-5), Cincinnatis seventh pitcher of the game, struck out four batters in two innings for the win. "We were down to our last man," Baker said. "We cleared the bench trying to win that game." The spiraling Giants have lost nine of their last 10 games, including eight of nine on the current road trip, and have scored two or fewer runs in 10 of their last 13 games. They fell six games below .500 for the first time since the last day of the 2008 season, which they finished 72-90. "We had a good effort from our bullpen," manager Bruce Bochy said. "We couldnt get a hit with men in scoring position. We have too many guys scuffling. I dont know why, whether they are pressing or trying too hard. I wish I had the answer. It seems like weve been saying this for quite a while. We need someone to give us a spark and get a big hit. When you get in a rut like this, you try too hard. We were playing to win one game to get us out of it." In their first game after being held hitless by Homer Bailey on Tuesday, the Giants needed just two batters to remove any doubt. Toronto Blue Jays Gear. Abreu, San Franciscos No. 2 hitter against Tony Cingrani, reached second base with a bloop double down the right field line for the Giants first hit in 11 innings since Brandon Belt led off the fifth with a home run in an 8-1, six-inning loss to the Reds on Monday. The Reds took a 1-0 lead in the second, which Giants starter Barry Zito opened by hitting Jay Bruce with a pitch. Bruce went to third on Fraziers single to centre field and scored on Heiseys sacrifice fly. The Giants took their first lead of the series in the fifth when Blanco drew a two-out walk and Abreu followed with a 442-foot blast into the upper deck in left field on Cingranis 1-1 pitch. The homer was Abreus first since last Sept. 16 for Kansas City against the Angels. Cingrani, making his eighth start of the season and first since Johnny Cueto went on the disabled list June 29 with a strained back muscle, allowed four hits and two runs with four walks and five strikeouts in 5 2-3 innings. His walks were a single-game career high as a starter. Zito left the game after Choo and Zack Cozart led off the fifth with singles. Zito allowed seven hits and one run with a walk and three strikeouts. Heisey, on the disabled list from April 29 to June 25 with a strained right hamstring, tied the game with a 422-foot solo homer into the left field seats on a one-strike pitch from George Kontos. The homer was Heiseys third of the season and first since April 23 against the Cubs in Cincinnati. "It seemed like Heisey had no interest in the fastball," Kontos said. "It was a slider low and away. Unfortunately, it didnt bounce. He hit it off his front foot, and it carried. It is definitely frustrating." NOTES: Heisey made his first start in the field since coming off the disabled list on June 25. Heisey started at designated hitter in one game each at Texas and Oakland on Cincinnatis last road trip. ... The sellout crowd that showed up for Fraziers bobblehead night and postgame fireworks was Cincinnatis ninth of the season. The team had a club-record 15 last season. ...
