VANCOUVER -- The goals were bound to come for defending scoring champion Daniel Sedin. nfl jerseys china . The Swedish sniper scored his fifth career hat trick as the Vancouver Canucks beat the Colorado Avalanche 6-0 Tuesday night. Sedin now has six goals in his last four games, and 12 on the season. "Its going to happen if you keep shooting and keep creating," said Sedin, whose line consisting of twin brother Henrik and Alex Burrows combined for eight points. He hadnt scored for eight games and had been passed in goals by Henrik -- normally the set-up man -- prior to his outburst. "Thats the way a season goes," Daniel Sedin said. "Its up and down and youre going to have some games when youre not scoring and some games when the pucks are going in." Right now, the pucks are going in for the Canucks, who won for the seventh time in eight games. The victory came on a night when the were outshot 33-23, goalie Roberto Luongo was felled by a shot and couldnt finish and forward David Booth left with what could be a serious knee injury. Second-line winger Chris Higgins also missed the game with a foot infection, but the Canucks showed resolve. "This is what happens when youre on a roll," said Sedin, who had career bests of 41 goals and 104 points last season. "Were a deep team so we can have a few injuries. I know its top guys on this team (who were injured) but there are guys who can come in and do great jobs. "When we play our best were going to be in games. It doesnt matter whos in the lineup." Jannik Hansen helped fill in for the injured forwards, scoring twice to match his career-high nine goals. "You see guys jump around in the lineup and theres no misstep," said Hansen, who has spent time on the Canucks first three lines this season. "Everybody kind of knows where each other is and who we are playing with. So it doesnt matter who you are thrown in with." Coach Alain Vigneault admired the artistry of his top line. "Hanks (Henrik Sedins) line tonight on a couple of occasions did things on the ice that are just amazing, they make plays the average player cant make or even think of making," he said. Vancouver broke the game open with four goals in a 4:25 span in the third period. Alex Edlers 6-0 goal chased Semyon Varlamov, who was making his seventh consecutive start in front of veteran J.S. Giguere. In addition to Booths injury, the Canucks had a scary moment when Luongo was caught under his mask by a Gabriel Landeskog slapshot from the faceoff circle. "I just had trouble breathing for a few seconds there and felt fine afterwards," said Luongo, who had a red welt on the right side of the neck after the game. "Just a little bit light-headed the rest of the way." Luongo had a 13-save shutout going when he was injured in the second period and watched from the bench as Cory Schneider stoned the Avalanche the rest of the way. "Thats why we got the closer in there," Luongo said of Schneider, who had to be sharp shortly after he entered the game when Colorado had a 44-second two-man advantage. Schneider was nursing a 1-0 lead and was tested as soon as he came off the bench. "I kind of got pressed into action and we were sort of treading water," said Schneider, who blanked the Avalanche 3-0 on Nov. 13 in Denver. "Sometimes its almost a good thing, get in there and face a few shots right away." The Canucks (16-10-1) snapped a three-game Colorado win streak. It was their 13th straight game against the Avalanche (13-14-1) without a regulation loss. "They did a great job taking our shots away (on the five-on-three power play)," said Colorado defenceman Kyle Quincey. "Youve got to tip your hat to them -- you give them any chance and theyll score. They picked us apart." Coach Joe Sacco said the difference was failing to capitalize on that two-man advantage or early in the game when the Avalanche held a 9-1 edge in shots. "It certainly didnt feel like a 6-0 game from our side," Sacco said. "Usually when you let good teams like this hang around like that theyll make the plays." Booth was injured on a knee-on-knee hit by Kevin Porter who received a major penalty and a game misconduct. The Canuck forward had to be assisted to the locker-room and will have an MRI to determine the damage to his right knee. Vigneault said Higgins, who watched the game from the press box with his leg elevated, will accompany the Canucks on their five-game road trip which begins Thursday in Montreal. "The pills are working (on the infection)," Vigneault said. "Right now what needs to happen is where they cut his foot open, that needs to close."

His name at the top of the leaderboard.VANCOUVER -- Slotback Geroy Simon had over 100 receiving yards, including a 33-yard touchdown catch, as the B.C. Lions said goodbye to Empire Field with a convincing 28-6 win over the Toronto Argonauts in CFL action Saturday. Simons touchdown was his 88th as a Lion, a franchise record. The Lions dominated the game even more than the final score suggested. Quarterback Travis Lulay shredded the Toronto secondary with passes, while running back Andrew Harris ripped holes through the Argonaut line. In the third quarter Lulay showed his running skills, taking off on a 53-yard dash that set up a field goal. The B.C. defence also showed its claws, making life difficult for Toronto quarterback Steven Jyles in his first start of the season. Jyles was sacked four times, had passes knocked down, and had to scramble for his life several times. B.C.s defence prevented Toronto from scoring an offensive touchdown for the second consecutive game. The Lions have not allowed an offensive touchdown in three games. About the only thing the Lions couldnt do was score touchdowns. Tim Brown scored on a one-yard run in the second quarter. Several promising drives stalled, resulted in Paul McCallum kicking field goals of 38, 32, 28 and 23 yards. Noel Prefontaine kicked field goals of 21 and 16 yards for the Argos. After a slow start the Lions have won four of their last five games and improved their record to 4-6. Toronto dropped to 2-8. Jyles was given the start after the Argos released Cleo Lemon earlier in the week. For most of the first half Jyles looked exactly like he was, a quarterback returning to action after missing the first nine games of the season with a shoulder injury. He struggled to connect with his receivers and looked nervous in the pocket, fumbling once. jerseys from china. Jyles looked more confident in the second half. His passes became more accurate and he used his running skills to make first downs. A sellout crowd of 25,623 basked in the sunshine to watch the last football game played at Empire Field. The Lions have used the temporary facility built on the Pacific National Exhibition grounds for the last 15 months while B.C. Place underwent $565 million in renovations. Many of the players wont be sad to leave Empire Field, where the dressing rooms were temporary trailers and the Lions posted a 5-9 record. The Lions led 15-0 at half time and the score flattered the Argonauts. B.C. squandered the chance of two touchdowns. Simon fumbled on the one-yard line on the opening drive and Lulay was intercepted in the end zone in the second quarter. It was Toronto defensive back Evan McCollough who recovered the fumble and stepped in front of Akeem Foster for the pick. The Argos made a strange decision in the second quarter. Facing a third and 10, Prefontaine lined up to punt. Instead, he elected to throw a pass down field. That was intercepted by the Lions Marco Iannuzzi, setting up a field goal. The Lions first game at B.C. Place Stadium is Sept. 30 against the Edmonton Eskimos. Notes: There was a moment of silence before the game and the U.S. anthem was sang to remember the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11. ...Three of the Lions losses this year have been by five points or less. ...The 2000 Lions started the season 3-6 but went on to win the Grey Cup. ...The Lions next two games are on the road, next Saturday in Edmonton then Sept. 24 in Saskatchewan.
