NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Predators earned a rare shootout win.Ryan Ellis scored the decisive goal in the shootout to give Nashville a 4-3 victory over the Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday night.Mike Ribeiro, Ellis, and James Neal scored in regulation for Nashville, winners of two of three.In the tiebreaker, Ellis drove left before stretching to the right to slip the puck between Arizona goaltender Devan Dubnyk and the right post.I got a couple of moves in my bag, and that was just one of them, Ellis said. If it works, it works, if it doesnt, it doesnt. Tonight we were fortunate that it did.Nashville won just two of 11 shootouts last season and lost its only previous one of this season.Ellis also had two assists in the victory.Rob Klinkhammer, Keith Yandle, and Martin Erat scored for Arizona. The Coyotes have lost two straight.Following a 6-1 home loss Saturday to St. Louis, Arizona coach Dave Tippett was pleased with Tuesdays effort.We were looking for a response from our team, and we certainly got it, Tippett said. I thought Dubnyk played well in goal for us but our whole team competed in the areas that we wanted to a lot better.Klinkhammer scored the games first goal at 3:21 of the opening period.David Moss carried the puck into the Nashville zone on the right side before sending a pass to an unchecked Klinkhammer who was skating through the slot and had an easy tap-in for his second of the season.Ribeiro tied the game at 12:05 of the first at the tail end of a rare 4-on-1 rush off of an assist from Ellis. Ribeiro was trying to make a pass, but the puck slipped by Dubnyk.I was actually trying to pass and I kind of fanned on it, Ribeiro said. At the beginning, it was a 2-on-1 for me and I was going to try and pass to James and when I got inside the blue line, I saw two righties coming, so it was a 4-on-1. I was lucky on the goal, but we will take any goal.In the off-season, the Coyotes bought out the remaining three years of the four-year, $22 million deal he signed prior to the start of last season. He then signed a one-year contract with the Predators for just over $1 million.Ellis gave Nashville its first lead of the game at 5:12 of the middle frame.Just three seconds after a penalty to Arizonas Brandon McMillan expired, Ellis beat Dubnyk to the short side with a wrist shot from the top of the right circle.Dubnyk made 23 saves in regulation in overtime. He is 1-0-1 on the young season.I want to give them that feeling that I am going to be solid for them back there, he said. The more games I am able to play, then obviously they will get a feel for me. It makes it easier for me when the guys play like that.Dubnyk had a brief stint in Nashville last season after the Predators acquired him in a trade with the Edmonton Oilers. With Nashville, Dubnyk had a record of 0-1-1, allowing nine goals against in the two games played. Nashville later traded him to the Montreal Canadiens.Yandle tied the game at 2 at 11:18 of the second.Just three seconds after Nashvilles Calle Jarnkrok was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct, Yandle collected Antoine Vermettes faceoff win and beat Nashville goaltender Pekka Rinne with a wrist shot high to the glove side.Erat and Neal traded goals at 7:42 and 8:03 of the third respectively.Erat, a longtime Predator, sits second in Nashville franchise history in games played and goals scored.The game tonight had peaks and valleys in it for us, but yet they continued to push. Nashville coach Peter Laviolette said. I thought the goal to get us back to 3-3 really was a big important goal because at that point the steam could leave the building and leave everybody.Notes: Klinkhammers goal was the first time Arizona scored first in a game this season. ... Yandle played his 500th career NHL game. ... Arizona played its first road game of the season. ... Ribeiro has points in four consecutive games. Morten Andersen Youth Jersey .

Thats what were preparing for. Were preparing for the best. He can run the zone-read play and you better be conscious of the guy coming off the disconnect.Its different than Tony Romo. When Tony Romo turns and hands the ball off to DeMarco Murray, youre not worried about Tony running out the backside. When RG3 turns and hands the ball off, you better be worried about him running out the backside.Griffin ran for 815 yards, threw for 3,200 yards and 20 touchdowns to only five interceptions in a sensational rookie season in 2012 when he led the Redskins to an NFC East title. But he tore the ACL in his right knee in a playoff loss that year and dislocated his left ankle earlier this season.He hasnt been the same player since his injuries and was benched by coach Jay Gruden a few weeks ago. The Redskins are 4-14 in games Griffin has started since opening 2013 with a home loss to Philadelphia in Kellys NFL debut.Still, the Eagles are wary of Griffin.If youre not aware of where RG3 is, he can hurt you with his legs and his arm, Kelly said. We got to be really sharp in our contain when we rush the quarterback because hes a different element than weve seen except for Russell Wilson and you saw what happeened to us.dddddddddddd. I thought we did a really good job at times in defending Seattle, and then all of a sudden Russell just extended plays and continued to make things happen.Griffin is 2-2 against the Eagles with a 101.4 passer rating, 10 TD passes and two interceptions in those four games.Last week, he looked a lot more confident and looser than earlier in the year, Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins said. It looks like the time off has done his legs a lot of good. Hes moving pretty well, has a lot more confidence in his throws. You can tell hes been a lot more decisive.The Eagles are desperate to keep their playoff hopes alive after consecutive homes losses to Seattle and Dallas. They can finish 11-5 and miss the playoffs unless the Cowboys lose one game or the Packers or Lions or Seahawks lose two.Meanwhile, the Redskins are playing the spoiler role in another miserable season. Theyre heading toward their ninth last-place finish since owner Dan Snyder bought the team in 1999.It doesnt mean the Eagles will take the Redskins lightly.The pressures kind of off, Jenkins said. (Griffin) doesnt have a lot to lose. He actually looks better. We expect to get his best. This is an opportunity at the end of the year for him to put some good tape out there and finish on a good note.And perhaps impress a potential new team. Considering Nick Foles and Mark Sanchez were inconsistent this year, Kelly could have interest in bringing Griffin to Philadelphia.Thats a topic for the off-season.That kid is athletic as heck and he can run really, really well, Kelly said.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.organd AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Rob Maaddi on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP_RobMaaddi ' ' '
