(SportsNetwork. Pirates Josh Harrison Jersey .com) - Thanks to a red-hot offense, the St. Louis Blues take aim at a fourth straight victory on Saturday night in a road matchup with the Colorado Avalanche. The Blues have netted 14 goals over their past three wins, getting a big game from Alexander Steen on Thursday in his return to the lineup. Steen had two goals and an assist in a 6-3 victory over the New York Islanders. Steen had missed the past two games with a lower-body injury and provided an immediate spark. His second tally ignited a four-goal third period that carried the Blues to their seventh victory in 10 games. Steen spent time in Thursdays game skating with David Backes and T.J. Oshie, who had a goal and two assists. I thought (Steen) was real good. I thought that line was real good. Set the tempo early in the game. Set the tempo in the third period, said St. Louis head coach Ken Hitchcock. Barret Jackman added a goal and an assist, while Paul Stastny and Jade Schwartz scored to back Jake Allens 25 saves. St. Louis also saw the return of defenseman Jay Bouwmeester from a groin injury that had held him out of the past eight games. The Blues are looking for their longest winning streak since a season-high seven-game run from Oct. 25-Nov. 6, while the Avalanche hope to make it two wins in a row following a 4-3 shootout win over the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday. Nathan MacKinnon and Matt Duchene scored on Colorados first two chances in the shootout after Jarome Iginla and Ryan OReilly scored late to tie the game for the Avs. OReillys game-tying goal came with 2:42 left in regulation. We didnt let some of the bad breaks deflate us and we kept going until the end, said Duchene, who also had a goal and an assist in regulation. Calvin Pickard made 30 saves, including two huge stops in overtime, before shutting out Winnipeg in the shootout, helping Colorado snap a four-game losing streak (0-3-1). It was exciting. We came back and it would have been nice to win that and I just wanted to be patient, said Pickard. I know guys like MacKinnon and Duchene have some silky hands and they made a couple of nice goals there. I just wanted to be patient and make those saves. The Avalanche will hope for some more big saves tonight seeing as the Blues have won five of the past six meetings overall. That includes a 3-2 shootout victory at home on Nov. 1 in the first of five meetings this season. Joakim Lindstrom had a goal in the second round of the shootout that decided things, while Vladimir Tarasenko scored twice in regulation. OReilly and MacKinnon both had a goal and an assist for the Avs, though OReilly joined Gabriel Landeskog and Duchene as Colorado skaters who failed to convert in the shootout.

The White Sox said Wednesday they acquired left-handed pitching prospect Sean Bierman and infielder Ben Kline, who both played at Class A this season. The White Sox dealt Crain to Tampa Bay on July 29.ZURICH, Switzerland -- It will be Cristiano Ronaldo vs. Zlatan Ibrahimovic for a place at the World Cup. Portugal and Sweden were the first two teams drawn by FIFA on Monday for the European playoffs, though the pairing was talked about as a clash of superstar forwards in a two-leg series scheduled for Nov. 15 and 19. "World-class players like Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic, they do something extra to change the game," Sweden coach Erik Hamren said. "I am pleased we have one, too. But we need our team to be really good." Also, France will play Ukraine, with the return game in Paris; Greece was paired with Romania; and Iceland, the lowest ranked of the eight teams at No. 46 in the world, will host the first leg against Croatia, which fired its coach last week. The four winners will complete Europes 13 entries in the 32-team World Cup draw on Dec. 6 in Salvador, Brazil. Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic were consigned to the playoffs after their teams finished second in their qualifying groups behind Russia and Germany, respectively. "They will be evenly balanced and very competitive games," Portugal coach Paulo Bento said. "Ibrahimovic is an imposing figure, but the Swedes are more than that, they are good collectively." Portugal also had to advance to the 2010 World Cup through a playoff, after twice drawing 0-0 with Sweden in the group. France, the 2006 World Cup runner-up, also makes its second straight trip to the playoffs after defending champion Spain won its group. Four years ago, a notorious handball by Thierry Henry helped France beat Ireland in extra time. "(Ukraine) dont concede many goals and it will be a long away trip for us," France coach Didiier Deschamps said. Pirates Francisco Cervelli Jersey. "But to have the return leg at home is a good thing." France and Ukraine last met in a 2012 European Championship match which was delayed several minutes after kick off by a torrential rain storm in Donetsk. France eventually won 2-0. Iceland, which has a population of about 315,000, is looking to become the smallest country ever to play at the World Cup. That record is held by 2006 qualifier Trinidad and Tobago, which had about 1.2 million. Though Iceland lacks the recent pedigree of Croatia, the 1998 semifinalist, the pairing pits a veteran coach against a novice. Iceland coach Lars Lagerback will be trying to reach his fourth straight World Cup with a third different team. He coached his native Sweden at the 2002 and 2006 tournaments, and Nigeria in 2010. Croatias playoff matches mark the coaching debut of 42-year-old Niko Kovac, who stepped up from the under-21 team to replace Igor Stimac, who was fired after poor results. "I met Niko a little when he took his (coaching) license," Lagerback said. "He looks like a clever guy." Kovac said he "did not expect this situation" and will work alongside his brother, Robert, another former World Cup stalwart for Croatia. "With him I am never afraid," said Kovac, who will be focusing on teamwork. "There was no team on the pitch. We have some good players but everyone working for himself." Greece coach Fernando Santos said he would have preferred to play the first match in Romania. "My message to the fans is that they should believe in the national team, go to the stadium, fill it, and put pressure on our opponents," Santos said.
