ANAHEIM, Calif. Ben Tate Jersey . -- Jakob Silfverberg is making himself right at home with the Anaheim Ducks, scoring four goals in his first four games. He had a pair of goals, and Jonas Hiller made 34 saves for his 17th NHL shutout in Anaheims 6-0 rout of the New York Rangers on Thursday night in the home opener of the Ducks 20th season. Silfverberg was acquired from Ottawa when the Ducks traded veteran Bobby Ryan in July. The 22-year-old right wing is holding his own on a line with 43-year-old Teemu Selanne and Mathieu Perreault. They assisted on both goals by Silfverberg, who had the second two-goal game of his young career. "Ive been fortunate to play with two great players," Silfverberg said. "Theyre so good at one-on-one battles and at finding me. Ive been lucky so far and its a matter of keep shooting the puck." Dustin Penner and Daniel Winnik each added a goal and an assist. The goals were the most scored by Anaheim and its largest margin of victory, both in a home opener. "We want to build up a lot of confidence at the start of the season," Silfverberg said. "We cant get satisfied. We got to keep pushing harder." New York has been outscored 20-6 to start their first season under new coach Alain Vigneault. The Rangers lost 9-2 at San Jose on Tuesday. "If we play this way, were going to be in deep trouble," defenceman Dan Girardi said. "Weve just got to figure out what the heck is going on and start being a hard team to play against, and get back to what we were successful at the last couple of years." The Ducks outshot the Rangers 37-34 for their third win in a row in the teams first meeting in nearly two years. Playing without injured All-Star forward Rick Nash, the Rangers fell to 1-3 on their nine-game trip, the longest to open a season in franchise history. Nash got hit in the face by San Joses Brad Stuart on Tuesday. Stuart received a three-game suspension for an illegal check to the head. New Yorks Henrik Lundqvist, a finalist for the Vezina Trophy last season, stopped 31 shots in losing for the third time in four games. "Its going to be hard for Henrik to stop everything if we keep turning the puck over like that," centre Derick Brassard said. "We just need to support the puck better and make the simple tape-to-tape pass. Were not executing right now and its really hurt us. We pretty much had the same game in San Jose, but I dont think its because of lack of effort." The Ducks built a 3-0 lead on goals by Ryan Getzlaf, Silfverberg and Winnik in the first period, when Anaheim outshot the Rangers 17-3. "I had a good seat for an exciting game," Hiller joked about having little to do in the first. Silfverbergs initial goal came on a tip-in. "Its really nice to see him fit right in that line," Hiller said. "Its great to see him scoring." The Rangers were the NHLs least penalized team last season, but they racked up 26 minutes worth in the first. Derek Dorsett accounted for 19 minutes, including a 10-minute misconduct after instigating a fight with Anaheims Bryan Allen. Silfverberg struck again 1:27 into the second, scoring on a long rebound that caught Lundqvist out of the net. The play began when Benoit Pouliot gave away the puck in New Yorks zone. "Theres just no pride going on right now in our defensive zone," Rangers captain Ryan Callahan said. Saku Koivu made it 5-0 on a wrist shot, and Penner beat Lundqvist glove side to score his first goal of the season, giving the Ducks three more goals in the period. "The first two periods were as good as we can play," Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau said. The Rangers cut their penalties to one in the second, when they kept Hiller busier by outshooting the Ducks 14-13 but still had nothing to show for it. "Its kind of tough when youre up 6-0 to keep pushing," Hiller said. "It was nice to get a couple stops there." In the third, New York had 17 shots to Anaheims seven.

Barkevious Mingo Browns Jersey . Ausmus says he realized his words were insensitive and in poor taste as soon as they left his mouth. The first-year manager was asked after Detroits 2-1 loss to Kansas City on Wednesday how his mood is when he heads home from the ballpark these days. MILWAUKEE -- Beno Udrih didnt exactly stick around to savour the moment. After hitting what turned out to be the game-winning shot, the Milwaukee Bucks backup guard quickly got dressed and quietly slipped out of the locker room. His big play would have to speak for him. Udrih hit a go-ahead jumper with just under a minute left, and the Bucks held off a late comeback to beat the Philadelphia 76ers 97-93 on Monday night. "I found him, he made the play," Bucks centre Drew Gooden said. "He knocked down the shot, and that was huge. That was huge for us." Brandon Jennings had 33 points and Gooden added 25 points and 10 rebounds for the Bucks, who have been stuck in a funk for a little more than a month. Since beating the Miami Heat on Feb. 1, Milwaukee had lost 12 of its last 16 games coming into Monday nights game. They finally got things back together Monday -- and it all happened in front of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who sat courtside. "We were able to finally make some shots under five minutes, which is something we havent been able to do," Jennings said. Lou Williams had 26 points off the bench for the 76ers, who were coming off a narrow home loss to Chicago on Sunday and have lost eight of 10. Williams almost single-handedly brought the 76ers back in the game in the final minutes, but they couldnt complete the comeback. Williams said the 76ers have to find ways to win close games. "I dont know what to pinpoint," Williams said. "I just know its happening." The 76ers shot 13 for 49 from the floor in the second half. "I mean, come on," 76ers coach Doug Collins said. "Who are you going to beat?" Bucks coach Scott Skiles was pleased with the way his team defended after halftime. "Its not magic," Skiles said. "Theres no magic dust thats sprinkled on anybody. They put their foot down a little bit." The Bucks went on a 15-4 run at the end of the third quarter to erase an eight-point 76ers lead. "I thought we had a chance to go up about 12 to 15 points on them," Collins said of the third quarter. "We missed free throws, missed layups, turned the ball over." Milwaukee led 74-71 going into the fourth -- then Mike Dunleavy Jr. Ben Tate Womens Jersey. and Jennings hit back-to-back 3-pointers to open the fourth, extending the lead to nine. Dunleavy hit another 3-pointer later in the quarter, putting the Bucks up 87-76 and forcing Collins to call a timeout with 6:23 left. But the 76ers answered with a quick 8-2 run that included 3-pointers by Williams and Andre Iguodala, then a driving layup by Williams that cut Milwaukees lead to 89-84 with 4:35 left. Philadelphia cut the lead to four after Iguodala hit one of two free throws, but Gooden scored inside for Milwaukee. After the 76ers came up empty on their next possession, Jennings hit a driving layup for a 93-85 lead with 2:31 left. But Williams converted a three-point play for the 76ers, and Gooden threw a pass wildly out of bounds for the Bucks. "It went in the eighth row," Gooden said, laughing. "But we bounced back." Williams hit a jumper to cut the lead to three with 1:47 left. After a Bucks miss, Williams was fouled on a three-point attempt by Jennings with the shot clock running down. Williams hit all three free throws to tie the game with 1:11 left. Udrih hit an open 15-foot jumper for Milwaukee with 58.2 seconds left, and Williams missed on the other end. Gooden then missed a shot for the Bucks, and a kicked ball gave the ball to the 76ers with 23 seconds left. Williams dribbled the ball for several seconds before driving the lane and missing, then committed a foul on the rebound to give the ball back to the Bucks. Ersan Ilyasova hit a pair of free throws to put the game away. "In the fourth quarter, we were able to get back in (the game)," Iguodala said. "We just didnt get stops." NOTES: Fans chanted "MVP!" when Rodgers walked back to his seat after halftime, and he obliged the crowd with his trademark "title belt" celebration gesture during a fourth quarter timeout. It was shown on the scoreboard, drawing one of the biggest cheers of the night. ... Jennings got off to a hot start, scoring 14 of the Bucks first 19 points. ...
