PHILADELPHIA -- A rare morning start didnt bother the Flyers, who jumped out over a sluggish Jets team that couldnt get going until it was too late. The Jets didnt just lose the game. Evander Kane left the game in the second period and did not return. He sustained a lower body injury in the first period during a collision with Braydon Coburn. Scott Hartnell opened the scoring 48 seconds in and Steve Mason stopped all but one shot as Philadelphia skated to a 2-1 victory over Winnipeg on Friday. As soon as he got the ice for his first shift, Hartnell found an unattended puck in front of the Jets net and immediately slapped it past Ondrej Pavelec to put the Flyers up, 1-0. "I just shot it as hard as I could," Hartnell said. "Ill take it. Its nice on your first shift, right in the slot theres a little present waiting for you there." Mason turned away 25 shots in the matinee that began at 11:30 a.m., including an impressive pad save on Matt Halischuk on a 2-on-1 chance in the second period. He improved to 3-0-1 in his career against the Jets (12-12-4). The Flyers (11-12-2) won their fifth straight game at home after dropping their previous two on the road at Florida and Tampa Bay. "Its huge," Mason said. "Our Florida effort was terrible. Both games were lacklustre, so to come home and get a big win before we go on the road for (12) days is a step in the right direction." Both Flyers goals came off Winnipeg turnovers. Hartnells score was the Flyers lone goal in a dominating opening period in which they outshot the Jets 13-2. "Morning game, obviously the first period was one where we werent engaged in the game," Winnipeg coach Claude Noel said. "You dont know what to expect. ... Obviously it wasnt a great situation." Sean Couturier had a short-handed breakaway opportunity in the first period that Pavelec stopped with a right pad save. But in the second he once again forced a Jets turnover on the penalty kill, this time beating Pavelec on a breakaway for his second goal of the year. Couturier also played a big role on the Flyers penalty kill that held the Jets without a goal in six power-play opportunities. "I was really impressed with (Couturiers) effort," Mason said. "He stepped up his game." Michael Frolik finally put the Jets on the scoreboard with 7:07 left in the third when he slipped one by Mason in front of a crowded net. Peppered with 34 shots, Pavelec made 32 saves but fell to 7-4-1 lifetime against the Flyers. The Flyers, who entered with a power-play goal in eight consecutive games, also failed to score on four tries. They opened the second period with 1:25 of 5-on-3 time but couldnt manage a shot while up two men. Philadelphia has yet to score a 5-on-3 goal this season. "The 5-on-3 wasnt good," coach Craig Berube said. "Got to execute better and come up together. You cant be dumping (the puck) in on a 5-on-3. You got to do a better job. They know that." The loss snapped Winnipegs five-game winning streak against Eastern Conference teams and was just its second defeat in Philadelphia in eight games. "We just werent very good," Noel said. "Was that an early morning game? I dont know. That would be a poor excuse, because theyre ready to play." The win was an important one for the Flyers, who are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games, but begin a six-game road trip Saturday night in Nashville. "Flying up to Canada, down south in Texas, were gonna have to get our rest and do the right things," Hartnell said. "Weve played solid on the road except for our last two games, and weve got to continue that and make this the best road trip of the year." NOTES: Flyers captain Claude Girouxs points streak ended at six games. ... Fridays meeting was the second of two between the teams this season. The Jets won in a shootout in Winnipeg 3-2 on Nov. 15. ... The Jets six-game road swing continues against the New York Rangers on Monday. Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping .

Wholesale Jerseys USA .Y. - Henrik Lundqvist wasnt happy going into Game 6 against Montreal.DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Venus Williams won her 45th career WTA title at the Dubai Championships in an impressive 6-3, 6-0 victory over Alize Cornet of France in the final on Saturday. The 44th-ranked Williams, playing courtesy of a wild card, also won this title in 2009 and 2010. Shes won her last 15 matches in Dubai. Williams, who will move up to No. 29 in Mondays updated rankings, last won a title at the 2012 Luxembourg tournament. "I have had a good week," she said. "Everything is falling together." The former world No. 1, Williams won all five of her matches this week in straight sets. "Just a lot of match toughness, mental toughness," said Williams, when asked to explain her remarkable week of play. "When things got tough, I definitely got going this week. "If I was down break point, when push came to shove, I was pushing and shoving, I guess," she added, laughing. The scoreline didnt indicate how strong an effort Cornet put into the final, often matching Williams stroke by stroke, but falling short in the end. After Cornet squandered a 2-1 lead with a service break by losing the next four games, she was in tears during the changeover..dddddddddddd "I think 6-3, 6-0 is a bit tough in an hour and 30, so I guess there was a battle on the court, but she was just better than me today," Cornet said. "She was playing more aggressive. "She was pushing me out of the court very far from the baseline, and I didnt play as deep as yesterday, didnt serve as well. She deserved to win." Williams closed out the first set on a third set point with a clean backhand winner. In the second set, it was Williams all the way. The 26th-ranked Cornet was attempting to post back-to-back wins over the Williams sisters. On Friday, Cornet scored her first career upset over a No. 1-ranked player by beating Serena Williams 6-4, 6-4 in the semifinals. "The difference between me and Serena was just I put a few more balls in the court," Williams said. But Cornet walked away hoping if she ever had a similar opportunity to play the Williams sisters in the same tournament the result might go in her favour. "For sure, beating the Williams sisters in the same tournament would have been amazing, and maybe next time if I have the chance (I can) do it," said Cornet, offering her only smile of the night.
