GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Calgary Flames are on a four-game winning streak, and they won seven of their past 10 (7-2-1).The Arizona Coyotes are on a five-game losing streak, and they dropped 10 of their past 13 (3-6-4).Why the disparity in play? Sometimes, the simplest explanation is the best.For me, its been three things, Flames general manager Brad Treliving said Wednesday as the team took part in an off-ice workout at Gila River Arena. Were getting stops from our goalie, our top guys have been excellent and in this little run were on, I think our power play is top 10 in the league and our PK (penalty kill) is like fifth. It really is that simple.Calgary (14-13-2) opened the season at 5-10-1, and the struggles were compounded by left winger Johnny Gaudreaus broken pinkie, which forced him to miss 10 games.Even before Gaudreau returned to the lineup on Sunday, however, the Flames were getting big contributions from center Sean Monahan (three goals, seven points in his last five games), goalie Chad Johnson (9-2 with a .931 save percentage since assuming the starting goaltending duties from Brian Elliott) and others.Gaudreau has two goals and four points in the two games since his return, and the Flames are rolling.I think we did a good job through the time Johnny wasnt here in establishing a base of play, Flames coach Glen Gulutzan said. Now that we get an offensive catalyst like Johnny in the mix, it just gives us a few more chances every game.The Coyotes (8-13-4) owns the second-lowest point total in the NHL. Arizona scored more than two goals just three times in its last 13 games.Its the lack of good plays being made, Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said. Usually the top players on your team make good plays, whether its on the power play or creating chances. Were not getting enough of those made. Then you look at some grind plays; should be able to grind some chances out. Not getting enough of those plays. Just not creating enough offense.Of Arizonas 25 games this season, 17 were decided by one goal, leading Tippett to believe his team is close to breaking through. However, Arizona is also being outshot 35.1 to 28.2 on a per-game average. Only goalie Mike Smith (.924 save percentage) is saving the Coyotes from a worse fate on a nightly basis.We have to do a better job helping Smitty out, Arizona defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson said.On Thursday, Smith is expected to start in goal for the Coyotes for the 10th time since returning from a left leg injury on Nov. 16. Smith has stopped 301 of 324 shots over that stretch for a .929 save percentage. Center Brad Richardson is out indefinitely with a broken tibia and fibula he sustained on Nov. 17 at Vancouver.Johnson is expected to start in goal for the Flames. Left winger Lance Bouma is still out of the lineup due to a shoulder injury. Air Force 1 Alte Hand Wash Cold . -- Team after team passed on Andre Ellington in the draft.

AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. -- Dru Brown to Marcus Kemp pulled Hawaii into a tie in overtime. Take II pushed them over the top as the dynamic duo came through in a big way.Given a reprieve at the end of regulation by a missed field goal, the Rainbow Warriors took full advantage with back-to-back TD strikes as they beat Air Force 34-27 in double overtime on Saturday to end the Falcons 15-game home winning streak.Brown threw a 25-yard TD pass to Kemp on the first play of the second overtime to give Hawaii (4-4, 3-1 Mountain West) the lead. Jalen Rogers intercepted a Nate Romine pass on fourth down to seal it and the Rainbow Warriors rushed the field in exuberance.When the ball went in the air, I just knew it was over, Rogers said. I knew I was either going to break it up or pick it.Brown and Kemp also connected on a 13-yard score in the first OT after Romine summersaulted into the end zone for a 5-yard score on Air Forces possession.Luke Strebel, who had made a Mountain West record 22 straight field goals, had a chance to win it on the final play of regulation, but his 32-yard attempt went wide right.They put me in a great spot to make a big play. Unfortunately, sometimes they dont go your way, Strebel said. You look back on it and you think, `I make that 99 times out of 100. Its easy. Its a shame that that had to be the one.Brown finished with a career-high 312 yards passing for Hawaii, including a 40-yard TD strike to John Ursua to tie it at 20 with 11:51 remaining. He also threw two interceptions after entering with a streak of 112 passes without a pick.Ursua had seven catches for 108 yards and Kemp six grabs for 151.To be a receiver you have to be confident. To be a big-time player you need to be confident in yourself, so I believe I can beat almost anybody, said Kemp, who burned Air Force senior DB Roland Ladipo for both OT scores.The Falcons (4-3, 1-3) lost at Falcon Stadium for the first time since Nov. 21, 2013, against UNLV. Theyve now dropped three in a row after a 4-0 start.There was a scary moment early in the third quarter when Air Force defensive back Jesse Washington wwas strapped to a stretcher and taken off the field after being tackled during an interception return.dddddddddddd The senior was on the ground for several minutes and tended to by team medical personnel. He gave two thumbs up as he was taken off the field.Washington was traveling up the right sideline on his 27-yard interception return when Hawaii tailback Diocemy Saint Juste tackled him. Washingtons head appeared to snap back.Thats our brother and you see him lying there with his eyes closed, said defensive back Brodie Hicks, who had the interception that ended Browns string. Ive never been more scared in my life.Washington had full movement in his extremities and was taken to a hospital as a precaution, the team announced.THE TAKEAWAYHAWAII: Trailed three times and rallied back. The Rainbow Warriors were routed 58-7 last season by Air Force and a day later, head coach Norm Chow was fired.I was just so happy my team came away with the win because of last year and the score last year and the things that we went through, said Rogers, whose team captured the Kuter Trophy thats given to the winner of this rivalry. But things are changing.AIR FORCE: The Falcons couldnt get any sort of passing game going against the Rainbow Warriors. Romine finished 1 for 10 for 20 yards.GAME BALL TO MOMRogers rushed over to the stands and threw the ball he intercepted to his mom.Hopefully she got away with it and I dont have to pay for it, Rogers said with a smile.NO BLAME GAMEAir Force got the ball with 8:18 remaining in regulation and methodically worked it down the field, only to have Strebels kick sail wide. He connected from 47 and 42 yards in the third quarter.His teammates had his back.Sometimes, you just miss, Hicks said. Im not mad at him at all. The team isnt.UP NEXTHAWAII: Hosts New Mexico next Saturday. The Lobos have won the last six over the Rainbow Warriors.AIR FORCE: Travels to Fresno State on Friday.---AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
