SAN JOSE, Calif. Black Friday Nike Air Max 90 Sale . -- Brian Elliott stayed calm and cool in his first start. He also got a little lucky. Elliott stopped 34 of 36 shots, including a point-blank shot in the third period, and Kent Huskins and Alexander Steen scored in the third period to lift the St. Louis Blues past the San Jose Sharks 4-2 on Saturday night. "Credit the guys for getting back on track," Blues coach Davis Payne said. "San Jose got us way back on our heels in the second period. Fortunately, our goalie made some big saves." Matt DAgostini and David Backes also scored for the Blues, who ended a three-game winless streak to the Sharks by winning their first game here in nearly two years. "We expected to give up a few more shots in this building and against that team," Elliott said. "We were ready for that and the guys did a good job." Brent Burns and Michal Handzus scored for the Sharks, who lost their second game in as many nights. "We didnt make a lot of mistakes," Sharks coach Todd McLellan said. "But we made enough for them to score." Thomas Greiss had 16 saves for San Jose. Elliott turned back the Sharks despite being under pressure most of the night. The biggest of his 13 saves in the final period was stopping Dan Boyles shot during a power play. "The puck kind of squirted loose and he had a clear shot," Elliott said. "It was a desperation play to get over and get anything in front of it. It happened to go into my glove and Im happy for that. Those are the fun saves to make." Greiss, who played in San Joses loss to Anaheim on Friday night, was back in the net although Antti Niemi said he felt good enough to play. "The puck seemed to be bouncing off the ice pretty badly," Boyle said. "You have to keep it simple, especially on bad ice. We started to do that in the second period. We just need to simply things and keep playing hard." DAgostini picked off a pass in front of the Sharks net at 2:37 of the first period and beat Greiss to give the Blues the early edge. Handzus tied the game with a power-play goal in the second period, picking up Ryane Clowes rebound and getting it past Elliott. Burns shot on the net deflected off a defenceman and floated past Elliott to give the Sharks a 2-1 lead in the second period. Huskins picked up a loose puck along the boards and fired an unassisted goal past Greiss into the upper left corner to tie the score at 4:33 of the third. "I was just trying to get it to the net," Huskins said. "It just kind of found its way through." A nifty give-and-go between Steen and Kevin Shattenkirk resulted in the go-ahead goal at 9:18. Backes added an empty-net goal in the final minute. Notes: Huskins scored his first goal against the Sharks in 16 career games. ... Clowe has three points in his first three games. ...

Jon Montgomerys gold medal in skeleton at the Whistler Sliding Centre and his subsequent auctioning off of a pitcher of beer in the village square elevated him to folk-hero status.LONDON -- The Tour de France could be without Team Sky riders Bradley Wiggins and Geraint Thomas next year if the Britons are told to focus on preparing for the 2012 London Olympics. It will be a decision made by Dave Brailsford, the head of Team Sky and British cycling who potentially faces a conflict of interest. Brailsford is adamant the priority will be preparing cyclists for the Olympics rather than the Tour de France, which finishes just a week before the games start. "We have had the discussion and it is quite clear that we consider it a unique one-off home event," he said. "We are doing everything to ensure we are ready for the Olympic Games. If there is ever a question of prioritization, we are all prioritizing London 2012." Cycling will be key to Britains chances of replicating, or improving on, its fourth-place finish in the medal count four years ago, having won eight titles on the track at the Beijing Games. "With having a foot in both camps, I do not have to argue with professional teams over someone like (team pursuit gold medallist ) Geraint Thomas and try to get them to forego his participation in the Tour de France for the sake of a British ride at the Olympic Games -- they would not do that normally," Brailsford said. "With the unique position that I hold, I can decide what is the best race programm for someone like Geraint Thomas. Jerseys Black Friday Deals. " But the dangers of appearing in the Tour before the Olympics were highlighted last week when Wiggins was forced to pull out after breaking his collarbone in a crash during the seventh stage. "The road racers like (HTCs) Mark Cavendish and these guys race on a very, very frequent basis, so those guys would expect to come out of the Tour in great shape -- racing 10 days later (at the Olympics) wouldnt be a problem," Brailsford said. "For the track racers (like Wiggins and Thomas), wed have to think much more carefully about what would be best for their preparation." Brailsford said British broadcaster BSkyB, which sponsors Team Sky, backs his decision to focus on the Olympics over the road racing team. "Thats whats been clear from day one," he said. "Its never been an issue." Brailsford, however, did say that working with the riders at the Tour would put him in "an advantageous position" to prepare them for the Olympics. "It could be that we see quite a number of riders riding in France as part of the preparation for the Olympic Games," Brailsford said. "What the professional cycling team has allowed us to do is for me to monitor and control the racing programs, coaching and development of all the British riders." ' ' '
