(SportsNetwork.com) - While the Nashville Predators have yet to lose consecutive games this season, theyve yet to put together a sizeable winning streak this month. The Preds look to make it two wins in a row on Saturday night as they visit the Minnesota Wild to begin a three-game trip. Nashville has gone 4-3-0 this month after capping November on a four-game winning streak. The Preds capped a three-game swing with a 2-0 loss at San Jose last Saturday, but responded yet again with a win, topping the Boston Bruins 3-2 in a shootout at home on Tuesday. Pekka Rinne made 33 saves through overtime and was perfect in the shootout, while Derek Roy had the lone tally of the tiebreaker. Mike Fisher and Mike Ribeiro had goals in regulation. We have been talking about it all year, how we are just trying to bounce back as quickly as we can, said Preds forward Filip Forsberg. Even though we might win a game but we do not play great we want to come back with a better effort the next time we play. I think we played way better tonight than we did in San Jose, so it felt good to win for sure. Defenseman Anton Volchenkov wasnt feeling at his best after the win, having suffered a lower-body injury that has him day-to-day. Nashville also placed forward Paul Gaustad on injured reserve Friday due to a lower-body injury that has held him out of the past three games. In response, the Preds recalled forward Viktor Stalberg from the American Hockey League. Rinne figures to start for Nashville tonight and is 9-4-2 in his career against the Wild with a 2.01 goals against average, .926 save percentage and three shutouts in 16 games (14 starts). The Wild, meanwhile, have lost back-to-back games for the first time since a four-game slide from Nov. 4-11 and failed to do what the Preds did recently: beat the Bruins in extra time. Loui Eriksson had a goal for Boston 1:30 into overtime on Wednesday to hand Minnesota a 3-2 setback. Zdeno Chara flung the puck around the boards off a faceoff win, Carl Soderberg tracked it down and Eriksson deposited a cross-crease pass into a wide-open net for the deciding marker. Kyle Brodziak and Jason Pominville both supplied offense for the Wild, while Niklas Backstrom stopped 22 pucks in defeat. Pominvilles tally with 8:21 to go in the third period tied the game and came as Ryan Suters shot off his own rebound hit off Pominvilles skate and in. Both Pominville and Suter were playing in their 700th career game. Just have to shake my head again. Their goalie was standing up and had no idea what was going on. Neither really did many of us, said Pominville, who has nine points in his last 11 games. Minnesota lost the opener of a four-game homestand as Backstrom made starts on back-to-back nights with Darcy Kuemper unable to go because of a stomach virus. The Wild hope Kuemper can return to action tonight given his success against the Predators. He has won both of his career starts against them -- one a shutout -- while giving up just two goals on 41 shots. Minnesota forward Matt Cooke also is close to returning from a hip flexor issue that has sidelined him since Oct. 28. Tonight is the first of five meetings this season between the Wild and Predators. The Wild have won five of the past seven, though the Preds snapped a three-game slide in Minnesota with a 7-3 win on April 13 of last season. Sheldon Richardson Jersey . Jeter doubled high off the left-field wall and scored on Jacoby Ellsburys first hit in pinstripes in the fifth. Hiroki Kuroda (1-1) pitched 6 1-3 sharp innings in the Yankees 112th opener in New York. In what manager Joe Girardi said would be a season-long lovefest for Jeter, the shortstop was cheered every step of the way by an adoring crowd of 48, 142 -- even when his double-play grounder back to Orioles starter Ubaldo Jimenez (0-2) scored Solarte in the third inning for the first run. Mike Remmers Vikings Jersey . Garcia had eight birdies overall to go with a lone bogey on the fourth to move to an 18-under total of 198 at the Asian Tour event.

Once on different sides of the reality TV show, Australian welterweight (Filthy) Richard Walsh trained with Canadian coach Patrick (The Predator) Cote. Heck, the Aussie spent the last week staying chez Cote. "Ive got a lot of time for him. Hes such a good guy," Walsh said of Cote. "Super super nice guy," said Cote. The two, along with fellow Canadian cast member Elias (The Spartan) Theodorou, also went to Thailand to train. "Hes my bestie, man," said the affable Theodorou. After spending six weeks with the 15 other fighters during filming in a lodge in the woods about an hour outside of Montreal late last year, Walsh is happy to be back in Canada. "I love this place," he said. "People are so friendly. And I like to see snow now and then. We dont get that in Australia." He saw plenty of snow during filming of the TV show, which wrapped in December. And he got a little more this weekend as winter refused to leave the Quebec capital. Fans who tune in to Wednesdays TUF Nations finale card will see Walsh sporting his impressive fight beard. The Aussie shaved it off on the TV show after losing his semifinal bout to Canadian Olivier Aubin-Mercier. He has no regrets about his time on the show. "For me, losing wasnt such a bad thing," he said. "Im back here. Im in the finale. This is the best thing thats happened to me in my life." The winners of the shows welterweight and middleweight divisions will be decided Wednesday in all-Canadian finals at the Colisee Pepsi. Aubin-Mercier faces Chad (The Disciple) Laprise at 170 pounds while Theodorou takes on Sheldon Westcott. The winners will be the first Canadians to be crowned The Ultimate Fighter. Cote was a finalist on Season 4 back in 2006, when he lost to Travis Lutter. The 25-year-old Walsh, meanwhile, takes on Australian teammate Chris (The Savage) Indich (6-1). After filming finished on the show, Walsh (7-1) went back to Australia and chilled. "I took a month off, had a few beers," he explained. "Kind of took it easy around Christmas and New Years." Thinking he might get a slot on the finale card, he returned to the gym and started training. Finding out that he was fighting a fellow Aussie hasnt fazed him. "I love the guy, hes grreat guy, hes done a lot for Australian MMA," Walsh said.dddddddddddd "But I dont have any problem punching him in the face. Because on the night, were not really going to be mates. Were fighting for our future." Walsh watched the show, saying he had no issues with how he was portrayed other than he has a better sense of humour than the show suggested. "Ill take it," he said. "They didnt make me look bad." And while he had no problem seeing himself on TV, he said he didnt like hearing himself. "Watching yourself, you see yourself in the mirror every day," he said. "Unless you dont like looking at yourself and then maybe youve got a few problems. But listening to yourself, thats something you dont get a chance to do often, so that was a bit of a wig-out." Walsh, who lives in Sydney, said life has not changed much for him since taking part in the show. He attributes that to MMA still facing an uphill battle in Australia. "Im hoping guys like myself, Chris can kind of grow that sport because in the last five years its kind of taken a spiral downwards from what it was when I first started." Australia, he says, needs top-flight fighters like Canada has had in Georges St-Pierre and Rory MacDonald. Walsh has other options than fighting for a living. He studied construction property at the University of New South Wales, finishing his degree at Georgia Tech and started studying law in Australia before quitting a semester later to pursue fighting. A year later, the former rugby player was on the UFC TV show. "For me its not about the money," he said. "Its like the furthest thing from the money and the glory and stuff. Its just something I like doing and I set a goal long ago that this was something and Ive kind of followed through on that. "Ive had to kind of buck a lot of trends, parents telling me I should get a job and all that kind of stuff. Because I come from a good family, good parenting, good education. So this was harder for me I think in a lot of ways than it was if I didnt have the choice. I had so many other things I could have been doing: making money, using my degree, travelling ... but I chose this path. "It was a little bit harder I think, but its a lot more fulfilling." Having made it onto a UFC card has proved to family and friends that his dream was worth chasing, he said.
