Pittsburgh, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - Blake Comeau and Kris Letang posted early scores, while Rob Klinkhammer provided a late tally as Pittsburgh turned away Calgary, 3-1, at CONSOL Energy Center. Marc-Andre Fleury made 26 saves for the Penguins, who won for the sixth time in their last nine and extended their lead over the idle Islanders in the Metropolitan Division to three points. Great job by them blocking shots, Fleury said of his defensemen and penalty killers, who kept Calgary scoreless in five chances. Keeping them to the outside and out from in front of the net. Very solid night. They won without the services of team captain Sidney Crosby, who was ruled out for the next two games with an unknown medical diagnosis which was not suspected to be the mumps. Crosby did appear after a Friday practice session with one side of his upper jaw swollen, and was kept out of action as a precaution. Johnny Gaudreau picked up the lone goal for the Flames, who lost their fourth straight contest. Jonas Hiller made just 19 saves in the setback. The hosts couldnt give themselves enough breathing room until 2:47 remained in regulation, as Klinkhammer picked up his first goal with the Pens by redirecting a Steve Downie pass home from the slot for a 3-1 advantage. It takes some time, Klinkhammer said. One or two practices, so its good. Its a step in the right direction. The more ice I get with these guys, the better its going to feel. Hiller was pulled for an extra skater after the ensuing faceoff but the visitors failed to get any closer. Pittsburgh struck twice in the games first five minutes, with Comeau converting an Evgeni Malkin pass at 48 seconds followed by Letangs redirection of a Simon Despres offering at 4:43 during a 4-on-4 situation. Gaudreau got one back for the Flames at 12:15, following up a Markus Granlund rebound and scoring from the right side. Hiller halted 11 shots and Fleury six in a scoreless but spirited second period. I think in the third period, we needed to play more in their zone, get more guys in front of the net and go to the dirty areas, Flames forward Paul Byron said. It looks like other teams are scoring those goals right in the paint and were not getting enough of those.

The two-time Olympic halfpipe gold medallist informed ESPN on Monday he plans to compete in Apsen, Colo.JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- Edoardo Molinari was in a four-way tie for the first-round lead at the European Tours Joburg Open with his 7-under-par 64 on Thursday. The Italian, chasing a British Open place as well as his first title in four years, was joined by Scottish pair Alastair Forsyth and Craig Lee and South African Justin Walters. A 2010 Ryder Cup winner, Molinari opened with three straight birdies at Royal Johannesburg and Kensington and collected eight in all on the par-71 West Course. "The front nine was probably as good as Ive played in a long time," he said. Lee had maybe the most impressive start with his 7-under 65 on the tougher par-72 East Course, with eight birdies and just one bogey on No. 17. "Its really hard to figure out where you are in the field with two golf courses, and with the East being slightly tougher I feel like Im in a good position," Lee said. Forsyth and Walters both carded 64s on the West, with Forsyth not dropping a shot all day. They led by one shot. Players play one round on the East and West courses before finishing on the East over the weekend. The tournament is also a qualifying event for the British Open in JJuly and offers places to the three highest-placed finishers in the top 10 not already exempt.dddddddddddd None of the top 10 on Thursday have qualified for the Open. Johannesburg defending champion Richard Sterne opened with a 5-under 67 on the East, but couldnt fully capitalize on an eagle three on his first hole, as he sat in a tie for 13th. Sterne has qualified for the British Open, as has former Masters champion Charl Schwartzel, who managed a 69 on the East. Molinari has battled through fitness problems since his 2010 Ryder Cup debut and hasnt won since that year, but looked solid with five birdies and a single dropped shot on his opening nine. He made another three birdies coming in. Chasing the leading pack are eight players on 6 under, including South Africas Hennie Otto, who tied for second in the season-opening South African Open in November. South Koreas Jin Jeong, who won his maiden tour title at the Perth International last year, is also in contention after a 65. The Joburg Open is the sixth tournament out of 10 on the early European Tour schedule to be played in South Africa. There will be a seventh next weekend with the Africa Open.
