CALGARY -- Jarome Iginla has joined the 500-goal club. The Calgary Flames captain scored the 500th goal of his NHL career Saturday against the Minnesota Wild. Iginla came down the right wing and sent a pass in front that went off the skates of two Minnesota players and in past Wild goalie Nicklas Backstrom at 8:33 of the third period to give Calgary a 2-0 lead. There was a brief pause at Scotiabank Saddledome as fans wondered if another Flames player had deflected the puck home. But the crowd erupted soon after into a standing ovation and every Calgary player spilled off the bench to congratulate Iginla. Chants of "Iggy, Iggy" soon filled the arena as Iginla stood on the bench and acknowledged the crowd with a wave. The goal stood up as the game-winner in the Flames 3-1 victory. Theo Fleury noted his former teammates accomplishment on Twitter: "Congrats Iggy on 500 Way to go!!!!" Iginla is the 42nd player in NHL history to reach the milestone and just the 15th to do it with one team. His first regular-season goal came in his first regular-season game, Oct. 5, 1996, against the Vancouver Canucks. Iginlas first goal in the NHL actually came during the 1996 Stanley Cup playoffs the previous spring. The then 18-year-old Iginla signed with Calgary and joined the club after his WHL team was eliminated from post-season play. He had a goal and an assist in two games with the Flames in their series with the Chicago Blackhawks. Womens Frank Gore 49ers Jersey .C. -- The Carolina Hurricanes say goalie Cam Ward will miss six to eight weeks with a sprained knee ligament. Black Frank Gore Elite Jersey ."

(Sports Network) - Barely clinging to the eighth and final postseason slot in the Western Conference, the Memphis Grizzlies hope to get back on track tonight versus the visiting Los Angeles Clippers from FedEx Forum. Memphis is just 1 1/2 games ahead of Phoenix and two games in front of Utah in the standings. Houston is only three games behind the Grizzlies, losers in two straight and three of their last five games. In Saturdays 118-85 drubbing at the hands of the Miami Heat, O.J. Mayo scored 19 points and Marc Gasol provided 15 points and seven rebounds for Memphis, which shot 39 percent and turned the ball over 13 times. Mike Conley scored only two points but handed out a game-high 10 assists. We were just out of sync. We didnt make shots we normally make, said Conley, who shot 1-for-11 from the field. It was Memphis worst loss of the season. The Grizzlies, who own a 22-10 home mark, are still 24-14 since Christmas and lead the NBA in forced turnovers (16.7) and steals (9.28). Zach Randolph had 13 points and nine rebounds against Miami, and is two double-doubles shy of 300 in his career. Mayo is three steals from passing Pau Gasol (247) for 10th in team history. Meanwhile, the Clippers will put the finishing touches on a five-game road trip tonight and got back into the win column with Saturdays 122-101 win over the Washington Wiizards in DC.dddddddddddd. Blake Griffin scored 26 points in the first half and also grabbed five rebounds. He was able to rest in the fourth quarter, while Eric Bledsoe and Mo Williams scored 23 and 22 points, respectively, for Los Angeles, which rebounded from a loss at New Jersey that halted a four-game winning streak. LA blew a 20-point lead to the Nets and adjusted one night later. Teams are going to make runs, but I thought we responded better tonight with some better execution and we shot the ball better, which put pressure on them, said Clippers head coach Vinny del Negro. The Clippers are 3-1 on the road trip and 8-26 as the visitor. They will return home for a four-game residency versus the Sixers, Cavs, Suns and Wizards. Griffin is still one double-double away of matching Elton Brands Los Angeles record of 55 established during the 2001-02 season. Bob McAdoo holds the franchise record with 69 double-doubles set in 1974-75, when the franchise was formerly known as the Buffalo Braves. Griffin passed the 53 double-doubles mark set by Michael Cage in 1986-87. Williams is 5-2 in the Clippers lineup and is averaging 18.0 points, 6.0 assists and 2.4 rebounds in that stretch. Memphis downed the Clippers, 84-83, on Dec. 11 this season at Staples Center and has won four of the previous six meetings between the teams. ' ' '
