GLENDALE, Ariz. - Josh Gorges saw a puck rolling his way and an opportunity to give the Montreal Canadiens a much-needed win. Gorges scored 1:45 into overtime and the Canadiens edged the Phoenix Coyotes 3-2 on Thursday night. "The puck was squeezed out to me and I thought Id try and put it on net," Gorges said. "We knew it was going to be a battle. You have to work against this team." Brian Gionta had a goal and an assist, and Travis Moen also scored for the Canadiens, who snapped a two-game losing streak. Mikkel Boedker and Raffi Torres scored for the Coyotes, who lost for the second time in three games, but have earned points in seven of eight. "Its disappointing when you felt like we had a pretty good week and were feeling good about ourselves," Phoenix coach Dave Tippett said. "Its the desperation level that you need to win, and that desperation level led to a lot of one-on-one battles that we lost." The Canadiens were playing without left wing Michael Cammalleri, who hurt his knee Tuesday against Edmonton. "When you have guys out you have to have other guys chip in," Canadiens goalie Carey Price said. "It was nice to see Josh finally get rewarded." Torres tied it with 14:50 left, taking advantage of a convenient bounce. Keith Yandles initial rebound shot dropped into the crease, just to the left of Prices leg, and Torres flipped the puck into the open right side of the net to make it 2-2. "We came out with a quick goal, but we didnt build on it," Torres said. "As a team, had we been more physical, we would have been able to take the game away more." Boedker gave Phoenix a 1-0 lead at 5:43 of the first. Cal OReilly passed the puck from behind the net to Boedker on the doorstep in front of Price for an easy one-timed goal, his first since Oct. 13. Gionta made it 1-1 at 3:28 of the second, stealing the puck off Boyd Gordons stick behind the net and beating Mike Smith on a quick wraparound. "Gionta got him from behind," Montreal coach Jacques Martin said. "It was a surprise to him. He lifted his stick, took the puck and scored." Moen made it 2-1 with 2:14 left in the period, taking a pass from Gionta and scoring on a wrist shot from the left circle, just inside the hash marks.

NEW YORK -- Carmelo Anthonys three straight 3-pointers in a 15-0 third-quarter run were just what the Knicks thought they needed to break away from the Detroit Pistons. "Coming out of halftime, we said we just need one run to just separate ourselves," Anthony said. But to win it, they needed Anthony to grab one big rebound against a bigger front line, then hit a couple of finishing free throws. Anthony scored 13 of his 34 points in the third, then put it away with two free throws with 2.9 seconds left as the Knicks handed the Pistons a season-high fifth straight loss with an 89-85 victory on Tuesday night. Raymond Felton finished with 12 points and six assists in his return from injury for the Knicks, who came home from a 2-1 Texas swing and held on after blowing most of the 17-point lead they built while outscoring the Pistons 32-17 in the third quarter. Andrea Bargnani had 13 points and 11 rebounds, helping the Knicks overcome the absence of an ill Tyson Chandler to beat the Pistons at Madison Square Garden for the eighth straight time. Josh Smith had 21 points and 12 rebounds for Detroit, while Andre Drummond finished with 12 points and 17 boards. The Pistons were 3 of 19 on 3-pointers and badly missed reserve guard Rodney Stuckey, who missed his third straight game with a sore shoulder, because starters Brandon Jennings and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope shot a combined 3 for 18. "We had a very good effort," coach Maurice Cheeks said. "We were able to fight back, but we couldnt make any shots at the end." Anthony finally brought some offence to an ugly game in the third. He drilled three in a row from behind the arc, the first two from nearly the same spot in front of old teammate and current Pistons assistant coach Rasheed Wallace, to make it 58-49. Felton followed with a jumper before Anthony dunked to cap a 15-0 spurt and give the Knicks a 62-49 advantage. Jennings ended the run with Detroits first 3-pointer of the game, but Amare Stoudemire and Anthony had baskets before Iman Shumpert converted a three-point play when Greg Monnroe made a feeble attempt to foul him, as the lead ballooned to 69-52.dddddddddddd The Pistons had six baskets and seven turnovers in the period, which ended with the Knicks leading 73-58. Detroit put together an 11-3 run to cut it to 86-85 on Charlie Villanuevas free throw with 46 seconds left. The Pistons got a chance for the lead after Anthony was charged with an offensive foul, but Smith was woefully short on a jumper with 9.9 seconds left that Cheeks wished had been a drive to the basket instead. "I didnt get the shot I wanted. Im still beating myself up for that," Smith said. "I couldve been a little more aggressive and try to put the initiative on the referees to make a call. It was a shot that is definitely going to be with me until the next game so I can get it out of my head." Felton was fouled and missed the second free throw, but Anthony came away with the rebound, was fouled and made both. Felton played for just the second time in 14 games, having strained his right groin on Dec. 23 in his return from a six-game absence with a strained left hamstring. He was perhaps fatigued down the stretch, making a pair of turnovers that nearly cost the Knicks. "We got a win, thats the main thing," Felton said. The Knicks jumped to a 16-8 lead in the first 5 1/2 minutes before the messiness ensued. New York shot just 33 per cent from the field in the first half and was only 4 of 9 from the free throw line, yet was able to manage a 41-all tie. The Pistons backcourt did its part to help the Knicks, with Jennings and Caldwell-Pope combining to go 0 for 8 and Chauncey Billups coming off the bench to miss all three of his attempts. The Pistons were 0 of 8 from 3-point range in the half. Notes: Detroit fell to 6-1 against the Atlantic Division. ... Knicks forward Metta World Peace said he expected to miss two weeks after having an unspecified procedure on both knees Monday. ... Knicks coach Mike Woodson said guard Pablo Prigioni, out since breaking a toe on Dec. 16, got more treatment Tuesday and the team would have a better feel for his status Wednesday. cheap jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
