WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- John Collins doesnt need to stay on the court long to put up big numbers for Wake Forest.The 6-foot-10 sophomore had 22 points and 15 rebounds to help the Demon Deacons beat Charlotte 91-74 on Tuesday night, posting his fourth straight double-double.Collins has had foul trouble limiting his work, and his team-leading averages of 17.6 points and 10 rebounds had come with him averaging about 23 minutes per game.Sometimes I put myself in that situation, Collins said. Yeah I do wonder (what he could do with more minutes) but then again, I have to keep myself grounded and realize coach (Danny Manning) isnt just taking me out to take me out. Its me getting in foul trouble and something Ive got to work on.He had just one first-half foul as the Demon Deacons (7-2) ran out to an early double-digit lead and never looked back.This is one of the first games in a while that John has played defensively and done a good job of staying out of harms way in the first half, Manning said.Collins finished 7 of 11 from the field and 8 of 10 from the foul line to go with three blocks in 21 minutes, finishing two points and a rebound shy of matching career-high totals.Collins was a handful, we knew he was going to be for us, just with his size and athleticism, 49ers coach Mark Price said. We really didnt have an answer for him.Keyshawn Woods added 12 points against his former team for the Demon Deacons, who ran off 17 unanswered points in the first half to take control. Wake Forest led 45-27 by halftime and never let that margin slide to fewer than 15, earning the programs 11th straight win against instate nonconference opponents.Braxton Ogbueze had 20 points and made six 3-pointers for the 49ers (6-3), who shot just 10 of 30 (33 percent) in the opening half to fall behind big.BIG PICTURECharlotte: The 49ers werent able to string together consecutive wins against power-5 conference opponents. They were coming off a 66-63 home win against Oregon State of the Pac-12 in which they scored 25 points off turnovers, but they didnt have nearly as much success against their Atlantic Coast Conference opponent Tuesday.You go on the road against a good team like this, Price said, you cant dig yourself a hole.Wake Forest: While Collins is off to a terrific start in establishing himself as the Demon Deacons top player, Wake Forest did a better job protecting a big lead than it did when it let a 25-point margin slip all the way to four in a win against Coastal Carolina on Nov. 23. The Demon Deacons are getting plenty of practice, too, considering this was their sixth win by double-digit margins compared to just two a year ago.REUNIONWoods transferred after one season from Charlotte amid the coaching change that led to Prices arrival after the 2014-15 season and heard several boos from 49ers fans attending Tuesdays game.I dont think I was nervous, Woods said. I just played with the flow of the game, played with my teammates and got a win.ALL-STAR NAMESManning and Price played against each other in the NBA all-star games in 1993 and 1994, making this the third meeting of college head coaches who had played in the same NBA all-star game.UP NEXTCharlotte: The 49ers get an extended break before heading south to face No. 21 Florida on Dec. 17 in the Orange Bowl Classic in Sunrise, Florida.Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons make a roughly 30-mile drive east on Interstate 40 to face UNC Greensboro on Friday.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap---More AP college basketball at http://collegebasketball.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-Top25 Wholesale NFL Jerseys .

Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count?

Both the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Chicago Blackhawks are doing the blue-line shuffle to end the week, with lineup changes almost certain.The winless Blue Jackets (0-2-0) hope to break that streak as they host the Blackhawks (2-2-0) on Friday night at Nationwide Arena, with defenseman Ryan Murray drawing back into the lineup. Chicago, looking to extend its winning streak after dropping the first two games of the season, will have defensemen Brian Campbell and Michal Rozsival taking a seat.After six days without playing a game, the Blue Jackets are itching to drop the puck in search of that elusive first win.Its a big game for us, Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella said via the team website. Weve been sitting on 0-2 for a week here. It sucks. We need to have a good start and feel good about ourselves.The teams best period the early season also happened to be the last one against the San Jose Sharks, establishing a stout forecheck and scoring twice before ultimately losing 3-2 at home.Murray was reunited with Seth Jones on the top defensive-pairing in Thursdays practice, with rookie Zach Werenski dropping down to the second-pairing with David Savard. Rounding-out the final pair was Jack Johnson and Markus Nutivaara.Tortorella had a simple answer when asked about the change.I didnt like how the pairs played in the last game, he said.Hes also cognizant of not overworking Werenski after just two NHL games. In the absence of Murray against the Sharks, the 19-year old logged significant ice time (22:53) with one goal and four shots over 27 shifts, while playing primarily with Jones.We have to be careful with (Werenski), Tortorella said. Hes still a young man.Over the last five seasons with the Florida Panthers, Brian Campbell never missed a regular-season game. It appears that hell be sittingg for Fridays game, joining Michal Rozsival, who hasnt played in any of the first four games.ddddddddddddCampbells offseason acquisition was heralded as what was missing on a defense that struggled last season.Trevor van Riemsdyk had a poor game on opening night against the St. Louis Blues, recording 0-0-0, with zero shots and 4 PIM. He rode the pine for the next three games.We dont want the same two guys sitting out all the time, Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said to the Chicago Sun-Times. Sometimes you dont want to tinker with a winning lineup, and sometimes... youve got to get them in there to play. Thats what were visiting.Van Riemsdyk played in all 82 games last season for the Blackhawks, but finds himself fighting for ice time on a blue-line crowded with eight defensemen.Columbus announced Thursday that defenseman Cody Goloubef (oblique injury) was placed on waivers, so that he could be assigned to the teams AHL Cleveland Monsters, ostensibly to get him playing time coming off the injury. If he clears at noon on Friday, hell report to Cleveland.For Chicago, its injury situation is a touch longer than the Blue Jackets.Marian Hossa, having scored his 500th goal in Tuesdays win over the Philadelphia Flyers, suffered a lower-body injury after blocking a shot in the latter stages of the game. Hes considered day-to-day and is questionable for Fridays game in Columbus and Saturdays game against the Toronto Maple Leafs.Rookie forward Ryan Hartman, having missed the last two games with a lower-body injury, could return to the lineup Friday.The two starting goalies for Fridays game are expected to be Sergei Bobrovsky for Columbus and Corey Crawford for Chicago. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
