VANCOUVER - The Chicago Blackhawks are still looking for consistency a quarter of the way into their season.
Terry Rozier Celtics Jersey .The Blackhawks left Vancouver with a 4-1 loss on Sunday night as players and coaches said the team needs to find its rhythm moving forward. Chicago is 6-4 in its last 10 games and has won four out of its last five, with 11 goals scored and four allowed against the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers.We feel we can get to another level and we have shown it in spurts, said forward Patrick Kane, who was held pointless by the Canucks. (We) just got to have that consistency to be a little bit better.Blackhawks head coach Joel Quenneville was quick to point out that a handful of wins glossed over fundamental issues in what was actually a lacklustre start to Chicagos season.We mightve won some games early on but we didnt play very well, he said following the loss to the Canucks, adding that he believes the Blackhawks have only recently begun to find their feet and settle. Tonight we didnt have much puck support or pace to our game.Chicagos season has been mired in little setbacks with the team not winning more than two games in a row until Saturday when the Blackhawks earned their third straight victory with a 7-1 rout of the Edmonton Oilers. Chicago has also dropped key games against Central Division rivals St. Louis, Nashville and Winnipeg.One issue has been scoring, although Kane came into Sundays game in Vancouver on a four-game goal streak. He also leads the team in points this month, edging out Jonathan Toews by an assist.Kris Versteeg scored the teams only goal on Sunday, capitalizing on the power play midway through the second period after the Canucks Derek Dorsett was sent to the box for slashing. The Blackhawks power-play unit, which is ranked 14th in the league, went to work.Brent Seabrooks pass found Duncan Keith standing at the point. His shot was tipped in front by Versteeg past Canucks goalie Ryan Miller for his fourth goal in seven games. After registering 11 shots in the first period, the Blackhawks faded, getting only six and eight on net the following periods.It was high paced. We just didnt take control of the game. I think we let them move the puck side to side across the ice and get their rush game going a little too easy, said Toews, who finished minus-four and was one of six Chicago players to not get any shots on goal. Pucks were just going through us everywhere. We werent checking well. We made their puck possession game really easy.The Canucks kept Corey Crawford on his toes throughout the game peppering him with 29 shots. The Blackhawks high-scoring offence showed flashes of brilliance with two short-handed opportunities in the first period stretching the Canucks defence.But as the game wore on, Chicago eased up on Vancouver.It was one of these games that you got to find a way to get something in the third period going, said Quenneville.The Blackhawks are next in action on Nov. 26 against Central Division rivals the Colorado Avalanche, who have lost six of their last 10.

"Im going to celebrate for a whole 12 minutes, and then Im going to start watching Orlando and trying to figure them out," the first-year Celtics coach said after Boston beat the Utah Jazz, one of the leagues other winless teams, 97-87 on Wednesday night.ROME -- Gervinho scored a late winner as Roma beat league leader Juventus 1-0 in the Italian Cup quarterfinals on Tuesday. The Ivory Coast forward acrobatically finished Kevin Strootmans cross after a well-worked move with substitute Miralem Pjanic to line up a two-legged semifinal with either Napoli or Lazio. It was a match between the top two sides in Serie A. Roma lost 3-0 in the league to Juventus earlier this month to slip eight points behind the two-time reigning league champion. "It was a win we wanted at all costs," Roma captain Francesco Totti said. "Today we showed that we are at the same level as a great Juve side. "For me, theres not all this distance between us and them. But its normal that everyone looks at the current table. Were doing really well, but theyre going beyond the limits." It was also a matchup between the two clubs which have won competition the most times, with both boasting nine Italian Cup victories. Roma, which lost last years final to bitter rival Lazio, started well and had two good opportunities inside the opening 11 minutes but first new signing Radja Nainggolan and then Alessandro Florenzi fired wide. Juventus players and staff called fuuriously for a red card for Mehdi Benatia when he dragged down Sebastian Giovinco as the forward was attempting to race onto Andrea Pirlos long ball.

The home side went close to taking the lead 10 minutes from halftime when Maicon rolled a tantalizing ball across goal and past Juventus goalkeeper Marco Storari -- but there was no Roma player on hand to tap it in. Juventus had the ball in the back of the net in the opening minute of the second half but Federico Pelusos header was ruled out as Mauricio Islas cross had already gone out of play. "Maybe we were a bit too timid in the first half but I dont remember us suffering particularly," Juventus coach Antonio Conte said. "They scored when they had a good chance, while when it happened to us they ruled out the goal." Conte clearly felt the refereeing decisions had not gone Juves way, starting with Islas cross. "The ball seemed in to me," he said. "Also Benatias foul on Giovinco was that of the last man but we accept the referees decision. Its disappointing to be knocked out of a competition, but I dont have anything to reproach the lads for."
