According to the Winnipeg Sun, Pavelec spoke out in his post-game comments, complaining that the offence shot from the boards and never attempted to get traffic or bodies in front of the Islanders goal. After practice on Wednesday, he reiterated his feelings towards his teams game plan. "We just threw the puck away in their zone," said Pavelec a day after the loss. "Were practicing every day what were supposed to do, and we just dont do that. It was bad to see it. We were just shooting for a rebound, and nobodys driving to the net." Head coach Claude Noel felt the credit for his team earning a point in the loss to the Islanders belonged to his man between the pipes. "Pavelec was real good, He played strong," said Noel. "He helped us to at least get to a shootout. Thank him for the point." Heading into Thursdays contest against the Montreal Canadiens, Pavelec is 11-11-5 with a 2.98 goals against average so far on the season. While pleased with how hard his teammates are working, Pavelec believes more traffic in front of the opposing goal will lead to greater success. "Weve got good defencemen who can shoot the puck well, and theyre looking for a shot from the point," said Pavelec. "Thats great, but we need guys in front. Its that simple. I know its tough to play in front. It hurts, but it is what it is. Thats how you score the goals. So hopefully were going to be better in this part next game." Jets forward Blake Wheeler, who currently has three goals and 21 points on the season, also thinks his team needs to get into the more physical areas in front of the other teams netminder. "We were shooting a decent amount, but some of them were just kind of hope shots from areas where youre not really going to get much of a rebound," said Wheeler. "If we can get guys going to the net and guys shooting, hopefully the puck will squirt into some areas where we can put it in."

Cheap San Francisco 49ers Jerseys .Y. -- Bernhard Langer topped the leaderboard at 7 under when first-round play in the Dicks Sporting Goods Open was suspended because of rain Friday.FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Michael Turner is giving himself a clean bill of health. The two-time Pro Bowl running back played last season with an injured groin, but still led the NFC with 1,371 yards rushing. Undergoing off-season surgery, which coach Mike Smith described as a minor procedure, caused Turner to spend the NFL lockout rehabbing, but he has reported no problems after three days of training camp. "It was something that was there the whole time," Turner said Sunday. "It was something I had to push through last year." Turners production last year was in line with his first two Atlanta seasons. He ran for 71 first downs, third-best in the league. His 694 yards rushing after contact ranked fourth. Since the start of 2008, only Tennessees Chris Johnson (122) and Minnesotas Adrian Peterson (116) have more rushes of 10 or more yards, but its possible Turners groin became more difficult to manage as the season wore on. He averaged just 59 yards over the final four games, the last of which was a home blowout loss to Green Bay in the playoffs. For Turner, who ran only 10 times for 39 yards, the fallout from that 48-21 defeat was hard to accept, but the eighth-year veteran likes the versatility planned for Atlantas offence this season. After placing six offensive players in the 2010 Pro Bowl, the Falcons drafted receiver Julio Jones No. 6 overall, sending five draft picks, including a pair of first rounders, to Cleveland. In the fifth round, Atlanta selected Jacquizz Rodgers, a five-foot-six running back who adds speed in the open field and gives quarterback Matt Ryan an elusive receiving target. Rodgers averaged 1,282 yards rushing and scored 46 touchdowns in three seasons at Oregon State. "Hes small in stature," Turner said of Rodgers. "Its tough to judge him without many practices in pads, but from watching in college, he packs a punch to be that small. Hes got great foot sppeed and quickness, so hes going to be another weapon.

" The Falcons missed a speedy threat in their backfield during the last two years with Jerious Norwood often injured and unable to play, but Pro Bowl fullback Ovie Mughelli believes Rodgers will blend in quickly and complement Turners pounding style. "We have a lot of stability and we have a coaching staff that trusts us, so that we can put in all our plays fairly quickly," Mughelli said. "So were getting into the meat of our offence faster than most teams. Having guys back who can produce and help lead these young guys is going to be vital moving forward. Jacquizz is going to be good. His tape from college is impressive, but well have to see how that translates to the NFL." Atlanta returns four of five starters on the offensive line. Center Todd McClure and left tackle Sam Baker were already under contract. Right tackle Tyson Clabo and left guard Justin Blalock recently agreed to new deals but must wait until Thursday before they can practice. Smith and offensive co-ordinator Mike Mularkey are emphasizing a return to more big plays for Turner, who earned the NFL nickname "Burner" in San Diego but had just one run over 16 yards in the last six games of 2010. "I think thats not just a specific problem or issue with our running back. When we have explosive plays, were getting blocks at the second level (of a defence)," Smith said. "Its something we analysed in the off-season. We have to do a better job of blocking downfield to spring us for those explosive plays. Its on everybody." Turner agrees, but isnt making any major declarations during the first week of camp. Hes just glad his groin is healthy and hes feeling fresh. "Our goals are still the same as a team," he said. "Its Super Bowl first and all that other stuff like the Pro Bowl can just fall in behind it." ' ' '
