RALEIGH, N.C. -- Jason Pominville and the Minnesota Wild were winless in shootouts this season until a perfect performance Saturday night. Pominville scored a goal in regulation and the game-winner in the shootout to lift Minnesota to a 3-2 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes. All three Wild players scored in the shootout: Zach Parise, Mikko Koivu and Pominville. "It wasnt the prettiest win, but we found a way," Pominville said. "I think thats usually the sign of a good team. We go home now and try to keep it rolling." Justin Fontaine got the tying goal midway through the second period and Josh Harding made 27 saves to improve to 9-2-2 for Minnesota, which won for the seventh time in nine games. It was the first victory for the Wild in six trips to Carolina. "We were bound to win in a shootout in one of these," Fontaine said. "The end result was what we needed. Its always a big goal when you can tie the game up." Jiri Tlusty and Ryan Murphy scored for the Hurricanes, who had won two straight. Justin Peters stopped 28 shots but allowed all three goals in the shootout. Since losing five straight, the Hurricanes have earned points in their last three games. They have two more remaining on a five-game homestand. "I think its all just coming together," Carolina coach Kirk Muller said. "We have had a couple of good, strong games lately and we are playing well." Carolina was 0 for 3 on the power play, while Minnesota finished 0 of 4. Neither team had enjoyed any success in shootouts this season. Minnesota lost its three previous tries, including its last game at Washington. Carolinas record in the tiebreaker fell to 0-3. "We played a real solid game from start to finish," said Peters, who got his first career assist. "I just wished I could have gotten one of those shootout goals to give us a chance, but they made some real nice moves." Pominville opened the scoring 3:33 into the first period on a breakaway for his 200th NHL goal. The Hurricanes responded 1:20 later when Murphy, a second-year defenceman, took a shot from the right point that Harding couldnt stop. Tlusty made up for a pair of penalties he took in the first period by scoring his third goal of the season. He slipped a shot underneath Hardings pads as he skated through the slot at 7:14 of the second period. Fontaine tied it 4:08 later.

Authentic Nick Van Exel Jersey .Y. - The New York Yankees made it official Saturday, announcing the completion of a seven-year deal with free-agent outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury and a one-year contract for returning starter Hiroki Kuroda.MIAMI -- A South Florida businessman pleaded not guilty Thursday following his arrest for his alleged role in a human smuggling venture that brought Los Angeles Dodgers star Yasiel Puig out of Cuba. Gilberto Suarez, 40, entered the plea to a charge of alien smuggling conspiracy during a brief hearing in Miami federal court and was granted release on $120,000 bail. He was arrested Wednesday by agents with Homeland Security Investigations, an arm of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The indictment includes few details and only identifies Puig by his initials. But it does seek forfeiture of any money obtained by Suarez from Puigs $42 million contract as well as just under $3 million in cash, a condominium, a Miami house, a 2014 Mercedes-Benz and a 2013 Porsche. A civil lawsuit filed in Miami against Puig contains details about Suarezs alleged involvement in the plot. Those documents describe Suarez as one of the Miami-based men who financed Puigs 2012 trip by boat from Cuba to Isla Mujeres, a fishing village near Cancun, Mexico. The initial price for the trip was $250,000, then was raised by the smugglers to $400,000. An affidavit in the lawsuit by a Cuban boxer who was on the trip said the financiers eventually hired men to take them away from the smugglers to Mexico City. The boxer, Yunior Despaigne, said in the affidavit that he met Suarez and others while in Mexico City. Puig, a 23-year-old outfielder, later signed a seven-year, $42 million contract with the DDodgers.dddddddddddd After a stellar rookie season in 2013, Puig this year is batting .290 with 13 home runs and 60 runs batted in for the first-place Dodgers. Despaigne said in the affidavit he was told that Suarez and others were supposed to receive a sizable percentage of Puigs contract. Later, after Despaigne had crossed the U.S. border in Texas, he said he met with Suarez in Miami. Despaigne was told, he said in the affidavit, that one of the original smugglers who was issuing threats because he had not been paid would be "neutralized." Suarez told the boxer to look up the mans name on the Internet, where Despaigne found articles that he had been shot and killed near Cancun. The lawsuit, filed by a man jailed in Cuba, claims Puig falsely accused him of human trafficking to curry favour with Cuban authorities so he could rejoin Cubas national baseball team. Puig had been removed from the team because of fears he would defect. Through attorneys, Puig has denied the allegations. Last month in a separate case, Eliezer Lazo, described by prosecutors as the mastermind of a massive Cuban human smuggling operation, pleaded guilty to extortion charges. Among the more than 1,000 people smuggled in that case were several athletes including Texas Rangers outfielder Leonys Martin, according to court documents. Lazo faces up to 20 years behind bars when sentenced Nov. 10. A second man, Juan Urrutia, is scheduled to plead guilty next week in that case.
