Adidas Superstar Nere e Bianche Offerte .The ACT franchise had several chances on Friday night to steal victory in the dying minutes but the defending champions held on to snap a decade-long losing streak at a slippery GIO Stadium.It marked the end of the Brumbies 2016 campaign and time at the club for a number of players - including co-captain Stephen Moore, playmaker Matt Toomua and David Pocock.Moore is heading back to the Queensland Reds next season, while Toomua is joining English outfit Leicester and Pocock is beginning a 12-month sabbatical.Winger Joe Tomane, who remains injured, is also leaving for France.Not since they missed the playoffs in 2012 have the Brumbies failed to advance beyond the first week of the finals, and Australia are left without a title contender.Stephen Larkhams men were kept tryless by the Highlanders, who - despite being restricted by the wet and windy conditions - scored a try in each half via winger Waisake Naholo and No.8 Liam Squire.The Brumbies were denied a potentially match-winning effort in the 75th minute, with the TMO finding insufficient evidence to award Lausii Taliauli a five-pointer.Their points came only from a trio of penalty goals by Christian Lealiifano.The Highlanders came out to a flying start but the conditions quickly put a dampener on proceedings.A slew of dropped balls, wayward kicks and penalties denied both sides a chance to play some free-flowing rugby.It initially worked in the Brumbies favour, with the hosts taking a 6-3 lead off a pair of penalty goals despite a lack of possession and field position.The Highlanders snatched it back, though, with a converted try to Naholo in the 37th minute and had Matt Toomua sent to the sin-bin for repeated offences close to the line.Just one point separated the sides until the 57th minute, when Squires try sealed the victory.

James Reimer made 30 saves.It came down to a couple bounces and fortunately those bounces were on our side tonight, Smith said.The Panthers finished 1-1-1 on their three-game road trip, which included a shootout loss in Winnipeg on Thursday night.Tough game, emotional game for us last night in Winnipeg, and then the guys came in tonight and dug deep into the tank to pull out as much energy as they could, Florida coach Tom Rowe said. It was real impressive.Jaromir Jagr didnt assist on any of the Florida goals and remains three points behind Mark Messier for second place on the NHLs career scoring list. Jagr has 1,884 points and now returns home for five games as he tries to pass the Hall of Famer.Jagr was on the ice for Demers goal and was stopped on a breakaway early in the second period that would have given Florida the lead.

They lost their seventh straight at home and are 4-10-1 at Pepsi Center.Colorado was 0 for 6 on the power play and gave up its first short-handed goal of the season.This is brutal, said Nathan MacKinnon, who assisted on the only Avalanche goal. Our (penalty kill) was good tonight, but our power play was horrible. We didnt make any good plays. We forced everything. We knew they were going to come hard and we werent ready for it.Demers tied it when his skate knocked in his own rebound, and the goal held up after a video review.Colorado called a timeout late in the third and pulled Pickard for an extra skater but couldnt score on Reimer, who is 5-0-1 in his career against the Avalanche.Game notes Pickard made 20 saves. ...
