CALGARY -- It was an Olympic heroes welcome for the unlikeliest of heroes at Calgary International Airport Tuesday. Gilmore Junio stepped aside to let Denny Morrison race the 1,000 metres at the Winter Olympics in Sochi and watched his teammate deliver a silver for Canadas first speedskating medal in Sochi and follow that up with a bronze in the 1,500. But the homecoming in Calgary was all about Junio. One sign read "Gilmore for PM" while another said "Gilmore Junio won gold in the hearts of Canada". "Im pretty surprised and it definitely caught me off guard," said a beaming Junio with Morrison at his side. "When we made the decision within our team it was just such an easy decision to let him skate because he was skating so well. "This was really pleasant surprise. You see this on TV for the hockey players and stuff like that and I never thought Id be walking into one these. Its all because of him," he said with a nod to Morrison. "He makes me look good so Ill ride his coattails for a bit." Morrison, with his silver and bronze medals hanging around his neck, added to Junios accolades. "Its pretty neat how much attention this has gotten and this guy is one of the greatest guys in the world," he said. "He does things like this all the time and this is just another one of those things that Gilmore would do." Junios parents, Gino and Julie, were taken aback by the attention. "Actually we were just thinking to wait outside in the cell parking lot and I had texted him when youre done, text me and Ill pick you up," Gino said with a laugh. "We didnt really expect this. We were overwhelmed with the signs of support for him. This is amazing." Kelly Murray travelled from Red Deer, Alta., to show off her "Gilbert for PM" sign. "Its because what he did for the country was pretty special. Theres not a lot of people who would do that," she said. "He must have put the country first ahead of his own ambitions." Junio still has his ambitions and refused a request from a photographer to reach over and touch Morrisons silver medal. "Ive said I wont touch Dennys medal until Ive got my own. Thats kind of a hockey player mentality where you dont touch the Stanley Cup until you get it," he said. "But from what Ive seen it looks pretty good." Morrison is hoping to share in a future medal ceremony with his teammate. "If it all works out to the very best therell be a team sprint event in 2018 and we can be on the same team and win together that way." Aqib Talib Rams Jersey .com Tours Nova Scotia Open.

Santorelli, who was signed as free agent by Vancouver in the off-season after being cast adrift by three other NHL clubs, scored two goals and added an assist as the Canucks beat the Colorado Avalanche 3-1. "It feels nice to, for sure, a lot of us have been sniffing around (the net) and our line played great tonight," said Santorelli. The 27-year-old Vancouver native was drafted by the Nashville Predators in the sixth round (178th overall) in 2004, but spent much of his four seasons with them in the minors and failed to stick with Florida and Winnipeg while also playing briefly in Sweden during the NHL lockout last season. But Santorelli, who joined Vancouver on a two-way contract, now has eight goals on the season, easily surpassing the two he produced with Florida last season while splitting the campaign with the Panthers and Jets. And, he is just one shy of the nine goals that he had in 60 games with Florida in 2011-12. "He was our best player by far tonight in all areas," said Canucks coach John Tortorella. The Canucks (17-10-5) posted their fifth win in sixth games and moved within a point of the upstart Avs (20-8-0) in the tight Western Conference standings. "I honestly felt we played a better game than them and, unfortunately, we have nothing to show for the result," said Colorado coach Patrick Roy. "But, I mean, Luongo was good. Both goalies were good, actually." Ryan Kesler also scored for the Canucks, who were outshot 29-21 by the Avalanche. Jamie McGinn replied for Colorado with only 7.1 seconds left in the game. As a result, Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo was denied the 65th shutout of his career and a chance to move within one of tying Roy, who ranks 14th all-time in NHL history. "If you ask me about the goal I am going to snap," Luongo said with a laugh. "Its all right, that stuff happens. Well take the two points and move on." The Canucks goaltender improved his record on the season to 14-8-5. Colorado goaltender Jean-Sebastien Giguere, 36, lost for the first time in eight decisions this season. The Avs suffered only their third loss in the past nine games. Gigueres 7-0-0 start to the season was a career best as well as a Colorado franchise goaltending record. "I didnt think we played terribly bad," said Giguere. "But I dont think it was our best effort, either. I dont think it was, overall, a great effort by either team. It was kind of a grind-it-out type of game, and they got the two goals in the third. We just couldnt recover from that." The Canucks, criticized by Tortorella following Fridays overtime win over Phoenix for an ongoing inability too finish out wins, broke open a tight game with two goals in the third period.dddddddddddd Kesler put the Canucks ahead 2-0 at 1:32 of the second period as he tucked in Santorellis rebound while standing alone beside the net. The goal was Keslers fifth goal in his past four games and 15th in 32 total games this season, putting him just seven shy of the 22 he mustered in 77 contests in 2011-12. He has already surpassed the measly four he scored in an injury-plagued and lockout-shortened 2013 campaign. About five minutes later, Santorelli beat Giguere with a high shot while using linemate Chris Higgins as a decoy on a 2-on-1. Vancouvers third-period onslaught came after Colorados Holden beat Luongo with a high slapper, but hit the crossbar with just over three minutes left in the second. The Canucks second line of Santorelli, Kesler and Higgins, who had two assists, accounted for all of Vancouvers goals. "They are two unbelievable players to play with and its nice playing with two guys like that," said Santorelli. "You learn a lot from them. We are communicating with each other on the bench and letting each other know where we are and things like that, and its been fun." Vancouver was blanked on three power plays, marking the first time in eight games that they have not scored with the man-advantage. Colorado had one power play. Giguere was not perturbed by the end of his unbeaten string. "These are just stats for you (media) guys to talk about," said Giguere. "It was nice, but I try to go in there and compete every day and, unfortunately, losing is part of the game, too. Im just gonna regroup and get ready for the next chance that I get to play." McGinn spoiled Luongos shutout after Roy pulled Giguere in favour of an extra attacker for most of the last five minutes. "We pulled the goalie with five minutes left in the game for us as coaches to show our players that we (dont) quit," said Roy. Luongo joked that Roy pulled his goalie early to prevent him from getting close to the Hall of Famers shutout total. "Theres no danger there," said Roy. "Hell pass me there, for sure." Luongo wont have to wait long for another chance to tie Roy. The Canucks host Carolina on Monday while Colorado heads home to meet Phoenix on Tuesday. Notes: The Canucks recalled defenceman Yannick Weber from Utica of the AHL earlier Sunday. He adds further depth following Alex Edlers undisclosed injury and coach John Tortorellas comment that Andrew Alberts play "scares" him. Edler sat out his second consecutive game. This season marks the first since the former Quebec Nordiques franchise relocated to Colorado that the Avs and Canucks are not competing in the same division.
