Pittsburgh, PA (SportsNetwork. Markus Wheaton Jersey .com) - Patric Hornqvist returned to the lineup and scored the game-winning goal during the third period to lift the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 5-3 win over Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday. Hornqvist, who missed 11 games due to a lower-body injury, finished with two goals, David Perron had a goal and an assist and Steve Downie and Nick Spaling also scored for the Penguins, who ended a four-game skid. I thought we were playing a great game, Pittsburgh head coach Mike Johnston said. Wins are critical, but its how your team is playing. Kris Letang also came back for Pittsburgh after sitting out the final game prior to the All-Star break with a concussion and tallied a career-high five assists. Thomas Greiss made 19 saves in the win. Adam Lowry and Chris Thorburn each posted a goal and an assist. Jacob Trouba also lit the lamp and Evander Kane supplied three helpers as the Jets five- game winning streak came to an end. Ondrej Pavelec stopped 25 shots in defeat. We were able to get a couple leads throughout the course of the game, but werent able to hold them, said Thorburn. Its unfortunate. Pittsburgh has won its last six games against the Jets and owns a 14-game unbeaten streak at home against them that dates back to March 24, 2007, when they were the Atlanta Thrashers. Hornqvist put the Penguins ahead for good on the power play as he was stationed in front and whacked the puck past Greiss for a 4-3 Penguins lead 7:52 into the third period. Winnipeg pulled Pavelec with over a minute remaining and Hornqvist scored on the empty net with 28 seconds left to seal the win. Perron skated down below the goal line and slipped a pass into the slot, where Spaling tapped the puck into the net to open the scoring 7:09 into the game. Just over two minutes into the second, Thorburn crashed the net and tipped in Lowrys lead pass past Greiss blocker for a tied game. Winnipeg went in front 2-1 on Troubas blast from the point that went past a screened Greiss with 7:13 remaining in the middle stanza. Letang blasted a shot from the right circle and Downie buried the rebound past Pavelec for a tied game with 4.6 seconds left in the second. The Jets didnt wait long to reclaim their lead as Lowry beat Greiss with a wrister 59 seconds into the final frame, but Perron tipped the puck through the pads of Pavelec for a power-play goal and a 3-3 score at 4:23. Game Notes Pittsburgh forwards Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin were both absent from the lineup due to lower-body injuries ...

In the second set she was playing so great and in the final set we were fighting each other." Several womens matches scheduled for Wednesday were pushed back a day due to the wet weather. Among those included in the postponements was world No. 1 and defending champion Serena Williams. Her second-round match against Kazakhstans Galina Voskoboeva was postponed until Thursday. Third seed Agnieszka Radwanska and fifth-seeded Li Na were a pair of winners. Venus, whose match started late afternoon and lasted into the night at Louis Armstrong Stadium, was delayed a couple of minutes with the third set even, 5-5, due to drizzling conditions. The American rallied from a 4-1 deficit in the tiebreaker, but was set back due to 44 unforced errors. She equaled the tiebreaker, 5-5, when Zheng sent a return long. Venus then tried a backhand at the net, but never got it over. Zheng secured a third-round berth when Venus sent a backhand wide. "Today was tough," Zheng said of the rain. "In the second set I lost my concentration. She played so great." NNext up for Zheng will be 18th-seeded Spaniard Carla Suarez Navarro, who dropped American Coco Vandeweghe 6-3, 6-4.
