PHILADELPHIA -- After a terrible start, the Philadelphia Flyers are back on track. Kimmo Timonen had a goal and two assists, Steve Mason made 32 saves and the Flyers beat the Ottawa Senators 5-2 Tuesday night. Claude Giroux, Sean Couturier, Wayne Simmonds and Adam Hall also scored for Philadelphia, which is 4-0-1 in its last five games after a 4-10-1 start. "When you skate hard, create chances, good things will happen," Timonen said. "The team looks good right now. A lot of things are going well for us now and we have to keep it going." Clarke MacArthur and Kyle Turris each had a power-play goal for the Senators, who have lost two in a row. Timonen and Simmonds scored 23 seconds apart to snap a 2-all tie in the third period. First, Timonen got his first goal of the season on a nifty move to give the Flyers a 3-2 lead. He skated in from the left side and stuffed a backhander past Robin Lehner. Simmonds then scored on a turnaround slap shot from the slot, and Mason stoned Turris on a penalty shot with 5:06 left to preserve the two-goal cushion. "Confidence is a big thing," Flyers coach Craig Berube said. "Our top players are producing, getting points and feeling good about themselves." Coming off a 2-0-1 road trip that included a 5-0 win at Ottawa, the Flyers jumped out to a 2-0 lead before letting the Senators back in it. Turris had a chance to give Ottawa the lead with a wide-open net midway through the third, but defenceman Nicklas Grossmann made a double-skate save in the crease. The play was reviewed after the next stoppage and upheld. The puck hit Grossmanns left skate, bounced off his right skate and out. "I tried to get some guys out of the crease and I just felt the puck hit my left foot," Grossmann said. "It was more lucky than reflex." Timonen and Simmonds scored shortly after a long stop for the video review. Down 2-0 for the 11th time in 21 games, the Senators started their comeback in the second period when MacArthur fired a top-shelf shot from inside the left circle through a screen and over Masons shoulder. It stayed 2-1 until the third period when Turris scored 10 seconds into Ottawas fifth power-play chance. Turris backhanded a bouncing puck past Mason to tie it at 2. "We had an opportunity with 10 minutes left in the game and the score tied and we didnt respond well," Senators coach Paul MacLean said. The Flyers went ahead 1-0 after killing consecutive penalties that included a 12-second overlap. Giroux scored a power-play goal with 2:16 left in the first period off a perfect pass by Jakub Voracek, who faked a shot from the right circle and slid the puck across the ice. Giroux ripped it over defenceman Chris Phillips and past the sprawled Lehner. It was only the second goal of the season for Giroux, and the Flyers captain celebrated by kissing his stick on the bench. Couturier made it 2-0 early in the second by ending a 25-game goal drought. He took a shot from below the goal line that bounced off the post, hit Lehners right skate and went in. "It feels good. I feel 20 pounds lighter," Couturier said. "Ive had some quality chances lately and it feels good to finally get one in." NOTES: Voracek has six points (two goals, four assists) in his last five games. ... Giroux didnt have any goals in the first 15 games before getting two in the last five. ... Lehner started over Craig Anderson, who lost to the Flyers last week and has allowed 11 goals in his last three games. ... The Senators have allowed the first goal in 14 consecutive games. ... Couturier hadnt scored a goal since April 15. ... Mason hasnt allowed more than three goals in his 21 starts since joining the Flyers in a trade last April.

United on Saturday night. The Timbers (7-15-9), eighth in the Western Conference, avoided elimination from the post-season race. Chris Pontius scored on a penalty kick in the 60th minute to give United (15-10-6) the lead. D.C. snapped a three-game winning streak and dropped to fourth place in the Eastern Conference. United began the day tied with New York for third, but the Red Bulls beat Toronto to pull into a tie with Chicago for second. Pontiuss 12th goal of the season came after a hand ball call on Timbers defender David Horst, which had several Timbers in the referees face. Horst was given a yellow card and Timbers fans shouted boos and expletives on the officials. The officials were also booed as they left the field after the game. Timbers owner Merritt Paulson took off after the officials, appearing to yell his disapproval and a bottle thrown from the stands came close to hitting the crew. Portland outplayed Unnited for long stretches, had 14 shots on goal and made goalkeeper Bill Hamid work hard.dddddddddddd United had some close calls near the end of the first half. Dike had a clear shot that went wide after defender Chris Korb accidently passed the ball to him in the 40th minute. In the 44th, Hamid had a ball bounce out of his hands and nearly cross the goal line before he snagged it. Hamid had four saves in the first half. The Timbers, winless on the road this season, are a tough to beat at Jeld-Wen Field, where they have won against top clubs such as Chicago, Sporting Kansas City and San Jose this season. Portland had had seen encouraging play in its last three matches -- a home draw with Seattle, a road draw at San Jose and a 2-1 loss at Real Salt Lake last Saturday. Portland goalkeeper Joe Bendik started for the third consecutive game, as starter Donovan Ricketts remains out with a shoulder injury sustained against Seattle. United was playing on artificial turf for the first time since April at New England. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
