HONOLULU -- Coming off his most difficult stretch as PGA Tour commissioner, Tim Finchem is ready for four more years. http://www.lightninghockeyshop.us/Jason-Garrison-Jersey/ . Finchem received a four-year contract extension Wednesday, which will keep him in charge of golfs most lucrative tour through 2016. He suggested last year that he might be willing to stay on the job after his contract expired in June 2012, and Finchem said he made up his mind after talking to his wife. Their youngest daughter starts college next year. The 64-year-old Finchem also wanted to get through the most recent television contract, an unprecedented nine-year deal with NBC Sports and CBS Sports. "It was a no-brainer decision," Finchem said. "Its what I do. Plus, we got done with TV. And with a runway for 10 years, I figured we could do some good stuff long term. Im as optimistic as Ive ever been. Finchem was appointed commissioner in 1994. By staying on through 2016, he would be the longest-serving commissioner of the three that have served since the PGA Tour broke away from the PGA of America in 1969. There probably wont be another extension. When told he would be 69 when the new contract is over, Finchem pointed out that 77-year-old Bud Selig just signed on for two more years as commissioner of Major League Baseball; and that Ronald Reagan was 70 when he was elected president, serving two terms. "I never rule out any possibilities," he said. "But the likelihood is this will probably be it for me. Theres other things I want to do." Among other things, Finchem had to respond to Greg Normans proposed world tour in 1994, coming up with the World Golf Championships that began in 1999. There was a small attempt at starting a players union that also was thwarted. Even so, nothing topped the last three years -- a downturn in the economy that put tour sponsorship in doubt, and the downfall of Tiger Woods, though a scandal and leg injuries, which kept him out of the game for two long stretches. Finchem described it "the most trying period." "It was a combination of things," he said. "It wasnt just a downturn; we had bankruptcies going on. This plays into TV. We had the No. 1 player not playing a lot. That plays into television. There was an extra level of concern. It wasnt a big downer. It was just hard work." http://www.lightninghockeyshop.us/Alex-Killorn-Jersey/ . -- For the second consecutive night, the Memphis Grizzlies slowed down Houston and walked away with a win. Jonathan Drouin Lightning Jersey . The loss completed Ottawas opening round series victory and sent the Northeast Division-winning Habs to the dressing room to pack after just five games. http://www.lightninghockeyshop.us/Anton-Stralman-Jersey/ . The NBA announced the penalty Friday, two days after Carter threw an elbow and made contact with the head of Oklahoma City centre Steven Adams.Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Jakob Silfverberg scored the only goal in the shootout, lifting the Anaheim Ducks to a 3-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings at the Staples Center. Silfverberg was Anaheims second shooter in the final phase and snapped a low shot past Jonathan Quick on the blocker side. He is 7-for-11 this season in shootouts. I wanted to switch it up a little bit, said Silfverberg about his shootout attempt. I was going glove side a lot (recently). Frederik Andersen then stopped Marian Gaboriks backhand attempt to give Anaheim the extra point. Andersen also turned aside Jeff Carter and Anze Kopitar earlier in the shootout and finished the contest with 26 saves. Sami Vatanen scored the tying goal in the third period for the Ducks, who have won four in a row and six of their last seven. Anaheim just completed a 6-2-0 homestand and played on the road for the first time since Dec. 27 at Arizona. Kopitar and Alec Martinez scored for Los Angeles, which was coming off a home loss to New Jersey on Wednesday and fell to 1-2-3 in its last six games -- all at the Staples Center. Quick finished with 29 saves in defeat. The Kings retired the No. 4 jersey of Rob Blake in a lengthy ceremony before the game. Family members and former teammates were on hand to honor Blake, who spent parts of 14 seasons with the Kings. I thought it was a great ceremony, Blake said. For me it was able to see the current Kings and to see some of the old Kings lined up. After a scoreless first period that featured 10 shots for each team, the Kings scored first at the 8:54 mark of the second on Martinezs fifth goal. His right pooint blast deflected off the arm of Anaheims Kyle Palmieri and fluttered past Andersen. Brian Boyle Lightning Jersey. . The Ducks tied it with 5:41 remaining in the second after controlling a left faceoff draw. Patrick Maroon had the first whack at the rebound of a Corey Perry shot, freeing up the puck for Ryan Getzlaf, who flipped it home for his 14th goal. Los Angeles, though, cashed in a power play with 1:33 to play in the period, as Kopitar fired a shot into a wide open net from the right of the crease after a perfect feed from Gaborik below the left circle. Anaheim converted a power play with just over seven minutes left in the third period to again tie it. Vatanens shot from the top of the right circle glanced off Los Angeles defenseman Matt Greene before bouncing past Quick. You want to win those games, said Getzlaf. We were composed when times were tough and cane through. Game Notes Each of the meetings this season between the southern California rivals has been decided beyond regulation.
