COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Justin Meram and Ryan Finley had been finding little success around the net this season. Colby Rasmus Jersey . The recent coaching change in Columbus could have a positive effect if Wednesday night was any indication. Meram and Finley each had a goal and an assist to lead the Crew to a 2-0 win over the Houston Dynamo in the debut match for Columbus interim coach Brian Bliss. Bliss, who remains the teams technical director in charge of player personnel, moved into the coaching job after Robert Warzycha was fired Monday in his fifth season. "When youre coaching youve got a little more invested for 90 minutes than when youre sitting up in the box as the technical director," Bliss said. Meram set up Finleys goal in the 47th minute then added his first of the season in the 74th with a strike from the left side of the box to the far post, helping the Crew (9-13-5) end a two-game skid. Finleys goal came off a pass from the left flank by Meram, who redirected the ball from about six yards out. "Justin made a great play," Finley said. "It was a pretty easy tap-in. Once you get the first goal hopefully more will come." Three minutes after Finley put the Crew ahead, his penalty kick was denied by Tally Hall. Houston (10-9-7) fell to 0-2-1 in its past three matches. "Anytime theres a coaching change youre going to see guys fighting," Houston goalkeepers coach Tim Hanley said. "They want to impress. That part didnt surprise us. We had some really good chances early but we didnt capitalize." With normal PK taker Federico Higuain suspended, Bliss let Finley take it for the first time. "I wish I had that one back," Finley said. "He made a pretty good save. I thought I struck it well. I probably wont be taking many more PKs from now on." Finley got off the hook when Meram scored moments after hitting the crossbar with a shot. "Honestly, I was thinking probably not the way things were going," Finley said when asked if he was worried about not scoring this season. "Its a little bit of a relief." Still, he credited a goal-line save by Crew defender Chad Barson off a Will Bruin shot 40 seconds into the match for setting the tone. "I dont think any of this would have happened without his hard work," Meram said. "Thats an unbelievable play." Frank Robinson Jersey .

Louis Cardinals have agreed to a one-year contract.VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Canucks acquired a new top-tier goaltender Tuesday, signing free agent Ryan Miller to a three-year deal worth US$18 million. The Canucks needed a proven netminder after trading Cory Schneider and Roberto Luongo in the past 13 months and missing the playoffs this season. Miller was seen as the best goalie on the free-agent market. "I felt it was important to get a goalie with experience," said Canucks general manager Jim Benning. "Over the years hes played a lot of games. He gives us that experience that we need." Benning is familiar with the 33-year-old Miller, having worked in Buffalos scouting department when the Sabres drafted the player in 1999. "Hes intense and focused," said Benning. "Our younger players are going to see the way he works in practice, how hard be practises. Its going to make them better players." The St. Louis Blues acquired Miller from Buffalo in February, hoping he could lead them deep into the playoffs. But the club was eliminated by the Blackhawks in the first round after Miller allowed 19 goals and posted a lacklustre .897 save percentage. He posted a 25-30-4 record with a 2.64 goals-against average and .918 save percentage this season. He has 2994 wins, a 2.

"I think Im still developing into the best player I can be," he said. "I take that part of hockey seriously, finding new things to add my game and taking consideration and coaching from other people." Miller said he has a fondness for Vancouver, especially after playing for the U.S. during the 2010 Winter Games. Sidney Crosby scored on Miller in overtime to lead Canada to victory in the Olympic gold-medal game at Rogers Arena. "Ive had a chance to experience Vancouver over the years and have always been blown away by the amount of support the fans the fans bring out and how great the crowds have been, also how kind the people have treated me over the years, especially during the Olympics," he said. "Its a great city for hockey, a great city to live in," he added. Benning has been busy over the past few days after trading forward Ryan Kesler just prior to the NHL draft. Its all part of a major rebuild for the Canucks, who have a new president in Trevor Linden, a new GM in Benning and a new coach in Willie Desjardins.
