MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- After sleep-walking through the first half, the Grizzlies managed to wake up in time to claim their fifth straight victory at home. Zach Randolph had 23 points and 14 rebounds, and Memphis used a big second half to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 110-96 Saturday night. "Coach just stated the obvious -- that we cant let a team come in here and dominate us on both ends of the court," Memphis guard Mike Conley said of Dave Joergers halftime speech. "We just went out there and tried to be aggressive defensively." Randolph had 17 points in the second half to help Memphis outscore Cleveland 56-31 and rally from an early 15-point deficit. Conley and Marc Gasol scored 22 each for the Grizzlies. Conley added seven assists and Gasol had six. Courtney Lee finished with 19 points, including a career-high five 3-pointers, and Tony Allen had 16 points on 7-of-10 shooting. "Sometimes its just him getting himself going," Gasol said of Randolph in the second half. "Hes so hard to stop that no matter what they try to do its just Zach being Zach." Kyrie Irving led the Cavaliers with 28 points on 11-of-19 shooting, while Tristan Thompson was 8 of 10 for 18 points. Spencer Hawes had 13 points and Luol Deng 11. "Guys are going to make runs," Irving said. "They made their run. They had a hit-first mentality going into that second half." Memphis took control with its big third quarter and led by 91-83 with 8:56 left in the fourth. The Cavaliers used six straight points from Irving to pull within 95-94 with 4:03 left. But a baseline 8-footer by Randolph and a 3-pointer from Conley restored Memphis cushion. By the time Gasol scored on a hook shot with 1:13 left the Grizzlies lead was in double digits. "It was effort, energy and focus," Joerger said of the second-half effort that held the Cavaliers to 34 per cent shooting. ".We were making one, two or three efforts. The energy picked up, and we made multiple efforts. They didnt have a lot of second chances." The Cavaliers dominated the first half, leading by as many as 15 points and taking a 65-54 lead into the break. The Grizzlies provided little resistance and Cleveland shot just under 70 per cent for much of the half before going to the locker room at 61 per cent. "In the first half we were the ones who were more physical," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. "We were the ones hitting first." The energy and intensity increased for Memphis to open the second half and that translated into a 21-8 run to overtake Cleveland just past the midway point of the third. At that point, Cleveland had committed five turnovers in the quarter. Memphis would stretch the run to 26-8, including 17 straight points, for an 80-73 lead that became an 87-80 advantage entering the final frame. "There were positives from it," Irving said. "We fought hard to the end with the exception of the last 3 minutes. We can live with the effort." NOTES: Irving has scored at least 20 points in 17 of last 23 games. ... The Cavaliers 65 points in the first half were the most scored by a Memphis opponent in a half this season. The previous high was 62 in the second half by Dallas on Nov. 2. ... Gasol hit a shot at the end of the first quarter from beyond half court and banked it in. It was shown on the score sheet as 60 feet. It was his first 3-pointer of the season. ... The Cavaliers last won in Memphis on Jan. 13, 2009. ... The game was the nightcap of a doubleheader at the FedExForum. Earlier in the day, No. 21 Memphis defeated seventh-ranked Louisville 72-66.

Quick to the puck and even quicker to the net, the Penguins top line overwhelmed the suddenly struggling Stars as Pittsburgh bounced back from a dismal weekend sweep at the hands of Philadelphia by jumping on Dallas early.

Winners of two straight, the Flames will try to become the first team in 25 years to go three consecutive games without taking a penalty Saturday night in San Jose.American Thanksgiving is the point of the NHL schedule where teams take stock of where they are in the standings. Some have met expectations, others not so much. Same with players and we take a look at those who are deserving of an extra helping of acknowledgement with quarter-season awards and honours. Best Player Rank Player GP G A PTS +/- 1 Sidney Crosby (PIT) 20 9 20 29 +6 2 Tyler Seguin (DAL) 22 17 11 28 +6 3 Steven Stamkos (TB) 22 14 10 24 +2 Crosby has been the best and remains the best. Seguin is getting better. Building upon an outstanding 2013-14 season, the thought of him not yet reaching his full potential has to make opponents shudder at what he may be capable of doing. Stamkos may not have eye-popping numbers but his game has become more complete and he impacts without having to score. Sounds like his GM, Steve Yzerman. Hart Trophy Rank Player GP G A PTS +/- 1 Mark Giordano (CGY) 23 6 18 24 +11 2 Sidney Crosby (PIT) 20 9 20 29 +6 3 Vladimir Tarasenko (STL) 22 12 11 23 +15 Giordano has been outstanding for the Flames. What he does on a game in game out basis has allowed the Flames to rekindle thoughts of the playoffs. Vladimir Tarasenko gives the Blues something they haven’t had since Brett Hull. A scoring threat who can win games single-handed.

Enough said. Where would the Kings be without Quick? He has stolen points for a team that has uncharacteristically surrendered lots of shots. Halak is one part of Garth Snow’s off-season moves that has allowed the Islanders to be one of the NHL’s best teams. His overall numbers may not reflect his importance but the last seven games he has played certainly do. Norris Trophy Rank Player GP G A PTS +/- 1 Mark Giordano (CGY) 23 6 18 24 +11 2 T.J. Brodie (CGY) 23 5 13 18 +13 3 Shea Weber (NAS) 21 6 7 13 +9 If you are the MVP, then it follows you are the best defenceman. Brodie deserves accolades for forming a duo that is arguably the NHL’s best defence tandem. His abilities complement Giordano and he has been a huge catalyst for the Flames’ success. Weber will remain in the Norris discussion for the foreseeable future. Nicklas Lidstrom began his annual hold on the Norris Trophy at the age of 31 and Weber is looking to follow suit as a top defenceman in his thirties. Best Defensive Defenceman Rank Player GP PTS ATOI +/- 1 Shea Weber (NAS) 21 13 26:59 +9 2 Ryan Suter (MIN) 20 11 29:13 +13 3 Duncan Keith (CHI) 21 13 25:27 +2 Weber is known for his tremendous shot but his defensive game is outstanding. Suter continues to master the balancing act of high minutes and superb play. A two-time Norris Trophy winner, Keith begins with defensive play that is a foundation of his overall success.

Can Gaudreau follow a Hobey Baker Award with a Calder? That is the question now, not whether or not he can play in the NHL. Klingberg has been outstanding in his first eight games in the NHL. The sample size is small but if his play continues over the longer haul, he will move himself into top contending status. Lady Byng Trophy Rank Player GP G A PTS PIM 1 Henrik Sedin (VAN) 22 5 16 21 2 2 Jakub Voracek (PHI) 20 7 22 29 6 3 Patric Hornqvist (PIT) 20 10 14 24 6 Sedin is producing again. He may epitomize the Lady Byng Trophy; a determined competitor who does it in a ‘within the rules’ framework. The interesting aspect of both Voracek’s and Hornqvist’s games is that they play with a power element. Playing that style is not conducive to Lady Byng consideration but perhaps the times they are a-changing. Frank J.

In Jonathan’s case one builds off of the other. Carter may be a surprise but since his move to centre ice, he has shown to be an exemplary defensive player. Given that he has worked with two relatively young wingers in Tanner Pearson and Tyler Toffoli, his all-around game deserves recognition. Top General Manager Rank GM GP W-L-OT PTS 2013-14 FINISH 1 Garth Snow (NYI) 21 15-6-0 30 34-37-5 2 David Poile (NAS) 21 14-5-2 30 38-32-3 3 Jim Benning (VAN) 22 15-6-1 31 36-35-4 The Islanders are where they are in the standings because of Snow. His off-season moves have proven to be exactly what the Islanders needed. Experienced forwards, an accomplished goalie who stabilizes the position and the coup-de-grace in acquiring Nick Leddy and Johnny Boychuk on the eve of the season, have shown him to be both calculating and bold. Poile has added key offensive players to the Predators. The trade for Filip Forsberg in March, 2013 is one of the decade’s very best and along with James Neal and taking a chance on Mike Ribiero, Nashville doesn’t have to hope for scoring they can generate it. Jim Benning took over a franchise that many thought no longer had a ‘window’ to compete for a Stanley Cup. Hiring Willie Desjardins, navigating a very tricky situation with Ryan Kesler, shoring up the goaltending with the signing of Ryan Miller and adding Radim Vrbata to play with the Sedins has allowed the Canucks to return to form. Jack Adams Award Rank Coach GP W-L-OT PTS 2013-14 FINISH 1 Bob Hartley (CGY) 23 13-8-2 28 35-40-4 2 Willie Desjardins (VAN) 22 15-6-1 31 36-35-4 3 Michel Therrien (MTL) 23 16-6-1 33 46-28-5 Hartley has high expectations so regardless of what others’ expectations were for the Flames, he has done a magnificent job. Keep in mind that he has lost three centres to injury: Matt Stajan, Mikael Backlund and Joe Colborne and they continue their winning ways. Desjardins led the Texas Stars to the Calder Cup championship last season and is showing a deft touch with the Canucks. Hopes have rebounded for the team in Vancouver. Expectations may not have been higher anywhere than in Montreal after the run to the Conference Final last season. The Canadiens are showing they are a team that don’t rely on any one player and their coach has instilled a belief in the team that they can be better than last year.
