He last pitched in 2013 when he made two starts for Los Angeles. Billingsley has pitched eight seasons in the majors, all with the Dodgers. He owns an 81-61 record and a 3.65 ERA in 1,175 1/3 innings with 1,037 strikeouts. In 2009, he was named to his only career All-Star game.

I was happy with the way my game was in Arizona so I wanted to really concentrate on sticking with the same things I was doing there that was helping me be successful there.Dubynks best stops came in the third period as the Flames — who lead the NHL with eight wins when trailing after two periods, generated several dangerous chances in trying to pull out yet another comeback win.Six minutes in, Johnny Gaudreau got around Jared Spurgeon and fired a dangerous wrist shot at the top corner that Dubnyk caught with his glove. With six minutes left in the period, Dubnyk thwarted Paul Byron on a clear breakaway.Then, as the final couple seconds ticked off the clock, he jabbed out his pad to rob Mikael Backlund at the side of the net.After the game, Dubnyk was asked which chances stood out.I think the breakaway is the obvious one, he said. They kept trying to stretch guys and finally got one. I got a toe on the puck with about two seconds left at the side of the net. I guess that probably turned out to be the most important one.The 2004 first round draft pick by the Edmonton Oilers was acquired from the Coyotes on Jan. 14 in exchange for a third round draft pick. Minnesota is his fourth team in the past two years.Dubnyk provided the stability in net that the Wild were not getting from Darcy Kuemper or Niklas Backstrom. With five out of six points so far, Minnesota wraps up its four-game road trrip Sunday in Vancouver.ddddddddddddI think we owe a lot to Dubnyk tonight. He bailed us out on a lot of different breakdowns we had. He was really good, said Parise. Weve got a long ways to go but playing against these guys tonight, like we said this morning, five looks a lot better than nine had we lost this game. Its a good start to the trip.Calgary (26-20-3) falls to 1-1 on a six-game homestand, which continues Saturday against the Edmonton Oilers.Close, man, said Calgary defenceman Mark Giordano. (Jonas Hiller) played awesome. Their guy played awesome. One bad mistake — I made a bad one in the first there — and they get a goal. At the end of the night, thats the mistake that cost us.The goal, Parises 20th goal of the season and sixth in his last six game, came at 8:59 of the first period.Attempting to send a cross-ice pass from his own corner, Giordanos pass was knocked down by Thomas Vanek and immediately picked up by Parise all alone in front, who quickly tucked a shot through Hillers pads.It was the first time Calgary has been shutout this season after going 71 games since last being blanked.Hiller, spectacular at times himself, finished with 31 stops to fall to 14-14-2.It was one of those nights — I thought Dubnyk played well and we didnt get the bounces. It happens, said Hiller. We have to stay positive. I thought we played well. If we play like that every night, we have a chance every night and thats what we need.Notes: Just called up from Iowa (AHL), Minnesota D Matt Dumba played in his hometown for the first time in his NHL career. His parents and brother were in attendance... Dumba took the spot of Christian Folin, who along with Erik Haula were healthy scratches... Byron has gone 28 games without a goal while LW Brandon Bollig has no goals on the season in 41 games... The Flames have scored 59 third period goals, tied with Tampa Bay for most in the NHL. Theyve only given up 32. ' ' '
