EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- While Odell Beckham Jr. probably must wait at least another week to play in a game with Victor Cruz, the thought of being on the same field with him and rookie Sterling Shepard is exciting.If all three can play, the Giants passing game has the potential to be very special.There is no doubt Beckham will continue to draw the double coverages, but that should help Cruz and Shepard, and make things a little easier for Eli Manning.Cruz, who missed all of last season with a calf injury, did not work Wednesday as the Giants held their final practice before Fridays preseason opener against the Miami Dolphins at MetLife Stadium.Coach Ben McAdoo was not available to update Cruzs status after practice, and offensive coordinator Mike Sullivan would not comment on his status.Beckham is ready, though, and so is Shepard, the second-round draft pick listed as a starter on the depth chart for the game.You put two people on me and you have one on one with them and I would take them one on one pretty much against anyone out there, so its going to be a lot of fun, Beckham said after practice.Beckham has had almost nothing but fun since joining the Giants two years ago. Despite missing the first four games in his rookie season with a hamstring injury, the flamboyant wide receiver has 187 catches for 2,755 yards and 25 touchdowns, including that memorable one-hander against Dallas as a rookie.This year has even more promise. The defense has been shored up via free agency, and the offense seemingly has some people who can complement Beckham. The six games the Giants lost in the final quarter and overtime in 2015 might now be winnable.I do feel as if this team is working harder, I feel as if we have a better chance at definitely being better than 6-10, and thats obviously the goal, Beckham said. One game at a time. You want to be playing on February 5 in Houston.After resting in the offseason, Beckham hopes to be more patient this year. He wants to run his routes better and be there for the new guys when they need help.Year in and year out, there is going to be something that I find to improve on and get better on, Beckham said. No matter what I do the year before, its always going to be what can I do to be better than last year?Sullivan called Beckham a special talent.I think when you are at practice, you guys witness, but mostly the fans or people who dont have the chance to come and see, how hard the guy works, Sullivan told reporters. He really loves practice, he loves to compete, and he loves to play and work, and we continue to try to push him in terms of expanding his versatility.Neither Beckham nor Sullivan is worried about Cruzs latest injury. He was limited to six games in 2014 by a knee injury and lost all of last year with the calf problem.I keep reminding him that his first game is Sept. 11, even though you have to get your feet wet in the preseason, Beckham said of Cruz. Again, I hate saying that, but its irrelevant. You could go for 200 yards and none of it is going to matter. You could go for zero yards and none of it is going to matter. All that matters is that youre prepared for Week 1.Beckham is ready now.Game notes PK Josh Brown kicked roughly a 63-yard field goal in the rain in practice. ...

The Arizona Coyotes havent been to the playoffs in four straight seasons and their prospects of ending that streak dont appear promising as points appear hard to come by.A safe bet is that they circle every date on the schedule against the Edmonton Oilers.The Coyotes try to record a point in their 25th straight game against the Oilers when the teams meet for the first time at Rogers Place on Sunday afternoon in the back end of a home-and-home series.Arizona (7-10-2) is 14th -- and last -- in the Western Conference with 16 points, and its defense was lit up for 39 goals while going 2-6-2 on the road.But since dropping a 4-3 decision in regulation on Jan. 25, 2011, the Coyotes are 20-0-4 against the Oilers. Arizonas point streak is the longest by one team against a single opponent since the Oilers 24-game run against the Vancouver Canucks from 1985-88.We have to outwork them, Coyotes defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson said. I think thats why weve been successful against them.Arizona continued the streak with a 3-2 shootout victory Friday. Longtime captain Shane Doan tied the score midway through the third period and Radim Vrbata and Ekman-Larsson scored in the tiebreaker.Oilers coach Todd McLellan praised Arizona for its approach to games.I dont know if a team ever has another teams number because every event is its own entity, but the Coyotes wait for teams to make mistakes and they capitalize, McLellan told the Edmonton Journal.Oilers captain Connor McDavid recorded his first NHL hat trick earlier this month to start a scoring tear. With a goal against the Coyotes on Friday, McDavid has five goals and four assists in a four-game points streak, and leads the league with 28 points (10 goals, 18 assists).However, only 11 of those points (three goals, eight assists) have come at home. McDavid has failed to score a goal in five straight games in Edmonton, yet has six assists over that span.WWe need to get two (points) against divisional teams, said McDavid, whose team is 3-2-1 against Pacific foes this season.dddddddddddd.McDavid is not the only Oiler to show up repeatedly in recent boxscores. Over the last four games, Leon Draisaitl (three goals, three assists) and Milan Lucic (one goal, five assists) each have six points, while Jordan Eberle (two goals, two assists), Oscar Klefbom (two goals, two assists) and rookie Jesse Puljujarvi (four assists) each have four points.The Oilers need their offense to come through. Edmonton (12-8-2) is 5-4-0 at home, but 0-4-0 when scoring fewer than three goals per game.The Oilers tweeted Saturday that Cam Talbot will start in goal. Talbot is 11-7-2 with a 2.47 goals-against average, a .921 save percentage and three shutouts. Hes given up nine goals while going 0-2-1 over his last three starts versus Arizona.Doans goal Friday was only his second of the season and pushed him closer to a milestone. Now in his 21st season -- all with the Coyotes franchise dating back their final campaign in Winnipeg -- Doan needs two goals to become the 93rd player in NHL history to reach 400.Doan has nine goals in 37 career games in Edmonton, but none in his last six visits. Hes also posted two multi-goal games, the last coming in 2010.Mike Smith is 3-1-1 with a 2.96 GAA and .911 save percentage after Fridays win over the Oilers in which he denied McDavid and Eberle in the tiebreaker.Playing at Rexall Place, the Oilers former longtime home, Smith was 7-0-1 with a 1.93 GAA and .942 save percentage in nine games. His only shutout in northern Alberta came on March 12, when he turned aside 44 shots in the Coyotes 4-0 win.Now we have to go in there and play even better to win in Edmonton, Ekman-Larsson told the Arizona Republic.
