BUFFALO, N.
Alan Page Vikings Jersey .Y. -- None too
happy about Paul Ranger trying to kick the puck past him in the shootout,
Buffalo Sabres goaltender Jhonas Enroth slashed the Toronto Maple Leafs
defenceman as he skated by. "My first reaction was that he tried to embarrass me
there a little bit, but when I look at it now, its good (the) guys trying to be
creative, I guess," he said. Enroth had plenty of time to think because the
shootout went an incredible 15 rounds, including 29 combined shooters who didnt
score a goal. When it was over the Leafs had a 3-2 victory Saturday night thanks
to Jay McClements winner, but the Sabres got their kicks out of the pre-season
marathon. "At one point I think both refs were just going to call it a draw and
kind of pick up the puck and go home and be old-school NHL there for a second
and call it a tie," Sabres forward Steve Ott said. "But both performances by
both goalies in the shootout was pretty spectacular to watch. Ive never seen
that before." Leafs goaltender James Reimer stopped all 15 shots he saw after
making 38 saves in regulation and overtime. Reimer went 0 for 5 in shootouts
last season with a .625 save percentage, and wasnt making much of this. "Its
good to get out there and for me to stop some pucks and for guys to get some
reps, but its exhibition and its a little looser," Reimer said. "I think its a
little different when its during a game and two points are on the line." Ranger
probably wouldnt have tried this in a real game. He learned his "kick shot" from
a friend at the age of 10 or 11 and perfected it enough that it beat goalies in
practice plenty. "Its gotten to the point where I can rip it pretty good, I feel
like," he said. "The cool part of it is I have no idea where its going, and the
goalie doesnt either because I sure dont." Asked about Enroths slash and the
idea that it was not the right thing to do, Ranger said: "Not the right thing to
do? Im trying to score. Quite honestly its fun and, to be honest, Im not trying
to show boat, and if he thought that, then it is what it is. Whatever." Ott gave
Ranger credit for the kick being a "pretty heavy shot." But it was a deke by
McClement that finally ended things. "A lot of light-heartenedness taking place
on the bench," Leafs coach Randy Carlyle said. "A lot of guys betting on Jay, so
we waited right till the end." Before the shootout, the game had the chippiness
normally reserved for the regular season. It featured three fights, including
Troy Bodie taking on Patrick Kaleta after the Sabres agitator went after captain
Dion Phaneuf. From the Leafs perspective, Ott started the trouble before that
dust-up. "I think Ott intentionally shot the puck at Dion," Carlyle said. "Thats
what it appeared from where we were. Those are the kind of things that in
exhibition are kind of questionable at this point." The Leafs and Sabres played
on the edge all night. Carlyle said it the 15-round was something he had never
seen before, but even for those with similar experiences this was something
unique. "We had one in Rochester, I think we went through everybody except for
maybe Joe Finley. I think we had a call-up score," Rolston said. "(This one) was
bizarre, especially with no goals."

TAMPA, Fla. -- Valtteri Filppula had two goals and an assist, goalie Ben Bishop
won his 13th game this season and the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Anaheim Ducks
5-1 in a matchup of conference leaders Thursday night. Martin St. Louis added a
goal and two assists for the Lightning, who played their first home game and
second overall -- both victories -- without star Steven Stamkos. The centre, out
indefinitely after breaking his right leg Monday, had surgery Tuesday in Boston
and returned to Florida on Thursday. "Nice to be back home in Tampa," Stamkos
tweeted. "Cant thank all the staff at Mass General enough for all their hard
work and dedication the past four days." Alex Killorn and Victor Hedman had the
other Tampa Bay goals. Emerson Etem scored for the Ducks, who were coming off a
3-2 loss Tuesday night to lowly Florida. Anaheim captain Ryan Getzlaf missed his
third game with an upper-body injury, but coach Bruce Boudreau said the centre
could return Friday at Carolina or Monday against Pittsburgh. Ducks right wing
Corey Perry didnt take part in the morning skate due to the flu, but was in the
lineup. A number of Anaheim players, including starting goalie Jonas Hiller,
have had the flu recently. Filppula and St. Louis, on the power pllay, put the
Lightning up 2-0 on first-period goals.
Terry Bradshaw Steelers Jersey. St. Louis
ended a seven-game goal drought. The Ducks went 13 1/2 minutes before getting a
shot in the first. Bishop made an in-close save late in the period on
Teemu Selanne. The right wing, 11th on the career goals list with 678, has not
scored a goal in his last nine games. Tampa Bay went up 3-0 on Filppulas
power-play goal 3:16 into the second. Killorn made it 4-0 at 10:51 of the
second. Etem pulled Anaheim to 4-1 with 3:53 left in the second. Hedman scored
early in the third. NOTES: Selanne got a 2-minute roughing penalty, his first
infraction of the season, during a second-period scrum that involved Tampa Bay D
Radko Gudas, who made a hard check on him. Gudas was given roughing and holding
minors. ... Lightning D Sami Salo, who missed his second game with a lower-body
injury, could return during a four-game road trip that starts Saturday at
Phoenix. ... Anaheim G Viktor Fasth was the backup after missing 14 game with a
lower-body injury. G Frederik Andersen was reassigned to Norfolk of the AHL. ...
Ducks LW Matt Beleskey (upper-body injury) is playing with Norfolk. ... Selanne,
who plans to retire after this season, scored the second-ever hat trick against
the expansion Lightning on March 9, 1993.
