VANCOUVER -- The Vancouver Canucks werent about to pin Sundays loss on the
officials.

Still, it didnt stop them from letting off some steam. Henrik Sedins
second-period goal was controversially waved off for "incidental contact" on
Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen as the Canucks scoring struggles continued in a 2-1
loss to Dallas. Down 1-0 after the first, Vancouver looked to have tied the
score at 6:42 of the second when Vancouvers captain beat Lehtonen upstairs from
a sharp angle on a power play. But the celebrations were short-lived after
officials deemed that Daniel Sedin had interfered with Lehtonen. Television
replays appeared to show no contact between the two players, which left both the
crowd at Rogers Arena and Canucks coach John Tortorella incensed. "Its a bad
call. Its a made-up call," said a frustrated Henrik Sedin. "If its a 50-50 call,
then I buy it. If its a 40-60, I buy it. Even a 20-80 (call) ... tough to take."
Tortorella said he never got an explanation, but added that the NHL needs to
change how it reviews goals. "Im not going to whine about this and that. Its a
huge call that was the wrong call, but doesnt determine the winning and losing
of the hockey game," said Tortorella, whose team has scored just four goals in
losing four straight. "If you dont see it, dont call it. "You have to be sure on
that play and I just dont think they were sure. It was the wrong call." Added
Daniel Sedin: "Its tough, but the chances we had today, we have to score more
than one goal. That shouldnt be the difference." Even Lehtonen, who was
brilliant in a 42-save performance against the snake-bitten Canucks, was
surprised the goal was waved off. "It happens so fast," he said. "I wish they
would maybe use some video replay or something just to make (the calls) right."
Valeri Nichushkin and Erik Cole had the goals for Dallas (11-7-2), which was
coming off a 7-3 victory over the Calgary Flames on Thursday and extended its
road winning streak to six games. Henrik Sedin eventually did score in the third
period for Vancouver (11-8-3), which got 21 saves from Roberto Luongo as the
Canucks fell to 4-4-1 at home. "Youve just got to play. Thats the bottom line,"
said Luongo. "Sometimes things go your way, sometimes they dont but you cant let
that stuff affect you in a negative way on the ice." After Lehtonen held the
Dallas fort in a second period that saw Vancouver hold a 20-5 edge in shots,
Cole made it 2-0 early in the third. Henrik Sedin made a bad decision to step up
at the Stars blue-line while covering for a pinching Kevin Bieksa, with Cole
scoring his second of the season at 1:42 on the resulting 2-on-1. Henrik Sedin
finally got Vancouver on the scoreboard at 3:06 when he chipped a shot over
Lehtonen with the Canucks on the power play for his fourth of the campaign.
Vancouver made a late push, but Lehtonen wasnt really troubled much the rest of
the way in recording his 10th win of the season as the Canucks mustered just 10
shots in the final period. "Were professionals. Weve got to start burying those
chances. Really, enoughs enough," said Canucks forward Ryan Kesler, who played
his 600th career game. "We have to bear down and not get frustrated, but we have
to capitalize. Thats on us." The Canucks 28th-ranked power play had another
chance on the same man advantage after the disallowed goal in the second period,
but Lehtonen made a great stop on Bieksa. Canucks forward Alexandre Burrows then
redirected a pass from Henrik Sedin that beat Lehtonon but not the post as
Vancouver led 33-13 on the shot clock after 40 minutes. "Weve done it a couple
different ways on this road trip," said Cole. "Kari was great for us tonight.
You could tell he had great focus and was on his game, and really weathered the
storm in the second period. "Hes been fantastic. Night after night he continues
to surprise even us making unbelievable saves." Another bright spot for the
Stars has been their top line, which continued its recent hot streak when
Nichushkin opened the scoring at 9:33 of the first period. Benn worked the puck
behind the net to Tyler Seguin, who in turn fed the 18-year-old Russian on
Luongos doorstep for his second of the season. Seguin had four goals and an
assist against Calgary on Thursday, Benn finished with a goal and five assists,
and Nichushkin picked up two assists. "They have been real good," said Stars
head coach Lindy Ruff. "They had a couple really good opportunities they didnt
convert on, but we know it isnt going to keep going at this pace. I hope it
does, but it probably wont." Vancouver, which was coming off a 2-1 overtime loss
to the San Jose Sharks on Thursday, nearly grabbed an early lead on a
Henrik Sedin breakaway that was stopped by Lehtonen less than a minute in. "I
thought our team played hard," said Tortorella. "We just need to stay within
ourselves and keep on playing and not get frustrated and not let it get to us.
"Its not about blowing things up, its a matter of staying with it." Notes:
Seguin now has points in four straight games (six goals, two assists). ... Benn
was the first Stars player to record six points in game since Mike Modano had
two goals and four assists on Feb. 1, 1995. ... Canucks backup goalie Eddie Lack

.B. - Sebastien Auger made 44 saves as the Saint John Sea Dogs edged the
visiting Acadie-Bathurst Titan 2-1 on Saturday in Quebec Major Junior Hockey
League action.NEW ORLEANS -- After many of his teammates were dressed and
walking to the bus outside New Orleans Arena, Jermaine ONeal sat in the visitors
locker room, still in uniform, with large packs of ice wrapped around his legs
and a slight smile on his face. With the short-handed Warriors needing help from
someone -- anyone -- to stop a three-game skid, ONeal returned from right knee
and groin injuries that had sidelined him for four games and put up season highs
with 18 points and eight rebounds. It was just enough to help lift Golden State
to a 102-101 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. "I had a
rough six or seven days, hadnt been able to practice, had a viral infection, the
groin injury, the knee injury, and I just felt like sometimes when your back is
against the wall you just go out there and have fun, enjoy it," the 17-year pro
said. "I prayed about it and just went out there and did what Ive been doing for
so many years, just playing the game." ONeal made his first seven shots and
finished 9 of 12 from the field, including the Warriors final basket on a
baseline hook that made it 102-99 with about 2 minutes left. Eric Gordon had a
chance to win it for New Orleans with an open 3-pointer from the left corner in
the final seconds, but the shot rimmed out as the crowd, which was on its feet,
started to cheer and then suddenly groaned. Anthony Davis couldnt quite reach
the rebound, and Stephen Curry, who had left Gordon alone to offer help defence
on Jrue Holidays drive moments earlier, might have been the most relieved player
on the court after watching Holiday instead zip a pass to the corner. "Im sure
theyd knock that shot down nine out of 10 times," Curry said. "Thankfully, this
is the only time he missed it." Pelicans coach Monty Williams expressed
considerably less gratitude. "Eric gets a wide-open look, and it goes down and
comes out," he said. "This game is cruel. Its a cruel game." Klay Thompson
scored 22 points and tied a career high with eight assists for the Warriors, who
were without suspended centre Andrew Bogut, as well as several injured players,
including swing man Andre Iguodala (strained left hamstring) and guard Toney
Doouglass (stress reaction, left tibia).
Javier Pastore Jersey. David Lee scored 19
points, capped by two big free throws with 2:34 left. Curry struggled to find
his usual accuracy, missing 13 of 20 shots, but scored seven of his 16 points in
a tight fourth quarter for Golden State. Harrison Barnes added 14 points. "These
games are character builders for us because were trying to do something
special," ONeal said. "Not every game is going to be easy for us. Were going to
have nights like tonight where guys like myself are going to have to step up."
Ryan Anderson had 21 points and 12 rebounds for New Orleans. Davis finished with
14 points and 11 rebounds. New Orleans appeared to be seizing momentum when
Davis dunk on a pick-and-roll feed from Tyreke Evans tied it at 93. Golden State
called a timeout and responded with ONeals 11-foot turnaround jumper and
Thompsons 3. Holiday, who had 17 points, responded with a 3 and the Pelicans
eventually pulled to 100-99 when Davis tipped in an alley-oop pass as he was
fouled by Curry. After ONeal scored the go-ahead basket, Davis once again pulled
the Pelicans within a point with his vigorous, one-handed putback jam of Evans
miss. Then each club missed its final shot, leaving New Orleans just short of
overcoming what had been a 15-point deficit in the second quarter. Gordon
finished with 16 points for the Pelicans, who have lost two straight.
Jason Smith had 14 points and Evans 12. "We have a lot of heart," Holiday said.
"That hurt, though." After being deemed fit in pregame warmups, ONeal quickly
converted a driving dunk, a layup and a turnaround jumper from 9 feet. Late in
the opening quarter, Curry hit a layup and a 15-foot jumper in succession,
sparking an 11-0 run that Marreese Speights capped with a tip-in to give Golden
State a 28-18 lead at the end of the period. The advantage grew to 45-30 on
Thompsons 3 before New Orleans, which shot below 40 per cent much of the first
half, trimmed it to 57-49 at halftime. NOTES: Golden States Draymond Green had a
career-high three blocked shots. ... The Warriors play the second of their
four-game road swing Wednesday night in Dallas. ... The Pelicans lost for the
first time at home in five games.
