Dallas turned a two-goal deficit into a two-goal lead and went on to win 5-4.It would take quite a bit of thinking to go through all those games, but I dont think Ive pulled a goalie that early before, Ruff said. It worked out. Sometimes youre lucky as a coach.Lindback said, Obviously, I didnt think (hed go in so early). But sometimes a coach will just try to do something to wake your guys up. Im sure it would have been the same result if (Lehtonen) stayed in there.Trevor Daley and Erik Cole also scored in the second, which Dallas had entered trailing 3-1 and exited with a 5-3 lead.Ruff said, We might have played one of our worst first periods and then played one of our best second periods.In the third, Lindback gave up a power-play goal but made 15 more saves. He finished with 34 saves and two goals allowed.Ottawas Mike Hoffman, Clarke MacArthur and Jared Cowen each scored in the first period. Milan Michalek added a third-period goal.Boys played fine.

He skated across the blue line into the right faceoff circle and sent a wrist shot past Lehtonen to the left side of the net.MacArthurs power-play goal at 10:30 from almost the same spot hit the left goalpost and went in. That knocked Lehtonen from the game.Dallas came back within a goal when Hemskys slap shot from the right circle at 16:08 beat Lehner.Jared Cowens rebound goal at 17:55 against Lindback put the Senators ahead 3-1 going to the second period.The Stars tied the game at 3 on second-period goals by Trevor Daley at 2:38 and Klingberg at 8:42.Coles tip-in goal at 17:19 provided Dallas its first lead, and Klingberg scored again on assists from Hemsky and Cole with 9 seconds remaining in the second.Michalek scored on the power play at 6:00 of the third, on the second rebound after a shot by Ryan.NOTES: Dallas C Vernon Fiddler (lower-body injury) did not play for the first time since March 10, 2014. ...

Henderson was booked into jail Wednesday and released Thursday on $12,000 bail. He has a court appearance scheduled March 3 on these charges: second and third degree driving while intoxicated and test refusal; possession of a small amount of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, and violation of a limited driver license. Henderson was arrested in Chanhassen, a suburb near team headquarters in Eden Prairie. The Vikings issued a statement Thursday morning: "We are aware of the matter involving Erin Henderson. We are continuing to gather information and will have further comment at the appropriate time." According to the Carver County Sheriffs office, Henderson was travelling on a county road when he lost control of the car, skidded over the centerline and went through a grassy area and a park-and-ride lot before colliding with some trees. The 27-year-old Henderson, who finished second on the team in tackles this season, was not injured. Officers observed a strong odour of alcohol on Hendersons breath as well as bloodshot and glassy eyes.dddddddddddd. He was arrested after "performing poorly during standardized field sobriety testing," according to a news release from the sheriffs office. Henderson was moved to middle linebacker this year and the starter there until he was arrested Nov. 19 in Eden Prairie on suspicion of DWI and drug possession, one of three arrests involving Vikings players that month. Audie Cole took his spot, and Henderson returned to his previous position on the weak side. Henderson has one season left on his contract with a $1.95 million salary, but if the Vikings cut him before the new league year begins theyd only take a $250,000 hit against their salary cap for the remaining prorated portion of his signing bonus. Henderson spoke to reporters after the first arrest about "a wake-up call" that he said he thought would help him mature. Again this week as players cleaned out their cubicles following the end of the season, Henderson said he was in a better place. "I think I grew leaps and bounds as a player and as a person as well," he said Monday. ' ' ' the first big head-to-head of the season, plus Antonio Contes Chelsea at home to West Ham United.
