SAN JOSE, Calif. -- The slumping Anaheim Ducks may have started to feel that any close call wouldnt go their way.On Saturday, one in their favor figured prominently in a 3-2 victory over the San Jose Sharks.Trailing 2-1 midway through the second, the Ducks tied the game on a disputed play.Ryan Garbutt had a breakaway and appeared to be in the act of shooting when he was shoved from behind by Sharks defenseman Brent Burns. The puck trickled past the goal line as Garbutt collided with Jones, taking out the net.Garbutts second goal of the season was upheld after Sharks coach Peter DeBoers challenge. The NHL explained the decision on its website, saying the actions of San Joses Brent Burns caused Garbutt to contact Jones before the puck crossed the goal line.Weve had numerous things go against in that type of situation, but they obviously ruled that Garbutt was pushed by Burns and if you look at it, he did push him and the puck did enter the net, Ducks coach Randy Carlyle said.I dont know what our players supposed to do in that situation.The goal gave a Ducks team that was riding a three-game losing streak the emotional lift it desperately needed.Obviously it gave us some life, Carlyle said.DeBoer had a different take on Garbutts goal.I still think you have to make some intent to try to stop and avoid the collision, DeBoer said. I didnt see that, but they obviously saw something I didnt.Ryan Getzlaf and Rickard Rakell also scored for Anaheim, and Jonathan Bernier had 21 saves.Getlaf gave the Ducks the lead for good at 12:59 of the second. With Justin Braun in the box for elbowing Corey Perry, Getlaf beat Martin Jones for just his second goal of the season.Getzlafs goal came against one of the leagues best penalty killing units. The Sharks had killed off 42 of their previous 46 power plays heading into Saturdays game.We put a lot of pressure in their zone and in the neutral zone, Bernier said. They didnt have enough energy to come and have some rush because they had to change, they were stuck in their zone for a while and we kept doing the same thing over and over.Logan Couture and Dylan DeMelo scored for San Jose, which had won three in a row. Jones had 23 saves.But the Sharks couldnt get much going the rest of the way. They had just five shots on goal in the third period.We had some chances, Couture said. They shut it down pretty good. We didnt really sustain much pressure until the very end there. We had some shifts in their end. Would have liked to generate a couple more shots.Getzlafs goal came against one of the leagues best penalty-killing units. The Sharks had killed off 42 of their previous 46 power plays heading into Saturdays game.Couture scored the first goal on a power play 8:40 into the game.Felt like we were wrestling around in front of the net the whole night, both ways, Pavelski said. It was a hard fought game. Didnt necessarily feel like we were on the outside, it was pretty even.We wanted to get that one and we thought we had it coming, felt confident that we were going to tie it up but we ran out of time.Game notes San Jose F Tommy Wingels was sidelined by a lower-body injury, and DeBoer said he is day to day.

Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not.

First off, the fans ripped the Cubbies introduction of a fuzzy new kid-friendly mascot named "Clark". When it comes to finding a soft landing in his transition away from the world of professional wrestling, Adam Edge Copeland has made it look easy over the past five years.The WWE Hall of Famer, who was forced to walk away from the ring in 2011 at age 37 following the accumulation of neck and spinal injuries, is a devoted father and has kept busy as a dedicated student of his new passion: acting. His new recurring role away from the ring comes in Season 5 of the historical drama series Vikings, which airs on History.Edge was always a character to me and I still get to play characters every day in my new job, Copeland told ESPN.com. Right now, I get to sail on Viking long ships and carry an ax. Or read to a rock n roll dog puppet and promote reading.If the reference to the dog seems random, its a nod to his newest project, which satisfies two major priorities in his life.Copeland will be a special guest on a new Amazon Original Kids Series titled Bookaboo, which debuted Oct. 28 with the launch of the entire first season. He joins a group of celebrities like Paula Abdul, Rachelle Lefevre, Selma Blair and Antonio Brown in reading their favorite book to the eponymous live-action puppet.The former WWE superstar, who has two daughters -- Lyric, 3, and 5-month-old Ruby -- with his wife, former WWE Divas and three-time womens champion Beth Phoenix, was drawn to the project because of the message it promotes about the importance of parents reading to their children.Having two little girls of my own really adds weight to that for me, Copeland said. I read to my kids every night. Not a missed night. If Im in Ireland [filming Viking], and with the time difference, I will film myself reading a book for that night and send it to Dropbox so Beth can still play it for them. So even while Im sleeping or working, they still get our nightly routine of dad reading them to bed.Copeland the family man is a far cry from the wild and crazy character he portrayed for 15 years within WWE, but he has often relied on the lessons he learned in the spotlight as The Rated-R Superstar -- being ready for anything, always staying on his toes -- to help ease the transition into acting.ddddddddddddrestling is amazing training for that, Copeland said. Scenes can change on the fly and decisions need to be made quickly. Thats what wrestling is all about, if its done right.When it comes to getting over in acting in the same manner in which he did as a wrestler, Copeland says theres no substitute for hard work and sweat equity, saying that no matter the industry you decide to enter, a work ethic and manners will take you a long way.Like most ex-wrestlers, Copeland says the aspect he misses most from his WWE days is the in-ring performance and the connection he built with others in the locker room. He declined to answer whether he would ever return to WWE in some kind of long-term peripheral role as a broadcaster or on-screen general manager.Copeland hasnt strayed too far from the company in general, having made a handful of sporadic appearances on Raw and Smackdown in recent years, and landing a pair of acting roles in films produced by WWE Studios. He also reprised his Edge character earlier this year on the WWE Network series The Edge and Christian Show That Totally Reeks of Awesomeness.The entire 12-episode first season was filmed in the span of just over a month. Copeland said a second season will eventually happen when the coordination of schedules makes more sense. The show featured a steady stream of inside humor poking fun at some of the more embarrassing moments in company history.I honestly dont know [how the jokes were cleared for broadcast], Copeland said. We just wrote it, performed it and waited for a no -- which never came.Copeland, who turned 43 on Sunday, hasnt had a problem with being unable to keep his focus professionally on what is still to come, despite a successful and iconic career in his rearview mirror.I had a long career that started when I was 17, Copeland said. I wrestled for 20 years, so people forget how long I actually wrestled for. It leaves some good time to accomplish other goals, which I feel like Im on my way to doing. And then Ill reset my goals.
