LOS ANGELES -- Chicago Blackhawks defenceman Duncan Keith said he accidentally high-sticked Los Angeles Kings forward Jeff Carter in the face in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals.
http://www.texansrookiestore.com/Texans-Stephen-Anderson-Jersey/ . Kings coach Darryl Sutter thought Keith got off easily with a double minor after opening a gash on Carters face during the Blackhawks 3-1 loss to the defending Stanley Cup champions in Game 3 on Tuesday night. Keith clipped Carter during an exchange well behind the play in the second period. After Carter took a short hack at Keiths hand while the defenceman bent down to pick up his glove, Keith responded by skating behind Carter and hitting him in the face with a one-handed swing of his stick, dropping Carter to the ice. "Yeah, it was accidental," Keith said. "Obviously, I wanted to give him a tap, but not where I got him. I felt bad. Im glad to see that he came back. It was just a scuffle. It was an accident." The injury forced Carter, who wears a visor, to miss the Kings ensuing four-minute power play, which went nowhere. Carter, who scored two goals in the Kings Stanley Cup-clinching victory over New Jersey last year, has six goals in this post-season, sharing the Kings lead with Justin Williams. Keith apparently attempted to apologize to Carter on the ice after Carter returned to the game. Sutter thought Keith deserved a harsher penalty for his actions, calling it "retaliation." "I didnt think it was a four-minute penalty," Sutter said. "Thought it was a wrong call. ... Thats three head injuries now in the playoffs for us. I dont know how to answer it. Its retaliation with a stick. Its not a high stick. Whatever they want to call it, theyll call it. Dont even need video." The Kings lost centre Jarret Stoll for six games in the second round with an apparent concussion from an illegal hit by San Joses Raffi Torres. Stoll returned for the conference finals, but the Kings then lost leading scorer Mike Richards for the past two games after a big hit late in Game 1 from Chicagos Dave Bolland. Carter led the Western Conference with 26 goals during the regular season. His midseason arrival from Columbus last year was a factor in the Kings improbable surge to their first Stanley Cup title. Keith also is a Stanley Cup winner and the Blackhawks top defenceman, recording a team-leading 26:47 of ice time in Game 3.

The Spokane goaltender finished with 28 saves, including a Brandon Fushimi penalty shot in the second period that would have tied the game 1-1.

Meanwhile, the Oilers dealt long-time sniper Ales hemsky to the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday for a fifth-round pick in 2014 and a third-rounder in 2015. Brisbane star Jamie Maclaren has embraced the expectation of re-producing the A-League magic that had thrust him into a Socceroos jumper earlier this year.Maclaren made his national debut in May after an outstanding campaign that netted 18 goals in the regular season for the Roar, second only to Melbourne City striker Bruno Fornarolis 23.But speaking ahead of Fridays season-opener against Melbourne Victory, Maclaren had no hesitation in saying he could repeat his heroics this summer.Ive always believed in myself. Ive got coaches that believe in me, my teammates believe in me and I believe in what were doing, he told reporters on Tuesday.The structures that weve set up is attacking. Thats what I like and what the attackers like.The reason why I scored 20 goals was because of my teammates and all the chances they give me. Its my job to score goals but, if our team plays well, theyll create chances.However, not only is the 23-year-old confident of more individual success, but he predicts his team could progress further than their agonising extra-time exit last season in the semi-finals.In fact, Maaclaren said his team could win the whole thing.

We were 3-0 up in the semi-final and its something that still hurts me and hurts the boys, he said.We started well last year and, if we can start well this year, its all about consistently winning games. If we can do that at home, get our away record better, hopefully we should be right.Maclaren has failed to add to his lone Socceroos appearance against England five months ago, and has been overlooked for upcoming World Cup qualifiers Saudi Arabia and Japan.But he insisted his sole focus was on helping the Roar to a strong start to the season, which was a major factor in his success last year.Ive got to get my form intact. Ive got to start scoring goals during the season, he said.Coming into last year, I didnt have the thought of the Socceroos. This year is going to be the same. If the Socceroos comes, it comes. If it doesnt, Ive got to make sure Im right for the team.
