CALGARY -- Its rare to see a penalty shot in the National Lacrosse League, let alone in a playoff game. So when the Calgary Roughnecks were awarded a penalty shot down by a goal with less than a minute remaining in Game 1 of the NLL West final against the Edmonton Rush, they took full advantage of the opportunity. Curtis Dickson tied the game for Calgary with 22 seconds left on the clock, and Jeff Shattlers goal 46 seconds into overtime gave the Roughnecks the thrilling 12-11 victory. "Thats probably only the second or third (penalty shot) that Ive seen since Ive been in the league," said Dickson, who added that although it was a "nerve-wracking" experience, he felt confident making the play. "Ive been in this situation before. We need a goal late to tie it up or get the win. I just did what I know how to do. I saw my spot, took a shot at the opening, and lucky enough it went in." Leading 11-10, Edmonton had the ball in the Calgary end, and the Roughnecks had an empty net after pulling their goalie earlier. But with the play along the boards by the benches, the Rush were assessed a rarely called illegal substitution penalty. "I guess we had too many and its the last two minutes so its a penalty shot, which is fine. I dont have a problem with that except for the fact they had about nine guys on the floor too," said Edmonton coach Derek Keenan. "If theyre going to call it on us, they should have called it on them too, or not call it. It was ridiculous." Shattler, who had two goals on the night, was equally amazed. "That call that they made was pretty gutsy," he said. "Too many men with 22 seconds left. I dont know many refs that would make that call." Shattler showed off his athleticism on the winning goal. After his original shot missed the net, the ball bounced high in the air off the end boards. Shattler, who saw it the whole way, raced after it, leaped high in the air and in one motion flung the ball into the top corner past Edmonton goaltender Aaron Bold. "When I looked at Boldie, he was still looking the other way so I thought if I get up there fast enough, Ive got a chance," said Shattler. "I shot it before I even looked at the net." He didnt have to look to know it went in as a deafening roar erupted from the Scotiabank Saddledome crowd of 13,618. "Tonight was an amazing experience, it was unreal," said Shattler. Greg Harnett, Shawn Evans, Karsen Leung, Daryl Veltman, Dane Dobbie and Scott Ranger also scored for Calgary. Edmontons offence was led by Mark Matthew, who scored three goals. Robert Church and Zack Greer each had a pair, while John Lintz, Curtis Knight, Riley Loewen and Nik Bilic added singles. The two teams will play Game 2 of the West final next Friday in Edmonton. Should the Rush win that game, a 10-minute mini game will immediately follow to decide who will advance, with sudden death overtime if still tied after that. "If we play as well as we did tonight with a couple little adjustments, well have a good opportunity next week for sure. We have to worry about that first one and then go from there with that quirky 10-minute deal," said Keenan. "When push comes to shove, you cant lose those one-goal games like that being up 5-1 and not putting the foot on the pedal," said Matthews. "We didnt do that and they came out with a lot of energy in the second half and beat us." After giving up the games first goal, Edmonton scored the next five and were cruising along nicely early in the second quarter when they were held to one goal on a five-minute power play. Calgary scored three straight right after that and the game was close the rest of the way. Edmonton led 7-5 at half-time and Calgary was up 9-8 after three quarters. "I thought we played well enough to win the game, to be honest," said Keenan. "I thought we played a real good game right from the start to finish. In all areas of our game I thought we were good and it came down to a couple of breaks that they got and they got the win. It was a tough one."

Complete from all four lines, all three sets of (defenders) and Brian Elliott was fantastic.The Blues outshot the Coyotes 39-23 and won in Arizona for the sixth straight time with a 29-8 scoring edge in those games.Backes notched his 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th goals of the season over a 17-minute span between the second and third periods. He became the second Blues player in two nights to score at least three goals, following T.J. Oshies hat trick in St. Louis 7-2 win at San Jose on Saturday.I dont know how to explain it, Backes said of the teams six hat tricks, but were not going to complain when guys are having hot nights like that. I cant take all the credit. I had a lot of linemates making some fantastic plays and I was able to find the back of the net and pay those guys off for doing a lot of hard work.Mike Smith finished with 33 saves for the Coyotes, who were shut out for the seventh time this season — the fourth time at home.Backes first goal came after the Blues finished three passes with the puck coming to him for the shot, giving St. Louis a 2-0 lead.

Backes got his third career hat trick, and Oshie recorded a ppoint for the sixth straight game after his two assists.ddddddddddddIts fun to be a part of, Oshie said. Its a balanced offence. Guys are going to get hot at different times. Lines are going to get hot at different times. We like to throw four lines at teams and when that happens, you wear guys down.Patrik Berglund and Steen also had two assists each for St. Louis.Stastny opened the scoring at 7:57 of the first period, putting in a loose puck after Smith came out of the net to stop a shot. Smith passed the puck to Lauri Korpikoski, who lost the puck to Stastny.Schwartz capped the scoring with a power-play goal — St. Louis third of the game — at 5:53 of the third.The Blues scored on their first two power plays of the night.

Crombeen, which resulted in 5-minute penalties for both at 8:48 of the period.Korpikoski had a good chance for a goal with just under 6 minutes left in the second, but couldnt corral a loose puck that Elliott couldnt find.Thats not a goaltender problem, thats a people in front of him problem, Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said.
