LOS ANGELES -- After Patrick Marleaus fourth career playoff overtime goal silenced Staples Center for maybe the next-to-last time this season, the veteran
San Jose Sharks forward attributed his knack for post-season heroics to one
simple trait.
Chris

said. "This one was not a hard shot by any means, but you just get it to the
net." Thats how good things happen for Marleau and the Sharks, who weathered the
Los Angeles Kings best game of the series and emerged on the brink of
advancement. Marleau scored 6:20 into overtime, and the Sharks beat the Kings
4-3 on Tuesday night to take a 3-0 first-round series lead. Rookie Tomas Hertl
tied it with 10:43 left in regulation for the Sharks, who had to grind out a
nail-biting victory after two blowout wins in San Jose. But the Sharks have won
five straight overtime playoff games and 10 of their past 11, with Marleau
repeatedly delivering the decisive blow. "For Patty Marleau to come up with that
goal, its just huge for us," captain Joe Thornton said. "It was just going back
and forth." The Kings largely controlled overtime until Marleaus shot banked off
Kings defenceman Slava Voynovs stick on its way past Jonathan Quick, who made 36
saves in his third straight loss. Marleaus goal was his third of the series.
"They had the bat in their hands, and they were going to swing it," San Jose
coach Todd McLellan said. "They had us on our heels, but sometimes it goes that
way. We will take that break." Matt Nieto got his first career playoff goal for
the Sharks, and Brent Burns also scored. Antti Niemi stopped 28 shots for San
Jose, winning three straight in the matchup of Stanley Cup-winning goalies. Game
4 is Thursday in Los Angeles. Los Angeles has slipped to the brink of
first-round elimination just two years after its Stanley Cup title run. The
Kings were the NHLs best defensive team during the regular season, but theyve
allowed 17 goals in the first three games of this series. Only three teams have
ever rallied to win a best-of-seven NHL playoff series after trailing 0-3. "It
was a better effort," said leading scorer Anze Kopitar, who doesnt have a goal
in the series. "We had some chances, but it wasnt enough. Were going to have to
come back in a couple of days and throw everything at them." Jeff Carter tipped
in a tiebreaking goal for Los Angeles on a power play early in the third period,
but Hertl evened it right after a power play expired. San Jose dominated the
third, but Quick made 23 saves to send the Kings into their first overtime
playoff game at home in three years. Marian Gaborik scored and Jarret Stoll
ended his 29-game playoff goal drought for the Kings, who stumbled back home
after opening the series with two disastrous games at the Shark Tank. The Kings
nervous fans got quiet early on when Burns partly whiffed on a wrist shot and
produced a knuckling puck that sailed past Quick just 10 seconds into a Sharks
power play. Stoll evened it with his first playoff goal in two years early in
the second period. Stoll hadnt found the net in the post-season since his
series-clinching overtime goal against Vancouver in 2012. Gaborik then put the
Kings ahead all by himself, lugging the puck from the opposite blue line and
beating Niemi with a vicious backhand. "I think our better players were better,"
Kings coach Darryl Sutter said. "That was noticeable. That will give us a chance
next game." San Jose evened it 1:18 later when Nieto, from nearby Long Beach,
scored into an open net. Quick had been knocked to the ice by Kings defenceman
Robyn Regehr moments earlier. Carter capitalized in the waning seconds of a
power play by tipping Anze Kopitars shot in front for his first playoff score
since Game 2 of last seasons Western Conference finals, ending a personal 393:34
drought. Hertl converted his own rebound midway through the period to even it
again, scoring on the rink where a knee-on-knee hit from Dustin Brown sidelined
the Czech rookie for 45 games earlier this season. NOTES: The Kings scratched F
Colin Fraser after recalling the two-time Stanley Cup champion from the AHL
earlier in the day. Los Angeles also scratched F Kyle Clifford, who went
scoreless with a minus-3 and 16 penalty minutes in the first two games, and D
Matt Greene, a minus-4 in the series. ... The Kings dressed F Tanner Pearson,
who made his NHL playoff debut last season before he had ever played in a
regular-season NHL game. ... Los Angeles played its 41st playoff game in the
past three seasons, the most by any NHL team in that span.

Beckham brought his international star power to the halls of the Florida Capitol
on Tuesday, trying to rally support from the governor and legislators for the
Major League Soccer franchise he plans to bring to Miami later this decade.
Beckham was mobbed by legislators and legislative aides during his visit as they
took to social media to document his visit. Even Gov. Rick Scott took a "selfie"
of himself with Beckham. Beckham made no secret that he wants to tap into state
subsidies like most of the states other professional teams have done. The
Florida Legislature is advancing a bill this year that would create a process
that lets pro sports teams compete for a share of state tax dollars in the
future. "No ones promised me anything," Beckham said about his brief visit. "But
they promised me that they support having the team in Miami and are excited
about that. Its good that they havent promised me anything, because then I know
its going to be fair and the decision will be down to what they think is best
for the state." The 38-year-old former England captain said he had never
previously visited Tallahassee which has a much more Old South feel than
cosmopolitan Miami. "Its going to sound silly and people are probably going to
laugh at me but I love the moss on the trees," Beckham. "Ive only seen it in
scary movies. Ive never seen it close up." Beckhams visit to the Capitol came a
day after his architects and advisers recommended the Port of Miami as the
stadium site for his team. The plan annnounced Monday would have an open-air
stadium with views of the bay and the downtown skyline.

high as 35,000. He was escorted around the Capitol by high-powered lobbyist
Brian Ballard, who has been a major fundraiser for Republicans. Under the
proposed bill, pro teams could qualify for as much as $2 million a year
depending on how much the team invests in the project. A similar bill was
considered last year, but it was never considered by the Florida House because
initially it included help for the Miami Dolphins. Scott said on Tuesday he can
support a sports incentives bill as long as it has safeguards to ensure a return
on investment, including a provision to pay back the state if the pro team
doesnt generate as much money as anticipated. "Its exciting he wants to invest
in Florida," said Scott about his meeting with Beckham. A spokesman for House
Speaker Will Weatherford called the meeting "informational" and said the speaker
stressed his support for a bill that would create a process to guide future
professional team subsidies. Sen. Andy Gardiner, R-Orlando and in line to become
the next Senate president, said he and Beckham primarily discussed Orlandos
Major League Soccer franchise that is expected to start playing next year.
Beckham said hes confident that Florida can support two franchises especially
since the league is "stable" now. The league previously had two teams in the
state. "I think at the end of the day we want a rivalry," Beckham said.
