TAMPA, Fla. -- Radko Gudas was able to joke after being centre stage in what both coaches called a crazy ending. The Tampa Bay defenceman had a puck go off him late in the third and then assisted on Martin St. Louis goal 1:16 into overtime as the Lightning beat the Chicago Blackhawks 6-5 on Thursday night. Chicagos Jonathan Toews was credited with a game-tying goal with 1:49 left in the third after the Lightning put the puck into their own net. Tampa Bay defenceman Matt Carle sent the puck from the neutral zone back into the Lightning defensive zone, where it went off Gudas and past a stunned goalie Ben Bishop into the net. "I didnt think the first (goal) of the season was going to be like that," said Gudas, who hasnt scored a goal this season. "It bounced right in front of me, hit my (stick) shaft, my ankle and went straight in." Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said it seemed as if the goal took place in slow motion. "Theres been some crazy goals the last year and a half, and thats one of them," Chicago coach Joel Quenneville added. St. Louis got the game-winner from in-close, with Gudas getting his second assist of the season on the play. "Obviously, that makes it a little better," Gudas said. "We got the win after all, even if something like that happens." St. Louis, the Tampa Bay captain, also had an assist and moved past Neal Broten (923) for 93rd place on the career points list with 924. Bishop stopped 38 shots. Steven Stamkos scored a tiebreaking power-play goal as Tampa Bay (6-3-0) went up 5-4 at 17:31 of the third. Stamkos finished with two goals and two assists. Carle, Nate Thompson and Victor Hedman had the other Tampa Bay goals. The Lightning have beaten the defending Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks twice this season. Tampa Bay rallied from a 2-0, third-period deficit for a 3-2 shootout win in Chicago on Oct. 5. "You look at the game that we stole in Chicago ... I dont think we stole tonights," Cooper said. Chicago (6-1-3) also got goals from Bryan Bickell, Marian Hossa, Patrick Kane and Andrew Shaw. Kane assisted on Shaws goal, giving him five goals and 15 points in eight games against Tampa Bay. Chicago took a 4-3 lead 93 seconds into the third on Shaws in-close power-play goal. It was the first time the Blackhawks have scored during the third period since opening night. Hedmans first goal in 41 games tied it at 4 at 11:03 of the third. After blowing a two-goal lead, Stamkos gave Tampa Bay a 3-2 advantage at 17:21 of the second when he beat backup goalie Nikolai Khabibulin from the top of the right circle. It was just Khabibulins second start in Tampa since helping the Lightning win the 2004 Stanley Cup. Khabibulin made 19 saves. "Hell be better going forward," Quenneville said. Kane pulled the Blackhawks even at 3-3 on a breakaway goal with 1:07 remaining in the second. Bickell cut the Blackhawks deficit to 2-1 with a rebound goal with 11 minutes left in the second. The left wing has a goal in three consecutive games. Chicago tied it at 2-all on Hossas thigh-high re-direction 1:36 after Bickell scored. Hossa has 438 goals, which ties him for 62nd place all-time with Gary Roberts. Tampa Bay took advantage of its first power play as Carle put the Lightning up 1-0 6:28 into the game. The Blackhawks entered with the NHLs third-worst short-handed unit. Thompson stopped a 19-game goal drought to make it 2-0 during a short-handed 2-on-1 at 1:24 of the second.

Jonathan Quick, Los Angeles Kings (3) - Early goal against was on the power play.LAS VEGAS -- Manny Pacquiao will return to the ring in November, most likely in Macau, and has signed a new two-year contract with promoter Bob Arum that could take him to the end of his career. Arum said Tuesday that Juan Manuel Marquez is his first choice for Pacquiaos next fight, but other fighters -- including Amir Khan -- could be in the mix. A lot, he said, depends on whether Oscar De La Hoya emerges victorious in a power struggle within Golden Boy Promotions with his estranged CEO, Richard Schaefer. "If Oscar takes over the company like hes talking about, were open to those guys also," Arum told The Associated Press. "The other guy (Schaefer) says he wont deal with me, so well see what Oscar says." Marquez moved into the picture for a fifth fight against Pacquiao with an impressive decision win Saturday over Mike Alvarado. Marquez, who knocked out Pacquiao the last time they met, is 1-2-1 against the Filipino fighter. Pacquiao last fought April 12, beating Timothy Bradley in a rematch of Bradleys controversial decision win in their first fight. He began his comeback from the Marquez loss last November, when he beat Brandon Rios in the first major fight card in Macau, the Chinese gambling enclave. "Were talking Macau tonight, thats our first choice," Arum said. "But there are other options. Well see what Vegas has to offer and there could bbe an offer from the Mideast.dddddddddddd. But it will probably be Macau." Arum, who has promoted Pacquiao since 2005, said the new two-year contract will begin after Pacquiaos next fight and will likely bring him to the end of his career in 2016. Pacquiao normally fights two times a year, meaning he would have five more fights. "Manny is the kind of guy who is extraordinarily loyal and hes had a great career with us" Arum said. "We had to work out the different terms and that sort of stuff, but we got it done." Pacquiao is 35, an age where a lot of fighters begin slowing down, and will be 38 when the latest contract with Arums Top Rank Promotions expires. He has been fighting professionally since age 16 and is now 56-5-2 and on the rebound with wins in his last two fights. The one fight boxing fans have wanted for years, though, hasnt happened, and the new contract may mean it will never happen. Floyd Mayweather Jr. says he wont fight Pacquiao as long as Arum is his promoter, the latest in a series of conditions Mayweather has put on a possible fight. But Arum said the two could fight in 2016 when Mayweathers deal with the Showtime network has expired, or next year if Showtime and rival network HBO agree to host the bout together. "HBO is willing to do it," Arum said. "And you never know, anything can happen in 2016." ' ' '
