CALGARY - Things didnt look too good for Jonas Hiller playing against his old team for the first time.Down 2-0 at the second intermission, the Calgary Flames mounted a furious comeback in the third period on their way to a wild 4-3 shootout victory over the Anaheim Ducks.It feels great to get the win, said Hiller, who made 24 saves in regulation and overtime before allowing just one goal in the shootout, while the Flames scored twice. Especially after being down after two periods and not playing our best game and finding a way to step it up. I think it shows a lot of character on this team.After Sean Monahan scored in the third-round of the shootout, Hiller stood his ground to force Corey Perry to shoot wide of the net to preserve the victory for Calgary (12-6-2).I think everyone in here is believing that we can turn games around, said Hiller, who signed as a free agent with the Flames on July 1 after seven seasons with the Ducks. A lot of times, third periods have been our best periods.That was the case on Tuesday as the Ducks (11-4-5) led 2-0 after two periods, while holding the Flames to just seven shots on net.I dont know how you can be so great and so bad all in the same game, lamented Anaheim coach Bruce Boudreau after the loss. We beat ourselves. Theres no doubt in my mind. I think it was evident that after two periods, we had total control of the game and then we do stupid stuff in the third period and get lazy. It doesnt take much to get the crowd back into it and the next thing you know its 3-2.Dennis Wideman had a pair of goals for the Flames, who have come back to win four games when trailing after two periods this season. They accomplished that same feat just four times all last season.Weve done a good job this year so far of sticking to our game and when we havent had the first and second period that wed like … weve found a way to find our legs in the third, said Wideman, whos now tied for the NHL lead in goals by a defenceman at seven with Brent Burns of the San Jose Sharks. Its early in the year for a statement game, but its a big win for us because it gives the young guys the confidence to know they can go up against the best and we can win games.Jiri Hudler also scored for Calgary, while Markus Granlund had two assists.Sami Vatanen had a goal and two assists for the Ducks, who also lost 6-2 at home to the Florida Panthers two nights earlier.We made some mental mistakes that cost us the game tonight, said Anaheim captain Ryan Getzlaf. We should have been out of that game and on our way.Matt Beleskey and Kyle Palmieri also scored for the Ducks, while goalie Frederik Andersen made 16 saves in a losing cause.Anaheim opened the scoring at 15:54 of the first when Vatanen snapped a shot from the point that deflected off Calgary defenceman Raphael Diazs stick and through Hillers legs.During an early man advantage for the Ducks in the second, Hiller made a nice glove save on a shot from the slot by Getzlaf before also making a pad save to deny Palmieri.Beleskey put the Ducks up 2-0 at 12:29 of the second with a power-play goal when he tipped a point shot by Hampus Lindholm past Hiller.Hudler pulled the Flames within a goal at 3:25 of the third when he deposited a shot from the slot into the net behind Andersen, who was out of position.Wideman then blasted a pair of slap shots — at 9:03 of the third and again at 13:43 — past Andersen to put the Flames up 3-2.Palmieri scored another power-play goal for the Ducks at 15:05 of the third. Hiller made the initial save, but the puck bounced up and over him and across the goal line to send the game to overtime.I just took it to the net, said Palmieri, whose tying goal helped him atone for taking two penalties early in the third. I saw it in slow motion. It just kind of popped up and over Hillsys shoulder. I was lucky enough for it to pop back into the net.The Flames had a great chance to win the game in overtime when Ryan Kesler was penalized for cross-checking Calgary defenceman T.J. Brodie.Wideman nearly completed his hat trick on the ensuing power play, but Andersen stuck out his right pad to turn aside the point shot.Notes: The Flames honoured Hall of Fame broadcaster Peter Maher with a pre-game ceremony. Maher was the radio voice of the Flames from 1981-82 until his retirement at the end of the 2013-14 season. In total, Maher called 2,954 Flames games. … In his seven seasons with Anaheim, Hiller compiled a record of 162-110-32 to go with a 2.51 goals-against average and a .916 save percentage while wearing a Ducks uniform. … Heading into the game, Flames captain Mark Giordano had recorded at least a point in nine straight games to match a personal best which he set last season. Giordano had five goals and nine assists during that stretch before failing to record a point against the Ducks.Note to readers: This is a corrected story.

Scarpe Nike Italia . -- Chicago manager Darold Butler has a message for the Windy City.PARIS – Eugenie Bouchard grew up admiring Maria Sharapova. "First, I noticed her cute dresses and things like that when I was young," said the 20-year-old Canadian, who met Sharapova when she was just eight-years-old at a tournament in Miami. "As a child, I looked up to her and I remember watching her in the finals of Wimbledon and thought what she was doing was so cool and I wanted to do the same thing." Bouchard and Sharapova will play on Thursday in the French Open semi-finals. It is the second straight year that the two have met at Roland Garros with the Russian prevailing in straight sets in the second round a year ago. "For sure I respect her," said Bouchard. "But now were in the semis of a Grand Slam, so Im going to respect her but not put her too high on a pedestal and really just battle. Thats what its going to be." Sharapova may be seeded seventh, but she has been widely considered the favourite to win the title since the top three seeds – Serena Williams, Li Na and Agnieszka Radwanska – all lost in the first three rounds. And Sharapova is favoured to beat Bouchard (-325, 4/13 per BoDog) for the same reason she is expected to hoist the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen on Saturday: she has the experience. She made the finals here a year ago. She won the whole thing just two years ago. At the age of 27, she has already won the career slam and has an Olympic silver medal on her resume. "Achieving what she has, she is of course very strong mentally," said Bouchard. "It is one of her strengths. Im going to be ready for another battle. You know, the semis of a Grand Slam, thats what you have to expect. "Im just looking forward to the challenge." Bouchard is earning her own reputation for poise under pressure. She overcame a 2-5 deficit (two breaks) and a set point to win the opening frame against clay-court specialist Carla Suarez Navarro in the quarterfinals on Tuesday. Then, after dropping the second set 2-6, Bouchard dug out of a 1-4 hole in the deciding set by winning 12 straight points. She then served to stay in the match at 4-5, holding easily. "At the end of the day, whether I win or lose, I want to at least leave it all out there and try and at least battle.dddddddddddd Im proud of the way I did that in both the first and third. Shes a great player and a really good clay courter, as well. I knew it was a tough battle, and thats exactly what it was today. Im just proud of the way I stayed in there." Bouchard appeared to show some nerves after wasting a match point, serving at 6-5, with a double fault. She was asked if that was a sign she is, after all, human. "I show Im human all the time," Bouchard noted with a smile. "Yeah, you know, its one of those things. I didnt really worry about it. I think thats the most important thing: I didnt see it as a big deal, and I just regrouped for the next point, which allowed me to just give me a chance to get in a position to have a match point again. "Even on the second match point I missed a ball, but I was trying to go for it, so I didnt worry too much, either. "I think that was a bit the theme the whole match: even if I was down 5-2 or 4-1 in the third, not to worry too much, keep going, keep going, keep going, and it paid off in the end." Bouchards mental toughness and aggressive play have earned her comparisons to Sharapova. Does she like that? "There are positives and negatives," Bouchard said. "Of course shes a great champion, so to be seen as the next of someone who has won four slams and has been No. 1 in the world, its a compliment. "But at the same time, of course, Im my own person and I just want to be myself on the court, and you know, try and achieve what I want to achieve and just be seen as that." Bouchard is the only womens player to make the semis at both slams this season. She is part of the future of womens tennis and looking to prove the future is now. Bouchard readily admits that back in January when she made that magical run to the Australian Open semis, she suffered from a bit of stage fright at the start of a straight-sets loss to Li Na. "I was maybe a little bit frozen at the beginning of that match," she said. "Ill be much more ready this time." ' ' '
