ST. LOUIS - In a story Dec. 9 about the game between the St. Louis Blues and Florida Panthers, The Associated Press reported erroneously that Peter Stastny scored a late goal for the Blues.

He received several big cheers from the home crowd as he turned away several quality Panthers scoring chances in the second period, when Florida outshot the Blues 18-7.It felt great, said Brodeur, who spent more than two decades with the New Jersey Devils before signing with St. Louis last week.I didnt know what to expect coming in, and its all about winning. When you win I think the fans are able to be a little more cheerful, he said. I think it was great. They acknowledged before the game with a little video. I didnt expect that. A lot of good things. Im really happy to be here, once again, and I think for the first visit in front of these fans, we didnt disappoint. We played well and I did my part.Porters goal came just more than three minutes after Florida tied the game. Porter redirected Barret Jackmans slap shot past Roberto Luongo at 18:06 to give the Blues a 3-2 lead.I saw he was going to shoot and I was just trying to get a stick on it and hopefully it will go in, Porter said.Paul Stastny added an empty-netter with 32 seconds remaining.The Blues jumped on top with a pair of first-period goals.Maxim Lapierres second of the season gave St. Louis a 1-0 lead 11:17 into the game.

A nifty give-and-go between Vladimir Tarasenko and Jori Lehtera started the play, and Lehtera found Cole between the circles for a one-timer to make it 2-0.Blues captain David Backes left early in the first period after getting hit in the face by the puck on a slap shot by teammate T.J. Oshie. Backes returned midway through the second wearing a cage to protect his face, but left the game shortly thereafter.He tried to go, but too much pain, St. Louis coach Ken Hitchcock said. Thats a lot of dental work for one night. Actually, the doctor pulled him out and we were in the process of going back just to tell him thanks, but youve got to take a break here. Hopefully hes ready for Thursday.Florida finally broke through on Nick Bjugstads wrist shot that beat Brodeur to the stick side to cut St. Louis lead to 2-1 at 15:21 of the second.Bjugstads 12th goal broke a long scoring drought for the Panthers against St. Louis that spanned 202 minutes, 14 seconds of game time.

Jussi Jokinen found him and Ekblad scored his fifth of the season to make it 2-all at 14:54 of the third.The last 40 minutes we played hard and played well and took it to a really good team, Panthers coach Gerard Gallant said. Disappointed to lose the way we did at the end. The effort was there. We had more chances. We didnt deserve to lose like that at the end, but they are a good team and find ways to win.Luongo stopped 24 of 27 shots for the Panthers.After the game, Luongo tipped his cap to Brodeur.He gave his team a chance to win and they rewarded him with a big goal there at the end, Luongo said. Would have liked to go to overtime or shootout and see what would have happened.

MILWAUKEE -- The Washington Wizards hope they learned their lesson after almost blowing a 28-point lead Saturday night. Thankfully for the Wizards, they were playing the leagues worst team. Bradley Beal scored 12 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter, helping the Wizards hold off the Milwaukee Bucks 114-107. "We made this game a lot harder than it should have been," said Washingtons John Wall, who scored only nine points and missed 10 of 14 shots. The Wizards opened a 71-43 lead in the second quarter against Milwaukee (12-50), the NBAs first team to lose 50 games. But the Bucks cut the deficit to 104-101 on a pair of free throws by Ersan Ilyasova with 2:13 to go. "Its unfortunate that we have to learn a lesson from this game," said Martell Webster, who scored 15 points after missing two games with a sore back. "No disrespect to that team thats over there. Milwaukees just is in a dysfunctional state," he said. "These are games that we know were supposed to win by a large margin. In this league, you have to kick them when theyre down." After Ilyasova pulled the Bucks within three points, Beal then scored on a driving layup and hit a baseline 3-pointer to give the Wizards a 109-101 lead with 2:01 left. "That kind of stemmed the tide a little bit," Washington coach Randy Wittman said. "Those were big baskets." Washington won for the eighth time in nine games. Wall, Washingtons leading scorer at 19.9 points per game, had 13 assists and seven turnovers. Trevor Ariza scored 17 of his 26 points in the first quarter as the Wizards built a big lead. "They werent really missing (shots), and we didnt really help ourselves because of a lack of hustle," said Milwaukees Brandon Knight, who scored 25 points. After dominating the first half, the Wizards missed 13 of 17 shots in the third quarter. Washington scored only 10 points and had seven turnovers in the period. "We took shortcuts defensivelyy, we just stopped playing," Wittman said.dddddddddddd Washington made 29 of 43 shots in the first half and took its 71-43 lead on Beals 3-pointer with 2:24 left in the second quarter. The Wizards led 75-53 at halftime, a season high in points for the first half. Milwaukee scored the first 12 points of the third quarter to pull within 75-65, but Ariza scored on a driving layup with 4:57 left to snap the Wizards scoring drought. Washington scored the final four points of the first quarter and then outscored Milwaukee 30-12 to open the second quarter, opening a 66-39 lead on Arizas 3-pointer with 4:14 to go in the half. But the Wizards missed their first nine shots of the second half to let Milwaukee back into the game. "We kept cutting into the deficit but leads like that are just very, very hard to overcome," Milwaukee coach Larry Drew said. Ilyasova returned from a one-game suspension for punching Sacramentos Reggie Evans on Wednesday night and scored 13 points in 27 minutes. His teammate, O.J. Mayo, missed the game after being given a one-game suspension for punching New Orleans Greg Stiemsma on Friday night. Ariza made six of eight shots in the first quarter to score 17 points and give Washington a 36-27 lead. Trevor Booker made one of two free throws to give the Wizards the lead for good, 16-15, with 5:33 left in the first quarter. The game marked the return to Milwaukee of forward Drew Gooden, who signed a second 10-day contract with the Wizards on Saturday. Gooden, who signed a five-year, $34 million contract with the Bucks in 2010 but was released on an amnesty provision before this season, scored 13 points in 16 minutes off the bench.
