HOUSTON -- The Hamilton Bulldogs attempt to become the third team in American Hockey League history to overcome a 3-0 series deficit ended in controversial fashion Tuesday night. With the score tied 3-3 and just over a minute left in the game, Houston fired the puck at the Bulldogs net. Hamilton goalie Drew MacIntyre made the save and a wild scramble ensued with a pack of Aeros players jabbing at the puck under MacIntyres pad until it finally went across the goal line. Jon DiSalvatore got credit for the goal with 1:13 left in the third, and the Aeros withstood a late Hamilton barrage to take the series and the game 4-3 and advance to the Calder Cup. Hamilton head coach Randy Cunneyworth said MacIntyre was driven behind the goal line by DiSalvatores stick and then his foot. MacIntyre agreed with his coach. "Thats what they 100 per cent did," said MacIntyre, who made 30 saves. "I dont know what they expect the goalie to do there. My glove was on top. It wasnt on top for long. Ill give them that. You cant just run a goalie in like that. Thats unfortunate. Thats two good refs. I got a lot of respect for them. Its just unfortunate." Cunneyworth said referee Terry Koharski, who called the goal good, told him he had seen the puck the whole time. "I dont know for sure," MacIntyre said. "It looked like he slid into me. I dont know if he (Koharski) really saw it. I dont know if he talked to the other refs. Its unfortunate. Its real unfortunate to lose like that." Hamilton had several chances in the final minute, including a scrum in front of the Houston net with a couple jabs at the puck by Aaron Palushaj. Ryan White took another shot and a scrum ensued in front of the net with a number of Bulldogs jabbing at the puck, but again, Aeros goalie Matt Hackett, who finished with 24 saves, didnt let it through. Cunneyworth said he thought the Bulldogs should have been given a penalty shot as Aeros defencemen Justin Falk put his glove over the puck in the crease. "I think its a combination (of disappointment and anger), but mainly dead silence," Cunneyworth said of the mood in the locker room following the game. "Nobody was losing their composure. Just dead silence. Almost disbelief. We felt that we should have had seconds on the clock and a penalty shot due to Falk grabbing the puck in the crease." Houston took a 3-2 lead early in the second with a Casey Wellman goal, but the Bulldogs charged right back with Palushajs power-play goal at 9:57 in the second. The game remained tied until DiSalvatores goal. "The main thing there is that you saw the desire until the end and the intensity of this group and the resiliency all year," Cunneyworth said. "I thought they deserved a break on a call or something like that. They never quit and they had a never die attitude." Houston got off to a quick start, scoring twice, nine seconds apart to take a 2-0 lead at 7:12 in the first. Patrick OSullivan took the puck behind the net and found Chad Rau in the crease for the first goal, and off the ensuing faceoff, Wellman stole it from Brandon Nash, took it inside the blue line and hit a slapshot that deflected off Nashs stick past Hackett. The Bulldogs quickly recovered with Dustin Boyd taking it inside the blue line and firing a shot over Hacketts shoulder from above the circles at 9:13 in the first to make it 2-1. After Houstons Carson McMillan was whistled for hooking at 13:03 in the first, Hamilton took just 18 seconds with the man advantage before Mathieu Carle took a pass from Dawes in the right circle and beat Hackett top shelf. "We put it all on the line and played well," White said. "I have no regrets. We had a great run there and were one goal away from finishing things off. If there were one thing I would regret is our start. Maybe a little bit of jitters. We got down 2-0, but we got out of it."

Concussions have put the status of both starting quarterbacks in question while the Niners head coach, Jim Harbaugh, was sent to the hospital last Thursday when doctors discovered he had an irregular heartbeat. Harbaugh underwent what was described as a "minor procedure" and was back at work on Friday preparing for the Bears. "They had to do a little procedure, cardiovert," Harbaugh said after getting back to work. "Get it back normal. Its amazing they can do a procedure like that." Cardioversion is an electric shock that gets the heart back into a normal rhythm and Harbaugh said it wasnt the first time hes had to have something done to his heart. "About 13 years ago, I had a cardio ablation for the same thing," the 49ers coach said. "An atrial flutter is what I have." Assistant head coach and special teams coordinator Brad Seely handled the 49ers practice on Thursday and would have presumably been in line to run things if Harbaugh was unable to recover quick enough for Monday night but the coach is ready to go against the organization he played seven of his 14 NFL seasons for. "If youre a football player, its a game you live for. If youre not, its another day at the office," Harbaugh said. "I hope its everything they live for." On the field San Franciscos Alex Smith was belted twice in last Sundays 24-24 tie with St. Louis, ultimately exiting the game in the second quarter after suffering blurred vision. Smith did enough to pass the NFLs ImPACT testing protocol and was able to practice in a limited fashion by Thursday, but did not pass a concussion test and is not medically cleared to play. The Bears Jay Cutler, isnt doing as well either after being walloped during a helmet-to-helmet collision with Houston linebacker Tim Dobbins late in the first half of the teams 13-6 loss to the Texans on Nov. 11. Dobbins was fined $30,000 earlier this week for the hit and Cutler has been ruled out of Mondays game. On paper Chicago seems a little better prepared to withstand the loss of its starting quarterback since veteran Jason Campbell is the caddy for the Bears while untested but super athletic Colin Kaepernick is Smiths backup for San Francisco.dddddddddddd Campbell, who has significant starting experience in previous stops with Washington and Oakland, was unable to lead Chicago on a game-tying drive in the waning moments of its loss to Houston, however. A steady rain and two play-making defenses made points hard to come by in that one. Houston and Chicago combined for six turnovers in the opening 30 minutes, with the Texans forcing four of them. Campbell connected on 11-of-19 throws for 94 yards against the Texans while Matt Forte ran for 39 yards on 16 carries. "Were 7-2," Bears coach Lovie Smith said. "Were going to get ready for San Francisco. We have an extra day to get ready for them. Theres a lot of football left to go." Two normally trustworthy kickers misfired in overtime and the end result was the NFLs first tie in nearly four years during the Niners last game Both David Akers and Greg Zuerlein both missed field goals in overtime as San Francisco and St. Louis Rams played to NFLs first tie since Nov. 16, 2008 when the Philadelphia Eagles and Cincinnati Bengals finished their contest knotted at 13-13. Akers, who sent the game into overtime with a 33-yard field goal with three seconds remaining in regulation, sailed his kick wide left from 41 yards out midway through the extra session. Zuerlein initially nailed a 53-yard attempt on St. Louis ensuing series, but a delay of game penalty was called. The rookie kicker, who split the uprights from 60 yards away earlier in the year, pushed it right from 58 yards out. Smith was 7-of-8 for 72 yards and a touchdown before exiting the contest with the concussion. Kaepernick came on and threw for 117 yards on 11-of-17 efficiency and added 66 yards on the ground for San Francisco, which had won four of its previous four games coming in. "The way I feel it was a good football game, it was a hard fought game, it came out even," Harbaugh said. The 49ers hold a slim 31-29-1 edge in their all-time series with the Bears, including a 21-12 advantage at home. This game also marks the fourth matchup between the two clubs on Monday Night Football, and the first since 1991. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
