ONTHEAIR By Ira Podell TheAssociatedPress NEW YORK Alex Gal- chenyuk tipped in a pass at the right post 1:12 into over- time, and the Montreal Ca- nadiens overcame a late ty- ing goal and beat the New York Rangers 3-2 in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals Thursday night. Montreal cut New York's series lead to 2-1, and can tie it Sunday night at Madison Square Garden before head- ing home for Game 5. Galchenyuk, playing only his second game of these playoffs after returning from an injury Monday, de- flected a feed from Tomas Plekanec to win it. The Rangers tied it with 28.1 seconds left in regula- tion on Chris Kreider's goal. Dustin Tokarski was sharp throughout in his sec- ond NHL playoff game in place of injured goalie Carey Price, making 35 saves. New York had its five- game winning streak snapped, and its run of six straight victories over the Canadiens also ended. The Rangers fell to 1-1 in over- time in these playoffs. The Canadiens are 3-1. Montreal was poised to win it in regulation after Danny Briere scored with 3:02 left in the third, but Kreider matched him when his shot hit the sliding right skate of Canadiens defen- seman Alexei Emelin in the crease and caromed past Tokarski. Tokarski was playing in his second straight game because of a series-ending injury sustained by Price, who was barreled into by Kreider in Game 1. Briere's goal was also aided by an opposing defen- seman, as Ryan McDonagh nudged the puck past goalie Henrik Lundqvist. NHL PLAYOFFS Canadiens defeat Rangers in OT By Janie McCauley The Associated Press STANFORD Tim Howard releases an "Ahhh!" that echoes through empty Stan- ford Stadium as he makes a diving stop during a basic keep away drill. True to form, the Amer- ican goalkeeper is good-na- turedly running his mouth about as much as he's run- ning around during World Cup training camp, sport- ing one of the biggest grins in the group. During that same warm- up drill, Howard razzed fel- low goalkeepers Brad Gu- zan and Nick Rimando at every chance. Nobody would want it any other way. Coach Jurgen Klinsmann is counting on that constant chatter and so much more from Howard to lead an in- experienced U.S. defense into the World Cup opener against Ghana on June 16. Howard's leadership figures to be crucial next month during a daunting Group G with three tough tests: Ghana, the team that sent the U.S. home from the past two World Cups; Cris- tiano Ronaldo and Portugal in the Amazon heat; and a match with Germany, the team Klinsmann coached to the 2006 semifinals. Already among the best goalkeepers of his gener- ation and near the top of England's Premier League, Howard is leaving his mark on U.S. soccer, too. "We need a Tim Howard that gives them confidence," said Klinsmann, who an- nounced his 23-man roster Thursday. "We need that very vocal Tim Howard. And that's what he's doing. It's fun to watch. He's look- ing over their shoulder; he gives them advice, not only on the field when we train, but also when they hang out in the cafeteria as a group together. He is making sure that they are confident, that they know what they're do- ing, and also that they can make mistakes, because no- body's perfect." Howard also helps keep everybody loose while do- ing the grueling work that Klinsmann considers neces- sary to catch up with much of the rest of the World Cup field. That gregarious style is quite a change for defender Geoff Cameron from his usual goalie with Stoke, As- mir Begovic. "He's just a different yeller, you could say. I love playing in front of Tim," Cameron said Thursday. "He's got the experience. When he's yelling at you, it's not in a disrespectful man- ner. It's just telling you di- rections and he see things differently than what I see. You always want eyes be- hind you telling you what to do." During one session, How- ard made that dive to his left in front of Rimando of Real Salt Lake and volleyed the ball some 15 yards off his left hand. "That's the way, Tim!" shouted U.S. goalkeeper coach Chris Woods, who tutored Howard on David Moyes' staff at Everton un- til last summer. Howard, who followed other top Americans to England such as Kasey Keller and Brad Friedel, last month signed a two-year contract extension through 2018 and is likely to close out his career with Everton. He's still considered in his prime for the position at 35. The 6-foot-3 Howard had 15 shutouts — one be- hind co-leaders Petr Cech of Chelsea and Arsenal's Wojciech Szczesny — in 37 league matches this season. He has spent eight years as the Toffees' starter after a three-season stint with Manchester United. From North Brunswick, New Jer- sey, he also played six years at home with the New York/ New Jersey MetroStars. While this could be How- ard's last hurrah with the national team to clear the way for backup Guzan to take on a larger role, he also might have one more World Cup in him. With 97 career national team appearances, if he were to play all three of the sendoff exhibition games before departing for Bra- zil on June 8, Howard could tie Keller for most caps by a goalie with the national team — or pass him in the American World Cup opener. Back from the cool Eng- lish air, Howard is bask- ing in the California sun at Stanford leading up to Tuesday night's exhibition against Azerbaijan at Can- dlestick Park. "He's been fantastic. It speaksvolumesaboutsome- one to spend most of their career in England, espe- cially in the Premier League because it's such a tough league," Guzan said. "Con- sistency's such a big fac- tor of that. Hats off to him, because it's not easy. You see so many players who go over there for maybe a year or two and they come back. It's not ideal for them and it doesn't work out for whatever reason. Tim is obviously one of those guys that made it work and per- severed through the tough times. He's loved by every- one out there." Howard will be the first goalie to be No. 1 for the U.S. in consecutive World Cups since Tony Meola in 1990 and '94.

WORLD CUP SOCCER Howard's leadership in goal will be key for US Vocal goalkeeper leads youthful defense into Cup Bluff's Cole Bunting fin- ished third with an aggre- gate time of 23.07 seconds on three head for 39 total points. King finished 10th in the event and Clay Ames from Los Molinos was 33rd. King had his best finish in bull riding where he placed third with a score of 54/1 for 33 points. King was 11th in boys goat tying with 40.82/2 for 14 points. Darst finished 40th in the event, while Bunting was 42nd and Ames 43rd. Darst was ninth in tie down roping. In chute dogging Darst placed 17th, King was 22nd, Ames 27th and Bunting 32nd. Rodeo FROM PAGE 1 doval drove in another run with a double later in the in- ning. Sandoval also had a solo homer overturned by a challenge in the second. He lined a shot down the left- field line that was ruled a homer, sending Sandoval trotting around the bases as left fielder Corey Dicker- son repeatedly pointed that the ball was foul. Manager Walt Weiss challenged the call and it was changed. Sandoval stepped back into the bat- ter's box and flew out to center. "I didn't think it was fair, but it was blowing out," San- doval said. "That's part of the game." Fans were ushered out of their seats and sent to the concourse area as a storm rolled through the city, com- plete with lightning, heavy rain and even a brief tor- nado warning for the vicin- ity. The second wave of weather wasn't nearly as severe. Neither starter returned after the first stoppage. Jorge De La Rosa was cruising along, too, not al- lowing a hit and striking out three in three innings. The hard-throwing lefty has been bothered by a balky back and given the length of the delay, the Rockies went to the bullpen. The Giants made the same call with Tim Hud- son, who went three innings and allowed one run before exiting. Hudson missed his start last Friday because of a strained left hip.
