ST. JOHNS, N.L. -- Goals on home ice havent come easy for Carl Klingberg. But that changed on Friday when the 22-year-old scored twice to lead the St. Johns IceCaps over the visiting Wilkes-Barre-Scranton Penguins 5-0 in American Hockey League play. "It was nice to finally get that (goal) over with," said Klingberg, whose scoring drought at home dated back to Apr. 10 of last season. "Its always nice to score. Its a good game when you score two goals." Klingberg, a native of Sweden, had a slow start to the season. But he now has six goals and 10 points in 20 contests and has seen an increase in playing time, especially on the power play. "At the start of the season, maybe I didnt get that time out there, but Ive worked hard all season," he said. "My power-play (performance) was really good on the road...Im out there a lot more now and when Im out there more, I get more chances to score." IceCaps head coach Keith McCambridge has been pleased with Klingbergs all round effort as of late and has had no trouble giving the prospect extra minutes. "When Carl plays that way, he earns his minutes," he said. "Ive always been a coach that believes in minutes being earned. He was really good our last (two) games. When he skates, he gets in on the forecheck, creates room and is effective in puck-possession. You saw that tonight. When hes able to do that, hes a top-six forward." Zach Redmond, Jerome Samson and Andrew Gordon also scored for the IceCaps (12-9-3) and Eddie Pasquale stopped 20 shots to earn the shutout. Klingberg opened the scoring for the IceCaps at the 15:09 mark of the first period with a backhand from the face-off circle that beat Penguins (13-6-1) goaltender Eric Hartzell blocker side. Klingberg scored again midway through the second period, finishing a pass from JC Lipon, who was behind the net, to make it 2-0 St. Johns. Redmond made it 3-0 before the second period was through when he scored on the power play. Samson and Gordon scored 1:05 apart in the third period to complete St. Johns offence. "I thought we played with some really good structure for the three periods," said McCambridge. "We were committed to blocking shots, and in regards to puck support, we had some speed to our game. We got ourselves out of trouble with some penalty killing and our power play was pretty good after we ironed out a couple areas where we need to be entering the zone." Hartzell made 24 saves for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. The IceCaps went 2 for 5 on the power play while the Penguins failed to score on five chances with the man advantage. Lynn Swann Jersey .

Yet even normally stoic San Antonio couldnt hide its emotion on the court, and the satisfaction afterward, of toppling the two-time defending champion Miami Heat. Tim Duncan had 23 points and 11 rebounds, and the Spurs never trailed against the Heat, weathering a sluggish third quarter for an intense 111-87 victory Thursday. "Im sure this has some special meaning, to say something different would be silly," San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said, "but we expect them to come out hard and play." In their first home game against Miami since losing a heart-wrenching, seven-game NBA Finals, the Spurs handed the Heat their worst loss of the season. The rematch brought out a raucous sold-out crowd and sparked high emotions from both teams. Players dived recklessly for loose balls and yelled at officials, while Popovich often screamed at his own players. "We needed a game like this," Manu Ginobili said. "Weve been talking (about it) all season long. Our record was probably 1-10, 1-8 or something like that against the top four teams in the league. So we needed a big one, and today we played well. . Its one of those wins that really gets you going." Tony Parker scored 17 points, including 14 in a wild first half, Boris Diaw added 16 and Kawhi Leonard had 11 for the Spurs (45-16), which has won five straight. Chris Bosh had 24 points, LeBron James added 19, Dwyane Wade had 16 and Michael Beasley 11 for Miami (43-16). James, who ditched the protective mask he was wearing early in the first half, was hounded by Leonard into shooting 6 for 18. The Spurs didnt do anything different defensively than they had in the past, James said, but the NBA did. The four-time MVP said the short-sleeved, tight-fitting "El Heat" jerseys Miami had to wear are not conducive for shooting. "Im not making any excuses, but Im not a big fan of the jerseys," James said. "So I have to figure something out next time I have to wear the short-sleeve jerseys. Every time I shoot, it feels like its just pulling right up underneath my arm. I already dont have much room for error on my jump shot anyways, so its definitely not a good thing." James got rid of the mask that protected his broken nose with four minutes left in the first quarter. "I dont like it," James said. "Its that simple; just got frustrated with it early on so I took it off.ddddddddddddIt didnt help me, taking it off. Its probably a game-to-game thing." He missed his first two attempts sans mask, tossing up a wild 14-footer that banged off the front of the rim and backboard, then botching a reverse layup. His first mask-free basket was a 5-foot running floater over Leonard with 6:26 left in the half. "(Leonard) was a pest," Duncan said. "Thats what we need him to be. He stuck his hand in there, knocked some balls away, got some steals, he contested shots. I think he did a great job overall in every aspect." The Spurs opened the fourth quarter on a 13-6 run, returning to the breakneck attack that led to a 17-point lead in the first half. Duncans 18-foot jumper gave San Antonio a 99-85 lead with 3:00 remaining, drawing a fist-pounding of the scorers table by Manu Ginobili as he waited to enter the game. The closing run was needed after the Heat kept the Spurs out of the paint early in the second half, to the point Popovich screamed, "Tony! Attack!" after his All-Star point guard walked the ball up midway through the third period. Miami turned up the heat defensively, closing quickly on every pass. San Antonio was 7 for 22 from the field in the third quarter. Miami was 10 for 18 in the quarter, with James, Wade and Bosh scoring six points each. Miami had cut the lead to 79-74 with 2:00 left in the third period, but could get no closer. "They are difficult to guard," Wade said. "They have a great system and they have a very unselfish team. That is why they are one of the better teams in the league. Thy stay true to their system and believe in it." Parker showed no signs of the lower body problems that sidelined him six games last month, driving unrestrained into the paint. Parker played all but the final two minutes of the first quarter, going 5 for 6 from the field in scoring 10 points and dishing out three assists. "Tonys our setup guy," Duncan said. "He runs our team, he sets our pace, sets our rhythm and he played the right way tonight." NOTES: The Spurs Jeff Ayres (sprained right hand) sat out for the second time in the last three games. Ayres has started 10 games. ... Miami received a rousing ovation when it took the court for pregame warmups, but was booed lustily during introductions. ... James glared at official Kevin Scott after drawing consecutive fouls, starting with a charge. He was mum when he drove headlong into Duncan for his third foul of the quarter and fourth overall. ' ' '
