Personal life , felt as if they let Hartsburg down, ultimately costing him his spot behind the bench. It appears - at least initially - that Anaheim doesn't want to make the same mistake twice. The Ducks gave new coach Guy Charron Guy Joseph Jean Charron (born January 24, 1949, in Verdun, Quebec) was a professional ice hockey centre. He played in the NHL from 1969 - 1981. He also coached on and off from 1990 - 2003. his second victory in as many tries with their 3-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning The Tampa Bay Lightning is a professional ice hockey team based in Tampa, Florida, USA. It is a member of the Southeast Division of the Eastern Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). on Sunday. An announced crowd of 11,207 at The Pond - third smallest in the eight-year history of the franchise - saw Anaheim (13-15-4-3, 33 points) win its season-high third consecutive game and fourth in its last five. ``I don't know Don't know (DK, DKed) "Don't know the trade."

McInnis scored the go-ahead goal early in the second period, when he poked in a rebound off of a shot from pinching defenseman Pavel Trnka. Thirty eight seconds prior to that, Anaheim tied the game 1-1 when Oleg Tverdovsky sneaked in the back door along the left wing. He took a pass from center Tony Hrkac, stationed behind the net, and lifted a shot over Tampa Bay goalie Dan Cloutier. ``I've played on the power play pretty much my whole career,'' said Hrkac, who has moved from the fourth line to the first line, centering wings Teemu Selanne and Kariya. ``On the goal, Paul pulls the other defender out and I try to find Teemu in front. If it's not open, I look for Oleg finding a lane.'' Hrkac added an empty-net goal with 21 seconds left in the game. Anaheim played a sluggish first period against a Lightning team that embarrassed the Kings a night earlier at Staples Center. However, Ducks veteran goalie Guy Hebert kept his team in the game with three solid stops on a Tampa Bay power play. Hebert stopped all but one of Tampa Bay's 26 shots and the Ducks penalty-kill unit shined as well. The unit denied the Lightning on all six Tampa Bay power plays, including a 5-on-3 that lasted 92 seconds. ``It wasn't easy tonight,'' Charron said. ``The first period was definitely not a good period for us. We had to regroup re·group v. re·grouped, re·group·ing, re·groups v.tr. To arrange in a new grouping. v.intr. 1. To come back together in a tactical formation, as after a dispersal in a retreat. in the second period and I thought we played a good third period in a one-goal game.'' Tampa Bay went ahead 1-0 late in the first when Brad Richards wristed a shot past Hebert. On the goal, it appeared Hebert might have been screened by his own defenseman, Jason Marshall. The Lightning outshot the Ducks 12-7 in the first period, but Anaheim's two goals in five shots during that 38-second span early in the second period turned the game around.
