looked bleak at best for the coach Doc Rivers Clippers —

WASHINGTON - The Winter Classic began with perhaps a bit too much sun. By the end, seat cushions were falling from the sky.The latest NHL outdoor game had a cliffhanger ending Thursday, with Troy Brouwer scoring with 12.9 seconds remaining to give the Washington Capitals a 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in the leagues annual showcase.Many of the 42,832 fans at Nationals Park celebrated by flinging their commemorative red cushions high into the air, an exclamation point to an event that helped validate the nations capital as an established hockey town.The seventh Winter Classic featured a replica of the Capitol in centre field, through which the players entered the ballpark. They stood on a sheet of blue ice meant to represent the Reflecting Pool during the national anthem, then faced off under a gorgeous blue sky — too gorgeous, if truth be told.The suns glare on the white ice of the main rink made it difficult to see the puck, and Capitals defenceman Karl Alzner made good on his plan to play the game wearing sunglasses.The teams switched sides at the 10-minute mark of the first period to even things out as the shadows from the stands began to cover the rink. It seemed totally unfair when Patrick Sharp launched a sun-to-shade slap shot that beat goalie Braden Holtby on a power play for Chicagos first goal.The NHL considered delaying the start, concerned that the sunny skies would compromise ice conditions and player safety, but the go-ahead was given after the pregame skate.Eric Fehr and Alex Ovechkin also scored for the Capitals.Brandon Saad had the other goal for Chicago.KINGS 3, CANUCKS 2VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Justin Williams and Jarret Stoll scored 53 seconds apart late in the third period to rally Los Angeles past Vancouver.Williams tied the game on a power-play goal with 2:07 left before Stoll scored the winner with 1:14 to go.Dwight King had the other goal for Los Angeles, which got 14 saves from Jonathan Quick.Radim Vrbata had a goal and an assist, and Alexandre Burrows also scored for Vancouver.
