ADELBODEN, Switzerland -- Marcel Hirscher mastered a classic Swiss slope yet again Sunday, winning a World Cup slalom to seize the lead in the overall and discipline standings. Hirscher, the Austrian two-time defending overall champion, sliced through the gates on a thrilling run down the steep final slope to beat Andre Myhrer of Sweden by 0.29 seconds. "Its maybe a stupid decision," Hirscher said about his risk-taking. "If you give a lot, you can win a lot." Teenager Henrik Kristoffersen of Norway was third, trailing 0.66 behind Hirschers combined two-run time of 1 minute, 49.75 seconds. Hirscher won this race for the past two years en route to taking the giant crystal globe as the worlds best Alpine skier. "Its very wonderful here," Hirscher said of the historic venue which has featured since the World Cup started in 1967. "Its kind of a special race and its working pretty well for me." Felix Neureuther of Germany lost his unbeaten record in 2014 by straddling a gate when poised to challenge Hirschers time. With 100 race points for victory, Hirscher now leads Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway by 23 points in the overall standings. Svindal is a speed specialist who skips slalom races. Ted Ligety of the United States retained a distant third place overall despite skiing out in the second run. Calgarys Brad Spence continued his comeback from injury with a 20th place finish. Hirscher also took the discipline standings lead from teammate Mario Matt who failed to finish the second run. He leads by 60 points from Mattias Hargin of Sweden, who placed fourth Sunday after being fastest in the morning. With his fourth win this season, the 24-year-old Hirscher has 22 career World Cup victories including 12 in slalom. Kristoffersen, a 19-year-old junior world champion in two events, got his second career podium finish one day after almost colliding with a television production worker who strayed on the course during Saturdays giant slalom won by Neureuther. "I skied over the back of his skis. I was definitely touching him a little bit there. (It) happens. Were only humans," Kristoffersen said. Spence, who underwent knee surgery in the spring of 2012, started from 45th place and finished with a two-run combined time of 1:52.76. "My goal was a top-20 (finish)," he said. "I knew I could qualify with bib 45. It was just a matter of doing things right. Ive been training really well but on race day things werent coming together. "To have that first run and qualify and then an OK second run, its a good day." Canadian alpine skiiers typically need two top-12 World Cup results to make the Olympic team, but with Spences injury status last season, a top-20 may be enough to earn him a spot. Bode Miller placed outside the top-30 in the morning Sunday so did not qualify for a second run. The American veteran, who won this race in 2002, lost his race line and speed at the top of the final pitch. David Chodounsky of the U.S. was eighth, 1.70 behind Hirscher, to follow his 10th place here one year ago. The host Switzerland team offered little for an enthusiastic crowd of 12,000 spectators on a sunny day with temperatures rising above 43 F (6 C). Only Markus Vogel advanced to the second run and placed 17th. "The crowd is one of the most fair on the World Cup tour," said Hirscher, whose next race is next Sunday in slalom at nearby Wengen. The three-race Wengen meeting includes the Lauberhorn downhill Saturday that is the traditional highlight of the Swiss sporting year. Air Max Boty Levně .

Notes on Fraser, Murray, Vanek, Carter, Vatanen, Andersen and more. FRASER THE OT HERO FOR BRUINS The Montreal Canadiens had an opportunity to take a 3-1 series lead against the favoured Boston Bruins with Game Four headed to overtime scoreless. Then, Bruins rookie LW Matt Fraser knocked a loose puck into the net to give the Bruins a 1-0 win, tying the series at two games apiece. Fraser, a 24-year-old winger called up to replace demoted winger Justin Florek, had three goals and five points in 27 career NHL games, but has been an effective scorer in the AHL, scoring 90 goals in 179 AHL games over the past three seasons. Fraser, who was acquired from Dallas as part of the Tyler Seguin trade, joined Carl Soderberg and Loui Eriksson on a Bruins third line that dominated play, the trio on the ice for more than 70% of 5-on-5 shot attempts, led by Fraser at 74.1%. Canadiens D P.K. Subban played 22:52, the first time under 26 minutes in this series, yet 1:19 into overtime, when Fraser scored, the Habs had the pairing of Douglas Murray and Mike Weaver on defence and that should have been an indication of trouble. That pairing was obliterated in terms of puck possession, on the ice for four shot attempts for and 20 against. Francis Bouillon wasnt great for Montreal, but hes been more effective than Murray, who has been on ice for 12 shot attempts for and 42 against (22.2 Corsi%) in two games. While were pointing out troubling signs for the Canadiens, RW Thomas Vanek didnt have a single shot attempted in 16:09 of ice time. The only other Canadiens to get zero shot attempts were Daniel Briere, who played a game-low 8:02, and Weaver. Montreals leader in shot attempts was captain Brian Gionta, with eight. Bostons leader, in terms of shot attempts, was D Dougie Hamilton, who had eight in 23:28, his second-highest ice time of the playoffs. If the Canadiens are going to pull off this series upset, they are really going to have to earn it. The series is even even though the Bruins have held the lead for less than four minutes in four games. Thats not to say that tthe Bruins havent been the better team -- theyve controlled more of the play -- but this series was there for the taking and now its a best-of-three with two games in Boston.dddddddddddd DUCKS GET ON THE BOARD The Anaheim Ducks got a late second-period goal from Teemu Selanne, then needed a late third-period marker from Ben Lovejoy to ultimately give them a 3-2 lead in Game Three against the Los Angeles Kings. The Kings now lead the series two games to one. The Kings held a possession edge throughout the game, particularly taking advantage against the Ducks line of Mathieu Perreault, Patrick Maroon and Teemu Selanne, a trio that was on the ice for 22.2% or less of 5-on-5 shot attempts. At the same time, Maroon set up Anaheims first goal, on the power play and, as noted, Selanne scored a crucial go-ahead goal. Anaheim was forced to turn to G Jonas Hiller for the last 9:58 of the third period, as starter Frederik Andersen left with a lower-body injury. Andersen had stopped 22 of 23 shots when he got hurt. Jeff Carter led the Kings with a goal and an assist, four shots on goal and seven shot attempts, though Carter and linemates Tanner Pearson and Tyler Toffoli started more than 80% of their shifts in the offensive zone, so they were tilted in that direction. For the Ducks, it was Ryan Getzlaf, who had an assist, four shots and seven attempts. The Ducks inserted D Sami Vatanen into the lineup, playing the Finnish rookie 20:19; only Francois Beauchemin played more among Anaheim defencemen. Theres a reasonable argument to be made that, although undersized, Vatanen should already be handling regular minutes on the Ducks blueline, rather than toiling in the minors waiting for a call-up when the team is in trouble. After dropping the first two games of the series at home, the Ducks desperately needed to get a positive result in Game Three. It wasnt easy, and they lost their starting goaltender in the process, but their win makes the Freeway Series much more interesting heading towards Game Four.
