ST. LOUIS - Ryan Miller was looking forward to his return to St. Louis with his new team, and the former Sabres and Blues goaltender made the most of it.Miller made 15 of his season-high 31 saves in the third period, and the Vancouver Canucks scored three times in the final 15:06 of the game to beat the Blues 4-1.It was one I was actually really looking forward to, especially here in St. Louis, Miller said. It was fun.Nick Bonino, Linden Vey and Jannik Hansen broke open a tight game, scoring goals in the third period to help the Canucks (4-2-0, 8 points) snap a two-game losing streak. That made a winner of Miller, who signed a three-year, $18 million contract with Vancouver after the Blues opted not to re-sign him in the off-season.We didnt get the job done, and Im going to feel really bad about that for a long time, Miller said of his time with the Blues. But Im going to continue to push in my career and this is where I ended up, and Im happy to be a Canuck.The Blues fell to 2-3-1 with their second consecutive loss.The Canucks scored just 41 seconds into the first period off a Blues turnover in the neutral zone. Alexandre Burrows wrist shot from the left circle was knocked down by goalie Jake Allen, but Chris Higgins was there to put home the rebound for his second goal of the season.The Blues tied the score with a power-play goal from Kevin Shattenkirk, off assists by David Backes and Alexander Steen, with 12:22 left in the second period after the Canucks were called for too many men on the ice.Bonino put the Canucks ahead to stay with 15:06 remaining in the third period when he scored on an odd-man rush following a Miller save of a Jori Lehtera scoring chance at the other end.The save he made in the third was the game, Vancouver coach Willie Desjardins said of Millers stop on Lehtera. If they score there, its 2-1 them. He made the big save, we went down and scored and that changed the game.Vey scored on the power play with 8:03 remaining, assisted by Henrik Sedin and Radim Vrbata, and Hansen added an unassisted, empty-net goal with 3:01 left.Bonino, Burrows and Higgins each finished with two points.Its good to get that one, especially for Millsy, Bonino said. He made some huge saves in the third and the second, so were happy to win it for him.Miller, who had allowed five goals on 13 shots in a loss to the Stars on Tuesday, came up big in the clutch on Thursday.The Blues acquired Miller from the Sabres before the trade deadline last season, but after winning seven of his first eight starts he struggled down the stretch and posted an .897 save percentage in the six-game, first-round Stanley Cup playoff series loss to the Blackhawks.Listen, things didnt work out here, but hes still Ryan Miller, Shattenkirk said. We dont forget that. Hes still a great goalie and one of the great goalies in this league, so hes a hard guy to beat. Playing the way we did tonight, we had some good chances. We just have to put some more by him.NOTES: The Canucks recorded 23 blocked shots, including five from Luca Sbisa and four apiece from Christopher Tanev and Alexander Edler. .

That led to Watson writing an open letter over the weekend to say he regrets it if his message to the team came out the wrong way and that he takes full responsibility for any mistakes.From my point of view, I think its a little bit disappointing to see the dirty laundry being out in public, first and foremost, Westwood said at the Frys.com Open. Its very difficult to pinpoint in a team environment whose fault it specifically is. Its a combination of a lot of different things. Yeah, maybe Tom got a few things wrong. Maybe the U.S. team just didnt quite play well enough in general. If the other team plays well, youre going to lose.Im just pleased that I dont have to sort it all out because I dont like to see people with great reputations ... being brought down by something that shouldnt really happen in public, he said. It should all be done behind closed doors and sorted out there, and the analysis should start there, and not be done in the press.Westwood knows that feeling.He was benched for the first time in 2008 when Europe, with six-time major champion Nick Faldo as its captain, lost for the only time in the last 15 years. The European players defended Faldo at the closing press conference and closed ranks in the months that followed.I thiink there were a lot of people disappointed in 08, but we tried to come together and basically not say anything in public, Westwood said.dddddddddddd Whenever you lose, youre going to be disappointed and youre going to think things could have been done better. Its just a case of managing it and handling it and improving it for the next time professionally.Phil Mickelson spoke on the final day at Gleneagles of how the Americans have strayed from a winning formula it had in 2008, praising endlessly the work of captain Paul Azinger at Valhalla even as Watson sat six seats away and listened to him. In a tense press conference, Watsons rebuttal was that he had a different philosophy.Matt Kuchar said he was unaware of the post-Ryder Cup stories because he hasnt turned on his TV or read the Internet since he returned from Scotland. Kuchar said he didnt think Mickelson was taking a shot at Watson, rather answering a question about what worked for the Americans in 2008.Whatever was aired out, Im sure it was blown out of proportion, Kuchar said.The PGA of America plans to wait until early next year to appoint its next captain and is contemplating a task force to figure out how to developing a winning culture. As much as the Americans will remember that closing press conference, Westwood said the Europeans wont forget it, either.It cant do anything but building confidence for the European team going into the next one, that its been handled so publicly this time, he said. The fact that the fallout from the Ryder Cup on the U.S. side is being handled publicly and theres stuff being thrown backward and forward and stuff like that, we will remember that going into the next Ryder Cup. I guess well see how easy it is to get the U.S. team rattled by putting a bit of pressure on them.I dont think anything good can come of all this.
