TAMPA, Fla. -- The Phoenix Coyotes went extra time to get a much needed victory. Radim Vrbata scored the lone shootout goal to lead the Coyotes past the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-3 on Monday night. Vrbata beat Ben Bishop with a backhand. Mike Smith stopped all three Lightning shootout shots. Brandon McMillan, Martin Erat and Mikkel Boedker scored for the Coyotes, who trailed eighth-place Dallas by one point in the Western Conference. Phoenix was coming off a 3-2 loss Saturday at Washington, a game which the Capitals had three unanswered third-period goals. "Were right in the hunt," Smith said. "Were in the thick of things, too, and every point matters right now. So I think you see a desperation from guys on the ice, lying down, blocking shots." Ondrej Palat got the Lightning even at 3-all with his second goal of the game, coming from the low slot with the Tampa Bay net empty and 37.2 seconds left in regulation. Palat also had an assist. "I thought we did a lot of things well tonight," Phoenix coach Dave Tippett said. "Even though they got a late one on us, we found a way to get points, and thats the biggest thing about our season right now. We need points every night." Tampa Bay, 1-4-2 since the Olympic break ended, also got a goal from Tyler Johnson. After Erat scored following an errant defensive zone pass by Lightning defenceman Victor Hedman 2:13 into the third, Boedker put the Coyotes ahead 3-2 with a rebound goal at 7:48. Bishop ended up out of position when Hedmans pass on Erats goal took a bad bounce. "We were just way too lackadaisical," Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said of Erats goal. "The third one, weve run that coverage a thousand times. Its a blown assignment. Those dont go in in midget hockey, let alone the NHL. Or they shouldnt, anyway." Palat gave the Lightning a 2-1 lead from in-close off a pass from Ryan Callahan with 52.3 seconds left in the second. Johnson scored his fourth short-handed goal and 20th overall this season to put the Lightning up 1-0 at 11:26 of the first. With Steven Stamkos off for hooking, the rookie went around stumbling defenceman Keith Yandle and put a backhand past Smith. After not having a short-handed goal last season, Tampa Bay has nine in 2013-14. The Lightning have a short-handed goal in three straight games and six of their past 15. McMillan tied it at 1 on a rebound goal 61 seconds into the second after Bishop stopped Yandles shot. Tampa Bay defenceman Sami Salo left after three shifts in the first period with a lower body injury. Stamkos was pointless in his third straight game since returning from a broken right shin that sidelined him for 45 games. "Its going to take him a little time to get back to normal," Cooper said. Stamkos played 23:31 and had two shots. NOTES: Boedker stopped a 13-game goal drought. ...

The Norwegian all-but has a second title at Parkhead in the bag with Celtic set to be crowned Scottish champions for the fifth successive season following their 3-1 victory over Hearts.Colin Kazim-Richards, Patrick Roberts and Leigh Griffiths were all on target for the Hoops, who were comfortable winners at Tynecastle. The win leaves Celtic nine points clear of Aberdeen with three matches remaining and they are sitting pretty at the top of the table due to their vastly-superior goal difference. Highlights of Celtics 3-1 win over Hearts to all-but wrap up the Scottish Premiership title Deila reiterated everyone at Celtic Park has been pulling together despite some indifferent form in cup competitions throughout the season, and again praised the travelling fans for their backing.I am very happy and proud as well. It is a tough job, especially in the last week, Deila said.You always ask me have you lost the dressing room? I know I never did and today shows that.The players are standing behind me all the time and today they gave a fantastic performance. Colin Kazim-Richards gives Celtic an early lead against Hearts I am so happy for them and also that we can give something back to the fantastic supporters, who have been standing behind us for the whole season.dddddddddddd.Five in a row has not happened so many times and you have to enjoy it and I am going to enjoy it today, I can assure you of that.The biggest challenge in this club is unity.

Celtics Scott Brown (left) and Kieran Tierney celebrate at Tynecastle But if you stay together, the supporters and players, the rest of the club, we are hard to beat and that was shown today.The supporters were really behind us, the players were fighting for each other and then Celtic were the best team.

Unfortunately they made a mistake each today and it costs us two goals.There are going to be days when they wont and we will win the games. But as long as they learn from it.
