DEVILS
6, PENGUINS 3
PITTSBURGH -- Travis Zajac had
a goal and three assists, Keith Kinkaid made
37 saves and the New Jersey Devils had
little trouble in a 6-3 victory over the sluggish Pittsburgh Penguins on
Monday night.
Pavel Zacha, Damon Severson, Brian Boyle, Blake Coleman and Kyle Palmieri also
scored as New Jersey snapped a three-game skid. The NHL's worst road team
improved to 6-17-3 away from home. Two of those wins have come at the expense
of the Penguins, who have dropped four of five overall and looked a step slow
following a nine-day break.
Derick Brassard got
his ninth goal for Pittsburgh before being ejected in the third period for
elbowing. Matt Cullen and Bryan Rust added
late goals after the game was decided. Matt Murray allowed
six goals on 32 shots as the Penguins began the stretch run with another
clunker against the Devils.
FLYERS
3, JETS 1
PHILADELPHIA -- Phil Varone, Travis Konecny and James van Riemsdyk scored
to lead Philadelphia to its season-high fourth straight win.
Carter Hart has
won all four of those games in goal for the Flyers and has been a needed spark
of optimism for one of the worst teams in the NHL. He stopped 31 shots and won
his seventh game since his late-December call-up.
Jack Roslovic scored
for Winnipeg. Laurent Brossoit had
28 saves.
