FLAMES 3, DEVILS 2

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Sean Monahan scored with 2:43 left in the third period to lead Calgary over New Jersey.

Monahan scored in his fourth straight game when he took a cross-ice feed from Sven Baertschi and buried it behind Martin Brodeur.

The win extended Calgary's streak to five games without a regulation-time loss to begin a season. It is the first time since the Flames moved to Calgary in 1980 that the team has taken at least one point in each of its first five games.

Dennis Wideman and Mark Giordano also scored for Calgary. Jiri Hudler had two assists to extend his points streak to five games.

Adam Henrique and Dainius Zubrus scored for New Jersey. The Devils are 0-1-2 with two stops to go on their five-game road trip.

SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Brad Boyes scored two goals, Tomas Fleischmann had a goal and three assists, and Florida snapped a three-game losing streak by beating Pittsburgh.

Aleksander Barkov, Jonathan Huberdeau, and Kris Versteeg also scored for Florida and Jacob Markstrom stopped 36 shots.

Pascal Dupuis, Craig Adams, and Evgeni Malkin scored for Pittsburgh, which lost for the first time in four games. Jeff Zatkoff made 24 saves in his NHL debut.

Fleischmann stretched Florida's lead to 5-3 at 6:27 of the third. His shot from the left circle was blocked by Zatkoff, but Fleischmann skated in and poked in the rebound.

Boyes' second goal came during a power play with 34 seconds left to make it 6-3.

STARS 4, JETS 1

WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) — Tyler Seguin had two goals and two assists to lead Dallas over Winnipeg.

Alex Chiasson and Jamie Benn also scored for Dallas, which last played Saturday at home. The Jets (2-3-0) are below .500 after Thursday's 2-1 loss in Minnesota.

Benn had two assists and Chiasson had one.

Blake Wheeler scored his first goal of the season for the Jets in the third period.

KINGS 2, HURRICANES 1, SO

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Jeff Carter scored the shootout winner to lift Los Angeles to victory over Carolina.

Dwight King also scored for the Kings, while Jonathan Quick made 27 saves. Jeff Skinner had Carolina's goal while Cam Ward stopped 36 shots.

Carter went to his backhand in the shootout to beat Ward. Carter had scored four goals in the first four games of the season.

Quick stopped Nathan Gerbe, Alexander Semin and Skinner in the shootout to make Carter's goal hold up as the winner.

Ward, Carolina's No. 1 netminder has yet to win a game this season — both of the Hurricanes' victories have come with backup Anton Khudobin in net

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored the winner with 12.9 seconds left in the second period and Thomas Greiss made the lead stand up in the third period to lift Phoenix over Philadelphia.

The Coyotes have won two straight games on the road after dropping two straight by a combined 10-2 score.
