Wednesday's NHL Capsules

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Cam Talbot made 31 saves for his first win of the season and fourth career NHL shutout, and the New York Rangers snapped a three-game losing streak with a 2-0 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday night.

New York, wearing its road white jerseys, beat the Flyers for the ninth straight time at Madison Square Garden in the regular season. Talbot (1-2-1) got the win while subbing for Henrik Lundqvist, who served as his backup.

It was Talbot's first victory since another shutout at Edmonton on March 30 — a span of six games for Talbot. Kevin Klein scored in the first period, and Rick Nash had a goal in the second.

Steve Mason stopped 32 shots for Philadelphia, which lost its third straight.

CANUCKS 5, OILERS 4

EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Radim Vrbata scored two goals in the second period to lead Vancouver to the victory.

Jannik Hansen, Chris Higgins and Yannick Weber also scored for the Canucks (13-6-0), who have won all four of their games against Edmonton this season and three of their last four games overall.

Canucks goalie Ryan Miller improved to 11-0 in his career against Edmonton, now the longest active win streak against a single team in the NHL. He had 28 saves.

The Oilers (6-11-2) have lost four in a row and are winless against the Western Conference, dropping to 0-9-1 in that category.

Steven Pinizzotto, Teddy Purcell, Boyd Gordon and Andrew Ference scored for Edmonton, and Ben Scrivens made 26 stops.
