SEGUIN HAT TRICK POWERS STARS IN BOSTON

Tyler Seguin (3-0—3) scored a hat trick against his former team to help the Dallas Stars defeat the Boston Bruins 5-3. The Stars earned their fifth win in their past six road games and halted the Bruins' point streak at seven games (6-0-1)

* Seguin, who had 56-65—121 with the Bruins from 2010-13 (203 GP), scored his first goals in five games against his former team (3-2—5). Via the Elias Sports Bureau, Seguin is the first former Bruins player to score a hat trick against the team since Nov. 7, 1996 (Mariusz Czerkawski: 3-0—3 w/ EDM).

* Elias adds that Seguin's six hat tricks since joining the Stars in 2013-14 are the most in the NHL in that span. Seguin has seven hat tricks since entering the NHL in 2010-11, tied with Steven Stamkos for second-most in that span behind Corey Perry (8).

* Jamie Benn, Jason Spezza and John Klingberg each had two assists. Benn (10-10—20) and Seguin (8-12—20), who stretched his point streak to six games (4-6—10), share the League lead with 20 points apiece.

* ICYMI: Seguin tossed a game puck to a fan on her 16th birthday.

TOP LINE POWERS OILERS

The line of Taylor Hall (1-2—3), Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (2-0—2) and Leon Draisaitl (0-2—2) combined for 3-4—7 to help the Edmonton Oilers defeat the Philadelphia Flyers 4-2 and improve to 5-1-3 in their past nine games with the Flyers at Rexall Place dating to Jan. 3, 1999 (PHI: 2-4-3).

* Hall registered at least three points in a game for the second straight game (Oct. 31 vs. CGY: 1-2—3) and for the 18th time in his career. He has three such performances in 13 games in 2015-16 (also Oct. 17 at CGY: 1-2—3), one more than he had all of last season (53 GP).

* In addition, Hall has multiple points in each of his past four games. Elias says Hall is the first Oilers player to record multiple points in four straight games since Tom Gilbert from April 3-10, 2010 (1-8—9).

* Overall, Hall (4-8—12) and Nugent-Hopkins (3-6—9) each extended their point streaks to six games, equaling the longest of their careers.

* Draisaitl has points in all three games since being recalled from the American Hockey League on Thursday, with 3-4—7 in that span, two points shy of his point total from his first 37 career appearances (2-7—9).

IGINLA POWERS AVALANCHE PAST FORMER CLUB

Jarome Iginla (2-1—3) had three points, including the primary assist on the game-winning goal at 13:01 of the third period, to help the Colorado Avalanche snap a four-game skid at Pepsi Center (0-3-1) with a 6-3 win against the Calgary Flames.

* Iginla, who compiled 525-570—1,095 with the Flames from 1996-2013, scored against his former club for the first time. He now has at least one goal against all 30 NHL teams.

* Overall, Iginla (595-642—1,237) moved within two points of Peter Stastny (450-789—1,239) for 37th place on the NHL's all-time points list. He sits five goals shy of becoming the 19th player in NHL history to score 600 goals.

* Nathan MacKinnon (1-2—3) scored his third game-winning goal of the season, tied for tops in the NHL and one more than he had last season (64 GP).

* Five other players had multiple points for the Avalanche: Tyson Barrie (0-3—3), Matt Duchene (2-0—2), Erik Johnson (1-1—2), Gabriel Landeskog (0-2—2) and Francois Beauchemin (0-2—2).

RANGERS HANDLE CAPITALS IN PLAYOFF REMATCH

Four different players -- Derick Brassard, Kevin Hayes, Oscar Lindberg and Kevin Klein -- had 1-1—2 to power the New York Rangers past the Washington Capitals 5-2 in their first game since the 2015 Stanley Cup Playoffs, when New York clinched their Eastern Conference Second Round series in overtime in Game 7.

* The Rangers earned their fifth consecutive win at Madison Square Garden, outscoring opponents 20-5 in that span. Overall, the Rangers have won three straight and own a seven-game point streak (5-0-2).

* Klein scored his first game-winning goal of the season and fifth since the start of 2014-15 (77 GP); he had two such goals in 433 GP prior to that. Lindberg leads NHL rookies with six goals, while Brassard has 3-4—7 in his past four games.

* Turris (8-5—13) leads the Senators with eight goals and is tied with Mark Stone (3-10—13) for the team lead in points.

* Craig Anderson made 36 saves to become the second goaltender to reach 100 wins with the Senators (100-68-26). Only Patrick Lalime (146-100-30) has more victories for the franchise.
