NHL roundup: Lightning beat Flyers for 10th straight win

Nikita Kucherov notched a goal and an assist as the Tampa bay Lightning beat the visiting Philadelphia Flyers 5-3 on Saturday to push the NHL's longest active winning streak to 10 straight.

Brayden Point scored a third-period goal to stretch his point streak to 10 games (three goals, 11 assists). It was the 11th straight home win for the Lightning breaking the team record of 10 wins set in the 2014-15 campaign, and improved them to 22-2-1 in their last 25 contests.

Kucherov returned for the Lightning after missing a game with a lower-body injury. Steven Stamkos, who missed the previous three games with a lower-body injury, recorded two assists.

Ivan Provorov, James van Riemsdyk and Claude Giroux scored for the Flyers. Goalie Carter Hart made 19 saves as Philadelphia lost its seventh straight (0-4-3) against Tampa, dating back to January 2018.

Tyler Toffoli had a hat trick, including two goals in the final 55 seconds, and Los Angeles beat Colorado in the NHL Stadium Series outdoor game at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo.

Saturday was the second NHL outdoor game played at a U.S. Service Academy and the 30th outdoor game in NHL history. The temperature at puck drop was 32.5 degrees, and it fell throughout the game, but the crowd of 43,574 stuck around to the end.

Anze Kopitar and Alex Iafallo had two assists each, and Jonathan Quick had 32 saves for Los Angeles, which won consecutive games for the first time in two months. Samuel Girard scored for the Avalanche, who have lost two in a row.

Stars 4, Canadiens 3 (OT)

Tyler Seguin capped a two-goal performance by scoring 2:52 into overtime as visiting Dallas overcame a three-goal deficit to edge Montreal.

Seguin, who ended a career-long 17-game goal drought in Dallas' win at Toronto on Thursday, scored on the power play late in the second period to trim Montreal's lead to 3-2. Blake Comeau tied the game midway into the third period, and Ben Bishop finished with 29 saves for the Stars, who have won four in a row and improved to 6-1-1 in their last eight games.

Joel Armia, Jordan Weal and Nick Cousins each scored for the Canadiens, who have dropped four in a row (0-3-1).

Sharks 2, Wild 0

Dylan Gambrell scored a fluke goal early in the third period to break a scoreless tie as San Jose spoiled the NHL head-coaching debut of Minnesota's Dean Evason.

Melker Karlsson added an empty-net goal with 15 seconds remaining as the Sharks won for the fourth time in their past five games. Goaltender Martin Jones made 39 saves for his first shutout of the season.

Evason was named Minnesota's interim coach Friday after Bruce Boudreau was fired. The Wild dropped to 7-4-1 in their past 12 games.

Predators 4, Blues 3

Antti Raanta stopped 36 shots, and Phil Kessel scored the go-ahead goal early in the third period, leading Arizona to a 3-1 win over Washington before a sellout crowd in Glendale, Ariz.

Christian Dvorak and Lawson Crouse also scored for the Coyotes, who had lost four of five going into the game. Crouse scored into an empty net with 28 seconds left in the game after the Capitals pulled goaltender Braden Holtby with 1:45 to play.

The Coyotes held Capitals star Alex Ovechkin without a goal, leaving him two shy of becoming the eighth player in NHL history to reach 700. Carl Hagelin had Washington's only goal. Holtby stopped 27 shots as Washington lost for the third time in four games overall.

Oilers 4, Panthers 1

Leon Draisaitl, who leads the NHL with 92 points, scored his 33rd goal to lead Edmonton over host Florida in Sunrise, Fla.

Edmonton also got goals from Adam Larsson, Darnell Nurse and Kailer Yamamoto and 33 saves from Mikko Koskinen. It was the first goal by Larsson since Feb. 19, 2019 -- a span of 58 games. The goals by Nurse and Yamamoto were empty-netters.

The Panthers went 0-for-3 on the power play and are 2-6-1 since a six-game win streak was interrupted by the All-Star break. The Panthers are averaging just 2.0 goals per game during the slump.

Golden Knights 1, Islanders 0

Marc-Andre Fleury made 19 saves to notch the 60th shutout of his career, and Reilly Smith scored the lone goal in Las Vegas as the hosts handed New York its second straight blanking.

Semyon Varlamov stopped 42 shots for New York, which was outshot 43-19, including 20-4 in the second period. The Islanders, who were also shut out in Nashville on Thursday, will take a scoreless streak of 120:04 into their game on Monday at Arizona.
