Ducks sneak past Oilers for fifth straight win
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 17 - 12 - 2013

NEW YORK — Dustin Penner scored the game-winning goal late in the third period as the Anaheim Ducks defeated the Edmonton Oilers 3-2 Sunday.
Penner, with an assist from Ryan Getzlaf, delivered with 3:17 remaining in the game. For Getzlaf, it was the 14th consecutive contest in which he recorded a point.
Anaheim right-winger Corey Perry had his string of seven straight games with a goal snapped, but that mattered little to the Ducks, who extended their unbeaten run in regulation at home to a franchise-best 13-0-2.
The Ducks (23-7-5) remain the lone club without a home loss in regulation. They also defeated the Oilers (11-21-3) for the fifth consecutive time and 10th in the past 11 meetings.
Blackhawks 3, Kings 1: Marian Hossa, Kris Versteeg and Patrick Sharp scored goals, while goalie Antti Raanta stopped 21 shots as the Chicago Blackhawks defeated the Los Angeles Kings 3-1.
With the win, Chicago improved to 24-7-5.
The victory also moved Chicago coach Joel Quenneville into a tie with Pat Quinn (684) for fourth place on the NHL's all-time coaches win list. Scotty Bowman, now a special assistant for the Blackhawks, holds the record with 1,244 wins, followed by Al Arbour (782) and Dick Irvin (692).
Rangers 4, Flames 3 (SO): Benoit Pouliot scored the game-winning goal in a seven-round shootout to lead the New York Rangers to a win over the Calgary Flames.
Derek Stepan, Carl Hagelin and Chris Kreider scored in regulation for New York, who ended a four-game losing streak. Goalie Henrik Lundqvist stopped 18 of 21 shots.
Mikael Backlund, Curtis Glencross and Sean Monahan scored during regulation time for Calgary, who fell to 13-15-5. Karri Ramo made 20 saves for the Flames.
Capitals 5, Flyers 4 (SO): Alex Ovechkin scored his league-leading 27th goal with 48 seconds remaining in regulation to send the game into overtime and Nicklas Backstrom netted the game-winner in the shootout, leading the Capitals to victory.
Claude Giroux, Mark Streit, Jakub Voracek and Sean Couturier scored for the Flyers (14-15-4).
Lightning 3, Red Wings 0: Ben Bishop made 28 saves to register his sixth career shutout, and the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Detroit Red Wings.
Panthers 2, Canadiens 1: Florida Panthers right-winger Jesse Winchester and Nick Bjugstad scored goals 2:27 apart in the second period, goalie Scott Clemmensen made 17 saves, and the Panthers extended their winning streak to three games.
The Panthers (12-17-5) have won five of six. — Agencies
