Nabokov makes 45 saves in Islanders win
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 09 - 02 - 2012

Evgeni Nabokov made 45 saves and Frans Nielsen and John Tavares scored on Ilya Bryzgalov in a shootout, helping the Islanders beat the host Philadelphia Flyers, 1-0, Tuesday.
Nabokov was sensational, turning aside every shot he faced — including two in the shootout. He recorded his 52nd career shutout and second this season.
Coming off losses to the Devils and the Rangers, the Flyers hoped to rebound against a team they used to dominate. But they could not get the puck past Nabokov. Nielsen scored on the first shot in the shootout. After Nabokov stopped Danny Briere, Tavares fired one past Bryzgalov.
Nabokov registered his 305th win, tying the former Islander Billy Smith for 22nd on the career list.
Nielsen had another reason to celebrate. Before the game, he agreed to a four-year contract reportedly worth $11 million.
Capitals 4, Pathers 0: Mathieu Perreault scored with 13 seconds elapsed, Alex Ovechkin had two goals and host Washington beat Florida to take over first place in the Southeast Division.
Canadiens 3, Penguins 2: Tomas Plekanec scored on Montreal's eighth attempt in the shootout to lead the host Canadiens.
Canucks 4, Predators 3: Alex Edler scored in the sixth round of a shootout, and visiting Vancouver posted its fifth win in six games.
Blues 3, Senators 1: David Perron scored twice as St. Louis handed host Ottawa its seventh straight loss.
Avalanche 5, Blackhawks 2: Gabriel Landeskog broke a tie 38 seconds into the third period and David Jones added two goals, helping host Colorado snap a five-game skid.
Other results: Los Angeles 3, Tampa bay 1; Phoenix 4, Dallas 1; Columbus 3, Minnesota 1; New Jersey 1, NY Rangers 0; Winnipeg 2, Toronto 1.
