Cam Ward stopped 24 shots, including brilliant saves on breakaways by Scottie Upshall and Jeff Carter late in the first period. Joffrey Lupul and Carter each had a goal and an assist for the Flyers. Biron had 27 saves. Sharks 6, Stars 2: At Dallas, Dan Boyle scored two goals, Evgeni Nabokov made 25 saves and NHL-leading San Jose won its sixth straight to improve to 19-3-1.

Joe Pavelski, Milan Michalek, Rob Blake and Tomas Plihal also scored for San Jose. Loui Eriksson and James Neal scored for Dallas. Capitals 3, Canadiens 0: At Washington, Jose Theodore made 28 saves for the first shutout with Washington, and Alex Ovechkin, Tomas Fleischmann and David Steckel scored goals. Sabres 4, Penguins 3: At Buffalo, Paul Gaustad broke a tie with his second goal, and Drew Stafford had two goals and an assist in Buffalo's comeback victory.
