Sean Monahan had a goal and an assist, while Matt Stajan and Mason Raymond also scored for the Flames. Dennis Wideman had two assists, and goalie Jonas Hiller stopped 33 shots. Justin Abdelkader scored twice for Detroit and Erik Cole had two assists to record his first points with the Red Wings. Goaltender Jimmy Howard made 19 saves. Blackhawks 2, Oilers 1 (SO): Antoine Vermette scored the tiebreaking goal to lift Chicago to a 2-1 shootout win over Edmonton. Brent Seabrook scored during regulation for the Blackhawks (39-21-5), who won for the fourth time in their past five games. Chicago goaltender Corey Crawford turned aside 46 of 47 shots in regulation before stopping all three of Edmonton's shootout attempts. Wild 3, Hurricanes 1: Minnesota recovered from a shaky second period to score a couple of rapid-fire goals in the third period and defeat Carolina 3-1 at PNC Arena.

Blue Jackets 3, Devils 2: Defenseman Justin Falk, who was acquired in a trade Monday, scored his first goal in more than three years and added an assist to lead Columbus over New Jersey 3-2 at the Prudential Center.

Goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky, making only his second start after missing a month with a groin injury, made 21 saves to collect his 17th win of the season. Senators 3, Sabres 2: Early third-period goals 1:34 apart by Mika Zibanejad and Mark Stone lifted Ottawa to a 3-2 win over Buffalo at Canadian Tire Centre.

Senators goalie Andrew Hammond improved his record to 7-0-1 as a starter by making 24 saves. — Reuters
