PITTSBURGH: Eric Fehr upstaged stars Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin by scoring twice as the Washington Capitals waded through rain drops to beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-1 in a wet NHL Winter Classic Saturday. It was the NHL's first nighttime Winter Classic, and the first of the annual outdoor contests played in occasional rain, but the Capitals handled the elements – and a scoreless Crosby – just fine. Fehr gave Washington its first lead at 2-1 in the second period after Penguins goalie Marc-Andre Fleury abandoned the net, then sealed it with a breakaway goal in the third to give Washington its fifth win in six games. Evgeni Malkin scored Pittsburgh's sole goal. Lightning 2, Rangers 1, OT: In Tampa, Nate Thompson scored 19 seconds into overtime to help Tampa Bay beat New York. Thompson scored from in-close off a pass from the left wing boards by Dana Tyrell. The Rangers forced extra time when Marian Gaborik tied it with 46 seconds left in regulation. Sharks 1, Kings 0: In Los Angeles, Antti Niemi posted his ninth NHL shutout with 29 saves to help San Jose beat Los Angeles. Devin Setoguchi scored the lone goal on his 24th birthday. The Sharks had only 10 shots before Setoguchi scored his seventh goal at 18:54 of the second period. He beat Quick to the stick side with a screened wrist shot after patiently waiting for three players to converge in front of him. Sabres 7, Bruins 6, SO: In Buffalo, Drew Stafford scored a hat trick as Buffalo edged Boston in a shootout. After Tyler Ennis gave the Sabres a 3-2 lead in the shootout, Chara shot wide on the Bruins' final chance. Flames 2, Oilers 1: In Edmonton, Calgary extended its winning streak to a season-best four games with a victory over Edmonton. Maple Leafs 5, Senators 1: In Ottawa, Tyler Bozak scored two goals as Toronto routed Ottawa. Rookie James Reimer made 32 saves in his first NHL start. Hurricanes 6, Devils 3: In Raleigh, North Carolina, Sergei Samsonov and rookie Jeff Skinner scored two goals apiece, and Carolina beat struggling New Jersey for its third straight win.
