NHL - Results - Saturday, November 14, 2015


NY Rangers @ Ottawa 2-1 SO
Dan Boyle scored the decisive goal in the shootout when he scored on Senators goaltender Craig Anderson in the third round. Each team scored on the power play in a wide open and entertaining first period when the Rangers outshot the Senators 11-10. Chris Kreider scored his third goal of the season for the Rangers at 2:31 with Ottawa's Milan Michalek in the penalty box for holding. Keith Yandle passed the puck to Kevin Hayes in the high slot and Kreider deflected Hayes' shot. The Senators took advantage of an odd-man rush during their power play when Ryan McDonagh fell in the Ottawa zone. Bobby Ryan and Mika Zibanejad, on the front end of a 5-on-2, passed the puck back and forth before Zibanejad set up Erik Karlsson for his third goal of the season, third in three games, at 6:33. Kreider was assessed an instigator penalty, five minutes for fighting and a misconduct after fighting Ottawa's Zack Smith at 15:37 of the second period. It occurred after Smith hit Derek Stepan in front of the benches. Stepan left the game but returned in the third period. Each team had chances to win it in overtime. Ottawa's Mike Hoffman hit the post twice and New York's Rick Nash hit the post after an end-to-end rush. Zibanejad shot wide when it looked like he had Lundqvist beaten to the stick side after a setup from Ryan.

Detroit @ Boston 1-3
Patrice Bergeron put Boston ahead 1-0 with a yeoman's effort, skating end to end and tapping in a rebound of his own shot from behind Mrazek at 7:18.
David Krejci scored on a wrist shot high to the glove side for a 2-0 lead at 11:10. Loui Eriksson gathered the puck at the Boston blue line and hit Krejci with a pass in stride at the red line. The Bruins took a 3-0 lead to the second intermission because of Krug's first goal of the season. Dirty Dog Brad Marchand won a battle for the puck at the Boston blue line against Detroit captain Henrik Zetterberg. After skating end to end against defenseman Mike Green, Marchand cut to the net and hit Krug with a backhand pass, and the defenseman buried a one-timer at 17:00. During a power play, Abdelkader beat Rask with a backhand at the end of a 3-on-2 off a feed from Niklas Kronwall at 6:37 of the third period.
Prior to the game, there was a moment of silence to honor the victims of the attacks in Paris on Friday.


Vancouver @ Toronto 2-4
James Van Riemsdyk gave the Maple Leafs the lead at 8:23 of the first period with his sixth goal of the season. He took a drop pass from center Nazem Kadri and snapped a high shot from the top of the faceoff circle past Miller. Parenteau made it 2-0 at 8:51 of the second period, three seconds after the first half of a 5-on-3 power play expired. It was his fourth goal of the season. Michael Grabner had an opportunity to add to Toronto's lead at 14:50 when he was awarded a penalty shot, but Miller used his pad to stop Grabner's attempt. The save appeared to lift the Canucks, who made it 2-1 at 16:33 when Hansen beat Dion Phaneuf to the inside and snapped a shot past Reimer for his fifth goal of the season. Grabner appeared to get his first goal of the season at 18:39 when he tipped a Jake Gardiner blast from the left point past Miller, but referee Justin St. Pierre disallowed the goal, ruling Grabner's stick was above the crossbar.
Matthias, a former Canuck, gave Toronto a 3-1 lead at 1:49 of the third period, converting from in tight on a give-and-go with center Tyler Bozak. Hansen appeared to have scored his second of the night at 4:53, but after a video review, the goal was waved off because Hansen was ruled to have used a deliberate kicking motion to direct the puck into the net. Vancouver kept pushing and made it 3-2 at 10:36 when Yannick Weber's power-play shot from the left point hit Burrows and went past Reimer with Parenteau in the penalty box. It was Burrows' fourth goal of the season. But Lupul restored Toronto's two-goal lead at 16:16 when he drilled home his sixth goal of the season, and the 200th of his career, following a scramble in front of the Vancouver net. The Canucks challenged the goal, claiming Miller was interfered with, but it was allowed to stand after video review. Radim Vrbata beat Reimer with two seconds remaining, but Babcock challenged that the play was offside and the goal was washed out after a review.


Florida @ Tampa Bay 5-4 SO
Brandon Pirri scored the only goal in the shootout to give the Panthers a 5-4 win against the Lightning at Amalie Arena. Aaron Ekblad tied the game with a power-play goal with 38 seconds left in the third period after Ryan Callahan was whistled for delay of game for sending the puck over the glass at 19:17. Panthers goalie Roberto Luongo stopped Victor Hedman, Brian Boyle and Valtteri Filppula in the shootout. Luongo, who made 24 saves, also stopped Steven Stamkos on a penalty shot with 1:51 remaining in overtime. Pirri scored on a penalty shot in the second period for the Panthers, who also got goals from Jussi Jokinen and Nick Bjugstad. Vladislav Namestnikov, who was moved to the top line with Stamkos and Callahan earlier in the week, scored two goals for the Lightning, and Cedric Paquette and Anton Stralman each had a goal. Namestnikov gave the Lightning a 4-3 lead at 9:56 of the third period. He was camped out in front of Luongo and scored after Stamkos worked the puck to the front of the net.
Pirri's penalty-shot goal gave Florida a 3-2 lead at 4:47 of the second period. After being hooked by Matthew Carle on a breakaway, he went to the five-hole to get the puck past Tampa Bay goalie Ben Bishop. Stralman tied it 3-3 on his first goal of the season when he followed up a shot by Alex Killorn during a scramble in front of Luongo at 7:49 of the second. Namestnikov gave the Lightning a 2-1 lead at 1:02 of the second period with one of the easier goals he's going to score in the NHL. Luongo lost his balance while moving from side to side and fell down, leaving an open net for Namestnikov. The Panthers quickly responded with Bjugstad's sixth goal at 2:39 of the second. The opportunity came when he recovered a bad pass that Erik Condra misplayed at the blue line. Jokinen gave the Panthers a 1-0 lead at 4:48 in the first period. Vincent Trocheck and Brian Campbell had the assists. Paquette tied the game at 15:22 of the first when he cleaned up a rebound off a shot from J.T. Brown that hit the post.

Vladislav Namestnikov: "I thought we played a great game and had bad luck at the end there with the penalty. To score goals always adds to confidence, but you have to keep working and getting better. It's hard, but we will regroup and get ready for the next game."


Philadelphia @ Carolina 3-2 OT
Jakub Voracek stood alone outside the crease, stick down, waiting to finish the game in overtime. That's when Michael Del Zotto sent a hard pass for the game-winning goal, ultimately ending Voracek's nightmare. Voracek's first goal of the season came 37 seconds into overtime. Shayne Gostisbehere, promoted from Lehigh Valley of the American Hockey League, set up the tying goal with 3:09 remaining in the third period. He put a move on Chris Terry at the blue line and sent a hard shot to the net that went off Wayne Simmonds and past Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward (16 saves). Elias Lindholm gave Carolina a 1-0 lead at 14:50 of the first period. On a 2-on-1, Lindholm took a pass from Eric Staal and slipped the puck into the crease from behind the goal line. Flyers goalie Steve Mason, who made 19 saves, scrambled for the loose puck, but Lindholm circled the net and scored from the left side. His second goal of the season ended a 13-game drought. The Hurricanes grabbed a two-goal lead when Victor Rask scored at 6:00 of the second period. With Ryan White in the box for boarding Ryan Murphy, Eric Staal gathered a rebound off the end wall and found Rask alone in the left circle with an open net. Murphy played one more shift in the second period before leaving the game because of an upper-body injury. Luke Schenn scored from along the boards to cut the deficit to 2-1. His shot appeared to handcuff Ward, beating him over the glove at 12:02 of the second. Michael Raffl and Voracek assisted.

Phoenix @ Columbus 2-5
Coach John Tortorella said there would be opportunities for players to step up in the wake of the elbow injury that will keep center Brandon Dubinsky out of the Columbus Blue Jackets' lineup for the next 2-3 weeks. Against the Coyotes, that player was second-year center William Karlsson, who scored his first two goals of the season in a 5-2 win. Karlsson, 22, was acquired on March 2 in the trade that sent defenseman James Wisniewski to the Anaheim Ducks. He had three goals in 37 previous NHL games but looked like a natural goal-scorer against Arizona. Karlsson put Columbus ahead 4-2 with 9:18 left in the third period by pouncing on the rebound of Cam Atkinson's shot for his second of the game. Brandon Saad added some insurance for Columbus with 4:42 remaining, scoring his seventh of the season. Boone Jenner got his second assist of the game to go along with a goal.
Domi was involved in a fracas late in the second period that led to Jenner scoring the Blue Jackets' second power-play goal of the game. Jenner put the Blue Jackets ahead to stay with 3:46 remaining when he redirected a Johansen shot past goaltender Mike Smith for his team-high ninth goal.
With 18 seconds left in the second period, Dirty Dog Shane Doan was given a game misconduct after several players engaged near the Columbus bench. Doan played his 1,411th NHL game to tie Harry Howell for 30th place on the NHL's all-time games played list.
"It's his [referee's] prerogative. He's the ref. I have to respect it. I disagree with it. In 20 years I've never seen it. I never swore. I never said anything like that." Doan said. No Shane, your just a dirty cheap shot, who should have retired from the game long ago.

Edmonton @ Los Angeles 3-4
Nick Shore scored with 1:37 remaining to give the Kings a 4-3 win against the Oilers. He grabbed a loose puck, turned toward the net and scored on a wrist shot from between the circles that beat Edmonton goalie Cam Talbot. It was Shore's second goal this season, third of his NHL career and first game-winner.
Shore had not scored since 1:49 into the season opener Oct.7. Taylor Hall tied it 3-3 with 4:50 remaining, a one-time shot off a backhand feed from Oscar Klefbom that went between Drew Doughty's skates for his eighth goal of the season. The Kings were initially in position to win on Milan Lucic's goal that made it 3-1. Lucic was left unchecked in the slot and beat Talbot five-hole at 8:35 of the second period. Tyler Toffoli sent a pass to Lucic after Jeff Carter carried the puck along the boards. The line of Lucic, Carter and Toffoli has scored 22 of the Kings' 43 goals, so balance was needed. The Oilers pulled to 2-1 and 3-2 on goals by Draisaitl and Purcell in the second. Draisaitl one-timed Hall's pass to finish a rush at 5:17, and Purcell, a former King, scored on a wrist shot past a screened Jonathan Quick at 13:53. Gaborik scored 77 seconds into the game, his first goal since Oct.18, with a shot he tucked inside the right post.
