Rangers 3, Devils 1

Henrik Lundqvist made 41 saves and Ryan Callahan triggered a three-goal outburst in the second period as New York beat New Jersey Saturday night.

Callahan, Marian Gaborik and Chris Drury scored for the Rangers, who ended a two-game losing streak with only their second win in the last nine games.

The win ended a personal six-game losing streak for Lundqvist, improving his record to 17-6-5 against New Jersey.

Dainius Zubrus scored for the Atlantic Division-leading Devils, who have one win in their last four games.

Callahan had a goal and an assist as the Rangers struck three times in a span of 2:39 to snap a scoreless deadlock in the second period. Callahan got the Rangers going at the 7:20 mark, making a hard pass across the slot that Gaborik deflected for a power-play goal. It was the team-leading 35th goal for Gaborik.

New York kept swarming the New Jersey zone, scoring again 56 seconds later. This time it was Callahan getting an unassisted goal, picking off a weak clearing attempt by Devils defenseman Mike Mottau and firing the puck past Martin Brodeur.

Drury added the third goal, beating Brodeur from between the circles.

Canucks 3, Bruins 2

Pavel Demitra tied the game on a tip-in with 4:42 left and scored the only goal of the shootout to help Vancouver hand Boston its 10th straight loss.

The defeat was the ninth in a row at home for the Bruins. Both streaks are the second-longest in club history.

The Canucks ended a two-game skid on the fourth stop of the longest road swing in NHL history, a 14-game trip caused by the Olympics.

Roberto Luongo stopped all three Bruins shootout shots, and Demitra beat rookie Tuukka Rask on Vancouver's first attempt.

The Bruins blew a two-goal lead for the third time in four games, losing all three in shootouts.

Zdeno Chara and Michael Ryder scored first-period power-play goals for Boston.

Mason Raymond scored in the second period for Vancouver.

Hurricanes 3, Islanders 1

Justin Peters made 34 saves in his NHL debut, and Jussi Jokinen, Patrick Dwyer and Joni Pitkanen supported him with goals to help Carolina beat New York.

Frans Nielsen's short-handed goal in the second was the only offense the Islanders could muster against the 23-year-old Peters, who made 11 third-period saves.

Carolina salvaged a split of a four-game road trip, winning games on back-to-back nights against Buffalo and New York. Pitkanen's long-rang goal with Rick DiPietro trying to get to the bench with a minute left added the insurance marker.

The Islanders have scored just nine goals during a season-high seven-game losing streak - their longest since last season's eight-game slide from Jan. 2-19.

Before the game, Hurricanes officials confirmed starting goalie Cam Ward will see a back specialist Monday. Ward missed his second straight game after his back stiffened up on a flight from Calgary to Buffalo.

Kings 4, Red Wings 3

Michal Handzus scored his second goal on a rebound with 2:21 to play, and Los Angeles furiously rallied from a three-goal deficit to set a franchise record with its ninth straight victory, beating Detroit.

Alexander Frolov, Handzus and Ryan Smyth scored in the second period after Los Angeles fell behind 3-0 in the first. Jonathan Quick made 20 saves for the Kings, who surpassed the Second Six franchise's eight-game winning streaks during the 1991-92 and 1972-73 seasons.

Henrik Zetterberg scored two goals for the Red Wings, who lost for the ninth time in 12 games while losing three players, including forward Tomas Holmstrom, to injuries. Valtteri Filppula also scored for Detroit, and Jimmy Howard made 23 saves.

Handzus also had an assist, giving him six points in the surging Kings' last two games.

Canadiens 5, Penguins 3

Brian Gionta had two goals and an assist and Jaroslav Halak made 18 saves to win his third straight start, leading the Canadiens to the victory.

Gionta beat Brent Johnson for his second goal of the game and 16th of the season to put Montreal up by three 10:47 into the third.

Tomas Plekanec, Scott Gomez and Mathieu Darche also scored for the Canadiens, who have won three straight.

NOTES

Maple Leafs stunned by death of GM Burke's son

A moment of silence will be held for Brendan Burke, the son of Toronto general manager Brian Burke who died in a car accident, before the Maple Leafs played Ottawa Saturday night.

The 21-year-old Burke died after his car slid sideways into the path of another car on a snowy Indiana road on Friday. Burke's friend, 18-year-old Mark Reedy of Bloomfield Hills, Mich., also died in the accident.

Maple Leafs players found out about the accident after a loss in New Jersey on Friday night.

Toronto's Francois Beauchemin played for Burke when he was general manager for the Anaheim Ducks and recalled celebrating their 2007 Stanley Cup win at a gathering with Brendan.

Brian Burke is also the general manager of the U.S. Olympic team that will begin play in Vancouver on Feb. 16.

Brendan Burke attended Miami of Ohio and was a manager for the school's top-ranked hockey team. He made news last year after ESPN.com ran a story about his decision to tell his father he was gay.

"I had a million good reasons to love and admire Brendan," Brian Burke said in the story. "This news didn't alter any of them."
