New York: The Dallas Stars recorded their first shoot-out win of the season when they beat the New Jersey Devils.
Left winger Jamie Benn and center Jason Spezza scored for Dallas in the shootout, while Dallas goaltender Kari Lehtonen stopped New Jersey wingers Mike Cammalleri and Jaromir Jagr to seal the win.
Dallas, which did not allow a power play opportunity the entire game, got second-period goals from Benn and right winger Patrick Eaves.
Meanwhile, the Anaheim Ducks stretched their winning streak to seven games when they beat the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Defensemen Sami Vatanen, center Ryan Getzlaf and right winger Corey Perry each contributed a goal and an assist.
Rookie goaltender John Gibson allowed just one goal, a wonky puck that fluttered in off an Anaheim defender. In another match, left winger Jonathan Drouin scored the first goal of his NHL career to spark the Tampa Bay Lightning to victory over the Winnipeg Jets. The 19-year-old third overall pick in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft beat Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec at 4:45 of the second period as the Lightning went ahead 2-0. REUTERS
