Monday night’s games

Rangers 2, Jets 1

WINNIPEG, Manitoba

Ryan Callahan scored the Rangers’ second power-play goal of the game at 8:41 of the third period. Ruslan Fedotenko also scored with the man advantage early in the second period. Dan Girardi assisted on both goals. Nik Antropov scored for Winnipeg late in the second period.

Flyers 4, Maple Leafs 2

PHILADELHPIA

Flyers defenseman Chris Pronger left the game after taking a vicious stick to the face. Pronger and Toronto’s Mikhail Grabovski sprinted for a loose puck in the circle after a rebound off Flyers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky. Grabovski slapped at the puck, but his stick connected with Pronger’s and the blade shot straight up into the defenseman’s face. Pronger screamed in agony and instantly clutched his face. Hunched over, he skated straight to the bench, his hands over his eyes.

Panthers 2, Canadiens 1

MONTREAL

Jacob Markstrom got his first NHL victory and Scottie Upshall scored 5:02 into the third period to help the Florida Panthers extend Montreal’s losing streak to six. Markstrom made 40 saves in his second career start. Tomas Fleischmann scored a power-play goal in the first for the Panthers, who won their second in a row to improve to 5-3. Montreal fell to 1-5-2, continuing its worst start in 70 years. It is the deepest the Canadiens have gone into a season with only one win since 1941-42, when they got off to a 1-10-1 start that included a pair of losses to the Brooklyn Americans.
