Nhl roundup | Sunday’s games
Flames 3, Blackhawks 2, OT
CHICAGO
Calgary’s Kris Russell scored at 1:32 of overtime while Reto Berra made 42 saves in his first NHL game. Russell’s shot from the blue line clanked off the crossbar and past Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford, ending Calgary’s 10-game losing streak in Chicago. The Flames won at the United Center for the first time since March 2008. Mike Cammelleri and Curtis Glencross scored in regulation for the Flames. Calgary’s T.J. Galiardi missed on a second-period penalty shot. Chicago’s Marian Hossa scored a power-play goal with 4:19 left in the third period to tie it at 2. Patrick Kane also scored for Chicago, which had won three in a row. Crawford made 27 saves.
Wild 4, Devils 0
ST. PAUL, MINN.
Josh Harding stopped 19 shots for his second shutout of the season for Minnesota. Mikael Granlund, Torrey Mitchell, Dany Heatley and Jason Pominville scored for the Wild, who have won five of six. Nino Niederreiter had three assists. Cory Schneider, back after missing three games with a sore groin, finished with 16 saves for New Jersey. The Devils were blanked for the second straight night and fourth time in 14 games.
Stars 4, Senators 3, SO
OTTAWA
Jordie Benn scored the game winner in the shootout. The game had a number of twists and turns, but perhaps the most disconcerting for the Senators was the injury to goalie Craig Anderson. With 1:32 gone in overtime, Anderson went down hard after being hit by Valeri Nichushkin. He was taken off the ice on a stretcher after he appeared to take a knee to the head. Anderson faced 36 shots before Robin Lehner was forced into action. Lehner stopped two shots in overtime. Antoine Roussel, Ray Whitney and Nichushkin scored for the Stars (6-6-2). Kari Lehtonen stopped 36 shots.
