SATURDAY’s OTHER NHL GAMES AT A GLANCE

Bruins 6, Flyers 3

BOSTON

Brad Marchand had two goals and three assists to lift Boston to a win over slumping Philadelphia. The win improved Boston’s record to .500 at home (10-10) in its first game of a stretch of five of seven at TD Garden heading into the All-Star break at the end of the month. Tuukka Rask was back in goal for Boston after leaving the previous game — a loss at Nashville on Thursday — because he was hit in the throat area by a shot in the opening period.

Predators 3, Avalanche 2

DENVER

Filip Forsberg scored with 11:54 remaining in the third period, Cody McLeod had a goal and a fight against his former team and Nashville rallied for a win over Colorado. Forsberg lined in a shot shortly after corralling a faceoff. Mike Fisher had tied up the game about 3 minutes earlier on a breakaway. Gabriel Landeskog and Francois Beauchemin scored for the struggling Avalanche, who have lost 12 of their past 13 home games.

Canadiens 5, Rangers 4

MONTREAL

Alexei Emelin, Max Pacioretty and Paul Byron scored in a 62-second span of the third period to lift Montreal over New York. Alex Galchenyuk scored in his return after injuring his knee Dec. 4, and Brian Flynn also had a goal for Montreal. Brandon Pirri, Rick Nash, J.T. Miler and Derek Stepan scored for the Rangers, who were coming off a 4-2 loss at home to Toronto on Friday night.

Maple Leafs 4, Senators 2

OTTAWA, ONTARIO

Nazem Kadri scored twice and Curtis McElhinney made 35 saves, leading Toronto past Ottawa. It was McElhinney’s first start with the Leafs after being picked up off waivers earlier in the week from the Columbus Blue Jackets. Tyler Bozak and Connor Brown also scored for the Maple Leafs, who moved into a tie with the Senators for third in the Atlantic Division at the halfway point of the season.

Hurricanes 7, Islanders 4

RALEIGH, N.C.

Brock McGinn had a goal and three assists, linemates Jordan Staal and Elias Lindholm each had a goal and two assists and Carolina pulled away late to beat New York for their fourth straight victory. The Hurricanes overcame a 3-1 deficit with three straight goals in the second period and improved to 14-1-1 in their last 16 home games.

Panthers 4, Blue Jackets 3

SUNRISE, FLA.

Jaromir Jagr scored early in the third period, helping lead Florida past Columbus. Shawn Thornton, Vincent Trocheck and Jonathan Marchessault also scored for Florida, and Trocheck, Aaron Ekblad, Jason Demers and Jakub Kindl had assists. James Reimer made 30 saves. With the Panthers leading 3-2, Jagr swatted in a loose puck behind Joonas Korpisalo for his eighth goal of the season 1:27 into the third.

Ducks 3, Coyotes 0

GLENDALE, ARIZ.

Hampus Lindholm, Nick Ritchie and Ryan Kesler scored, and Jonathan Bernier earned his first shutout of the season in Anaheim’s victory over Arizona. Lindholm’s second goal of the season came 5:49 into the opening period and Richie got his 10th just 35 seconds into the third. Kesler’s 18th goal came into an empty net with 21 seconds left.

Wild 5, Stars 4

DALLAS

Jason Zucker scored the winner with 6:45 to play as Minnesota beat Dallas after blowing a four-goal lead. Zucker skated into the paint as Dallas goalie Kari Lehtonen blocked a shot. The puck bounced off Zucker’s chest and into the goal just before the net came off its moorings. A replay review confirmed the goal. Three Minnesota players scored in the first 4:01, and the Wild led 4-0 before the period ended.
