 The Bruins, who also got two goals from Patrice Bergeron, blew a 4-1
lead before getting the game-winner on Stempniak's 17th score of the
season.
The victory was the 388th for Claude Julien behind the Boston bench,
making him the winningest coach in the Bruins' 92-year history.
Julien, who now owns a 388-216-85 record, passed Art Ross for the
top spot.
Tuukka Rask made 47 saves to help the Bruins improve to 5-1-1 in
their past seven games. Florida's Roberto Luongo (11 saves) allowed
four first-period goals and was then lifted in favor of Al Montoya,
who was perfect for 44 minutes until he was beaten by Stempniak.
Montoya made 15 saves.
Flyers 4, Lightning 2
PHILADELPHIA -- Shayne Gostisbehere made more franchise history
Monday, and Philadelphia snapped Tampa Bay's nine-game winning

Wilson's record for most goals in a season by a Philadelphia rookie
defenseman set in 1978-79, when Wilson recorded 13. He helped the
Flyers finish their pivotal six-game homestand 5-1-0.
Tampa Bay backup goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy made 37 saves, while
Flyers goaltender Steve Mason needed to make just 16 saves for the
win.

Capitals 2, Ducks 1 (SO)
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- T.J. Oshie and Nicklas Backstrom scored in a
shootout to give Washington a victory over Anaheim in front of a
sellout crowd of 17,174 at the Honda Center.
Washington goalie Braden Holtby grabbed two shots during the shutout
and finished with 27 saves. Andre Burakovsky scored in regulation
for the Capitals, who earned their third victory in four games.
Corey Perry scored Anaheim's only goal during the shootout, Ryan
Getzlaf scored in regulation and John Gibson stopped 31 shots. But

Kings 5, Canucks 1
LOS ANGELES -- Two third-period goals by Jeff Carter and another one
by Vinny Lecavalier allowed Los Angeles to break open a close
contest and cruise to a victory over Vancouver at Staples Center.
Carter scored at 11:39 of the third for a 3-1 advantage before
Lecavalier added his sixth this season on a breakaway 39 seconds
later. Carter scored again -- his 17th goal of the season -- with
3:57 left in the contest on an empty-netter for the 300th of his
career.
The third-quarter barrage boosted the Kings back in the win column
after Saturday's disappointing 3-2 setback to the rival Anaheim
Ducks. They closed within a point of the Pacific Division-leading
Ducks, who had their 11-game winning streak snapped by the
Washington Capitals.
