and an assist, and Drake Batherson also scored to extend his

25 shots for the Senators, who have lost three in a row after a
3-0-1 stretch.

scored five unanswered goals to defeat visiting Philadelphia.

assists for the Capitals, who are 5-1-1 in their past seven
games. Alex Ovechkin, Sonny Milano, John Carlson and Anthony
Mantha scored goals, and Charlie Lindgren made 21 saves.
Owen Tippett had a goal and an assist, Bobby Brink also scored

five of seven (2-4-1). Samuel Ersson made 16 saves.
Ducks 4, Devils 3
Lukas Dostal sparkled in net with 52 saves and Frank Vatrano
scored twice as host Anaheim edged New Jersey.
Dostal capped his performance by staring down Devils star Jack
Hughes on a penalty shot with 2.1 seconds remaining in
regulation. Max Jones collected one goal and one assist and Adam
Henrique added a goal for the Ducks, who won for the second
consecutive night.
Hughes and Tyler Toffoli each posted one goal and one assist and
Timo Meier also scored for the Devils, who have dropped two of
their past three games. Starting goalie Nico Daws was pulled
after surrendering four goals on 14 shots through the first two
periods. Akira Schmid stopped nine shots in relief.
