Reeling and banged up, the Minnesota Wild were eager to get back on home ice Antworten

ST. PAUL Washington Capitals T-Shirts Authentic , Minn. (AP) — Reeling and banged up, the Minnesota Wild were eager to get back on home ice. They took out their recent frustrations on the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night.Matt Dumba continued his high-scoring start with two goals, Devan Dubnyk made 29 saves and the Wild rebounded from a disappointing road trip in a 7-1 victory.“I think that’s all the boys had on their mind, was kind of redeeming ourselves,” Dumba said.The Wild scored four times in the second period to recover from a lousy swing through Western Canada, when Minnesota dropped two of three and lost captain Mikko Koivu to injury.Nino Niederreiter, Charlie Coyle, Eric Staal, Jared Spurgeon and Zach Parise also scored for Minnesota (16-12-2) Washington Capitals Hoodies Authentic , which went 4 for 4 on the power play.Jeff Petry scored for Montreal (15-11-5), which ended a three-game winning streak.“Give them all the credit,” Montreal’s Brendan Gallagher said. “They outplayed us in every facet. But, did they see our best effort? No. It’s not the way that we need to play”After taking a 1-0 lead on Niederreiter’s first-period goal, the Wild exploded in the second period. Dumba started the outburst when he cashed in on the first penalty of the game. He ripped a shot off a cross-ice feed from Mikael Granlund for a 2-0 lead on the power play.“Everyone came to play tonight,” Dumba said. “We just need more of that. When everyone shows up, we’re a really good team.”Coyle made it 3-0 with a short-handed goal at 12:33. He ripped a back-handed shot past Antti Niemi.Staal followed up his own rebound at 14:58 to make it 4-0, and with 1.7 seconds left in the period, Spurgeon added a second power-play goal with a one-timer.The Wild haven’t had a lot of stress-free moments recently. They came into Tuesday’s game having lost five of six and eight of 12. The four-goal second period alleviated any nerves.“A win where the coach isn’t going nuts behind the bench Washington Capitals Hats Authentic , a really good game from the goalie and some guys that hadn’t been able to score recently got a chance to get some numbers,” Wild coach Bruce Boudreau said. “That’s always a good thing.”Dumba added another power-play goal early in the third. He leads NHL defensemen with 12 goals and six power-play goals.After Petry’s goal briefly stopped the wave of Minnesota pressure, the lead quickly returned to six when, on another power play, Spurgeon found Parise with a blueline-to-blueline pass and Parise buried his 14th goal of the season.“For us as a group, it was a really good response,” Parise said.Niemi made 17 saves before giving way to Carey Price. Montreal started its three-game road trip with wins over Ottawa and Chicago. The Canadiens had won four of their previous five.“We talked about it all day and we had an opportunity to go back home with a perfect record on this road trip and we needed to be ready to play, but that’s exactly what happened,” Canadiens coach Claude Julien said. “We weren’t ready to play Custom Washington Capitals Jerseys , we weren’t ready to do the things that we needed to do to win and when you don’t do that you get exposed like you did (tonight).”NOTES: Minnesota was playing its second game without Koivu, who was injured during Thursday’s 2-0 loss in Calgary. The Wild also were in danger of losing their third consecutive home game. The last time they lost three or more games in St. Paul was March 23-28, 2017. … Staal has 44 points in 47 games against Montreal.UP NEXTCanadiens: Host Carolina on Thursday night.Wild: Host Florida on Thursday night. NEW YORK — Nathan MacKinnon made history by scoring again Saturday against the Calgary Flames. A day later, nobody on the Colorado Avalanche was looking at his latest goal when they viewed the film in practice.Instead, the Avalanche spent their final practice before a four-game road trip trying to figure out what went wrong defensively in a 3-2 overtime loss, a game where they held a two-goal lead and were outshot 31-9 after the opening period.MacKinnon and the Avalanche hope to correct some of those defensive issues Tuesday night when they face the New York Rangers in the opener of a four-game road trip.Article continues below ...MacKinnon scored his sixth goal in his fifth game 11 seconds and the Avalanche held a 2-0 lead 2:40 into the game and they did little the rest of the way and settled for a point before allowing Johnny Gaudreau to score the game-winner.“We went out and worked on D-zone coverage today and getting quick to contact and making sure we got support around the puck,” Colorado coach Jared Bednar said. “I thought our intensity level was really good.”The Avalanche are off to a 3-1-1 start heading into a trip that will take them through New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia in the next seven days.MacKinnon has six goals during his season-opening five-game goal scoring streak and it took him 19 games to score his sixth goal. He tied the franchise record set by Mats Sundin www.officialhockeyjetsshop.com , who scored a goal in each of his first five games for the 1992-93 Quebec Nordiques.“I think what happened in the last two periods, we stopped playing offensive hockey,” Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog said. “We stopped playing aggressive hockey, which is the way we got to play.”The Rangers are off to their second straight 1-4 start after taking a 2-1 home loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday.Mika Zibanejad scored the lone goal for the Rangers, who matched a season-low 24 shots on goal. The Rangers held their own against Connor McDavid’s line, but gave up the game-winner to McDavid during a power play 6:23 into the third.The Rangers fell to 1-4 after rallying late to get a 3-2 overtime win over the San Jose Sharks on Thursday. They allowed 43 shots, including many on odd-man rushes.New York allowed fewer odd-man rushes Saturday, but first-year coach David Quinn thought it came at the expense of aggressiveness on offense.“I thought it was better,” Quinn said. “Obviously Winnipeg Jets T-Shirts Authentic , we weren’t giving up the odd-man rushes that we’ve been giving up in the first three or four games. I thought we were more responsible in that — we were smart and made good decisions in that regard — but I thought in turn, we lost a little bit of our aggressive puck pursuit in the offensive zone. I think we need to do a better job of finding that balance of being aggressive and pressuring the puck without making bad decisions.”The Rangers took three penalties in the third period and are hoping to correct that area, regardless of who is in the lineup. Defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk returned from being a healthy scratch and Quinn has made other moves through the lineup so far, such as moving Pavel Buchnevich to left wing and getting rookie Brett Howden more ice time.“It’s unfortunate,” Zibanejad said. “I thought we did some good things out there. We came out really well in the first 10 minutes and kind of slowed down a little bit after that. (We were) maybe a little bit too passive. I thought we had plenty of chances to put this one away. We just have to work on that.”Semyon Varlamov is expected to start for the Avalanche. He is 3-0-1 with a 1.75 goals-against average so far and last season turned in a 37-save performance in a 4-2 win at Madison Square Garden.Henrik Lundqvist, who has a 2.03 goals-against average, is expected to start for the Rangers.Last season, Colorado swept the season series for the first time since the 2010-11 season. MacKinnon had a goal and two assists in Colorado’s two wins over the Rangers.
