Avs spoil Jagr’s record-setting night

NEW YORK — Calvin Pickard made 38 saves, Gabriel Landeskog had a goal and an assist, and the Colorado Avalanche beat the Florida Panthers 3-2 Thursday night to spoil Jaromir Jagr’s record-setting night. Jagr had an assist for his 1,850th career point, tying him with Gordie Howe for third all-time. He is 37 points behind Mark Messier for second. Penguins 4, Rangers 1 Led by Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, the Pittsburgh Penguins took advantage of an uncharacteristic meltdown by Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist to score three times in less than two minutes late in the second period and beat New York 4-1 Thursday night. Patric Hornqvist added his fifth goal in three games as the Penguins bounced back from a tough 3-2 loss Tuesday at the NHL-leading Washington Capitals to rally and beat the Rangers — the Eastern Conference rival that torments them the most. Counting the playoffs, the Penguins had dropped 11 of their previous 13 to the Rangers. Bruins 4, Blackhawks 2 Brad Marchand scored his 33rd goal of the season, and the Boston Bruins won consecutive games at home for the first time in nearly three months, beating the Chicago Blackhawks 4-2 Thursday night at TD Garden. Boston’s Claude Julien tied Art Ross for the franchise record in coaching wins with his 387th victory. Sabres 6, Flames 3 Left-winger Marcus Foligno had a goal and two assists to lead the Buffalo Sabres to a 6-3 victory over the Calgary Flames Thursday. Center Jack Eichel, left winger Johan Larsson, left-winger Evander Kane, defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen and left-winger Nicolas Deslauriers also scored for the Sabres (26-31-8). Goalie Robin Lehner made 26 saves. Oilers 4, Flyers 0 The Edmonton Oilers stayed hot while cooling off the Philadelphia Flyers in convincing fashion Thursday with a 4-0 win at Wells Fargo Center. Despite sitting in last place of the Western Conference and owning the NHL’s fewest road wins, the Oilers (25-34-7) outplayed the Flyers for a third straight victory and just their ninth away from home. Wild 2, Maple Leafs 1 Mikael Granlund’s third-period power-play marker pushed the Minnesota Wild to a 2-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs at Air Canada Centre. Granland one-timed a cross-ice feed from Thomas Vanek, glove-side on Garret Sparks, at 11:35 of the third period for his eighth goal of the season. Mikko Koivu had the other Minnesota goal. Lightning 4, Senators 1 Ben Bishop made 33 saves to lead the Tampa Bay Lightning to its eighth consecutive victory, a 4-1 decision over the Ottawa Senators at Canadian Tire Centre. The victory moved Tampa Bay (38-22-4) into a tie with the Florida Panthers for first place in the Atlantic Division. Bishop, who played 23 games for the Senators between 2011-2013, improved his record to 9-0-3 against his former team. In other games it was: Islanders 4, Jets 3 (OT); Devils 5, Predators 4 (OT); Ducks 5, Coyotes 1; Sharks 3, Canucks 2; Kings 3, Canadiens 2. — Reuters
