LOS ANGELES — Andrew Shaw scored a power-play goal on his own rebound with 4:19 to play to break a tie and lead the Chicago Blackhawks to a 3-2 victory Friday over the St. Louis Blues to even their opening-round playoff series at 1-1.
The goal came with seven seconds left in a penalty to Vladimir Tarasenko, who was called for slashing Shaw. It was allowed to stand after a video review.
Chicago’s Artemi Panarin added an empty-net goal with 1:26 to play. St. Louis’ Kevin Shattenkirk scored with two seconds left.
The Blues appeared to have taken a 2-1 lead with 7:46 left in regulation on the second goal of the game from Tarasenko, but the Blackhawks challenged the goal and after a video review it was ruled that Jori Lehtera had been offside on the play.
The series moves to Chicago for the next two contests, with Game 3 set for Sunday afternoon.
Lightning 5, Red Wings 2: Tyler Johnson scored a pair of third-period goals, helping the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Detroit Red Wings 5-2 in Game 2 of their first-round playoff series.
Ben Bishop had 30 saves for the defending Eastern Conference champions, who took the first two games at home despite playing without injured leading goal scorer Steven Stamkos and defenseman Anton Stralman.
A bloody brawl involving several players capped this one, with 14 penalties called — including a game misconduct on Justin Abdelkader — with 54 seconds left.
Game 3 is Sunday in Detroit, where the Red Wings won both regular-season meetings between the teams.
Panthers 3, Islanders 1: Roberto Luongo made 41 saves for his first playoff win in five years, and the Florida Panthers evened their Eastern Conference quarterfinal series by beating the New York Islanders.
Reilly Smith and Nick Bjugstad each had a goal and an assist for Florida, which salvaged a split in the series-opening back-to-back. Dmitry Kulikov added an empty-netter with 9.3 seconds left to clinch the win. Game 3 is in Brooklyn Sunday.
John Tavares scored with 3:33 left for New York, and Thomas Greiss stopped 28 shots for the Islanders.
Predators 3, Ducks 2: Filip Forsberg scored with 9 minutes, 35 seconds to play to give the Nashville Predators a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks in the first game of the Stanley Cup Western Conference quarterfinals Friday night in front of a standing-room-only crowd of 17,236 at the Honda Center.
James Neal and Craig Wilson also scored while goalie Pekka Rinne stopped 27 shots for the Predators. Ryan Getzlaf and Ryan Kesler scored the Ducks’ goals, and goalie John Gibson made 30 saves.
Game 2 will take place Sunday night at the Honda Center.
