Martin Necas had a goal and two assists one day after signing an eight-year, $92 million extension, leading the Colorado Avalanche to a 4-2 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday in Las Vegas.
Necas opened the scoring on the first shot 41 seconds into the game.
Cale Makar added a goal and an assist while Brock Nelson and Brent Burns also scored goals for the Avalanche, who have won two in a row. Scott Wedgewood made 21 saves en route to his league-leading seventh victory of the season.
Tomas Hertl and Mitch Marner each had a goal and an assist for the Golden Knights, who took just their second regulation loss of the season and first at home. Carl Lindbom, making his second career NHL start, finished with 22 saves.
Islanders 3, Capitals 1
Bo Horvat scored the go-ahead goal 4:29 into the third period and Ilya Sorokin made 22 saves, lifting visiting New York to a victory over Washington.
Jean-Gabriel Pageau scored a short-handed goal late in the second period for the Islanders, and Mathew Barzal found an empty net with 1:16 remaining in the third. Barzal was a healthy scratch for disciplinary reasons on Thursday after he was late to the rink for the morning skate. The Islanders snapped their second three-game losing streak of the season.
Tom Wilson scored a goal early in the second period and Logan Thompson turned aside 20 shots for the Capitals, who have mustered just two goals total while dropping three in a row.
Ducks 5, Red Wings 2
Troy Terry scored twice and added an assist while Leo Carlsson scored once in a career-best-tying four-point game, pacing host Anaheim to a victory over Detroit.
Mason McTavish and Chris Kreider added singles for the Ducks, who have won four of five games. Anaheim goaltender Lukas Dostal made 28 saves.
Lucas Raymond and Alex DeBrincat both netted one goal and one assist for the Red Wings, who had a three-game winning streak snapped. Goalie John Gibson stopped 27 shots in his return to Anaheim, where he spent the first dozen seasons of his career.
