Vokoun saves 31 for second straight NHL shutout
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 06 - 11 - 2009

Tomas Vokoun made 31 saves for his second straight shutout as the Florida Panthers extended the Carolina Hurricanes' winless streak to 10 games with a 3-0 victory in the NHL Wednesday.
Vokoun beat St. Louis 4-0 Saturday. Steven Reinprecht opened the scoring early in the third period, Cory Stillman added a power-play goal and an assist, and defenseman Bryan Allen scored an empty-net goal with 2:01 left.
Sharks 3, Blue Jackets 2, SO: At Columbus, Ohio, San Jose defenseman Dan Boyle scored the lone goal in a shootout, and Evgeni Nabokov stopped all three Columbus shooters to give the Sharks their sixth straight win and eighth in their last nine games.
Nabokov made 26 saves in regulation and overtime, then stopped attempts by Nikita Filatov, Anton Stralman and Rick Nash in the tiebreaker.
Sabres 3, Islanders 0: At Buffalo, New York, Ryan Miller made 24 saves for his second shutout of the season and 14th overall, and Thomas Vanek had a goal and assist to help Buffalo end New York's four-game winning streak.
Derek Roy and Paul Gaustad also scored to help the Sabres rebound from a 5-0 loss to New York on Saturday.
Devils 3, Capitals 2: At Newark, New Jersey, Niclas Bergfors scored power-play goals 3:13 apart in the third period as New Jersey beat Alex Ovechkin-less Washington.
Brian Rolston also scored, and Martin Brodeur made 26 saves for New Jersey. Tyler Sloan and Tomas Fleischmann scored for Washington. Ovechkin, the NHL MVP for the past two seasons, sustained an upper-body strain on Sunday against Columbus.
Flames 3, Stars 2, OT: At Dallas, Jarome Iginla scored on a power play at 1:25 of overtime to give Calgary a comeback victory over Dallas.
Daymond Langkow tied it for the Flames with 49 seconds left in regulation and goalie Curtis McElhinney on the bench for an extra attacker.
Dallas drew a delay of game penalty at 1:09 of overtime, and the Flames needed only 16 seconds to capitalize when Iginla – who also scored in the second period – fired home.
McElhinney, the backup to Miikka Kiprusoff, stopped Brenden Morrow on a second-period penalty shot and finished with 38 saves in his second start of the season.
Avalanche 4, Coyotes 1: At Denver, Milan Hejduk had two goals and an assist, and Peter Budaj stopped 28 shots for Colorado in his first start of the season.
