Goaltender Tristan Jarry scored and finished the game with 39 saves on Thursday as the Pittsburgh Penguins scored four unanswered goals to defeat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2.
With the Penguins clinging to a one-goal lead late in the game, Jarry collected a discarded puck to his left and immediately lofted a perfect lob into the empty net at the other end of the ice with 68 seconds on the dial in third.
This is the first goal scored in the NHL by a goalie since that of Linus Ullmark of the Boston Bruins once morest the Vancouver Canucks on February 25, 2023.
Jarry already scored a goal in the American League in 2018 with the Wilkes-Barre / Scranton Penguins.
The Lightning took a 2-0 lead in the first period, which Tampa Bay dominated 17-5 in shots on goal. The Penguins then dominated the second period (19 shots to 7) to get back into a tie. Jeff Carter then broke the tie in the third by finally scoring his first goal of the season.
Carter had only one assist in his first 15 games of the season and had not scored in his last 18 games.
Kucherov was complicit in the Lightning’s two goals in the first: the 10th from Steven Stamkos and the fifth from Tanner Jeannot. Kucherov has at least one point in each of his last eight games. He has 16 points during this stretch and 28 in his last 13 games. He leads the NHL in scoring with 39 points in 23 games.
Sidney Crosby and Drew O’Connor responded in the second for the Penguins and Carter gave them their first lead of the game at 2:49 of the third.
Crosby’s goal was his 14th of the season. He has 564 since the start of his career, which places him tied with Mats Sundin and Joe Nieuwendyk for 24th in NHL history.
The Penguins have collected five points in the standings out of a possible six in their last three games (2-0-1) while the Lightning have lost their last three meetings.
Luke Hughes gets revenge the best way
Jack Hughes had three points, his brother Luke scored 28 seconds into the overtime period following taking a hard hit in the first period and the New Jersey Devils beat the Philadelphia Flyers 4-3.
Nico Hischier recovered the puck in the Devils zone and passed it to Jack Hughes, who fed Luke Hughes to his right on a two-on-one.
Luke Hughes had suffered a very strong hit from Garnet Hathaway with 3:45 to play in the first while trying to recover a punt that perhaps should have been refused. Hathaway received a major penalty for bandying and was ejected from the game. Hughes went to the locker room, but was back with his teammates for the second period.
Jack Hughes finished the game with a goal and two assists, Tyler Toffoli added a goal and an assist and Nico Hischier had two goals for the Devils, who signed a third victory in a row.
Alexander Holtz opened the scoring with his seventh goal of the season 3:10 into the game for the Devils. Jack Hughes doubled his team’s lead with his eighth goal with 4:48 left in the first.
Morgan Frost reduced the gap for the Flyers by scoring the only goal of the second period.
Toffoli gave the Devils a two-goal lead at the start of the third with his 12th goal of the season.
The Flyers did not give up, however, as Sean Walker once more brought the lead back to one goal with five minutes to play. Tyson Foerster then forced overtime by hitting the target with 51 seconds on the clock while the Flyers took advantage of a numerical advantage and had removed their goaltender in favor of a sixth skater.
The Flyers had the upper hand 47-35 in shots on goal. They notably shot 25 shots on net in the second period alone. Akira Schmid made 44 saves in front of the Devils cage in the victory.
Devils forward Samuel Laberge played his first NHL game. The Quebecer finished the game with four minutes of ice time.
He is the first player to have played in the North American Hockey League (NAHL) to subsequently play his first game in the NHL.
A member of the Utica Comets for the last three seasons, the former Rimouski Océanic, who was captain of the team during the 2016-17 season, has never been drafted in the NHL.
The forward began his professional career in the Texas Stars organization, where he played two seasons before returning to Quebec to play a campaign with the Sorel-Tracy Éperviers in 2019-20, in the North American League hockey.
Laberge returned to the United States in 2021-22, where he starred with the Allen Americans in the East Coast League. He collected 37 points, including 15 goals, in 50 games before catching the eye of the Devils organization.
The Bruins take advantage of a visit from the Sharks to revive themselves
Pavel Zacha had a goal and an assist and the Boston Bruins ended a three-game losing streak by defeating the San Jose Sharks 3-0.
Danton Heinen and Jake DeBrusk also scored. Jeremy Swayman, who was removed from the game Monday in a 5-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, stopped all 28 pucks aimed at him to record his second shutout of the season.
David Pastrnak had two assists and the Bruins defeated the Sharks, who are last in the NHL standings, for the 13th straight time.
Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 32 pucks for the Sharks, who had won their last two outings.
After both teams missed power play opportunities in the first period, Heinen opened the scoring 1:38 into the second period. DeBrusk then doubled his team’s lead by thwarting Blackwood with a few feints before the end of the middle period.
The Sharks took advantage of a five-on-three sequence before the second intermission without managing to close the gap. Zacha didn’t miss his chance on a power play in the third.
The Sharks are 0-10-0 on the road this season.
Compher and Fabbri join forces once morest the Hawks
JT Compher and Robby Fabbri both scored twice to help the Detroit Red Wings beat the Chicago Blackhawks 5-1.
The Blackhawks lost for the seventh time in nine games. Connor Bedard set up Lukas Reichel’s tying goal early in the first period. Bedard thus brought his total points to 18 in 21 games.
Alex Lyon stopped 34 shots for the Red Wings, who have won four of their last five games. Petr Mrazek made 24 saves.
Compher found the back of the net shorthanded 2:29 into the first period. Reichel tied the game with his second goal of the season next.
The Red Wings gave themselves two goals in the second period when defender Ben Chiarot found the back of the net. Compher then scored on the power play to make it 4-1.
Fabbri completed the scoring with another power play goal, midway through the third period.
Barzal caps his evening with four points in overtime
Mathew Barzal broke the deadlock in overtime to give the New York Islanders a 5-4 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes.

Semyon Varlamov brought the victory to his record by stopping no less than 39 shots. The Isles have won four of their last six games.
