BOSTON (AP) — Devon Levi made 30 saves and the Buffalo Sabres beat the Boston Bruins 3-1 on Thursday night to snap a four-game losing streak.
JJ Peterka, Tage Thompson and Victor Olofsson scored for Buffalo, which beat the Atlantic Division-leading Bruins for the first time in nearly a calendar year. The Bruins had won three straight against Buffalo.
Brad Marchand scored for Boston, which had its four-game winning streak halted. Marchand also recorded the 1,000th penalty of his career. Linus Ullmark finished with 33 saves, and the Bruins were outshot 35-29.
SHARKS 6, RED WINGS 5, OT
DETROIT (AP) — Mikael Granlund scored 37 seconds into overtime and San Jose spoiled Patrick Kane’s Detroit debut, overcoming a four-goal deficit to beat the Red Wings.
Nico Sturm and Tomas Hertl each scored twice for San Jose. Hertl, who has five goals in the last two games, and Fabian Zetterlund had the Sharks’ first two short-handed goals of the season. Hertl tied it with 1:29 left on a rebound after San Jose pulled its goaltender for an extra skater.
The 35-year-old Kane, a nine-time All-Star who signed a one-year contract with Detroit on Nov. 28, didn’t record a point. He hit the post early in the third period. Kane had his right hip surgically repaired six months ago.
Michael Rasmussen scored two goals in a 13-second span for Detroit. Klim Kostin, Lucas Raymond and Dylan Larkin also scored.
