Mike Hoffman’s power-play goal tied it with 6:44 remaining.“We had so many chances that wouldn’t go in,” Huberdeau said. “Just at the end, it worked out for us, and it’s a big two points. Me and [center Aleksander Barkov] were talking to each other and we were like Vegas Golden Knights T-Shirts Womens , ‘There’s no way nothing is going to happen. We had so many chances.’ Finally, it happened at the end. We just stuck with it, and it worked out for us.”Barkov, also Florida’s captain, set up Huberdeau for the goal.The Red Wings (15-19-6), who begin a five-game homestand, lost 5-1 on the road to the Dallas Stars on Saturday for their fourth-consecutive loss (0-3-1) and eighth in their last 10 games (2-6-2).“It’s snowballing on us right now.

The Red Wings have given up five goals in each of their last three games.“We need to quit giving up so many goals,” coach Jeff Blashill said. “I talked to our team the other day about not letting a goal bother us, but when you’re giving up five or six goals, you’re not going to win.”Detroit was totally outclassed on Saturday night.“We deserved to lose, 100 percent,” Blashill said. “They outplayed us, without question. They were faster than us all over the ice and I don’t think they are faster than us, so that’s the way we played. We have to be better than that.”The only positive was that center Dylan Larkin extended his point streak to 13 games (7-10-17) with a power-play goal in the third period. It is the longest current run in the NHL.It was Larkin’s 17th goal Vegas Golden Knights Hats Womens , which surpasses his total from last season.“He’s been consistent all year,” Nielsen said. “He competes every night, shows up and works as hard as he can. You can see he’s determined. It’s fun to watch him grow as a player.” ST. LOUIS (AP) — Robert Bortuzzo got mad for the St. Louis Blues, and teammate Oskar Sundqvist got even with the Washington Capitals.Alex Ovechkin scored his 30th goal of the season but the Blues came back to beat the Capitals 5-2 on Thursday night after Sundqvist knocked in the go-ahead goal.Ovechkin’s first-period score snapped a six-game drought and tied him with Mike Gartner as the only players in NHL history to begin their careers with 14 straight 30-goal seasons. Gartner scored 30 or more in his first 15 seasons for Washington, the Minnesota North Stars, the New York Rangers and Toronto from 1979-94.“He’s just an elite, elite scorer that we’re so fortunate to have on our team and, jeez Custom Vegas Golden Knights Jerseys , the league is even fortunate just to have this type of a player that’s a generational talent,” Capitals coach Todd Reirden said. “To score 30 again this year is quite an accomplishment after going through a long season last year, and he continues to get a year older but he still does the phenomenal things.”Ovechkin wasn’t in a reflective mood following the loss.“It’s nice to be in that company (with Gartner) but still a long way to go (in my career),” he said.Sundqvist’s goal stood as the game-winner. Sundqvist missed the first eight games of the season with head and shoulder issues after a hit from Washington’s Tom Wilson in a preseason game on Sept. 30.Wilson ended up being suspended 14 games. Bortuzzo and Wilson got into a fight early in the second period.“I don’t know whether he expected it or not,” Bortuzzo said. “I think he would have done the same thing on his side and I’m sure a lot of guys would have stepped up in this locker room. I just happened to be the guy and it is what it is.”Alex Pietrangelo had a goal and an assist for the Blues, who stopped a two-game skid. Colton Parayko, Robert Thomas and Tyler Bozak also scored, and Jake Allen made 23 saves.Brett Connolly scored for the Capitals www.officialducks.com , who had won five road games in a row. Braden Holtby had 37 saves but lost to St. Louis for the first time in his career (7-1-0).Parayko’s power-play goal tied it at 2 with 7:37 left in the second period. That ended an 0-for-21 slump with the man advantage on home ice for the Blues spanning seven games.“We just outworked them, especially in the offensive zone,” Pietrangelo said. “The penalty kill was good. The power play was good in the second period there. I think we simplified and started getting shots and all of sudden momentum started to change.”Sundqvist gave St. Louis a 3-2 lead with a diving sweep of a rebound off Pietrangelo’s shot from the point with 3:27 remaining in the second.“He got the shot through and I saw the puck and the diving during the shot was more to be sure I would be first to the puck,” Sundqvist said.Pietrangelo and Bozak added insurance goals in the third.Thomas deflected Bortuzzo’s slap shot past Holtby at the four-minute mark of the first to give the Blues a 1-0 lead.After Ovechkin tied it, Connolly gave the Capitals a 2-1 advantage three minutes into the second, poking a rebound of his own shot past Allen.NOTES: Blues RW Vladimir Tarasenko (illness) did not play. … Capitals C Evgeny Kuznetsov is one point shy of 300 for his career. … The Blues acquired G Jared Coreau from the Anaheim Ducks for future considerations.
