VANCOUVER Womens Evander Kane Jersey , British Columbia (AP) — Elias Pettersson was hard on himself after his first game back from a knee injury. His coach was more forgiving.Pettersson had a goal and an assist, and the Vancouver Canucks beat the Detroit Red Wings 3-2 on Sunday.“I felt I lost the puck a few times, made some bad decisions, some turnovers. But I’ve just got to play it simple,” Pettersson said.The 20-year-old rookie, who ran his point total this season to 44, missed five games after suffering an MCL sprain against Montreal on Jan. 3.“I thought he was pretty good for being out for a bit,” Vancouver coach Travis Green said.“Whenever you miss (games with) an injury, and especially an injury that’s with your lower body, your leg, your knee, it takes a couple games.”Antoine Roussel scored the go-ahead goal in the third period, and Bo Horvat also scored for Vancouver.Pettersson’s goal gave Vancouver the early lead, but the team had to rally from a 2-1 deficit after an ugly second period.“We were lucky they didn’t score more in the second,” Green said Authentic Joe Pavelski Jersey , adding that he wasn’t sure whether to berate his team during the second intermission or just feel sorry for them.“I just said, ‘Hey, we’ve got a chance to win. If you haven’t been good tonight, look in the mirror.’ And give them credit — they did. They found their game. And when a team responds, you’re proud of them.”Roussel broke a 2-2 tie with 6:47 remaining in the game, tipping in a shot fired by Jake Virtanen. The play came less than three minutes after Bernier stopped Roussel on a breakaway.Horvat evened the game 7:27 into the third period, sweeping in a low wrist shot in for his 18th goal of the season.The tally broke a scoring drought for Horvat, who had 38 shots without a goal in his previous 11 games.“It definitely put a smile on my face to score a big goal like that,” he said. “It’s funny how it works. You have all these grade-A chances that all should have gone in and that one goes in, so I’m definitely happy to get one for sure.”Frans Nielsen and Thomas Vanek scored for Detroit.Jacob Markstrom stopped 35 shots for the Canucks, and Wings goalie Jonathan Bernier had 28 saves.Vanek said it was frustrating for his team to give up another third-period lead.“It’s tough. We’re all pros, we want to win,” he said. “It’s no fun when you keep losing, but I think at least we are at the stage where we are playing consistently well. There’s not bonus points for that unfortunately, but as a group we just have to put it behind us.”The Wings dropped a 6-4 decision in Calgary on Friday.“That’s the league right now Joe Thornton Jersey ,” coach Jeff Blashill said. “It’s so tight that when you get on a roll you can really get on a roll. But that goes both ways, winning and losing, and right now we’re on a roll the wrong way. We just keep finding ways to lose hockey games.”NOTES: Nielsen’s second-period goal marked the 450th point of his NHL career. … Brock Boeser had two assists for the Canucks. He now has five points in four games. … Detroit D Dennis Cholowski was a healthy scratch for the first time in his rookie season.

They’ll host the Carolina Hurricanes on Wednesday. NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — It didn’t take long for the Boston Bruins‘ top line of Patrice Bergeron, David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand to get back in gear.A game after Pastrnak returned from thumb surgery, Bergeron scored two goals and the line accounted for eight points in leading the Bruins to a 5-1 victory over the injury-ravaged New Jersey Devils 5-1 on Thursday night.Pastrnak also scored his first goal since missing 16 games in helping Boston open a six-point lead over Toronto in the race for second place in the Atlantic Division.“When they’re going, they pull the rest of the guys along,” Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy said. “That was a bit of the story of our team early in the year. Now we’re seeing more secondary scoring, but they are certainly our go-to guys. They are our drivers. Most teams have that in their top six and we’re not an exception. It nice to see Pass get back in the mix with them. It looks like the chemistry is back to normal for them.”Marchand added three assists and Danton Heinen and David Backes also scored for the Bruins, who are 16-3-1 in their last 20 games. Tuukka Rask made 22 saves to improve to 18-2-3 in his last 23 games.“I think it’s our chemistry and we’ve been able to build on that,” said Marchand, who has 90 points, including 31 goals. “We work together as a group and we’re consistently trying to improve. We’ve (had) some good bounces. We’ve had a lot of fun. We’ve got a really good group this year Joonas Donskoi Jersey , a really good team. I think we all benefit all around the room.”Boston, which has given up two goals while winning its last three games, and the Maple Leafs, who were idle, each have eight regular-season games left.“That’s what we have in front of ourselves right now,” Bergeron said after hitting the 30-goal mark for the fifth time. “That’s what we can work for. It’s not easy. It’s the last stretch and every point counts. We know Toronto is thinking the same way.”Drew Stafford scored for the Devils, ending a 34-game goal-scoring drought. Cory Schneider made 22 saves as New Jersey lost for the ninth time in 12 games (2-9-1).“It’s where we are as a team,” Devils captain Andy Greene said. “That’s how we have to play. That’s how we compete. We stay in games because of how hard we work and how hard we compete. It’s not because of our skill.”Boston’s top line combined to stake the Bruins to a 2-0 lead.Bergeron opened the scoring with 1:26 left in the first period with his 29th goal. Pastrnak took the puck from Marchand and made a pass across the crease to Bergeron for a shot into an open net.Pastrnak got his 32nd at 12:58 of the second period. Bergeron won a faceoff and Marchand made the pass across the crease for Pastrnak’s shot into an open net.A turnover by the Bruins allowed the Devils to score less than two minutes later. Pavel Zacha, who returned after missing 16 games with an upper-body injury, got the puck in the right circle and found Stafford for his third goal.Heinen restored the two-goal lead 29 seconds into the third period. Sean Kuraly blocked a shot by Devils defenseman Steven Santini with his glove and Heinen scored on the ensuing rush.Bergeron scored into an empty net with 1:18 to play, and Backes tallied in the final minute.NOTES: Devils D Josh Jacobs made his NHL debut. … Former Devil Marcus Johansson, who was acquired at the trade deadline, missed his eighth straight game since being hurt. …Heinen’s goal was his 10th of the season and gave Boston nine players with double figures in goals.
