Rangers' Gaborik, Drury Injured In Loss To Leafs
The Rangers will be without forwards Marian Gaborik and Chris Drury for several weeks after both were injured in the second period of New York?s 4-3, home-opening loss to the Maple Leafs on Friday night, according to an Associated Press report.
Gaborik will be out for 2-to-3 weeks because of a separated shoulder. Drury is expected to be sidelined for six weeks after he broke his left index finger for the second time since the start of training camp.
Stars Ruin Modano's Return To Dallas
The top line of Brad Richards, Loui Eriksson and James Neal had goals, Kari Lehtonen made 25 saves and Dallas beat the Detroit Red Wings 4-1 on Thursday night in Stars career scoring leader Mike Modano?s first game in Texas as a visiting player, according to an Associated Press report.
Penguins Still Winless In New Home
Clarke MacArthur scored twice and the Toronto Maple Leafs withstood Sidney Crosby?s first goal of the season to keep the Penguins winless in their new home, beating Pittsburgh 4-3 on Wednesday night, according to an Associated Press report.
Thomas Records Shutout As Bruins Get Win
The Bruins got their first victory of the season on Sunday against the Coyotes as goalie Tim Thomas recorded a shutout.
Boston won 3-0 as newcomer Nathan Horton scored in the second period and added an assist.
Thomas stopped 29 shots as the Bruins peppered Phoenix's Ilya Bryzgalov with 37 shots.
Stepan Scores Three Times In Rangers Debut
Rangers rookie Derek Stepan had difficulty determining which was more impressive: joining elite company in scoring three goals in his NHL debut or doing it against Ryan Miller.
Either way, Stepan didn't complain after he became the fourth NHL player to open his career with a hat trick. That carried the Rangers to a 6-3 season-opening win and spoiled the Sabres' home opener on Saturday night.
Giguere Leads Leafs To Opening Night Win
It was the kind of win that probably would have eluded the Maple Leafs last season.
Clinging to a one-goal lead in the final minute, Jean-Sebastien Giguere made two saves that coach Ron Wilson figured he wouldn?t have gotten a year ago.
Giguere extended his left pad as Montreal captain Brian Gionta got two whacks at the puck just before the buzzer sounded on Toronto?s 3-2 win over the Canadiens on Thursday night, as reported by the Associated Press.
