Nov 11 (Field Level Media) - Dawson Mercer scored twice against his former team, including the tiebreaking power-play goal with 8:02 remaining in the third period, and the host Winnipeg Jets recorded a 4-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday in a highly charged environment.
The Jets won their fourth straight following a nine-game skid as their fans spent time derisively chanting at Connor Hellebuyck. The ex-Jets goalie had his trade request granted Oct. 23, when he was
dealt to the Devils for a package that included Mercer and goaltender Nico Daws, who made 19 saves in getting the win.
Mercer scored his second and third goals since changing teams. Winnipeg teammate Kyle Connor scored a power-play goal in the first period and added an empty-net goal with 58 seconds left. Cole Perfetti contributed two assists for the Jets.
Jake Allen made 21 saves as New Jersey had its five-game winning streak stopped. Jesper Bratt and Cody Glass scored in a span of 44 seconds for the Devils to tie the game during the opening two minutes of the second period.
Wild 2, Canadiens 1 (OT)
Kirill Kaprizov scored a power-play goal 18 seconds into overtime to fuel visiting Minnesota to a victory on the night Montreal honored goaltending legend Carey Price.
The goal was Kaprizov's league-leading 17th of the season as he joined defenseman Quinn Hughes in extending his point streak to nine games. Bobby Brink scored 2:53 into the third period, and Jesper Wallstedt made 27 saves for the Wild, who extended their point streak to nine (7-0-2) and matched their franchise-record win total through 20 games of a season with 13.
Price received nearly a four-minute standing ovation from the Bell Centre crowd before the game. He was then added to the team's Ring of Honor, one day after being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Rookie Jacob Fowler made 22 saves and captain Nick Suzuki scored for the Canadiens, who extended their point streak to (8-0-3).
Capitals 3, Senators 2 (OT)
Cole Hutson scored 1:14 into overtime to lift Washington to a victory at Ottawa. Alex Ovechkin assisted on the game-winner, pulling into a tie with Nicklas Backstrom (762) for the franchise lead in assists.
