NHL roundup: Blackhawks sink Rangers, snap out of cold spell

Taylor Hall scored the tiebreaking goal with 13:44 remaining and added an assist as the visiting Chicago Blackhawks stopped a season-worst five-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory over the struggling New York Rangers on Monday night.

Outscored 21-10 during their skid, the Blackhawks gave interim coach Anders Sorensen his first win in two games since he replaced Luke Richardson on Thursday. Chicago also stopped a six-game road losing streak (0-5-1) and earned its fourth win in 15 games (4-10-1).

Tyler Bertuzzi also scored for the Blackhawks, who won for just the second time in 19 games this season when scoring two goals or fewer.

Chicago goaltender Arvid Soderblom made 29 saves a day after Petr Mrazek went on injured reserve with a groin ailment. Soderblom highlighted his ninth career victory (and second this season) with a left skate save on Artemi Panarin during a New York power play in the second.

Red Wings 6, Sabres 5 (SO)

Lucas Raymond had a goal and an assist and also scored during a shootout as visiting Detroit snapped a five-game losing streak by topping slumping Buffalo.

Andrew Copp had two goals and Moritz Seider supplied a goal and an assist. Detroit goalie Sebastian Cossa, the 15th overall pick of the 2021 draft, recorded the win in relief while making his NHL debut.

The Red Wings entered the contest on an 0-3-2 skid. Jason Zucker had two goals and an assist for Buffalo, which has lost seven straight games (0-4-3).

Canadiens 3, Ducks 2 (SO)

Patrik Laine recorded a goal and an assist in regulation before host Montreal won in a shootout against Anaheim.

Kirby Dach also scored and Sam Montembeault made 27 saves, including four in overtime, for the Canadiens, who improved to 3-1-0 on their five-game homestand.

Troy Terry scored both goals and Lukas Dostal made 19 saves for the Ducks, who lost for the sixth time in their past eight games (2-4-2). Laine and Cole Caufield scored in the shootout for Montreal, while Terry and Mason McTavish both failed to find the back of the net for Anaheim.
