Two goals from Lacroix (3) including the game winner helped Philadelphia on their way to their first win in four games; LaForge (4), Sutherland (11) and Hoekstra (8) also contributing. On the flip side of this result the Kings have just one victory in five, Gray (5), Flett (15) and R Lemieux (4) falling short.
Boston return to the top of the East with a third win in five with Green's (4) shorthanded and Orr's (6) powerplay goals winning the special teams war. Esposito (15) added an empty netter after a pair from Stanfield (12). The North Stars have lost five of their last six but a three point night from P MacDonald (13) and a goal from Boudrias (12) brought Minnesota back from 0-3 down in the second period.
Two goals each from Rousseau (6), Backstrom (9) and Corunoyer (14), with T Harris and Savard earning four and three assists each, helped put Montreal joint-second in the East with a fourth win in five games. Oakland have seven losses in nine now but Cahan and K Douglas both hit five goals on the year.
New York's undefeated run ends at five games, Goyette (9) scoring the only Rangers goal, as Chicago enjoy a third win in four thanks to Mikita (22), R Hull (16) and Schmautz (4).
Detroit's hit their longest unbeaten streak of the year with a fourth without loss; D Roberts (4), Howe's (18) powerplay game winner and T Hampson's (3) empty netter doing the job. Pittsburgh continue to suffer of late with four games in a row without a win and just a pair of victories in their last eleven; Bathgate (14) avoiding the shutout.
It's three losses in four for the Maple Leafs as they blew a lead in the third period, Pappin (3) and Armstrong scoring the games first and last goals. St Louis are three without defeat, Cameron (4), B McCreary (15) and Keenan (5) with an empty net game winner at 19:06 the goalscorers.
