Games played on Nov. 15, 2014

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Jarret Stoll scored his first goal of the season 2:19 into overtime, and the Los Angeles Kings rallied for a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday in the Freeway Faceoff.

Stoll tapped a slow-sliding puck under Frederik Andersen in the waning seconds of a power play for the defending Stanley Cup champions, who came back from a late deficit in the Southern California clubs' second entertaining meeting in four days.

Tyler Toffoli scored a short-handed goal, Jonathan Quick made 27 saves and Anze Kopitar scored the tying power-play goal midway through the third period for the Kings, who won for just the third time in 10 games.

Emerson Etem and Ryan Kesler scored for the Ducks, who beat Los Angeles 6-5 on Wednesday.

Anaheim has earned points in seven straight games, but its five-game regular-season winning streak against Los Angeles ended.

PENGUINS 3, RANGERS 2, SO

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Brandon Sutter scored in the fourth round of the shootout, after the Rangers thought they had won it, and Pittsburgh escaped with a victory over New York.

Marc-Andre Fleury stopped Rick Nash to end the game for good.

Sidney Crosby failed to record a point in his fifth straight game against New York, but scored in the shootout. Derek Stepan had the lone shootout goal for the Rangers.

Evgeni Malkin scored his seventh goal, and Blake Comeau added his fourth in regulation for Pittsburgh, which has won nine of 10. Fleury stopped 29 shots to defeat the Rangers for the first time in five games.

Minnesota's Darcy Kuemper allowed only a second-period goal by Antoine Roussel and finished with 27 saves.

The Wild tied it at 1 on Erik Haula's goal at 15:41 of the second.

Minnesota won its second straight game after a four-game losing streak.

Lehtonen had 20 saves.

BRUINS 2, HURRICANES 1

BLUE JACKETS 2, SHARKS 1

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - David Savard and Cam Atkinson scored, and Sergei Bobrovsky had 36 saves in his return from the injured list to lead Columbus over San Jose.

Bobrovsky missed the previous eight games due to a broken finger in his left hand.

Joe Pavelski had the goal for the Sharks, and Antti Niemi stopped 26 shots.

The Sharks, down a goal, had a prime chance to tie it. Columbus forward Alexander Wennberg went off for a double-minor for high-sticking Scott Hannah with 5 minutes left in regulation. The Sharks pulled Niemi with 20 seconds left in the penalty for an extra attacker, but Bobrovsky and the defense killed the penalty.
