Wednesday's NHL Capsules

PITTSBURGH (AP) - R.J. Umberger and Matt Read scored 2 minutes apart in the third period to lift the Philadelphia Flyers past the Pittsburgh Penguins, 5-3 on Wednesday night.

Umberger, a Pittsburgh native, beat Marc-Andre Fleury 6:50 into the third to break a tie and Read followed with a backhander to help the Flyers improve to 12-2-1 at Consol Energy Center since the arena opened in 2010.

Sean Couturier had a goal and an assist, Mark Streit and Pierre-Edouard Bellemare also scored for the Flyers, and Ray Emery stopped 21 shots.

Nick Spaling had a goal and an assist for Pittsburgh, Pascal Dupuis and Marcel Goc also scored, and Marc-Andre Fleury made 28 saves.

Though the game featured two U.S. teams, the sell-out crowd sang "O Canada" before the opening faceoff as a tribute to a Canadian soldier killed in attack in Ottawa on Wednesday.
