WINNIPEG -- The second line of the Winnipeg Jets deserved top billing Friday night as they spurred the team to a 5-3 win over the visiting Los Angeles Kings. Nikola Pekovic Timberwolves Jersey . Devin Setoguchi had two and linemate Evander Kane another as the Jets found their legs in the second period, after being swarmed by the Kings in the first. The line clicked so smoothly it was fitting that even the officials couldnt tell who scored, giving Kane credit for a goal they switched to Setoguchi after the game ended. "That was a lucky one," said Setoguchi, describing the shot by Kane that glanced off his stick. He teamed with Kane for his second goal as well. "It was nice to get the other one on the wraparound but the main thing is we won the game." Kane even took a five-minute penalty for fighting in a very physical game and wasnt apologizing. "You need to let them know youre not going to be run out of your own building," he said. "I thought we did a pretty good job of sticking up for each other." Olli Jokinen and Bryan Little also scored for the Jets (2-0-0). Blake Wheeler had a goal called back in the second because the net was off its moorings. Matt Greene, Jeff Carter and Justin Williams scored for the Kings (1-1-0), who outshot the Jets 18-7 in the first, with goalie Ondrej Pavelec keeping Winnipeg alive. The Jets went into the game saying it would be a good test. The Kings are one of the strongest teams in the Western Conference, where the Jets are playing this season. Despite the slow start, the Jets were leading 4-1 in the third when the Kings got back some of the fire they had in the first period. They brought the game within one with two quick power-play goals, before Little scored into an empty net. "We have a way of making games exciting," said Jets coach Claude Noel. "Its not something we want to get in a habit of doing." But he saw things he liked, besides the two points. "We had some good games from a lot of people," he said. "We started off slow again and I thought the game changed a little bit in in the second period and the third period. I thought we were quite a bit better. I thought we did some simple things." One of those was getting shots off, which didnt happen in the first, and not turning over the puck in the neutral zone. Coach Darryl Sutter wasnt in a mood to provide much analysis but denied they were tired after two games in two nights. They beat the Minnesota Wild in a shootout Thursday. "It was a pretty close game wasnt it?" he said. Added Kings left-winger Dwight King: "We wanted to have a good start, I think we got out to a good start, obviously we got a lot of pucks on the net. It kind of fell off a bit and they took advantage . . . We tried to fight back at the end but it wasnt enough." Failing to control the puck in their own zone cost both the Jets and Kings in the first period, although the Kings put on most of the pressure. Greene was first to score, glancing one off Dustin Byfuglien after intercepting Byfugliens failed attempt to clear the puck from in front of the net. But then Kane tied it up by dumping it in from the other side of the blue-line, catching it on the rebound off Greene and sending it high past Jonathan Quicks glove. Setoguchis linemate Mark Scheifele picked up an assist, while Setoguchi also set up a goal. The line accounted for most of the pressure and scoring chances the Jets created in the first period. It was the Jets who came on strong in the second. Wheeler scored what could have been the go-ahead goal on a power play, except that the L.A. net was off its moorings. It took a call to Toronto by the officials but the goal was disallowed. Instead, it was Jokinen who put the Jets ahead at 12:54 of the second when he lifted Michael Froliks rebound high to the right side of the net as Quick went low to the left. Noel juggled his third line Friday night, putting Jokinen between Eric Tangradi and Frolik, who scored a pair in the Jets opener in Edmonton. He liked what he saw but said he doesnt know yet how long they will stay together. Setoguchi scored his first on a power play at 2:21 of the third period on a shot from Kane. He attacked again at 5:19 to make it 4-1 when Quick managed to stop Kanes rush and Setoguchi swept behind the net and stuffed it in the other side. Sutter put Ben Scrivens in net. Carter scored the Kings second goal of the night at 11:01 of the third, a few seconds into a power play from a tripping penalty called against Jets defenceman Jacob Trouba. The Jets were ahead on shots until the last seven minutes of the third when the Kings found new life after Carters goal. Williams brought the Kings within one on the power play at 15:44 when he caught the left corner of the Jets net from the faceoff circle but Little sealed the win with a breakaway into an empty net with 47 seconds left. Notes: This was only the second time the Jets have played the Kings. Their first, in 2011 and also at MTS Centre, was settled in overtime when Evander Kane made it 1-0. Now that the Jets are in the Western Conference, they will meet L.A. three times, the next Mar. 6. Authentic Tayshaun Prince Jersey .

They proved it in overtime. Torey Krug scored 34 seconds into OT and the Bruins beat Pittsburgh 4-3 on Monday night, snapping a seven-game, regular-season losing streak to the Penguins in a matchup of the Eastern Conferences top two teams. Pittsburgh captain Crosby had scored with 0.3 seconds left in regulation to tie it. But the Bruins responded quickly. Playing with three forwards and one defenceman, they want right at the Penguins. "We were OK," Boston coach Claude Julien said of the late goal. "For some teams, sometimes it can be demoralizing. But I think this may have made us more hungry to go and try to win it." Krug won it with a slap shot from the left circle that beat goalie Marc-Andre Fleury past his left arm. Loui Eriksson and Reilly Smith scored first-period goals, and Zdeno Chara made it 3-2 with 5:15 left in regulation for the conference-leading Bruins, who are 8-2-1 in their last 11 games. Tuukka Rask made 28 saves for Boston, which beat the Penguins for the first time since December 2011. Boston also improved to 7-0-2 in its last nine home games, with both losses coming in shootouts. "Its tough," Krug said of the tying goal, "but weve got the guys and leadership where were not going to get down." Pittsburgh salvaged a point after pulling Fleury for an extra skater. Chris Kunitz fired a desperation backhander on net, and Crosby -- at the edge of the crease -- deflected the puck across the goal line behind Rask just as the green light went on. A video review clearly showed that the puck went in before time ran out. "Just hanging around the crease, hoping the puck would end there," Crosby said. Rask said it didnt distract him or his teammates for very long. "Youre always kind of mad about that, but we didnt let it bother us," he said. "We went out in overtime and took the puck to their zone and then scored a goal I think thats the sign of a good team that you dont get down on yourself after a goal like that." James Neal scored the first two goals for Pittsburgh, and Fleury made 20 saves. The Penguins, playing their third game in five days, lost for the sixth timee in 10 games. Nemanja Bjelica Timberwolves Jersey. "I liked the way, against this tough team, we stayed with the game plan and did come out with a tie after regulation," Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said. It was the first meeting in Boston since the Bruins completed a sweep of the Penguins in last seasons conference finals. Krug, skating in on the left wing, just wanted to get a hard shot on net. "A couple of times earlier I missed the net when I had good scoring chances," he said. "I just wanted to make sure hed have to make a save with his hands." Neal lifted the Penguins into a 2-2 tie with a rising wrist shot from the left circle that beat Rask under the crossbar with 8:51 left in the third. Despite being outshot 10-1 in the opening nine minutes of the game, Boston held a 2-0 lead after the first period. Both goals were set up by Carl Soderberg. Erikssons goal was a highlight play by the winger. He took a pass from Soderberg that was a little behind him near the Penguins blue line. He pushed the puck between his legs to his forehand, broke in alone, and tucked a backhander between Fleurys pads. Smiths power play goal made it 2-0 just 3:16 later. The Penguins hadnt allowed a power-play goal in six games, but Smith, cutting to the net, one-timed a pass out of the right corner from Soderberg nine seconds after Pascal Dupuis was sent off for hooking. After Smiths score, the crowd broke into chants of Fleury! Fleury! Pittsburgh cut it to 2-1 just 37 seconds into the second period when Neal fired a wrist shot from the slot that beat Rask stick side. NOTES: Former Penguins star Mario Lemieux was at the game. ...
