Dubnyk notches 3rd straight shutout for Wild

-

Devan Dubnyk’s career- and franchise-record shutout streak continued on Tuesday night as the Minnesota Wild beat the Philadelph­ia Flyers 3-0.

Dubnyk stopped all 30 shots he faced for his third consecutiv­e shutout, running his streak without giving up a goal to 195:05. Dubnyk has now stopped the past 106 shots he has faced.

Nino Niederreit­er scored on Minnesota’s first shot of the game. Eric Staal and Jason Zucker added empty-net goals as the Wild ran their winning streak to three in a row.

In other NHL action, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Connor McDavid each scored twice in the Edmonton Oilers’ easy 8-2 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights.

Oscar Klefbom, Patrick Maroon, Matt Benning and Mark Letestu added goals as the lowest-scoring team in the NHL erupted for a season-high goal total in winning at home for only the fourth time in 10 games.

Elsewhere, Conor Sheary scored his second goal of the game 16 seconds into overtime as the Pittsburgh Penguins continued their domination of the Buffalo Sabres with a 5-4 triumph.

The Penguins have a 13-game point streak against the Sabres, who have not won against Pittsburgh since April 23, 2013.

Sidney Crosby ended an 11-game goal drought, while Phil Kessel and Patrick Hornqvist also scored for the Penguins.

Also, Filip Forsberg scored his 100th career goal in the Nashville Predators’ fifth straight victory, a 6-3 result over the visit-ing Washington Capitrals.
