NHL ROUNDUP

Bruins 3, Devils 0

Tuukka Rask stopped 31 shots in his 46th career shutout, leading Boston to a victory over New Jersey to win its home opener on Saturday night. Brad Marchand, Joakim Nordstrom and Patrice Bergeron all scored in the Bruins' first game on home ice since losing 4-1 in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final against the St. Louis Blues in June. Boston won its first three road games this season before a 4-2 loss at Colorado on Thursday night. Cory Schneider stopped 29 shots for the Devils, who are 0-3-2. Boston took a 2-0 lead after one period with a pair of goals in the first 12 minutes. Marchand put the Bruins on the scoreboard 3:33 in when he skated to the high slot and fired a wrist shot to beat a screened Schneider. Nordstrom doubled the lead with 8:38 left in the period. Sean Kuraly corralled a rebound in the slot and backhanded the puck to Chris Wagner, whose pass in front of the crease was finished off by Nordstrom. Bergeron made it 3-0 on a power-play goal with 46 seconds left in the second period, poking in a rebound of Marchand's shot from the right circle. Rask turned away a handful of Devils' scoring chances during a second period mostly controlled by the visitors with a 16-9 shots advantage.

Oilers 4, Rangers 1

Connor McDavid scored the tiebreaking goal and Leon Draisaitl had two goals and an assist, all in the third period, and Edmonton beat New York for its season-opening fifth straight win. Oscar Klefbom had a goal and an assist, McDavid also had an assist, and Mike Smith stopped 20 shots to help Edmonton complete a sweep of the New York area teams. The Oilers beat the Islanders 4-1 on Tuesday night, and then edged New Jersey 4-3 in a shootout Thursday night. Edmonton, 5-0-0 for the first time in 34 years, became the first team in NHL history to win its first five games after trailing in each. Rookie Kaapo Kakko had his first NHL goal for the Rangers, who had won their first two games but were playing for the first time in a week. Henrik Lundqvist finished with 23 saves. With the score 1-1, Lundqvist made several nice saves early in the third to keep the score tied, and Edmonton's Matt Benning hit a goalpost at 5:15. New York's Artemi Panarin was stopped by Smith on a wide-open try from the left side 70 seconds later.
