Devils remain unbeaten

Kyle Palmieri scored his seventh goal in four games, Keith Kinkaid stopped 24 shots for his second shutout, and the host New Jersey Devils continued their perfect start, beating the Dallas Stars 3-0 on Tuesday night in Newark.

Late pickup Jean-Sebastien Dea tallied for the third straight game, and Blake Coleman added a goal as the Devils (4-0) remained the NHL’s only unbeaten team. The 4-0 start is their best since 1995-96.

Palmieri also became the first player in NHL history to score his team’s opening goal in four consecutive games to begin a season, the league said.

Dallas lost for the second time in as many nights. OILERS 5, JETS 4 >> Connor McDavid had four points, and Darnell Nurse scored his first goal of the season 1:25 into overtime as Edmonton overcame a threegoal deficit to win on the road. McDavid scored twice and added a pair of assists for the Oilers, who were down 4-1 to start the third period.

McDavid set an NHL record by being in on his team’s first eight goals to start a season, breaking Adam Oates’ record of seven with Detroit in 198687.

CANUCKS 3, PENGUINS 2 >> Brock Boeser fired a wrist shot by Casey DeSmith’s stick and into the net 34 seconds into overtime to lift Vancouver to the road win. FLYERS 5, PANTHERS 5 >> Jordan Weal scored in the shootout to lift Philadelphia over Florida, keeping the Panthers (0-2-2) winless. RANGERS 3, AVALANCHE 2 >> Kevin Shattenkirk scored the deciding goal in a shootout to lift New York over visiting Colorado. Mats Zuccarello scored for the Rangers in the first round of the tiebreaker, and Mikko Rantanen tied it in the second. Shattenkirk then beat Avalanche goalie Semyon Varlamov in the third round, and Henrik Lundqvist denied Gabriel Landeskog to secure the win. Nathan MacKinnon set a Colorado franchise record with a goal in each of the first six games to open a season.
