-

MONTREAL — Jordan Harris had his first career two-goal game and the last-place Montreal Canadiens earned wins on backto-back afternoons with a 6-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Sunday.

Alex Belzile, Josh Anderson, Rafael Harveypina­rd and Christian Dvorak added goals for Montreal. Evgenii Dadonov and Jonathan Drouin each recorded two assists. Jake Allen made 30 saves.

Leon Draisaitl and Evander Kane scored for Edmonton. Connor Mcdavid was scoreless, ending a 15-game point streak.

Stuart Skinner made 24 saves as the Oilers recorded their first regulation loss in

12 games. They were on a 9-0-2 run heading into Sunday’s contest.

Sharks 4, Capitals 1:

Erik Karlsson had a goal and two assists, Aaron Dell stopped all eight shots he faced in relief and San Jose ended its road trip by beating Washington. Karlsson now has 55 assists, second in the

NHL, and 73 points, his highest total in nearly a decade. Dell replaced starter Kaapo Kahkonen late in the second. Evgeny Kuznetsov inadverten­tly skated into Kahkonen’s head after scoring the Capitals’ only goal with 3:04 left in the second, and the Finnish goalie was pulled.

Kraken 4, Flyers 3:

Jaden Schwartz scored twice and

Jordan Eberle had a goal and an assist for Seattle, which snapped a three-game skid. Philipp Grubauer made 18 saves.

Golden Knights 7, Ducks 2:

Seven Vegas players had two points and the Golden Knights scored five in the third to break open a one-goal game, extending their winning streak to three. Michael Amadio, William Carrier, Jack Eichel, Phil Kessel and Shea Theodore each had a goal and an assist. Reilly Smith and William Karlsson each had two assists. Isac Lundestrom had a goal and an assist for Anaheim.

Senators: Goaltender Anton Forsberg is out indefinite­ly after tearing the medial collateral ligament in both of his knees during a game against Edmonton. Forsberg was injured late in the third period Saturday when Senators defenseman Travis Hamonic pushed Oilers winger Zach Hyman on top of the goaltender during a scramble. Forsberg had to be removed from the ice on a stretcher. The Senators also announced that rookie defenseman Jake Sanderson will miss at least two weeks with an upper-body injury sustained in the 6-3 loss to Edmonton.
