Yandle ties Iron Man mark in Flyers’ loss

-

Keith Yandle tied the NHL record for consecutiv­e games played with 964 and the Philadelph­ia Flyers tied a franchise record with their 12th straight winless game, losing 3-1 to the Dallas Stars on Monday night.

Jacob Peterson scored the go-ahead goal with 3:25 left and Joe Pavelski added an empty-netter to seal the win.

The Flyers have lost all 12 games over that span, matching a mark for futility set during the 1998-99 season when they lost eight games and tied four over a 12-game stretch. There are no ties to save them from this indignity.

The Flyers can hit their all-time worst streak — and Yandle can take his spot in history — on the road today against the Islanders.

DUCKS 5, BRUINS 3 >> Troy Terry scored his teamleadin­g 23rd goal, Ryan Getzlaf had a goal and set up another, and Anaheim cooled off Boston. Isac Lundestrom, Derek Grant and Greg Pateryn also scored for the visiting Ducks, who won for the fourth time in 11 games. The Bruins had gone 10-2 since Jan. 1.

GOLDEN KNIGHTS 1, CAPITALS 0 >> Robin Lehner made 34 saves for his first shutout of the season, backstoppi­ng Vegas to a victory at Washington. Making his sixth consecutiv­e start, Lehner recorded his first shutout since April 16 and the 17th of his NHL career. The Capitals were shut out for the first time this season in their 43rd game.

RANGERS 3, KINGS 2, SO >> Adam Fox scored the deciding goal in the sixth round of a shootout and New York beat visiting L.A. for its ninth win in 12 games.
