-

Brian Campbell scored the go-ahead goal in the second period, and the Florida Panthers got two more scores in the third period to win their third consecutiv­e game with a 4-2 victory Sunday night at Edmonton. Tomas Kopecky, Jimmy Hayes and Sean Bergenheim also scored for the Panthers, who are 4-1 through the first five games of a six-game road trip. Jussi Jokinen added two assists, and Roberto Luongo made 31 saves. Jordan Eberle and Benoit Pouliot scored for the Oilers, who have won just four times in their past 28 games. Other game Blackhawks 4, Wild 0: Marian Hossa, Bryan Bickell and Brad Richards each had a goal and an assist, leading Chicago past reeling Minnesota. Defenseman Johnny Oduya also scored and Corey Crawford had 36 saves as the host Blackhawks rebounded from an ugly 5-2 loss Friday night at Edmonton. Detroit put goalie Jimmy Howard on injured reserve after he was carted off the ice with a groin injury in Saturday night’s game at Washington. … Philadelph­ia goalie Steve Mason is expected to miss two weeks because of a lower-body injury. Ray Emery will take over as the starter and Rob Zepp was recalled from the Lehigh Valley of the American Hockey League. … Los Angeles rookie forward Tanner Pearson is out indefinite­ly with a broken left leg. Pearson, who was hurt when he crashed feet-first into the boards Saturday night, is the Kings’ second-leading goalscorer with 12 in 42 games this season. … Buffalo forward Cody McCormick has been hospitaliz­ed because of a blood clot in his leg. Coach Ted Nolan said McCormick was fortunate the clot was discovered when it was, and added it’s uncertain how long McCormick will be out. Notes
