SAN JOSE Womens Steven Stamkos Jersey , Calif. (AP) Evander Kane has done a good job tormenting the Calgary Flames with his goal-scoring prowess and physical play.Kane scored twice to give him six goals in his past two games against Calgary and got into two scrums as the San Jose Sharks won their seventh straight game, beating the Flames 5-1 on Saturday.”I’m not a guy to shy away from the physical part of the game,” Kane said. ”That’s a big part of hockey in my mind and a lot of people’s. You don’t see fighting as much anymore. But at the same time I think it’s very necessary and sometimes it calls for it.”Kane followed up his four-goal effort in Calgary a week ago with another impactful performance, scoring a short-handed goal in the second period to give the Sharks a 3-1 lead and an insurance goal in the third. He also used his physical play to get into a scrum with Mikael Backlund and a fight with Travis Hamonic.The Sharks improved to 10-2 since acquiring Kane just before the trade deadline last month, including this current streak that is the longest for San Jose since a seven-gamer from March 25 to April 5, 2013.”This is the time of year you want to be playing well, you want to get hot,” coach Peter DeBoer said. ”For me it’s about our game. The results are nice, the wins are nice. Out of the seven games this was probably the sloppiest of the seven but we found a way to win.”Brenden Dillon Tyler Johnson Jersey , Jannik Hansen and Justin Braun also scored for the Sharks, who moved six points ahead of Los Angeles in the race for home-ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs. The Kings played later Saturday in Edmonton. Martin Jones made 37 saves.Michael Stone scored the lone for the Flames, who have lost five straight to fall out of the playoff race. Calgary trails Anaheim by nine points for the final playoff spot with just six games remaining. David Rittich made 28 saves.The Flames have been outscored 25-7 during the skid despite outshooting the opponent each game.”It seems like we’re leading the NHL in moral victories but it’s not getting us any points right now,” forward Troy Brouwer said. ”It resulted in another loss where we actually had really good stretches during the game but ultimately no results.”The Flames were controlling the play in the second period before Kane’s goal turned the momentum back in San Jose’s favor. Calgary held San Jose without a shot on goal for more than six minutes to start the period and had just started a power play when Kane struck for his goal.Chris Tierney skated into the offensive zone and held the puck near the net as Johnny Gaudreau skated past Kane, who was set up in front of the crease. Tierney then slid a pass to Kane, who knocked it into the open net for his sixth goal with the Sharks and 26th on the season.Kane then had his run-ins with the Flames late in the second and early in the third before the Sharks broke it open with goals from Braun and Kane midway through the third period.Dillon, who assisted on Kane’s second goal, then got into a fight late in the game with Garnet Hathaway to complete the Gordie Howe hat trick.The Sharks started fast and scored twice in a span of 74 seconds midway through the first period with goals by Dillon and Hansen.The Flames got one back with a blast from the point through traffic by Stone.NOTES: The Sharks honored Jonathan Cheechoo, who recently announced his retirement. … Brent Burns‘ assist on Hansen’s goal was his 49th of the season Victor Hedman Jersey , breaking the record he set two years ago for Sharks defensemen. … Flames F Matthew Tkachuk (upper body) and D TJ Brodie did not make the trip for the two games in California.UP NEXTFlames: Visit Los Angeles on MondaySharks: Visit Chicago on Monday.— NEW YORK (AP) — One day after a tough loss to their crosstown rivals, the New York Islanders bounced back with a big win against the league-best Tampa Bay Lightning.Casey Cizikas and Cal Clutterbuck each had a goal and an assist, Thomas Greiss stopped 38 shots, and the Islanders beat the Lightning 5-1 Sunday night.On Saturday, the Islanders lost 2-1 at home to the Rangers.“Yesterday we left the rink with a bitter taste in our mouths and today we did a good job of rebounding and staying the course,” Cizikas said. “It just shows what type of team we are when we play the right way and how successful we can be. When we don’t play the right way, it’s ugly hockey and it’s not pretty. Tonight was a true test and the guys answered.”Brock Nelson, rookie Devon Toews and Josh Bailey also scored as New York had three goals in the opening five minutes and went on to get their 11th win in 14 games. Matt Martin had two assists to give each player on the Islanders’ fourth line two points.Tampa Bay was 18-1-1 in its previous 20. The Lightning — the NHL leaders in wins (35), points (72) and road wins (16) — lost in regulation for just the ninth time this season Yanni Gourde Jersey , but second in the last five games.“Going up against the No. 1 team in the league and to keep them to one goal is definitely big,” Cizikas said. “And it definitely speaks volumes to our defense, our goalies and our forwards. It’s definitely a huge win and something that we got to build momentum going into the next one.”Ryan McDonagh had a goal and Andrei Vasilevskiy finished with 23 saves for Tampa Bay.“It’s tough to spot a team a 3-0 lead in this league,” Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. “You’re playing with fire. It cost us.”With Tampa Bay skating with an extra attacker with the goalie pulled, Greiss — who had 32 stops over the last 40 minutes — made a nice shoulder save sliding to his right on Steve Stamkos with about 4 ½ minutes left to preserve New York’s 4-1 lead.Bailey scored an empty-netter with 52 seconds left to cap the scoring.While the Islanders were home for the second straight day, the Lightning were playing on the road for the second night in a row — coming off a 5-3 win at Buffalo.“It was a big win but they had a tough back-to-back,” Greiss said. “Can’t overthink it and got to be ready for the next one.”Trailing by three after one period, the Lightning picked up their intensity in the second and outshot the Islanders 22-14.However, Cizikas pushed New York’s lead to 4-0 with just under nine minutes left in the period as he beat Vasilevskiy from the left side for his 11th.McDonagh got the Lightning on the scoreboard with 1:48 left in the middle period Auston Matthews Jersey , beating Greiss from the left circle for his fifth. Stamkos had an assist on the play, giving him seven assists and nine points in his last six games.The Islanders went on the power play just 20 seconds in, when Tampa Bay’s Erik Cernak was whistled for high-sticking. They took advantage 1:01 later as Jordan Eberle sent a pass from behind the goal line to Vasilevskiy’s right across in front to Nelson, who fired it past the Lightning goalie on the stick side from the right circle. It was Nelson’s 16th, tying him with captain Anders Lee for the team lead.Clutterbuck doubled the lead at 4:27 with his third of the season, and first since Nov. 15, tipping a pass off Vasilevskiy’s left skate with the puck fluttering in the air over the goal line.Toews made it 3-0 just 16 seconds later with a slap shot from the left point that gave the Islanders three goals on five shots.“We drew a penalty, we were able to get a goal and then you follow up and we got a little momentum,” New York coach Barry Trotz said. “Before they knew it Connor Brown Jersey , they were in a little bit of a hole.”The Lightning didn’t get their first shot on goal until 9:04 in, when Greiss stopped a slap shot by Yanni Gourde.NOTES: Lightning D Mikhail Sergachev was fined $2,403.67 by the NHL, the maximum allowed under the league’s CBA, for cross-checking Buffalo’s Johan Larsson in the third period of the Lightning’s win Saturday night. … Tampa Bay D Victor Hedman left the game early in the second period after being accidentally hit in the face by an official. He did not return. … The Lightning lost against a Metropolitan Division team for the first time in 13 games this season. … Mathew Barzal had an assist on Nelson’s goal, giving him a team-leading 29. … New York scored at least four goals for the seventh time in the last 14 games.UP NEXTLightning: At Dallas on Tuesday night to finish a three-game trip.Islanders: Host St. Louis on Tuesday night.
