PHILADELPHIA (AP) While the Philadelphia Flyers couldn’t prevent Patrik Laine from scoring his 40th goal Brian Elliott Jersey , they were able to stop everyone else and end their slide.Claude Giroux and Andrew MacDonald scored in the second period and the Flyers overcame Laine’s milestone in a 2-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday that snapped a five-game losing streak.”We needed the two points. Looking at the standings, we needed it,” Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said. ”It was a good for us to get headed in the right direction.”Laine moved into a tie with Washington’s Alex Ovechkin for the most goals in the league when he scored on a one-timer on the power play at 8:58 of the third period. The 19-year-old Finn has 15 goals and six assists during an 11-game point streak.”Hitting the 40 mark, but skating now. He looks so much better than he did a month ago,” Winnipeg coach Paul Maurice said. ”A special young man, 19 years old and still growing into his body. A really competitive guy, wants to score. He’s going to be a good Winnipeg Jet for a long time.”Trouble is, he got no help, despite Maurice mixing up his lines. Petr Mrazek stopped 27 shots for the Flyers http://www.officialflyersproshop.com/authentic-adidas-claude-giroux-jersey , bouncing back from a stretch of 18 goals allowed in four games.”I felt pretty good from the beginning,” Mrazek said.Connor Hellebuyck made 33 saves for the Jets, who saw their four-game winning streak end.Mrazek robbed Laine with his glove in the first period, then the Flyers took control in the second period, with their second goal coming in odd fashion.After the officials ruled Hellebuyck had kept the puck out of the goal when he swiped out MacDonald’s backhand with his glove at 8:01, play continued for 41 seconds until the NHL replay unit in Toronto alerted the scoreboard operator to blow the horn.Play was stopped with the puck loose near center ice. The replay showed it crossed the line just inside the right post before Hellebuyck threw it out.”Toronto really hasn’t been helping me out too much this year,” Hellebuyck said.MacDonald picked up his fifth goal, Jakub Voracek earned his NHL-high 58th assist and rookie Nolan Patrick also earned a point against his hometown team.Earlier, Giroux found a way to stop the Flyers’ woes on the power play by scoring on a delayed penalty.The Flyers drew boos on their first man advantage and were outshot 2-1 on their second to fall into a 2-for-26 slump. But Giroux then scored his 24th from the left dot after Mrazek had skated off for an extra attacker at 5:40 of the second period.The up-and-down Flyers were playing the fifth game of a difficult six-game stretch against teams with a combined record of 245-118-37 entering Saturday. Their 0-4-1 skid had followed a six-game winning streak that moved them atop the Metropolitan Division.The Flyers entered the day third in their division and the Jets were second in the Central Division.Both teams had to make emergency recalls from the minors before the game.The Jets played their second straight game without 51-point scorer Mark Scheifele (upper body).

Ryan assisted on both goals.“They’re tenacious,” Flames coach Bill Peters said. “That line is doing everything right.

I think I belong here, but it’s still a day-to-day job. Work hard in practice, work hard in the game and good things will happen.”Mangiapane Youth Jordan Weal Jersey , Ryan and Hathaway capitalized on an Ottawa turnover in Calgary’s zone in the first period. The trio rushed the puck up ice and Hathaway finished with a tap-in for a 2-1 lead.“It was a pretty play and I was lucky enough to be at the end of it,” Hathaway said. “Pretty much whenever we’re on the ice, we know what the right play is.“We’re not guessing. You don’t have to guess where the other guy is going to be. You don’t have to throw away the puck. You can control it. You get a little more confidence as you do that and can build off it.”Giordano’s short-handed goal that pulled Calgary even in the opening period was his seventh point in six games.NOTES: Sean Monahan (illness) and Sam Bennett (upper-body injury) returned to Calgary’s lineup after missing two games, but Bennett did not play the third period. … Giordano moved into second in all-time games played as a member of the Flames (827), behind Jarome Iginla (1,219). … Senators forward Jean-Gabriel Pageau served a one-game suspension Thursday for boarding Canucks defenseman Ashton Sautner on Wednesday.UP NEXTSenators: At Edmonton on Saturday.Flames: At Vancouver on Saturday.
