PITTSBURGH (AP) Evgeni Malkin is in the midst of a scoring race Adidas Anton Khudobin Jersey , while the Pittsburgh Penguins compete for the top spot in the Metropolitan Division. Teammate Jamie Oleksiak helped the cause with a goal against his former team.Malkin and Oleksiak both scored to help the Penguins beat the Dallas Stars 3-1 on Sunday night.”I don’t really think I need to be a guy that scores a bunch of goals or gets a bunch of points,” said Oleksiak, who scored his fifth of the season. ”We have a lot of that here.”Malkin is a prime example with his 39th goal of the season and an assist. He has 87 points to pull one behind league-leader Nikita Kucherov of Tampa Bay. Malkin’s 39 goals are also one from the league’s co-leaders – Washington’s Alex Ovechkin and Winnipeg’s Patrik Laine.”I just don’t want to think about that,” Malkin said. ”I want to sleep at night. It’s a good challenge for me.”Malkin, now with 919 points, moved past Pavel Datsyuk for fifth on the NHL’s all-time points list among Russian-born players. Malkin, with 38 points in his last 20 games, also equaled a season-high six-game points streak.”It has been confidence, I think,” Malkin said. ”I feel it again, and if you score in one or two games, you feel so much better.”Patric Hornqvist scored a power-play goal, his 20th Adidas Chris Terry Jersey , to help the Penguins win for the fourth in five games.Pittsburgh, which rebounded from a 5-2 loss at Toronto one night earlier, jumped past Washington for first place in a tight Metropolitan Division. The Penguins, who lost six of their previous seven against Dallas, have won 14 of their last 15 overall at home.Casey DeSmith made 17 saves for the Penguins with starter Matt Murray out for his seventh game with a concussion.”You can tell by the way we played tonight that we are trying to get into that playoff mode,” DeSmith said.Alexander Radulov scored a power-play goal, his 25th of the season, for the Stars, who started a critical late-season stretch of six road games in 10 days with a loss against the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions. Dallas, the first wild card in the Western Conference, is 14-15-3 on the road and has just two wins in its last six games.Kari Lehtonen, making his third straight start, stopped 27 shots.”It’s always a little disappointing to not get points at this time of year Adidas Dennis Cholowski Jersey ,” Lehtonen said. ”It doesn’t matter if it’s the first game of the road trip or what not. We played careless.”Hornqvist opened the scoring with a first-period power-play goal. The final pick of the 2005 NHL Draft, he has scored at least 20 goals in eight of 10 NHL seasons, including the last five. The Penguins had two goals in their last 18 power-play chances prior to Hornqvist’s goal.Oleksiak gave Pittsburgh a 2-0 lead with 3.7 seconds left in the first. The Stars drafted Oleksiak in the first round of the 2011 NHL Draft and Pittsburgh acquired the 6-foot-7, 25-year-old defenseman from Dallas on Dec. 19 for a 2019 conditional fourth-round draft pick.”I just kind of closed my eyes and shot it as hard as I could,” Oleksiak said. ”I was calling for it a little bit, he put it in my sweet spot, I saw the opportunity and took it.”Radulov scored a second-period power-play goal on a five-on-three for the Stars’ only goal.Hornqvist thought he had his second power-play goal of the game, and a 3-1 lead for Pittsburgh later in the period. But the Stars challenged the play and the goal was overturned because Malkin went offside earlier in the sequence.”It was a surprise to me, but it’s the rules,” Malkin said. ”Sometimes that happens.”NOTES: Stars G Ben Bishop missed his third game with a knee injury. He is expected to skate with equipment Monday after skating without pads Sunday morning. … Pittsburgh scratched F Dominik Simon (lower-body), F Bryan Rust (concussion), F Zach Aston-Reese (upper body) and D Matt Hunwick. … Marc Methot (knee) and Mattias Janmark (illness) both played for Dallas after missing Friday’s game against Anaheim. … Stars F Antoine Roussel played in his 400th career NHL game. He is the first in NHL history from France to play in 400 games.UP NEXTStars: Continue a six-game road trip Tuesday at MontrealPenguins: Open a three-game road trip at the New York Rangers on Wednesday BOSTON (AP) The Tampa Bay Lightning have a chance to get the last licks on the Boston Bruins at home.Dan Girardi scored 3:18 into overtime to give Tampa Bay a 4-3 victory over Boston on Friday night in a game that featured more face-licking from Brad Marchand but left the Lightning with a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals as they return to Florida for a potential clincher in Game 5.”It’s going to be the hardest game of the series, and it always is Adidas Wade Megan Jersey ,” said Tampa Bay wing Ryan Callahan, who was swabbed by Marchand’s tongue in the second period – the second straight opponent to complain about the tactic by the Bruins’ forward.”It’s unfortunate that he goes that low to do that, but doesn’t take us off our game,” Callahan said. ”Hopefully, the league looks at it. I don’t know if there is discipline for spitting in someone’s face, but to me it’s worse if not the same.”Tampa Bay jumped ahead 2-0 for the second straight game. But this time Boston answered with three straight goals, including a short-handed score by Patrice Bergeron – his second of the game – to break a third-period tie.Steven Stamkos tied it 3-all with seven minutes left in regulation after Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy turned the puck over behind the Boston net after he appeared to be pulled down from behind. Girardi ended it when he got a stick on a pass from Alex Killorn that was deflected off Brian Gionta’s skate in the crease.A two-time NHL goal-scoring champion, Stamkos had just one goal in the playoffs before adding an empty-netter in Game 3.”It was like Stam said, `I’ve had enough,”’ Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. ”It was just a matter of time, but we needed him, and he was there for us.”Brayden Point and Nikita Kucherov also scored for the Lightning, and Andrei Vasilevskiy made 25 saves.Tuukka Rask stopped 28 shots for the Bruins. Torey Krug Adidas Evgeny Svechnikov Jersey , who was helped off the bench to the locker room in the third period and did not finish the game, had a pair of assists, as did Marchand.But Marchand – whose nickname ”Little Ball of Hate” even made its way to President Barack Obama when the Bruins visited the White House after their 2011 Stanley Cup win – was the talk of the postgame more for his penchant for licking opponents.Marchand went nose-to-nose with Callahan after a whistle with 1:21 left in the second, then leaned in and tried to lick Callahan’s face. The Lightning forward pushed him away.”He punched me four times in the face,” Marchand said. ”He just kept getting close. Nothing big.”The Toronto Maple Leafs also complained about the tactic during their first-round series with Boston. Told that Callahan compared licking to spitting and said it should be penalized accordingly, Marchand said, ”That’s cute. Good for him.”Two nights after scoring twice in the first 3:19 for a lead they would never relinquish, the Lightning again opened a 2-0 lead. Point scored about five minutes in when he split defenders Zdeno Chara and McAvoy at the blue line and then faked out Rask in the crease.With the Bruins already a man down, Chara then backhanded the puck over the glass on a clearing attempt for another penalty. It was back to 5-on-4 when Kucherov made it 2-0 midway through the period on a power-play one-timer from the faceoff circle.But David Pastrnak one-timed a golf-shot into the net to make it 2-1 after one, and then the Bruins tied it early in the second on a give-and-go from Bergeron to Krug and back to Bergeron. Boston was back on the penalty kill six minutes into the third when Marchand chased down a puck in the Lightning end and then delivered a cross pass that Bergeron redirected into the net.Tampa Bay tied it with seven minutes left after Kucherov appeared to pull McAvoy down behind the Bruins net. The puck worked its from to J.T. Miller and then Stamkos in the slot for a one-timer to tie it 3-all with seven minutes left in regulation.”It looks like he reached around and pulled him down,” Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy said. ”Charlie’s a strong guy. But it wasn’t called, and it’s in our net. The non-call impacted the game directly.”NOTES: Bruins Hall of Famer Ray Bourque was in the crowd. … Referee Francois St. Laurent took a spill in the first minute of the third period and crashed head- and shoulder-first into the boards behind the Lightning net. He remained in the game.
