Roundup: Avs get road win
By The Associated Press
RALEIGH, N.C. - Milan Hejduk scored 2:04 into overtime as the Colorado Avalanche rallied to beat the Carolina Hurricanes 3-2 Sunday.
Hejduk scored two goals and assisted on Rob Blake's tying score with 1:22 left in the third period for the Avalanche, who snapped a three-game losing streak.
Peter Forsberg added two assists for Colorado.
It was a tough loss for the Hurricanes, who took a 2-1 lead on Jeff O'Neill's breakaway goal early in the third period. Sean Hill also scored for Carolina, which has lost 12 of 18.
Blackhawks 2, Predators 0 CHICAGO - Jocelyn Thibault made 17 saves to record his NHL-leading sixth shutout in the Blackhawks' victory over Nashville.
Thibault was only lightly tested in his 33rd career shutout. He made one of his best stops when Nashville's Adam Hall fired from the edge of the crease during a Predators' power play with three minutes left in the third.
Eric Daze and Theo Fleury scored for Chicago, which snapped a four-game winless streak (0-0-2-2). Fleury's goal was the 450th of his career.
Alex Zhamnov had two assists for the Blackhawks, who have gone 12 games without a regulation loss (6-0-4-2). Nashville's three-game winning streak and four-game unbeaten run (3-0-1) ended.
Mighty Ducks 2, Blues 1 ANAHEIM, Calif. - Jason Krog and Niclas Havelid scored 61/2 minutes apart in the third period and Anaheim held St. Louis to just 19 shots.
The Ducks, 7-2-1 in their last 10 at home, were heading toward their third 1-0 loss in five games before Krog tied it with 12:25 left.
Anaheim is 3-0 against the Blues after going 1-7 against them the previous two seasons.
Pavol Demitra opened the scoring at 12:22 of the second with his 15th goal.
