Panthers beat Penguins in overtime
Associated Press, Sunrise, Florida
Valeri Bure scored at 2:19 of overtime as the Florida Panthers overcame a late goal by Mario Lemieux to beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 on Wednesday.
Bure took a pass from Kristian Huselius and squeezed the puck past Johan Hedberg on the right side for a power-play goal, ending the Penguins' four-game winning streak.
The Panthers appeared headed for a win in regulation until Lemieux, the NHL's leading scorer with 29 points, tied it at 3-3 with 9 seconds remaining in regulation. Lemieux, who has scored at least two points in his last seven games, assisted on Dick Tarnstrom's goal to open the scoring.
Huselius, Viktor Kozlov and Olli Jokinen scored for the Panthers.
Alexandre Daigle had the other goal for Pittsburgh.
In Dallas, Mike Modano had two goals and an assist, and Brenden Morrow scored on a penalty shot as Dallas handed Vancouver its first road loss.
Marty Turco stopped 26 shots for his second shutout of the season and seventh of his career.
Ulf Dahlen added a first-period power-play for Dallas.
Morrow made it 2-0 at 5:05 of the first after he was awarded a penalty shot when he was hauled down by Ed Jovanovski on a breakaway while the Stars were killing a penalty. Morrow fired a 20-foot wrist shot through Cloutier's pads for his fifth goal, and third shorthanded.
In Denver, Marian Hossa scored three goals, and Daniel Alfredsson had a goal and two assists as Ottawa kept Colorado winless at home.
Magnus Arvedson also scored and Patrick Lalime had 36 saves for Ottawa, which extended its franchise record by scoring a power-play goal in its ninth straight game.
It was Hossa's second career hat trick, with his other coming Nov. 18, 2000, against Florida. Alfredsson has scored in all 10 of the Senators' games this season.
David Aebischer, starting his second straight game in place of the injured Patrick Roy, stopped 29 shots.
Vaclav Nedorost and Radim Vrbata scored for Colorado.
In Anaheim, California, Petr Sykora scored the go-ahead goal on a power play early in the third period as Anaheim handed Nashville its ninth one-goal loss.
