Acquired on Wednesday from the New York Rangers, Leetch donned a different uniform for the first time in his Nor-ri- s NHL career. The two-tim- e an made immediate winner Trophy impact, setting up two power-plagoals by Bryan McCabe and one by Mais Sundin. I Bruins 3, Rangers 1: At Boston, Sergei Gonchar scored in his Boston debut, and Joe Thornton had two goals to help the Bruins end a four-gam-e winless streak with a victory over New York. Jiri Slegr added a pair of assists, and ' newly acquired center Michael Nylander had an assist for the Bruins. Gondefenseman obtained char, the All-StWednesday from Washington, gave Boston a &0 lead with a power-plagoal 9:51 into the third period. Oilers 1, Blues 1: At St. Louis, Chris Osgood made 31 saves, including a penalty shot by Ryan Smyth, to help St. Louis tie Edmontoa The Blues earned only their second point in five games under new coach Mike Kitchen. in that span, totaling five They're in their last seven goals, and y streak. at home since Pittsburgh is Dec. 29. The Ottawa Senators went during their record streak from Oct. 28, -2 s win-les- 1995, through Jan. 27, 1996. The Predators, trying to hang onto one of the Western Conference's final two playoff spots, exploited the unit by league's worst penalty-killin- g d six power-pla- y scoring a including their first three goals goals. The six power-pla- y goals allowed set a Penguins record, topping the five they gave up four times previously, the last in 1989. "It's funny how it kept going in and in and in," Hamhuis said. "It's one of those nights when things are going your way. It's funny when it happens because it doesn't happen very often." team-recor- -1 goals-again- last-plac- ar A streaking power-pla- y unit faced the NHL's worst penalty-killing team, with predictable results: A 16th consecutive i4ttsburgh Penguins home game without a victory. Rookie defenseman Dan Hamhuis scored a goal during a five-poinight ' and the Nashville Predators quickly built a five-golead in a 94 victory Thursday, leaving the Penguins one loss or tie from matching tine league record for the longest home winless PITTSBURGH also become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. The Coyotes sent Sillinger to the Blues for goahender Brent Johnson. St. Louis was four points behind Los Angeles for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference. "I think he's a versatile player, and I think he gives the coaches some options," Blues general manager Larry Pleau said of Sillinger. "He can definitely help us on penalty killing and , he's got some quickness." The Johnson was once a rising star in the NHL He became the first goalie in league history to record shutouts in his first three postseason ' appearances in 2002. He has been plagued by inconsistency, and lost his starting job late last season when the Blues acquired Chris Osgood. Johnson cleared waivers in January and reported to Worcester of the American Hockey League. He was in 10 games with St. Louis this season, with a 2.43 average. The old Sillinger, strong on faceoff s, played in all but one of Phoenix's 61 games this season. He had eight goals and six assists. Sillinger joins his 10th NHL team in 14 seasons. 2 The Boston Bruins got Michael from Washington, Jim Dowd went from Minnesota to Montreal and St. Louis obtained Mike Sillinger from Phoenix. It was the second trade in two days between the Bruins and Capitals. Boston acquired star defenseman Sergei Gonchar on Wednesday for rookie defenseman Shaone Morrisonn and first- - and second-roun- d draft . picks. The Bruins, who entered Thursday night two points behind Toronto and Ottawa in the Northeast Division, got draft Ny lander for a second-roun- d pick in 2006 and future considerations. "We went into this time of year looking for a defenseman and a second-line center and we accomplished that," general manager Mike O'Con-ne- ll said. Nylander broke his leg during training camp and played his first game of the season last week. He was in the Boston lineup Thursday night against the New York Rangers. The veteran has twice scored 20 or more goals in a season ROUNDUP ASSOCIATED PRESS THE Gainey said. Dowd is making $700,000 and can and has at least 50 points in each of his last four seasons, including a care61 in 2001-0er-high with Chicago. "Nylander is something we've been looking for this year, someone to play behind Joe (Thornton) and provide another offensive punch," Bruins coach Mike Sullivan said. "We feel like now we have three legitimate lines who can provide offense for us." Nylander, making $2,675 million this season, can become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. He became the sixth Capitals veteran to be traded this season as the team slashes payroll Steve Konowalchuk (Colorado), Jaromir Jagr (Rangers), Peter Bondra (Ottawa), Robert Lang (Detroit) and Gonchar have been dealt since October. The Cahatiiens, seventh in the Eastern Conference, acquired Dowd for a fourth-roundraft pick, two days after getting talented right wing Alexei Kovalev from the Rangers. Dowd had four goals, 20 assists and 38 penalty minutes in 55 games with e Wild this season. On inthe jured reserve with a sprained knee, he's been out for a month but is expected to return sooa "Jim's style of play will be a good complement to our team and will help line.
