Palmieri became the fourth player in NHL history to score multiple goals in at
least three straight games to start a season, joining Patrick Marleau
(2012-13), Peter Stastny (1982-83) and Cy Denneny (1917-18). He scored on a
five-on-three in the second period and added a goal in the first minute of the
third.
Jean-Sebastien Dea got the game-winner shortly after Palmieri's second goal,
and Kinkaid did the rest, finishing with 37 saves. Joe Pavelski and Timo Meier
scored the goals for the Sharks.
Ducks 3, Blues 2
Andrew Cogliano scored a power-play goal with 5:16 remaining to break a tie,
and Ryan Miller had 29 saves to lead Anaheim to a victory at St. Louis.
Cogliano swatted in a centering pass by Ryan Kesler from the left corner past
St. Louis goaltender Chad Johnson's stick side for his first goal of the
season. It was his 100th goal as a member of the Ducks.
Jakob Silfverberg and Ben Street also scored goals for Anaheim. Miller got the
win in his first start of the season. Alexander Steen and Tyler Bozak scored
for the Blues.
Jets 3, Hurricanes 1
Bryan Little scored with 2:09 remaining to break a tie as host Winnipeg dealt
Carolina its first regulation loss of the season.
Josh Morrissey assisted on the winning goal, which was Little's first goal of
the season. Kyle Connor added an empty-net goal with one second remaining. The
outcome increased Winnipeg's home-ice winning streak to 11 games, a stretch
that extends to last season.
All the game's scoring came in the third period. Patrik Laine scored
Winnipeg's first goal. Micheal Ferland responded for the Hurricanes. Winnipeg
goalie Laurent Brossoit, making his season debut, recorded 42 saves.
Hurricanes goalie Petr Mrazek stopped 23 shots.
