[lw789]

Injuries looked to be catching up to the Winnipeg Jets, as they suffered their first regulation road loss in nearly two months their last time out. The Jets have gotten that same result in most of their recent visits to Los Angeles, but theyll face a Kings team thats struggled of late Saturday night. Winnipeg has received some good news on the injury front. After getting defenseman Zach Bogosian back from a lower-body injury on Thursday, the Jets also announced today that defencemen Toby Enstrom and Mark Stuart and winger Evander Kane have been activated from injured reserve. All three are eligible to return tonight. Listen to the action live on TSN Radio 1290 Winnipeg at 8pm ct/9pm et. Winnipeg (20-14-7) has dropped four of five and saw its 5-0-3 road point streak snapped with Thursdays 4-1 loss to Arizona, during which it allowed three power-play goals in five chances. I think, right now, we are a little bit up and down, goaltender Ondrej Pavelec said. Its not going to be easy. Were going to L.A. and Anaheim (on Sunday). We play them back to back. We have some tough games in front of us. Winnipeg has been outscored 33-18 in losing six of seven visits to Los Angeles, falling 4-1 on Oct. 12 for its third straight defeat there in the teams only matchup this season. The Jets have dropped three in a row overall to the Kings (19-13-9) and are 2-6-1 against the Pacific Division. Their next Pacific matchup comes against a Los Angeles team thats 1-2-2 in its last five. The Kings have opened a six-game homestand with back-to-back defeats, falling 4-3 to the New York Rangers on Thursday. In the teams first meeting since the Stanley Cup finals, Los Angeles allowed the Rangers to score four unanswered goals to erase a 2-0 lead. Los Angeles has allowed 11 goals in its past two games, its highest total in a span of that length since giving up 13 on Dec. 29 and 30, 2010. Four goals against yet again, for a team that prides itself on defense, is something inexcusable, forward Justin Williams said. Its something weve tried to clean up, and something we need to continue to do, because were not going to win games giving up chances like that. Like Winnipeg, Los Angeles has struggled on the penalty kill lately, allowing four goals in the last seven chances. We seem to be in a funk, especially killing penalties, Williams said. Its not for a lack of trying. The guys are working their tails off, but ... thats a down for us now. The Kings have also had plenty of trouble on the power play recently, going 0 for 4 on Thursday to leave them at 0 for 7 in the last two and 2 for 16 in the past five. Anze Kopitar has scored three goals in the last two games against Winnipeg. He has four assists in his past two contests overall.

The Rangers needed 58 minutes to get ahead -- and then spent the final two holding on. Rick Nash snapped a tie with 1:58 left, and the Rangers sent the Stars to their fifth straight loss, 3-2 on Friday night. New York is 7-2-1 in its last 10, but more importantly, the Rangers followed up their stirring win at Chicago on Wednesday with another one at home. "We talked about it this morning," said Henrik Lundqvist, who made 24 saves to earn his second straight win. "Its always a great feeling when you come up big in the end of a game." Nash poked a rebound of Chris Kreiders shot past goalie Kari Lehtonen to give New York its first lead. Nash has 10 goals this season and three in three games. "I think it was 50 per cent luck ... well, probably 70 per cent luck and 30 per cent skill," Nash said of his 50th game-winner. "I was just following the puck. It went a little bit higher than anticipated, but luckily it went in." Ryan Callahan and Derick Brassard both erased one-goal Rangers deficits, and Brad Richards had two assists to extend his point streak to four games (two goals, four assists). Ryan Garbutt and Cody Eakin both had a goal and assist, but the Stars remained winless in 2014. Lehtonen stopped 31 shots for Dallas, which went 0-3 on its three-game trip through the New York metropolitan area. "I thought we skated better," Stars coach Lindy Ruff said. "I thought we created a little bit more and I thought we were better with the puck. We still have a ways to go, though." After being shut out for the first time this season in a 1-0 loss at New Jersey on Thursday, the Stars got their offence on track early -- grabbing the lead 4:06 in on Eakins ninth goal. Garbutt outraced Rangers defenceman Marc Staal to a loose puck deep in the New York end and sent a pass back to Eakin in the right circle. Eakin let go a shot that Lundqvist blocked with his arm, but couldnt control as it found its way in. Dallas had the lead despite being outshot 8-3 at the time in the sluggish firrst period that featured multiple icings and frequent faceoffs.dddddddddddd New York tied it with 8:40 left in the period on Callahans eighth of the season and first in five games since the Rangers captain returned from a nine-game absence caused by a sprained knee ligament. Benoit Pouliot kept the puck in the Dallas zone at the right point and got it to Richards, who took a shot. Richards got to his rebound and moved the puck to his right to the streaking Callahan, who snapped in a drive as he was flying to the ice. Dallas regained the lead 3:34 into the second on Garbutts eighth goal. Antoine Roussel sent a pass that Garbutt knocked down with the shaft of his stick. He then jammed the puck between Lundqvists pads. However, the Rangers tied it 2-2 just 4:48 later when Brassard scored a power-play goal on the games first advantage. Mats Zuccarello sent a hard shot from above the right circle into the slot where Brassard deflected it past Lehtonen for his seventh of the season and fifth on the power play. "I didnt do much. I just shot it. All the credit to him," Zuccarello said of Brassard. "If its there, its there. If its not there, its not there. "I just shot it. He made a really nice tip. Its a skill play by him." The Rangers, who swept the two-game season series from Dallas, have scored a power-play goal in nine of the past 12 games. "When a power play works, it keeps the other team honest because they dont want to see the power play on the ice," Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. "Our power play has been working real well for us. Its been giving us momentum, its been giving us timely goals." New York had other scoring chances in the second, including several scrums in front of the net, but couldnt convert. Nash shot wide on a breakaway, and Richards struck the crossbar with a drive.
