Flyers' Lupul has 6-point game

Joffrey Lupul notched a hat trick and had 6 points, and R.J. Umberger matched him with 3 goals to snap Philadelphia's five-game winless skid at home and lift the Flyers to an 8-2 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night.

Lupul had the first 6-point game for a Flyer since Eric Lindros on March 1, 1997, against Toronto.

The Flyers improved to 3-0 this season against their Atlantic Division rival, a needed turnaround after an 0-8 mark against the Penguins last year. The Flyers also won their first home game since they beat the Islanders on Nov. 12 to improve to 6-0 at the Wachovia Center.

Sidney Crosby assisted on both goals for the Penguins, who ended a four-game winning streak. Ryan Whitney and Petr Sykora scored goals in the first period that tied the score at 2-2.

Mike Knuble and Braydon Coburn scored goals in the third period for the Flyers.

The Flyers scored 5 goals against goalie Dany Sabourin before he was yanked for Ty Conklin to start the third.

Flames 2, Panthers 1 (SO): Jarome Iginla scored with 10.2 seconds left to send the game to overtime, and Calgary went on to beat host Florida in a shootout.

Kristian Huselius, a former Panthers player, scored the only goal in the shootout.

Meanwhile, Calgary goalie Miikka Kiprusoff stopped Nathan Horton, Olli Jokinen and Stephen Weiss, all of whom tried to beat him with a deke.

Jokinen scored the only goal for the Panthers.

Lightning 3, Canadiens 2 (SO): Brad Richards scored in the shootout, and Tampa Bay handed host Montreal its sixth straight home loss.

Marc Denis stopped Tomas Plekanec, Andrei Kostitsyn and Saku Koivu after turning aside 29 shots during the game to claim his first win of the season.

Plekanec brought the sold-out Bell Centre crowd of 21,273 to life with 4:38 remaining when he tied it at 2-2, beating Denis with a shot from the slot for his 10th goal. Alex Kovalev also scored for Montreal.
