Preview: Bruins (12-8) at Blue Jackets (6-11)

Date: November 21, 2014 7:00 PM EDT

The Boston Bruins are due for a big offensive night, even if they're content winning the way they have in the last two games.

That outburst could come Friday night in a visit to the Columbus Blue Jackets, one of the worst defensive teams in hockey, as Boston goes for a seventh straight win in the series.

The Bruins (12-8-0) are also trying to win for an eighth time in 10 games, though they've scored six goals in their last four.

They've limited opponents to 21 goals in the last nine despite a sloppy stretch last week of 11 goals allowed in consecutive losses. The other seven games have been more of what the Bruins have come to expect of themselves defensively in recent seasons with at most two goals allowed

Tuesday's 2-0 win over St. Louis was the latest, and it came despite being outshot 33-17.

That was to an extent by design after building a two-goal lead entering the third and working to keep the Blues' shots coming from the outside to make things relatively easy on Tuukka Rask.

"For the most part we kept things tight and played a good game," said Rask, who was coming off another 33-save effort in Saturday's 2-1 win over Carolina. "Whenever we play defense like that and keep them on the outside for the most part, it makes my job easier and I expect to make those saves. That was my job."

It was Rask's first shutout after leading the NHL a season ago with seven. Something of a slow start for the reigning Vezina Trophy winner has given way to a 6-1-0 stretch this month with a 1.86 goals-against average. He's also won four straight starts against the Blue Jackets (6-11-1) with a 1.14 GAA.

Maintaining defensive consistency could become tougher after the Bruins learned Wednesday they'll be without Adam McQuaid for six to eight weeks with a broken thumb suffered against the Blues.

They could also be without fellow defenseman Dougie Hamilton, who has missed practice time this week with the flu. Forward Brad Marchand remains day to day with an undisclosed ailment after missing Tuesday's game.

With Marchand out, Patrice Bergeron scored for a second straight game. The center has four goals and five assists in eight games this month.

Milan Lucic has been limited to one goal on the Bruins' 7-2-0 run, but he has four goals and three assists in his last four games against Columbus.

The Bruins have won the last six meetings with the Blue Jackets, including a three-game sweep a season ago with four goals allowed. Boston is 5-1-2 all time in Columbus.

The Blue Jackets had shown signs of life with consecutive wins over the weekend following a nine-game losing streak, then promptly regressed in Tuesday's 5-0 home loss to Detroit.

They're allowing an Eastern Conference-worst 3.56 goals per game, including an average of 4.33 while losing five of six at home. Three goals came in the final 20 minutes against the Red Wings, which has been a consistent problem with 40.6 percent of the goals they've conceded coming in the third.

"Sometimes you are playing from behind and that can be part of it, but there've been games where it's been 2-2 going into the third period, like Dallas and Ottawa twice," coach Todd Richards told the team's official website. "It's not just games where we're trailing. ... It's just us not managing the third period."

Sergei Bobrovsky has a 3.62 GAA in his last five starts and is 0-2-1 with a 2.24 GAA against Boston.

Preview: Devils (8-9) at Oilers (6-11)

Date: November 21, 2014 9:30 PM EDT

A persistent lack of offense has returned the New Jersey Devils to their losing ways in the past two games. A matchup with the defensively challenged Edmonton Oilers might be a good opportunity for them to start putting an end to the problem.

The Devils look to avoid a third straight loss and second in a row on their four-game Canadian trip when they face the Oilers on Friday night.

New Jersey (8-9-2) has totaled 14 goals in its last eight games. The Devils followed up a four-game skid Nov. 4-10 by winning their next two, but scored three in dropping the two after that. They opened their trip with a 3-1 loss to Winnipeg on Tuesday

Patrik Elias cut the deficit to 2-1 early in the third, but the Jets held a 34-22 shot advantage - 23-9 in the first two periods - as New Jersey was outshot for a fourth straight game.

The Devils are averaging 2.42 goals and 26.3 shots, both among the lowest marks in the NHL, and they've scored four goals in the past three contests.

"We had like a couple of waves in the second and a couple in the third, but over the course of the game, I would think they felt pretty comfortable and not threatened, and that's not a good thing," forward Mike Cammalleri said.

"I didn't think we created enough clean plays maybe coming up the ice out of our zone to get our legs going enough to push their wave of defense back. That made it hard for us to have puck time there."

Cory Schneider tied the Devils record with his 19th consecutive start and made 31 saves. He can break Martin Brodeur's mark set in 2001-02 on Friday.

Schneider is 5-2-0 with a 1.82 goals-against average in nine career games - seven starts - against Edmonton, dating to his time with Vancouver.

The Oilers' losing streak reached four with a 5-4 home loss to the Canucks on Wednesday. Edmonton tied it twice after falling behind 2-0, the second time early in the third period, but allowed Yannick Weber's winner midway through the final 20 minutes.

The Oilers looked as if they had tied it once more with 10 seconds left, but the goal was waved off when it was ruled that David Perron had kicked the puck off the goaltender's blocker into the net.

Steven Pinizzotto, Teddy Purcell, Boyd Gordon and Andrew Ference scored, while Ben Scrivens made 26 stops for Edmonton, which held a 32-31 shot advantage, including 13-6 in the third.

"We've been inconsistent and we haven't been able to find a way to push the game the other way," Gordon said. "Until we do that, we are going to have a tough time winning games."

At 6-11-2, Edmonton's 14 points are the fewest in the Western Conference. It's gone 2-7-1 in its past 10 contests.

Defense has been the biggest issues for the Oilers, who are giving up 3.37 goals per game - among the worst marks in the league.

"The guys who have to be critical for us right through our lineup, the forwards and some of our D, they weren't there," coach Dallas Eakins said. "They showed sparks of coming, but for whatever reason they couldn't get it done. The guys we rely on less played well."

New Jersey has gone 3-0-1 in the past four meetings, though the Oilers took the most recent matchup in Edmonton 5-4 in a shootout Oct. 7, 2013.

NHL roundup: Stars extend Spezza for four years

The Dallas Stars signed center Jason Spezza to a four-year contract extension Friday.

Terms were not disclosed, but TSN reported the deal is worth $30 million.

Spezza, 31, has posted 18 points (four goals, 14 assists) in 20 games during his first season with the Stars. His 14 assists are tied for ninth in the league and first on the team.

On Nov. 8 against San Jose, Spezza appeared in his 700th game and recorded his 700th point. He became just the second player to do that, joining Ilya Kovalchuk, who was selected first overall in Spezza's 2001 draft class.

In 706 regular season games, Spezza has posted 705 points (255 goals, 450 assists).

"Jason is a world-class player and his commitment to the organization is a reflection of what we are building in Dallas," general manager Jim Nill said in a statement. "The professionalism and production he brings to our group is key for our success moving forward and we value the leadership he brings to our team."

Prior to joining the Stars, the forward spent 11 seasons with the Ottawa Senators, where he departed the organization ranking sixth all-time in games played (686) and was second in goals (251), assists (436) and points (687).

---The San Jose Sharks acquired defenseman Brenden Dillon from the Dallas Stars in exchange for defenseman Jason Demers and a third-round selection in the 2016 NHL draft.

Dillon, 24, had one assist and 26 penalty minutes in 20 games with the Stars this season. He had 26 points (nine goals, 17 assists) and 174 penalty minutes in 149 games since signing with Dallas in 2011.

Demers, 26, tallied three assists in 20 games for San Jose this season. The six-year veteran had played in 300 games with San Jose since being drafted in the seventh round in 2008.

---The Chicago Blackhawks placed forward Patrick Sharp on long-term injured reserve.

Sharp suffered a right leg injury against the Montreal Canadiens on Nov. 6. He has three goals and six assists in 13 games with Chicago this season. The Thunder Bay, Ontario, native led the Blackhawks with 78 points (34 goals, 44 assists) last season.

The Blackhawks also recalled forward Phillip Danault from the Rockford IceHogs of the American Hockey League.

---The Toronto Maple Leafs loaned forward David Booth to the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League for conditioning purposes.

Booth, 29, has not played in a regular-season game with the Maple Leafs so far this season. The Michigan native suffered a broken foot after blocking a shot during a preseason game against the Buffalo Sabres on Sept. 28.

Booth has registered 218 points (113 goals, 105 assists) in 443 NHL games.

Booth was expected to join the Marlies for their game on the road Friday night against Hamilton.

---The Vancouver Canucks recalled defenseman Frank Corrado from Utica of the American Hockey League.

Corrado, 21, has appeared in 11 games for Utica this season, recording two goals, one assist and 13 penalty minutes.

Corrado appeared in 15 games for the Canucks last season, collecting one goal. He played in 59 games for Utica, tallying 17 points (six goals, 11 assists) and 46 penalty minutes.

---The Los Angeles Kings received salary cap relief from the NHL to help them through the indefinite suspension of defenseman Slava Voynov.

Voynov was charged with felony spousal abuse and arrested on Oct. 20. He is scheduled for a Dec. 1 appearance with the Los Angeles County district attorney's office.

The Kings were unable to recall players from the minors to replace anyone who was injured because of salary-cap constrictions.

With Voynov's $4.167 million salary no longer counting against the Kings' salary cap, they will now have the flexibility to fill roster spots.

---The Buffalo Sabres' game against the New York Rangers, postponed Friday night because of the severe weather conditions in Buffalo this week, was rescheduled for Feb. 20 at 7 p.m. in the First Niagara Center.

To accommodate the scheduling change, the NHL announced that the Sabres' game scheduled for Feb. 20 against the Ottawa Senators was moved to Dec. 15.

The Sabres' next regularly scheduled game is Saturday night in Washington against the Capitals
