Xander Boga WINNIPEG -- Tyler Seguin was relieved he and Dallas Stars teammate Jamie Benn finally had something good in common on Saturday afternoon. The pair ended pointless droughts when they each scored two goals in a 6-4 victory over the Winnipeg Jets that halted a two-game losing skid for the Stars (15-11-5). "I feel like I got my monkey off my back with him getting a couple," said Seguin, who also had a pair of assists. "Its nice to see. Sometimes things just arent going in, but he made some great shots tonight and stepped out at the right time." Seguin and Benn had been held pointless in their two previous games -- losses to Nashville and Chicago -- but Benn hadnt scored a goal since Nov. 14. Benn pretended to throw a monkey off his back after he finally scored his eighth goal of the season at 13:46 of the second period to give the Stars a 3-2 lead. Sergei Gonchar was a big help, tallying a career-high four assists. Rookie Valeri Nichushkin scored a goal. Centre Colton Sceviour netted his first NHL goal in his first game this season for the Stars, who only have four wins in their last 10 games. Kari Lehtonen, playing his 200th game for the Stars and 404th career NHL game, stopped 34 of the 38 shots he faced. Blake Wheeler had a pair of goals, Matt Halischuk also scored and Olli Jokinen added a goal and assist for Winnipeg (14-15-5), which is now winless in its last six home games. Their last victory at MTS Centre was Nov. 15 in a 3-2 shootout against Philadelphia. Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec was replaced by Al Montoya to start the third period. Pavelec stopped 19 of the 24 shots he faced. Montoya made seven saves on eight shots. Going into the game, Winnipeg, Dallas and Nashville were tied with 33 points at the bottom of the Central Division. However, Winnipeg has played three more games than Dallas and one more than the Predators, who host San Jose Saturday night. Winnipeg is now 3-11-3 against division opponents, while Dallass mark is 3-6-3. The Stars led 2-1 after the first period and 5-3 after the second on late power-play goals by Benn and Seguin one minute and three seconds apart. The goals were scored while Jets winger Anthony Peluso was off for a boarding major and a game misconduct. Peluso had hit defenceman Alex Goligoski into the boards. Goligoski left the ice with a towel against his right eye, but returned to the game. Dallas coach Lindy Ruff was far from impressed with the hit. "I thought the Peluso hit was a joke," Ruff said. "For a guy that plays that amount of time and runs a guy like Goligoski from behind. What does he play, three, four minutes a game? And hes going to run Goligoski from behind? Go run one of our bigger guys. "It was gutsy (of Goligoski) to come back. I mean, (he) cut him open. These are the hits we want to get rid of. I mean, lets get serious." Jets coach Claude Noel didnt have much to say about Pelusos hit. "Anytime you take a five-minute major, its never a good situation," Noel said. "It put us in a tough situation, especially (when) they scored two goals in there." He also pointed to two bad lines changes his team made that led to Seguin and Nichushkin being able to go in alone and score on Pavelec. Basically, his team didnt play "intelligent," Noel said. Wheelers goals tied the game 2-2 and 3-3, but his frustration spilled out after the loss. "What I say doesnt matter. Its what you do out on the ice," Wheeler said. "You can blow smoke as much as you want in the media. Weve been blowing smoke for three years, everyone, myself. "Everyone thats stood in front of the microphone the last three years, theyve said the same (stuff). What do you want me to say? Thats about it. I dont know what else to say." But he did elaborate when asked where the game turned. "In the first period, we were terrible and thats inexcusable," Wheeler said. And even though they fought back and were down 5-3 heading into the third, the Jets gave up two-on-ones and breakaways, he noted. "Its embarrassing," Wheeler said. "Its just no respect for each other. (Montoya) goes in there, hes cold, and thats what we do? "Its like, you just cant believe it." Jokinen finished the scoring at 18:19 when he got a stick on a rebound in traffic in front of the net.

BOSTON -- The Baltimore Orioles did plenty to hurt their chances despite Chris Davis team-record 51st homer. The best fielding team in the majors committed three errors, Scott Feldman walked a season-high six batters and they had to face Boston closer Koji Uehara, who had retired his previous 37 hitters. But Danny Valencia ended that streak with a triple to lead off the ninth, Matt Wieters hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly and the Orioles beat the Red Sox 3-2 on Tuesday night to stay two games behind in the AL wild-card race. "They were real frustrated that we didnt make a couple of plays that we normally made," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said, "but the bullpen was really good. Scotty bent but didnt break. "You dont like your chances there with Koji, but we got a big hit from Danny." Despite the loss, Bostons magic number to clinch the AL East dropped to three when Tampa Bay lost to Texas 7-1. The Orioles overcame a 2-0 deficit on Brian Roberts run-scoring groundout in the fifth and Davis homer in the sixth that tied the score 2-2 and broke the club record set by Brady Anderson in 1996. "Im excited," Davis said. "Ive said it all along. When youre hitting homers and your teams not winning it feels like its kind of for nothing. So I was obviously glad to tie the game." The homer came off starter Ryan Dempster, who allowed three hits in six innings. "He just lifted that ball and got it up in the air -- way, way, way up in the air -- and it just kept carrying," Dempster said. Uehara (4-1) fell four outs short of Bobby Jenks major league record for a reliever of 41 consecutive retired batters set in 2007 and Mark Buehrles mark for all pitchers of 45 in 2009. The run was the first off Uehara in 30 2-3 innings and ended a streak of 27 scoreless outings since July 9. "I wasnt aware of it," Valencia said, "but Im not surprised by it because hes got great stuff." Valencia led off the ninth with a triple to centre and pinch-runner Alexi Casilla scored easily on Wieters fly to right. Tommy Hunter (6-4) got the win with a perfect eighth. Jim Johnson got hhis AL-best 46th save.dddddddddddd "Kojis been so good for us," Boston manager John Farrell said. "Even after the run allowed, he continued to pitch as he has. It didnt faze him and he finished out the inning. The Red Sox managed just three hits, a leadoff homer by Dustin Pedroia in the first, a double by Mike Carp in the second and a single by Jarrod Saltalamacchia with one out in the ninth. The Orioles threatened in the eighth when Nate McLouth singled and took third on Manny Machados AL-leading 51st double with no outs. But Craig Breslow replaced Brandon Workman and needed just six pitches to get out of the jam. With the infield in, he got Davis and Adam Jones to ground out to shortstop Stephen Drew as the runners held then retired Nick Markakis on a fly to left. The Red Sox took a 1-0 lead on Pedroias ninth homer of the season. Left fielder McLouth didnt even move as it went deep into the seats above the Green Monster. They made it 2-0 in the fourth with the help of two errors by a team that had made just 43 all year. With one out and third baseman Machado playing in short right field on the shift for Saltalamacchia, he charged a hard grounder and let it get by him for an error. Drew then walked before a double steal put runners at second and third. Xander Bogaerts followed with a low liner to left field that McLouth charged. The ball hit off his glove for an error and Saltalamacchia scored. Bogaerts was credited with a sacrifice fly. Machado made a throwing error in the seventh on a grounder down the line by Pedroia. The Orioles made it 2-1 in the fifth when Valencia walked, took third on a double by J.J. Hardy and scored on a groundout by Roberts.

Baltimores total of errorless games remained at 113, tied with Houstons total in 2008 for the most since 1900. ...
