Sweep Date: Wed, 11 Nov 92 11:08:11 EST Message-ID: HEADLINE: NHL ROUNDUP Lightning Completes N.Y. Sweep Publication Date: Tuesday November 10, 1992 BYLINE: Chris Kontos scored his 15th and 16th goals and Pat Jablonski made 32 saves Monday night as the Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the New York Rangers, 5-1, at New York. Kontos, a first-round draft choice of the Rangers in 1982, had never scored more than eight goals in an NHL season. He is second in NHL goal scoring to Pittsburgh's Mario Lemieux, who leads the league with 21. The Lightning, 3-0-1 in its last four games and 7-8-2 overall, completed a road sweep of the two New York teams, having beaten the Islanders, 6-5, in overtime Saturday night. Darren Turcotte scored for the Rangers with 3:30 left in the third period. Montreal 5, Calgary 2--Gilbert Dionne scored a goal and set up another at Montreal as the Canadiens extended their unbeaten streak to 11 games. The Canadiens are 10-0-1 during their streak, have won their last seven games and are unbeaten in nine home games. It is the Canadiens' longest run without a loss since they went undefeated in 15 games (13-0-2) from Feb. 17 to March 23, 1988. Mathieu Schneider, Vincent Damphousse, Guy Carbonneau and Patrice Brisebois also scored for Montreal (11-3-2). Toronto 3, Ottawa 1--Mike Foligno scored two power-play goals at Ottawa as the Maple Leafs moved into first place in the Norris Division. The Maple Leafs (8-5-2) are a point ahead of Chicago. Five of Toronto's eight victories have come against either first- or second-year expansion teams. Sylvain Turgeon scored for the Senators (1-13-1), who have earned only one point in the standings since winning their season opener 33 days ago.
