Last update: January 24, 2008 - 12:16 AM

• DETROIT 2, ANAHEIM 1: Dominik Hasek made 24 saves, and Brian Rafalski and Valtteri Filppula scored as lead the league-best Red Wings edged the defending Stanley Cup champion Ducks at Anaheim, Calif. Detroit won its ninth road game in the last 10.

• TORONTO 3, WASHINGTON 2: Mats Sundin's goal with 29.2 seconds left lifted the Maple Leafs over the Capitals on Wednesday night in Toronto. Alexander Ovechkin got his league-best 39th goal for Washington.

• VANCOUVER 3, ST. LOUIS 2 (SO): Daniel Sedin scored in the shootout to complete the Canucks' first third-period comeback this season and end a seven-game winless skid as they beat the visiting Blues.

NOTES

• Atlanta forward Ilya Kovalchuk was suspended for one game without pay for a hit from behind on Rangers defenseman Michal Rozsival. The suspension will keep the Thrashers star out of the rematch tonight in New York and cost Kovalchuk $34,224.60.

• Buoyed by higher ratings, Versus has agreed to carry NHL games through the 2010-11 season.
