PHILADELPHIA -- It didnt take the Philadelphia Flyers too long to even their record after an awful start. Matt Read scored two goals, Steve Mason made 36 saves, and the streaking Flyers beat the New York Islanders 5-2 on Saturday night. The Flyers are 10-10-2 after their sixth win in seven games. They are 6-0-1 in that span and 9-3-2 since a 1-7 start. "When we were 1-7, one of our goals was to get to .500," Read said. "We have to continue to build off this and keep going." Claude Giroux, Wayne Simmonds and Brayden Schenn also had goals for Philadelphia. The Flyers fired coach Peter Laviolette after three straight losses to open the season. Craig Berube took over and went 1-4 before getting things turned around. "Its a great effort by the players," Berube said. "Theyve listened, they believed, they bought in and they work hard." John Tavares and Eric Boulton scored for the Islanders, who have lost eight of 10, including all three games on their road trip. "As coaches, if we were looking at it and it was structurally or systematically, we would change it for sure," Islanders coach Jack Capuano said. "When you talk about battle level or when you talk about protecting the wall and not protecting the danger area, that to me, you dont change that, thats hockey. Theres nothing you can do about that. "You have to win your battles. Weve played many systems since Ive been here, but systems dont work unless you battle. Im not faulting on the battle level tonight, but a couple of plays we broke down because we were on the wrong side of the puck." After scoring just 22 goals in their first 15 games, the Flyers have 26 in the last seven. They netted their first three goals against the Islanders in a bunch. Read and Simmonds scored 59 seconds apart to put the Flyers ahead 2-0 early in the second period. Giroux made it three goals in 3:02 for a 3-0 lead. "Were playing better, but we have a long way to go," Giroux said. "Everybody is contributing. Its a lot more fun." Read scored his third goal in two games with a slap shot from the slot off passes from Sean Couturier and Steve Downie. The trio, the Flyers third line, has combined for 13 points in three games. "They work hard as a line, they dont get out of position and they play the system to a tee," Berube said. Simmonds then took a pass from Vincent Lecavalier on a rush up ice and wristed a shot that beat goalie Kevin Poulin to the short side over his glove. Giroux scored a power-play goal with a one-timer from the left circle off a behind-the-back pass from Simmonds. That goal ended Poulins night. He was lifted for Anders Nilsson. After the Islanders got within 3-2, Schenn scored with 7:39 left to give the Flyers a two-goal cushion. Schenn lifted a shot over Nilssons glove just under the crossbar. Read scored an empty-net goal in the final minute to seal it. Despite playing their second game in two nights, the Islanders -- following Fridays loss at Pittsburgh -- made the Flyers look like a tired team in the third period. "The second half of the game, I think we were the better team," Nilsson said. "I think as long as we can play like that for the full 60 minutes then we can win some more hockey games." Tavares scored on a backhander off a perfect pass from Thomas Vanek to cut it to 3-1 late in the second. It was just the second even-strength goal allowed by the Flyers in seven games. Boulton scored his first goal in 73 games to get the Islanders within one goal 2:39 into the third. Boulton was alone in front when the puck trickled through off a faceoff, and he backhanded it past Mason. Tavares had a chance to tie it a few minutes later but Mason made the save. The Islanders had several chances before Berube called a timeout and calmed his team down. "We were on our heels, but we did what we needed to do to get the win," Berube said.

EDMONTON -- The Edmonton Oilers went from hitting rock bottom to making another team feel just as bad in fairly rapid fashion. Taylor Hall had a goal and two assists as Edmonton snapped a season-high six-game losing skid, exploding for a 6-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday night. Jordan Eberle, David Perron, Sam Gagner, Nail Yakupov and Jeff Petry also scored for the Oilers (12-24-3), who were lambasted by their coach and fans after a 6-0 loss to the St. Louis Blues on Saturday, the third time in five games they were shut out. "Overall, it was a way better game than we had against St. Louis," Hall said. "We had a way better start and we seemed to carry that over into the rest of the game. "Thats been our Kryptonite. It seems to be when we get a good start and they get a goal or they tie it up and we kind of get off the rails, but that wasnt the case tonight, we just kept it going." Perron said a convincing win was just what the Oilers needed after they were outscored 24-6 during their losing streak. "Certainly its one that we needed after last game," he said. "We feel what the fans are going through right now and we need them to be behind us and we have to play that way every night." Yakupov said he hopes that the team has learned its lesson and can be stronger coming back from the holiday break. "Its a huge win for us," he said. "I think everyone is excited in the locker-room and in Edmonton. Its a pretty good feeling before Christmas. And after Christmas were going to show more and more wins. We have to show better hockey than weve shown in the past." Mark Stuart and Andrew Ladd responded for the Jets (16-18-5), who have lost two in a row and have gone 3-6-1 in their last 10 games. "Its the same old crap game after game," Ladd said. "Frustrating doesnt begin to describe it. We know what it is, we talk about it all the time. We do the same things over and over. "We need to figure out a way to play consistently, whatever that takes. Im sure that the coaches will spend this time trying to figure that out and as players we have to refresh and make sure we are coming back pissed off and ready to go." Jets head coach Claude Noel was just as frustrated as his players. "We didnt play very intelligent," he said. "We didnt play the right way. We knew this game could get out of hand if we played the way we played. We got pretty much what we deserved playing that way. "This leaves you in a sour position. We will reflect over the break and go from there. There are certain ways you have to play to win games. We know that, but we just arent willing to play like that game in and game out." Winnipeg had a chance to start the scoring sevenn minutes into the first period as Evander Kane had a partial break after jumping out of the penalty box, but was stopped by Oilers starter Ilya Bryzgalov.dddddddddddd. Edmonton got on the board a minute and a half later on another power-play opportunity as Ales Hemsky made a long pass through traffic that Eberle deflected past Jets goalie Ondrej Pavalec. Winnipeg tied the game up 11 minutes into the opening frame as Stuart sent a low wrist shot through Bryzgalovs legs from near the face-off dot. The Oilers regained the lead with four minutes remaining when Eberle sent a puck from behind the goal-line to a hard-charging Gagner in front of the net. The Jets made it 2-2 nine minutes into the second period on the power play as Dustin Byfuglien duffed on his point shot and broke his stick, but it got close enough to the net for Ladd to deflect past the Oilers goalie. Edmonton retook the lead with just over three minutes left in the second period on an innocent looking play as Hall sent a seeing-eye-dog pass to the front of the net that Perron batted in on the backhand for his team-leading 15th goal of the season. The Oilers went up 4-2 four-and-a-half minutes into the third as Nail Yakupov got a pass through to a pinching Petry and he beat Pavelec for his first goal in 27 games. Edmonton got an insurance goal on the power play with 11 minutes left as Ryan Nugent-Hopkins made a nice play to swat a clearing attempt out of the air and feed it to Hall at the side of the net for his 14th goal of the year. The Oilers equalled the total of six goals they had scored during their entire losing streak with four minutes left in the third as the Oilers broke out on a two-on-one with Hall unselfishly setting Yakupov up for just the sixth goal of the season for the 2012 first overall draft pick. A melee ensued after that goal and the Oilers ended up with a five-on-three advantage for the remainder of the game, but couldnt add to their goal total. "We were embarrassing ourselves out there," said Stuart of his teams sour mood late in the game. "God, Id hope you would show some emotion out there at that time or you have some real issues. "Write whatever you want and dont take it easy on us because we dont deserve it." Notes: It was the second of three games between the two teams. The Jets beat the Oilers 5-4 on Oct. 1 during Edmontons home-opener at Rexall Placea The Jets were without forwards Matt Halischuk (forearm) and Jim Slater (sports hernia) and defenceman Paul Postma (blood clot)a Out for the Oilers were defenceman Philip Larsen (illness) and forwards Mark Arcobello (rib) and Ryan Jones, who was knocked unconscious during the morning skate on Saturday after colliding with captain Andrew Ference.
