ST. PAUL, Minnesota: Minnesota's Zach Parise and Jason Pominville scored in the shootout to give the Wild a 2-1 win over Toronto on Wednesday, moving within two points of the Central Division lead.

In the day's other games, Philadelphia edged Pittsburgh for their third-straight win and Dallas had a comfortable victory over Edmonton.

Minnesota's Parise tied the game late in the third period, sending the Wild to a shootout for the third-straight game, and they made it five wins from six games.

Mason Raymond scored a power-play goal for Toronto, which has scored just three regulation goals over its past four outings.

Philadelphia's Brayden Schenn scored twice and backup goalie Ray Emery stopped 30 shots to lead the Flyers to a 2-1 victory over Pittsburgh.

Schenn opened the scoring late in the first period and got the tiebreaker late in the second.

Penguins captain Sidney Crosby scored his ninth goal of the season, and first in eight games but the Penguins went down to a third-straight loss.

Flyers 2, Penguins 1: In Pittsburgh, Brayden Schenn scored two goals and backup goalie Ray Emery stopped 30 shots to lead the Philadelphia Flyers in a 2-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins for their third straight victory.

Schenn, who had a goal and an assist during Philadelphia’s 5-0 win against Ottawa the previous night, opened the scoring late in the first period and got the tiebreaker late in the second. Emery got the start one night after Steve Mason shut out the Senators.

Penguins captain Sidney Crosby scored his ninth goal of the season, and first in eight games. Marc-Andre Fleury made 19 saves for Pittsburgh, which has lost three straight for the second time this season.

Stars 3, Oilers 0: In Edmonton, Kari Lehtonen only needed to make 22 saves to record his 23rd career shutout as the Dallas Stars defeated the struggling Edmonton Oilers 3-0.

Rich Peverley, Antoine Roussel and Tyler Seguin scored for the Stars (9-7-2), who have won four of their last five games.

The woes continue for the Oilers (4-14-2), who have lost four in a row and gone 1-8-1 in their last 10 to slip to second last in the NHL.

It was the third consecutive home game the Oilers have been shut out, setting an unfortunate new franchise-worst record. Edmonton has only scored two goals in its last five home games.
