Selanne leads Ducks past Penguins

Teemu Selanne beat goalie Marc-Andre Fleury midway through the third period, and the Anaheim Ducks snapped the Pittsburgh Penguins' six-game winning streak at home with a 2-1 victory on Wednesday night.

Corey Perry scored his 28th goal, and Jonas Hiller made 25 saves for Anaheim, which won in Pittsburgh for the first time in 11 years by slowing Penguins star Evgeni Malkin.

The NHL's leading scorer was held pointless for the second time this month, and his eight-game goal streak at home ended, too. Jordan Staal scored for Pittsburgh.

Selanne's 19th goal of the season was the 656th of his career, moving him into a tie with Brendan Shanahan for 12th place on the NHL list.

Elsewhere: Tyler Seguin's shootout goal gave Boston a 4-3 victory over the Montreal Canadiens after the visiting Bruins squandered a two-goal lead in the third period. David Krejci sent a shot off the post on Boston's first attempt. Tim Thomas stopped Rene Bourque, Max Pacioretty, and Lars Eller for his 24th win. . . . Craig Anderson made 42 saves, six Ottawa players scored, and the Senators routed the Florida Panthers, 6-2, in Sunrise, Fla.

Ruutu out for 3 weeks

The team called up forward Jerome Samson from its AHL affiliate in Charlotte on an emergency basis to replace Ruutu.

Ruutu was injured in the first period of a 5-3 victory at Montreal on Monday night and did not return. He has a team-best 17 goals and is tied for second on the team with 30 points.
