GLENDALE, Ariz. – Defenseman Dennis Seidenberg scored 58 seconds into overtime Wednesday night to give the Boston Bruins a 2-1 victory against the Phoenix Coyotes.

Seidenberg’s shot from the middle of the rink at the blue line deflected off the stick of Coyotes defenseman Derek Morris and found its way between the pads of goalie Jason LaBarbera. It was Boston’s first win after regulation that wasn’t settled in a shootout.

The defending Stanley Cup champion Bruins have 11 wins of 13 games and 21 of 24 to move back on top of the Eastern Conference, one point ahead of the New York Rangers. Phoenix, which has dropped three straight, has won only 3 of 10.

David Krejci gave the Bruins a 1-0 lead 47 seconds into the game on the team’s first shot. Ray Whitney tied it with 4:44 left in the first period.

Krejci struck first with a quick wrist shot from the blue line that beat LaBarbera to the stick side.

The Bruins showed off a tight-checking game. Always around the puck, they limited the Coyotes to few good scoring opportunities, but Whitney connected.

Taking a pass from Daymond Langkow, Whitney, crashing down the slot, split defensemen Zdeno Chara and Johnny Boychuk and beat goalie Tuukka Rask to the glove side to tie it. The goal was Whitney’s third in three games. Langkow earned just his third point in 16 games.

Outshooting the Bruins 8-7 in the middle period, the Coyotes had two opportunities to break the deadlock.

During a power play, Keith Yandle set up Whitney across the blue line. Whitney got behind the defense but couldn’t get in position for a good shot.

Late in the period, defenseman David Schlemko’s drive from the right circle was stopped by Rask’s pads.

LaBarbera stopped 15 of 16 shots through two periods.

DEVILS 3, SABRES 1: Petr Sykora scored two goals to lead New Jersey at Newark, N.J.

Zach Parise also scored for the Devils, who built a 3-0 lead in the second period. Martin Brodeur made 22 saves and assisted on Sykora’s first goal. Patrik Elias helped set up both of Sykora’s goals.

Thomas Vanek scored for Buffalo, which received 20 saves from Ryan Miller.

Sykora opened the scoring with his ninth of the season 9:52 in. Brodeur sprung Sykora and Elias with a clearing pass up the middle. The veteran forwards weaved through the neutral zone before Elias dropped a pass between his legs for Sykora, who sent a soft shot that rolled in under Miller’s pads.

Sykora snapped a wrist shot over Miller’s glove 1:26 into the second period to double the Devils’ lead. Dainius Zubrus forced a turnover, and Elias set up Sykora for a one-timer with a perfect pass.

Luke Adam appeared to cut the Sabres’ deficit to 2-1 with a deflection at 5:28 of the second but the goal was disallowed after a video review showed that Adam struck the puck while his stick was above the crossbar.

Parise made it 3-0 at 6:55 when he tipped in Mark Fayne’s point shot. Vanek scored Buffalo’s goal.

CAPITALS 4, RANGERS 1: Alexander Semin scored twice, Troy Brouwer got the tie-breaking goal midway through the second period, and Washington won at home to halt New York’s five-game winning streak.

With the score 1-1, Brouwer got tangled with Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh in front of the net. Brouwer not only screened goalie Martin Biron but redirected John Carlson’s drive from the left point for his 10th goal of the season at 10:24.

PREDATORS 2, WILD 1: Colin Wilson scored the only goal in the shootout, and Nashville sent visiting Minnesota to its seventh straight loss.

Jonathon Blum scored from Wilson to give Nashville a 1-0 lead seven minutes into the third period. Dany Heatley tied it with 3:59 left in regulation.

KINGS 2, BLACKHAWKS 0: Jonathan Quick made 38 saves to earn his NHL-leading fifth shutout, and Trent Hunter and Jarret Stoll scored to lead Los Angeles at Chicago.

Quick was solid in earning his 19th NHL shutout, but he wasn’t heavily tested until the third period. The Blackhawks managed few prime scoring chances in the first two periods.
