NEW YORK (AP) - A person familiar with the deal says the New

game and outdueled Roy Oswalt.

UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) - Sidney Crosby finished the regular season

last night. Evgeni Malkin complemented Crosby's big game with two
goals and two assists.
PHOENIX (AP) - Pitcher Edwin Jackson hit the first homer of his
career, capping a 13-run burst in the fourth inning that sent the

that featured eight hits, including two by Jackson. Chris Snyder
homered for Arizona.
ALTOONA, Pa. (AP) - Top Washington Nationals prospect Stephen
Strasburg has won his minor league debut, allowing four hits and
four runs with eight strikeouts and two walks over five innings for

affiliate Altoona.

Great game between the Rangers and Flyers! It was exciting to see this come down to a shootout to decide the last playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Lundqvist really kept the Rangers in this game though. Additionally, Philadelphia hit the posts and crossbar so many times. They could have easily scored four or five goals!
