DALLAS -- Alex Chiasson is off to a fast start in the NHL. Bradley Zimmer Jersey . Chiasson scored the tiebreaking goal at 12:07 of the second period, and Dallas defeated the Washington Capitals 2-1 on Saturday night to give Lindy Ruff his first victory as coach of the Stars. It was the second goal this season for Chiasson, who has eight in nine career games. Still, the 23-year-old right wing said he doesnt think much about scoring goals. "I just play my game. Thats my main focus. As long as the team wins, thats all I care about," he said. Kari Lehtonen made 25 saves for Dallas, which stopped a Capitals flurry on a power play as the game ended. Alex Ovechkin scored in the first period for Washington. Erik Cole tied it 3:35 later. "We had lots of chances -- lots of crossbars and posts," Ovechkin said. Midway through the second, the Stars skated in 3-on-2 against goalie Braden Holtby. Cody Eakin took a shot and the rebound went out to Chiasson as he skated down the slot and beat Holtby. Before joining the Stars last April, Chiasson had 36 goals in 109 games at Boston University and 14 in 66 American Hockey League games. Dallas said he became the first NHL player to score eight or more goals through his first nine games since Rob Gaudreau in 1992-93, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. The only other active player who started as well was Anaheims Teemu Selanne. "He finds the right place," Ruff said. "He needs a little of that magic to rub off on the other guys." Ovechkins goal came on a power play 4:26 into the game when he took a pass from Mike Green in the left circle and one-timed the puck past Lehtonen. It was the fourth goal in three games this season for Ovechkin, who entered tied with teammate Mikhail Grabovski for the NHL scoring lead. The Capitals came in with a league-best 56 per cent success rate (5 for 9) on power plays. They were 1 for 3 against the Stars. "I thought we did a nice job on their power play," Ruff said. "Ovechkin just did what he does. He took a shot from a tough angle and he found a hole." About 3 1/2 minutes after that, Jamie Benn kept the puck in the Capitals end by shooting it around the boards behind the net. Tyler Seguin backhanded the puck behind him into the slot, where Cole beat Holtby. "I thought we looked really good in our zone, breaking out the puck and in the neutral zone coming back," Chiasson said. Seguins assist was part of an early payoff from the July trade that brought him and centre Rich Peverley to Dallas from the Boston Bruins. Peverley played for the first time since missing the preseason. He was diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat. But while he wasnt skating, he was watching. "I got to go through training camp and see (Ruffs) style. I think it fits this team well. Hes a puck-possession type of coach," Peverley said. The Stars did much better at possessing the puck than they had in their opening game against Florida on Thursday. They led 2-1 in the third period that night, but allowed 39 shots on Lehtonen and lost 4-2. The best chance for the Capitals came when they appeared to have a goal with 12 minutes left in the second period. The puck popped up behind Lehtonen and went into the net when Nicklas Backstrom made contact with the goalie. The play was ruled no goal on review because of goaltender interference. "I thought once the puck goes in there, youre allowed to go after it," Capitals coach Adam Oates said. And I didnt think (Backstrom) interfered with him. I think he touched the puck first and then the goalie." In the third period, Dallas allowed only five shots on goal. "Thats part of the deal," Oates said. "Youve got to try to wear them out, wait for your turn. We get a power play and you get a chance." Washingtons final power play lasted 36 seconds after Seguin was called for delay of game at 19:24. "We really didnt sit on (the puck). We had some great zone time, and didnt do anything foolish that would lose the game," Ruff said. NOTES: Peverley missed a chance for a power-play goal in the third period. He poked a rebound behind Holtby but off the left post. ... Capitals wing Joel Ward found himself unable to open the door of a mens room stall at the team hotel Saturday morning. He tweeted, "Stuck in the washroom ... someone help?" According to the Washington Post, teammates Karl Alzner and John Carlson found a ladder and helped Ward climb over the top of the door. B.J. Upton Jersey . The Tiger-Cats announced on Friday the linebacker has signed a new contract with the team through the 2016 season. Manny Ramirez Jersey . The moves were the first punitive steps taken by the Dolphins since a report on the NFLs investigation of the case was released last week. Investigators found that guard Richie Incognito and two teammates engaged in persistent harassment directed at tackle Jonathan Martin, another offensive lineman and an assistant trainer. http://www.indiansteamproshop.com/Indians-Erik-Gonzalez-Kids-Jersey/ . Leave it to Matt Niskanen, the newly proclaimed Eddie Haskell of the Washington Capitals.LONDON - Mesut Ozil scored a goal and created another in Arsenals emphatic 5-0 victory over Aston Villa on Sunday as the London club earned its biggest Premier League win this season.Olivier Giroud put the home side ahead in the eighth minute after a sublime backheel pass from Ozil sent the striker through on goal. With only Villa goalkeeper Brad Guzan to beat, Giroud chipped it over the onrushing American.Ozil doubled Arsenals lead in the 56th, finishing off a quick counterattack by slotting the ball into the low right corner in the midfielders first league start since returning from injury.Theo Walcott added a third and his first league goal of the season after exchanging passes with Santi Cazorla before firing inside the far post.The finish was great, but it is all about three points, Walcott said. Everyone, the whole crowd is buzzing (and) that happens when a team is at the top.It was Walcotts first league start since returning from a knee ligament injury sustained last season against north London rival Tottenham, which the Gunners face next weekend.Cazorla converted a penalty after substitute Chuba Akpom was fouled by Guzan, who got a hand to Cazorlas shot and nearly saved it, prompting the goalkeeper to kick a post after the penalty went in.Hector Bellerin scored a fifth in added time, side-footing from just outside the area after Cazorlas slick pass set up the right back.The resounding win was even more remarkable because it was accomplished without star player Alexis Sanchez, whoo was sidelined with a hamstring injury. Satchel Paige Jersey. It leaves the Gunners in fifth place, a point behind Manchester United.It was the first time Arsenal has won three consecutive league matches this season.We have maybe found a better consistency, manager Arsene Wenger said. Lets show we can win more.Ozil, who has been criticized by some sections of the Arsenal support, looked to have benefited the most from the win. He looked lively and creative, and threw his shirt to applauding fans in the stands before heading into the tunnel.Villa, on the other hand, struggled throughout to create chances and collapsed after Ozil scored.The disappointing thing was the second goal, manager Paul Lambert said. You cant lose the ball with 80 yards and then they score.The defeat left the club without a win in eight matches, and Villa is now in 16th place, just three points above the relegation zone. Villa has only scored one goal during the poor run of form, on Dec. 20 against Manchester United.The visitors had only two clear chances in the entire match, nearly equalizing as the first half was coming to a close, but Andreas Weimanns header was well-saved by Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina, who was once again preferred to Wojciech Szczesny. Ashley Westwood tested Ospina in the final action of the match with a strong shot that Ospina had to parry.New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who is considering a run for the White House, was sitting in the VIP box as part of a three-day visit to London. ' ' '
