It was a performance Martin Biron will never forget, and he even intends to someday brag a bit about the ramifications of his third straight shutout.

Biron set the Buffalo Sabres' record for shutout minutes at 201 minutes, 12 seconds, breaking Dominik Hasek's mark of 178:33.

"When Dom goes into the Hall of Fame, I'll be able to put it on my wall saying as a Buffalo Sabre I beat his team record," Biron said after a 4-0 home victory over Toronto on Friday night.

He has not given up a goal since Saku Koivu beat him 3:48 into the third period Jan. 11 in Montreal.

"There's something in the back of your head that says well just don't let anything in," Biron said.

He made 27 saves, and Miroslav Satan had two goals and two assists for the Sabres.

Elsewhere in the NHL, it was Tampa Bay 4, Dallas 1; Phoenix 5, Edmonton 1; New Jersey 3, Anaheim 1; the New York Islanders 3, Philadelphia 1; Carolina 3, Florida 1; and Detroit 5, Anaheim 2.

Sabres coach Lindy Ruff, whose team also got a shutout from rookie Ryan Miller last week, said the Sabres feed off the great goaltending.

"We've been getting fantastic goaltending, not just good goaltending," Ruff said.

Biron believes a lot of it comes down to luck.

"It's as good as I've felt," he said. "A lot of time it's circumstances, being in the right time or the right situation."

Chris Gratton and Taylor Pyatt also scored for Buffalo, 7-1-2 in January and 5-0-2 in its last seven games. Toronto lost its second straight.

Toronto's Ed Belfour - pulled for the first time all season - stopped 16 shots before being replaced by Mikael Tellqvist midway through the third period.

Lightning 4, Stars 1

At Dallas, Andre Roy scored two first-period goals, and Vincent Lecavalier had a goal and two assists as Tampa Bay ended the Stars' NHL-high 12-game unbeaten streak.

Lecavalier triggered a three-goal first period with his 21st of the season for the Lightning, who also got a goal from Martin St. Louis. Sergei Zubov's power-play goal early in the third period ended John Grahame's bid for his fifth career shutout.

Grahame stopped 25 shots.

Dallas was 9-0-3 in its previous dozen games. The Stars hadn't lost since Dec. 26, when they fell 3-1 in Nashville.

Coyotes 5, Oilers 1

At Edmonton, Alberta, Daymond Langkow scored three goals, and Zac Bierk made 38 saves for Phoenix.

Langkow got the Coyotes started with a short-handed goal 5:52 in. He made it 3-0 with his ninth goal of the season midway through the second period, and completed his second career hat trick by beating Tommy Salo midway through the third.

Anson Carter ended Bierk's bid for his second career shutout early in the final period. Shane Doan assisted on all three goals by Langkow. Mike Johnson and Ramzi Abid also scored for Phoenix.

Devils 3, Mighty Ducks 1

At Anaheim, Calif., Jay Pandolfo broke a 1-1 tie with a short-handed goal midway through the final period, and New Jersey got its sixth straight victory.

Jeff Friesen scored on a breakaway 24 seconds after the opening faceoff, and Jamie Langenbrunner hit an empty net with 3 seconds left.

Corey Schwab made 19 saves for the Devils, unbeaten in nine games (8-0-1). Adam Oates got Anaheim's only goal, tying the game with 46 seconds remaining in the second period.

Islanders 3, Flyers 1

At Philadelphia, Michael Peca, Roman Hamrlik and Mark Parrish scored goals for New York.

Kim Johnsson scored for Philadelphia, which had two goals disallowed against former Flyer Garth Snow - including one by Mark Recchi that would have tied it with 9:17 left.

The Flyers had won four straight and 10 of 11. The Islanders, coming off a 5-0 home loss to the New York Rangers on Tuesday night, are 10-3-0-2 in their last 15 games.

Hurricanes 3, Panthers 1

At Raleigh, N.C., Nic Wallin and Josef Vasicek scored in a 21/2-minute span of the second period, and the Hurricanes snapped an eight-game losing streak.

The defending Eastern Conference champions came within a defeat of matching the longest losing streak in franchise history, set in 1983.

Peter Worrell's first goal in 25 games with 6:49 left ruined Arturs Irbe's bid for his first shutout of the season. Eric Cole had the other Carolina goal against Robert Luongo as the Panthers fell to 2-7-0-1 in their last 10 games.

Red Wings 5, Canucks 2

At Vancouver, British Columbia, Detroit defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom scored the go-ahead goal with 6:45 remaining.

Lidstrom pinched in from the right point, reached back behind his body and swept Henrik Zetterberg's cross-ice pass underneath Dan Cloutier.

Darren McCarty and Tomas Holmstrom added goals in the final minutes for the Red Wings, who got 27 saves from Manny Legace. Detroit's Patrick Boileau scored his first NHL goal.

Markus Naslund and Todd Bertuzzi scored for Vancouver.
