NHL Daily Quick Fix: Stana Stones Red Wings, Sibling Rivalry In Florida

The Washington Capitals, playing poorly and badly in need of inspiration, turn to.... Rastislav Stana! In his first NHL game, Stana turns aside 39 shots to beat Detroit 4-1. The goaltending story isn't quite so rosy at the other end, where Curtis Joseph is yanked after allowing 3 goals on 9 shots. Meanwhile, the hottest scorer in the NHL is Caps' centre Robert Lang. With a goal and two assists against the Red Wings, Lang has 20 points in his last 12 games. In other Monday night action:

Maple Leafs sweep a home-and-home series from the Canucks, following Saturday's 5-3 win in Vancouver with a 2-1 victory in Toronto. Mats Sundin has a goal and an assist. The Canucks are first in the Western Conference, but they're vulnerable on the road, with just in three wins in 11 games.

There are signs of life in Dallas, where Mike Modano has a three-point night in the Stars' 5-2 win over Phoenix. Modano, like just about every other Dallas player, has been in a terrible slump. The Coyotes are another team that can't win on the road.

Stephen Weiss could barely get into the lineup when Mike Keenan coached the Panthers. But he has 10 points in 10 games since returning from the minors, including a goal and an assist in Florida's 2-1 win over Buffalo. Panthers' defenseman Mathieu Biron scores the winner against his brother, Sabres' goalie Martin Biron.

With a 3-2 victory in Colorado, the Nashville Predators have won five of their last seven games.
