CHICAGO - Viktor Fasth made two stops in the shootout to remain perfect in six starts as Anaheim beat Chicago 3-2 in Tuesday's matchup of the top two teams in the Western Conference. After Jonathan Toews converted the first shootout attempt for Chicago, Fasth stopped Patrick Kane's backhander and denied Brandon Saad on the right side of the goal. Nick Bonino and Corey Perry scored in the tiebreaker for Anaheim.

Slap shots

One playoff appearance in more than five seasons wasn't good enough for Scott Howson to keep his job as Columbus Blue Jackets general manager. Howson was fired Tuesday by John Davidson, director of hockey operations.
