PHILADELPHIA -- Jaromir Jagr isnt acting his age, and the New Jersey Devils are thrilled about it. Jagr scored the winning goal to snap a third-period tie and lead the New Jersey Devils to a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night. It was the 21st goal of the season and sixth game-winning tally for Jagr, who is the NHLs career leader with 124. It also marked the 702nd career goal for the 42-year-old forward, who earlier this season became the seventh player to score 700 NHL goals. Jagr, in his 20th NHL season, is enjoying the opportunity the Devils have provided him. "Without the fun at my age, theres no chance you can play," Jagr said. "You have to grab the opportunity. I got a chance to play and now its up to me what kind of advantage I take of it." While outsiders might be surprised by Jagrs success, those close to him arent. "Hes done that all year for us," Devils coach Pete DeBoer said. "Nothing surprises me about him. When youre around him, thats why hes one of the best of all time." Travis Zajac had the other goal for New Jersey (29-24-13), which won for the fifth time in seven games to move within two points of the third-place Flyers in the tightly bunched Metropolitan Division. Adam Henrique was held in check by the Flyers, and his six-game goal streak was snapped. Henrique had nine goals and two assists during that run. Nicklas Grossman scored for the Flyers (33-25-7), who are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games. "Well, its a tough loss," Flyers coach Craig Berube said. "Obviously, our team battled hard; it was a good game, I thought we competed hard. We didnt score enough goals." Philadelphia had a potential tying goal by Scott Hartnell disallowed by officials with 40.1 seconds remaining because it was determined that Hartnell pushed goalie Martin Brodeur into the net. "Not saying he did it on purpose, but his momentum threw him into me," Brodeur said. "It really prevented me. It didnt warrant a penalty. I think its the right call." Brodeur won for the fourth straight time. Like Jagr, the 41-year-old Brodeur didnt show his age. "He was in a zone," Jagr said. "Its Marty Brodeur, what do you want me to say? Either youve got it or you dont, and hes got it." Brodeur also praised Jagr for his winning goal. "You cant teach that," he said of Jagrs skill level. "These are things that he does that not many players are able to have, and it comes natural to him." Marek Zidlicky set up Jagr for the decisive tally with a backhanded pass from behind the net. Jagr lifted it off goalie Steve Mason and just inside the near post from close range to put New Jersey ahead 2-1 with 12:18 left. "My dad always told me, You have to keep moving in the offensive zone," said Jagr, who also had an assist. "Thats what we did, and something is always opening up. Lucky break, but since we were skating a lot it creates chances." Jagr, a former Flyers player, is no stranger to success against Philadelphia. He raised his career total to 103 points in 90 career games versus the Flyers. "He was able to kind of just chip it and it snuck through there," Mason said. "Hes a big body, strong player when he has the puck on his stick and is able to protect it." Zajac opened the scoring 7:56 in when he beat Mason top shelf from a difficult angle after getting the Flyers goalie to sprawl on the ice following a deke in front. It was Zajacs 12th goal this season. Grossmann tied it 47 seconds into the second period with a rare soft goal allowed by Brodeur. Grossmann whirled and wristed a shot from the side boards near the Flyers bench. Brodeur misplayed the puck, and it went between his legs. Brodeur was solid otherwise, making 30 saves to improve to 50-31-10 against Philadelphia. Mason fell to 0-4 against the Devils. NOTES: Grossmann last scored on Feb. 20 of last season. ... Flyers centre Zac Rinaldo (upper body injury) sat out. He is day-to-day. ... Backup Philadelphia goalie Ray Emery (lower body injury) didnt play despite practicing on Monday. Emery hasnt played since being injured on Feb. 27. ... New Jersey went 2-1-1 against Philadelphia this season. Rod Brind Amour Jersey .

They increased their division lead over the Braves to 1 1/2 games. Justin Faulk Jersey . Orlov, who scored two goals in the game, was assessed a major penalty for boarding on the play.

Benitez has 10 games to rescue the clubs Premier League status after agreeing to replace sacked head coach Steve McClaren in a revised role of manager.If he succeeds, the Spaniard will begin work on a three-year contract, while relegation will leave him the option of walking away. Supporters waiting for a first trophy since 1969 should not get too hung up on that release clause, according to Carragher, who won the Champions League under Benitez at Liverpool and believes Newcastle have finally found a worthy successor to Sir Bobby Robson. Five challenges for Rafa Five issues for Rafa Benitez to address at Newcastle I think for Newcastle, its a fantastic appointment to get a manager of that calibre, the Sky Sports expert said. I think over the last decade, youd have to go back to Bobby Robson [to find someone] who has won that many honours.These next 10 games - if he can get through those, then over the next three years he could be the man that stops that rot of trophies. Hes won so many trophies in his career. Sky Sports News HQs Keith Downie gets reaction from fans as Benitez takes over at Newcastle The fans shouldnt be concerned, not at all. For any Newcastle fan, forget the next three years, focus on the next 10 games. If youre a fan and Newcastle went down, you wouldnt want Rafa, youd want someone that has experience in that league and has success in that league. Rafa wont wannt to be there.dddddddddddd Rafa Benitez and Jamie Carragher won the Champions League together at Liverpool in 2005 It works perfectly for both parties; if he keeps them up, itll be a great appointment over the next three or four years and hopefully he can get Newcastle back up the table I think the next 10 games are all that matters for everyone involved.Benitez has a CV featuring some of Europes most well-known clubs, but has little experience of fighting a relegation battle. Benitez calls his players in on a day off to put them through training on his first day in the job I cant remember ever seeing Rafa at this end of the table, Carragher told Sky Sports News HQ. Thats why Im interested in seeing how he goes about it. Thats why Im interested in seeing how he manages, how he prepares his players.Motivation? Thats not Rafas biggest strength. He will look at how they suffer tactically. Rafa was probably the best I had with setting up a back four. Theres probably going to be a lot of repetition and he wont apologise for that. Those players will work hard - whoever theyre playing, it will be a difficult game for them. It wont be the open expansive style the fans want, for now he will be focusing on trying to make Newcastle difficult to beat.
