RALEIGH, N.C. -- Hurricanes coach Kirk Muller wasnt sure how his team would respond after Tuesdays game at Buffalo was postponed by a blizzard. With the way Carolina is playing right now, it is going to take more than a change in plans to throw off the Hurricanes rhythm. Jordan Staal had a goal and three assists, and Jeff Skinner extended his offensive surge with a goal and an assist to lead the Hurricanes to a 6-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday night. It was Carolinas fifth consecutive win. "That game cancelled in Buffalo gave us an extra day or two of rest," Muller said. "I think it really helped us. We had fresh legs and everyone contributing." John-Michael Liles, Patrick Dwyer, Zach Boychuk and Elias Lindholm also scored for the Hurricanes. Liles was playing against his former team for the first time -- Carolina sent defenceman Tim Gleason to Toronto for Liles on Jan. 1. "Its just nice to be wanted and to feel like I have a place," Liles said. "It allows me to be confident and play my game. I think we have a great group of guys on the team -- theyve welcomed me, and its been a nice fit so far." Skinners goal was his 17th in his last 17 games, and he improved his point streak to a career-high six games, with seven goals and five assists in that stretch. Lindholm had three points in his first game back with Carolina after playing for Sweden in the World Junior Championship. Anton Khudobin made 25 saves for the Hurricanes to improve his record to 6-0-0. Khudobin missed more than two months earlier this season with an ankle injury. "This game was, by far, the easiest game," Khudobin said. Joffrey Lupul scored for the Maple Leafs. James Reimer made 30 saves. Toronto has lost three in a row by a combined score of 18-5 after defeating Detroit in the Winter Classic on New Years Day. "We are standing still," Toronto coach Randy Carlyle said. "We are watching teams skate. We are not engaged in the hockey game at the level that is required to give ourselves a chance at success." The Hurricanes took immediate control of the game. Boychuk opened the scoring 2:33 in, when his backhand shot deflected off the stick of Gleason and beat Reimer. It was Boychuks first goal of the year. The Hurricanes made it 2-0 exactly 6 minutes later following a long stretch of sustained pressure on the power play. The puck eventually got to Lindholm, who set up Staal for a one-timer in the slot. Reimer stopped that shot, but Skinner cleaned up the rebound. Following lopsided losses to the New York Rangers and the New York Islanders in its previous two games, Toronto appeared lethargic for much of the night, but the Maple Leafs did manage to close the deficit to 2-1 a little less than 6 minutes after Skinners goal. Mason Raymond won the puck on the forecheck behind the Hurricanes net and centred to Lupul, who scored from the top of the crease. Carolina reclaimed its two-goal lead with 2:27 left in the first period on Dwyers goal. After another long stretch of offensive zone pressure, Dwyer scored when his wrist shot through traffic went through Reimers legs. "Youve just got to find a way to make a save there to keep your team in it," Reimer said. The Hurricanes then made the score 4-1 early in the second when Liles scored on a snap shot on a 3-on-1 break. It was the first goal for the defenceman since he was traded to Carolina. Staal added a short-handed goal 25 seconds into the third period, and Lindholm finished the scoring with a 5-on-3 goal in the final 70 seconds.

Josh Harrison — who struck out four times the previous night — tripled, doubled and scored twice and the Pirates erupted in the final two innings to beat the Diamondbacks 9-4 on Friday night. Pittsburgh scored the last nine runs, including eight in the eighth and ninth. It was the 27th comeback win for the Pirates. "Its just what we do," Harrison said. "We know were not done til the last out." Arizonas All-Star Paul Goldschmidt was hit in the left hand by a pitch from Ernesto Frieri in the ninth inning. The hand was covered with a bandage afterward and Goldschmidt said he hadnt gotten the X-ray results. Jordy Mercer had an RBI double, Michael Martinez and Russell Martin RBI singles and Travis Snider a two-run single in the Pirates tiebreaking five-run ninth. "Its backyard baseball," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said. "Its nothing spectacular. We just play." Tony Watson (8-1) pitched a scoreless eighth to get the win. Bo Schultz (0-1), recalled from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, gave up all five in the ninth. While some of Goldschmidts teammates were suspicious he was hit on purpose, he didnt think so. "Guys have to try and get outs. What do you want them to do? Just throw it down the middle? They pitch inside as a team. We do it too. We want our pitchers to be able to pitch inside. You dont want to see anyone get hurt but sometimes it may or may not happen." Ender Inciartes three-run homer had helped Arizona take a 4-0 lead through five innings and Vidal Nuno appeared headed for his first victory in five starts since coming in the trade that sent Brandon McCarthy to the New York Yankees. However, the Pirates battered the Arizona bullpen with 10 hits in the last two innings. In the fifth, Arizona manager Kirk Gibson challenged a wild pitch call that ended up with Didi Gregorius on third, but with two outs. He won the challenge, the review determining that the batter Nuno was hit in the foot by the pitch. Two pitches later, with runners at first and second, Inciarte hit his second homer of the seasonn, and his career, into the right field seats.dddddddddddd After the game was over, the Diamondbacks, upset that Goldschmidt had been hit, got into an argument with Martin about it. The dugouts emptied but no one did more than talk. "I dont think anybody on their side was happy that Goldschmidt got hit," Hurdle said. "It wasnt any intent on Ernestos part. ... Nobody wants to hit a guy in that situation." TRAINERS ROOM Pirates: Right-hander Gerrit Cole, out since July 5 with shoulder fatigue, was scratched from his scheduled rehab start Saturday and will have a bullpen session instead. Outfielder Starling Marte, on the concussion list since July 23, will make a rehab start Saturday for Triple-A Indianapolis and could be back with the big league club within a week. Diamondbacks: A.J. Pollock, on the DL with a fractured right hand since June 1, had one at bat and played centre field in his first rehab game in the Arizona League. Infielder Cliff Pennington, out since June 2 with a sprained left thumb, is 8 for 29 (.421) in five rehab games with the Diamondbacks Arizona League squad. ON DECK The Pirates can gain at least a split of the series with a win Saturday night. Vance Worley (4-1, 2.54 ERA), coming off his first career shutout in a 5-0 win at Colorado, will try to stop the Pittsburgh skid. Rookie Chase Anderson (6-4, 3.34) goes for Arizona. He allowed one run on three hits in seven innings in his last outing, a no-decision at Cincinnati. In Arizonas four-run fifth, Pittsburgh had a hit batter, throwing error by catcher Russell Martin, a wild pitch that scored a run, a throwing error and a walk. NICE PLAY Brent Morel, in his fourth start at third base since coming up from Triple-A Indianapolis, made a diving stop of Jordan Pachecos grounder in the sixth. He got up and threw to first, where Gaby Sanchez stretched as far as he could to his right to make the catch for the out. RARE ABSENCE Goldschmidt was out of the starting ineup for only the second time in 109 games this season. He entered the game on a double-switch in the ninth. TRIPLE-A DIAMONDBACKS: Five of Arizonas starters opened the season in the minor leagues. ' ' '
