MONTREAL - Alex Galchenyuk may be indebted to his linemate Max Pacioretty for the next little while.Galchenyuk recorded his first-career hat trick to lead the Canadiens to a 4-1 victory over the visiting Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday, extending Montreals winning streak to three games. Pacioretty got the primary assist on all three of Galchenyuks goals.I think he owes me dinner, said Pacioretty, who recently inherited two new linemates in Galchenyuk and Brendan Gallagher. Its fun playing with those two. Im not old by any means, but they bring my age down a little bit. I feel like I have a lot more energy playing with those guys at times.Theyre always going, always buzzing. Theyre two guys who are easy to play with.Pacioretty used to play on the first line with David Desharnais and Pierre-Alexandre Parenteau, while Galchenyuk and Gallagher played on the second with Tomas Plekanec. The recent line shuffle by putting Galchenyuk at centre on the starting line paid major dividends against the Hurricanes, a team now winless in their last six games.Galchenyuk, Pacioretty and Gallagher peppered Cam Wards net with a total of eight shots, with each forward finishing the night with a plus-three rating.We had good chemistry today, said Galchenyuk, who had never scored more than one goal in a game before Tuesday. Pacioretty made great plays on all three. I have to get used to his speed, and he has to get used to playing with me.My linemates made it really easy for me. We had a lot of fun out there tonight. It took me two and a half years to score two goals. Its even better to get three!With the Canadiens already ahead 1-0 after a rare first-period goal, Galchenyuk scored the eventual game-winner at 8:33 of the second period on a highlight-reel goal that implicated four players. Galchenyuk - for his first of the night - capped off a beautiful tic-tac-toe pass from Pacioretty on a sequence initiated by Gallagher and Andrei Markov. Ward was far from his crease when the puck found the back of the net.After Carolinas Victor Rask gave the Canes life early in the third period, Galchenyuk put the game to bed after Pacioretty found him calling for a pass at the blue-line. The Russian made no mistake on the breakaway for his eighth of the season at 16:41 of the third to put Montreal ahead 3-1.Hes a young guy with a lot of potential, said head coach Michel Therrien of Galchenyuk. Were all aware of that. Games like this one give him confidence. Hes creating good chemistry with Pacioretty, and hes already very used to playing with Gallagher.Galchenyuk, 20, completed the hat trick just 69 seconds later, after a precise cross-crease feed from Pacioretty landed right on his stick. After the 4-1 goal, Galchenyuks linemates razzed him by giving him the cold shoulder and refusing to celebrate with him.Pacioretty and Gallagher talked to each other to not celebrate with me, said Galchenyuk. I was just skating by myself, and they were celebrating with the other players. All I could do was laugh out there.After losing three consecutive games on the road, the Habs (20-10-2) have answered back with a three-game winning streak on their current home stand.The Hurricanes (8-19-3), meanwhile, have now lost six in a row while scoring only one goal in each of those losses. Ward made 25 saves in defeat.Down 2-1 in the third, Carolina failed to capitalize on its most promising sequence of the evening. With five minutes remaining on the clock, veteran Ron Hainsey was stopped by Carey Price just seconds after Elias Lindholm hit the post.That was a key moment in the game, said Hurricanes coach Bill Peters. From that point, it gets extended and it looks like a one-sided game.Carolina has given little support to its two goalies, Ward and Anton Khudobin, on the losing streak, as Peters men have been outscored 18-6 since they last won a match. The Canes have scored more than two goals just once in their last nine games.And it was more of the same on Tuesday for the Hurricanes, which put just one puck past Price on 26 shots.Its a tough league to win in when youre scoring one goal a game, said Jeff Skinner, who finished the game with a point and a minus-two rating. We havent been executing in the offensive end to earn a win.In a game largely characterized by questionable passes and sloppy giveaways by both clubs - especially in the first two periods - the Canadiens made the most of key opportunities.After missed chances at each end of the rink by Nathan Gerbe and then Markov, Montreal opened the scoring at 9:15 of the first when Brandon Prust scored his second of the year.Ward was miles from his net after David Desharnais faked a wraparound and lured him from his crease before dropping the puck back in front to an open Prust.An unusually undisciplined Hurricanes team - Carolina came into the game having taken a league-low 76 penalties - went to the box five times, but Montreal couldnt make the most of their odd-man chances despite their recently-improved power play.Price is now 7-2-1 in his last 10 games at the Bell Centre versus the Hurricanes.Notes: Out with injury for the Habs were Bryan Allen (flu), Lars Eller (upper body) and Mike Weaver (concussion). … Carolinas top-scorer Jiri Tlusty missed his second consecutive game with an upper-body injury. … The Canadiens have won seven of their last eight at home against the Canes.

Its the games against the leagues struggling franchises that have proved to be an issue.SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Francisco Giants needed four innings to figure out Cleveland starter Zach McAllister. Hunter Pence hit a two-run single in San Franciscos four-run fifth, leading the Giants to a 5-3 victory over the Indians on Saturday. "That one inning, it just got contagious," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. McAllister (3-1) retired 12 in a row before Michael Morse led off the fifth with a single to centre. Morse advanced to third on Brandon Crawfords one-out single and scored on Gregor Blancos pinch-hit single that came on a first-pitch fastball. "Coming off the bench, its not that easy to do," Blanco said. "In that situation to get a pinch hit and drive one in ... you just got to be aggressive." Angel Pagan had a sacrifice fly before Pences two-out hit gave the Giants a 4-3 lead. McAllister left after Brandon Belt struck out to end the inning. He allowed five hits, struck out six and walked one after winning his previous three starts. Buster Posey added a solo homer in the sixth as San Francisco earned its third consecutive win. Posey, who won the NL MVP award in 2012, went 1 for 3 and is batting .103 (4 for 39) over his last 13 games. "I was happy for Buster," Bochy said. "You go through these tough streaks and its not easy." Giants starter Tim Lincecum lasted just 4 2-3 innings, but managed to lower his ERA to 5.96. He was charged with three runs, two earned, and nine hits. "We did a really good job of making (Lincecum) work," Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. "We just werent able to get that one more hit to tack on." Lincecum has pitched just 25 2-3 innings in five starts in his first season since he signed a $35 million, two-year contract over the winter. "I had my game plan. I just wasnt executing it," Lincecum said. "That kind of exacerbated the feeling of hopelessness, I guess.dddddddddddd Well, not hopelessness, but just things arent going right. Fix that tomorrow." But San Francisco continued to get strong work from its bullpen. Juan Gutierrez (1-1), Jean Machi, Jeremy Affeldt and Sergio Romo combined for 4 1-3 hitless innings after Lincecum departed. Romo got three outs for his sixth save in six chances as San Franciscos bullpen lowered its MLB-best home ERA to 0.45 in 11 games. "Very impressive," Bochy said. "They won the game for us today with the job they did." Bochy went out of his way to praise Gutierrez for striking out Yan Gomes with the bases loaded to end the fifth inning. Michael Bourn, Nick Swisher and David Murphy had two hits apiece for Cleveland. Jason Kipnis drove in two runs. Cleveland scored in the first, third and fifth to build a 3-0 lead. Kipnis singled in Bourn in the first and drove in Swisher with a grounder in the third. Swisher doubled home Bourn in the fifth. Saturday marked the 257th straight regular-season sellout at AT&T Park, matching the National League record set by the Philadelphia Phillies from July 7, 2009 to Aug. 5, 2012. Up next on the MLB sellout streak list is the Indians, who sold out Jacobs Field 455 times from June 12, 1995 to April 2, 2001. NOTES: The Giants have now started off interleague play with two consecutive wins against the Indians after going 6-14 in 2013, the second-worst mark in MLB. ... McAllister registered his first career hit in the second inning with a single to right field. ...
