CHICAGO — Patrick Sharp scored twice and Patrick Kane, Bryan Bickell and Nick Leddy also connected to lead the Blackhawks to a 5-2 win over the Devils on Monday night.
Stephen Gionta and Michael Ryder had goals for the Devils, whose season-high four-game point streak (3-0-1) ended as they were held to only 12 shots on goal.
Kane has points in 12 straight games, matching his career high — set earlier this season, and just before his current run.
He has seven goals and 14 assists in his streak, and at least one point in all but one of his past 25 games, helping him climb into second in the NHL scoring race behind Pittsburgh’s Sidney Crosby.
Bickell’s goal was his first since Nov. 10, but he missed 14 of the Blackhawks’ 19 games during that span with a knee injury.
Chicago rookie Antti Raanta made 10 saves in his seventh straight start — all since Blackhawks top goalie Corey Crawford suffered a lower-body injury on Dec. 8.
