NEWARK, N.J. — Colton Sceviour scored two, quick goals just hours after coming off waivers and the streaking Pittsburgh Penguins rolled to a 5-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Sunday night.

Bryan Rust scored a controversial goal and Jake Guenzel added two late ones as the Penguins won their third straight and improved to 9-2-1 in their last 12. Tristan Jarry was outstanding, making 28 saves.

Miles Wood and P.K. Subban scored for the Devils, who are 1-4-2 in their last seven. Mackenzie Blackwood had 19 saves as New Jersey fell to 4-15-3 at home.

Sceviour, who was waived earlier in the day, staked the Penguins to a 2-0 lead in the opening 5:26. The veteran picked up a rebound behind the net and came out and tucked the puck into the net at 2:35. He got his second and third in two games on a tip after Pittsburgh benefitted from a questionable non-icing call.

The game had a number of iffy calls by the officials, with the biggest one coming late in the second period. Wood had gotten New Jersey within a goal in the first period and Devils dominated the middle session, outshooting the Penguins 14-6.

Pittsburgh surged late in the period and Rust scored his 17th on a shot from between the circles with Guentzel screening Blackwood. Devils coach Lindy Ruff challenged the goal, saying Sidney Crosby pushed defenseman Ty Smith into Blackwood, interfering with the goaltender.

Replays showed there was a push and contact, but the goal stood. On the ensuing power play early in the third period Guentzel scored. He added an empty-net goal late.

The Penguins have three days off before facing Flyers at home on Thursday.
