    ATLANTA (Ticker) - Not even a visit from the reeling New JerseyDevils could snap the Atlanta Thrashers out of their season-longslump.


    Patrik Elias broke a tie with 28 seconds remaining in regulationto defeat the listless Thrashers, 6-5, on Saturday. PaulMartin and Zach Parise picked up assists on the play.

    Entering the contest the defending Southeast Conference championThrashers, who garnered 97 points en route to their firstdivision crown, were the only NHL team without a win, nettingjust four goals through their first four games.


    The Thrashers faced the road-weary Devils, who also gave TampaBay and Florida their first wins this season.


    Nevertheless, the losing continued for the Thrashers onSaturday.


    Atlanta found itself with its first lead of the season whendefenseman Garnet Exelby broke a 2-2 tie with a slap shot justinside the blue line through traffic past New Jersey goaltenderMartin Brodeur at 7:26 of the second period.


    Sixty-two seconds later, captain Bobby Holik lifted a wrister inthe slot past Brodeur to give the Thrashers a two-goal lead.

    But the lead was short-lived. The Devils scored the next threegoals as the Atlanta offense went silent.


    Left wing Jay Pandolfo added a rebound goal to cut the lead to4-3 at 19:48 of the second period.


    Just three minutes into the third period, Travis Zajac tookadvantage of a defensive miscue and beat Atlanta goaltender KariLehtonen with a wrister to tie the game.


    Sergei Brylin lofted a wrister from his knees inside the leftfaceoff circle past Lehtonen to give New Jersey a 4-3 lead at12:05 of the third period.


    Ilya Kovalchuk tied the contest with a slap shot fromleft-faceoff circle to tie the contest at 5-5 with 3:20remaining.


    The win was the second in five games for New Jersey, which is inthe midst of a franchise-record nine-game road trip to startthe season as construction workers put the finishing touches onthe Prudential Center, the Devils' new home in Newark.

    New Jersey's John Madden found the net with a power-play tallyat 1:46 of the first period to give the Devils a brief 1-0 lead.

    But the lead was short-lived as rookie Darren Haydar took apretty backhanded pass from fellow rookie Bryan Little andrifled a shot past Brodeur 35 seconds later to knot the game at1-1.


    It was the first NHL goal for the 27-year-old Haydar, who wasthe American Hockey League's top scorer last season with 122points.


    Elias redirected Zajac's shot with his lower body in front ofthe net to give New Jersey a 2-1 edge at 18:05 of the firstperiod before Kovalchuk tied the game with a wrister from leftfaceoff circle on the power play 22 seconds into the secondperiod.


    Lehtonen set aside 29 shots in his fourth loss of the season.

    Brodeur stopped 12 shots for the Devils, who beat the Thrashersin Atlanta for the first time since the 2003-2004 campaign.

    ATLANTA (Ticker) -- Not even a visit from the reeling New JerseyDevils could snap the Atlanta Thrashers out of their season-longslump.


    Patrik Elias snapped a tie with 28 seconds remaining in thethird period with his second goal of the game and Travis Zajacrecorded a tally and two assists as the Devils edged thelistless Thrashers, 6-5, on Saturday.


    Entering the contest, the defending Southeast Division championThrashers - who garnered 97 points en route to their firstdivision crown - were the only NHL team without a win, nettingjust four goals through their first four games.


    In this one, the Thrashers hosted the road-weary Devils, whogave Tampa Bay and Florida their first wins this season.Nevertheless, the losing continued for Atlanta.


    With the game tied at 5-5, Atlanta defenseman Garnet Exelby drewa costly holding penalty with 1:45 remaining in the third,giving New Jersey its seventh power play of the night.

    Elias took advantage when his slap shot from just inside theblue line sailed past goaltender Kari Lehtonen 77 seconds laterto give the Devils the lead.


    "I liked (the way) we were playing," Elias said. "One minuteand a half to go, (we had) a big power play that worked out.Tonight, I got lucky. Luck turned on my side a little bit."

    Atlanta had just three shots in the decisive third period,including one by defenseman Tobias Enstrom that trickled pastMartin Brodeur with 18 seconds remaining. But the alertnetminder grabbed the dancing puck before it tricked over thegoal line.


    "It's not disheartening," Thrashers captain - and former Devil -Bobby Holik said of the loss. "We let the game get away fromus because we stopped playing. It's one thing to lose a gamewhen you try to make plays, but after the first 30 minutes, westopped controlling the puck.


    "If you want to win the game, everyone has to take control oftheir own game, whether it comes to taking a hit, blocking ashot or holding onto the puck. We thought we had a two-goallead and put it in cruise control."


    Atlanta found itself with its first lead of the season whenExelby snapped a 2-2 tie with a slap shot from just inside theblue line that sailed through traffic and past Brodeur at 7:26of the second period.


    Holik lifted a wrister from the slot by Brodeur 62 seconds laterto give the Thrashers a two-goal lead.


    But the advantage could not be held as the Devils scored thenext three goals as the Thrashers' offense went silent.

    Jay Pandolfo scored on a rebound with 12 seconds left in themiddle period to cut the deficit to 4-3. Just over threeminutes into the third, Zajac took advantage of a defensivemiscue and beat Lehtonen with a wrister to tie the game.

    From his knees, Sergei Brylin followed with a wrist shot fromthe left faceoff circle that beat Lehtonen at 12:05 to give NewJersey a 5-4 lead.


    "The guys didn't get down (when they were down 4-2) and theystayed with the game plan, and it really showed," Devils coachBrent Sutter said. "I thought we played a pretty solid hockeygame tonight."


    Ilya Kovalchuk tied the contest with a slap shot from leftcircle with 3:20 remaining.


    The win was the second in five games for New Jersey, which is inthe midst of a franchise-record nine-game road trip to startthe season as construction workers put the finishing touches onthe Prudential Center, the Devils' new home in Newark which willbe christened by the rock band Bon Jovi on October 25.

    The Devils will host the Ottawa Senators in their first homegame two days later.


    "It's a big win," Brodeur said. "Now we're halfway through (theroad trip). There's four more (until we come home)."

    John Madden scored a power-play tally at 1:46 of the firstperiod to give the Devils a 1-0 lead. But it was short-lived asDarren Haydar took a backhand pass from rookie Bryan Little andrifled a shot past Brodeur 35 seconds later to knot the game at1-1.


    It was the first NHL goal for the 27-year-old Haydar, who wasthe American Hockey League's top scorer last season with 122points.


    "We didn't win the game," Haydar said. "I'd rather have twopoints and a team win than a goal for myself."


    Elias redirected Zajac's shot with his lower body from in frontof the net to give New Jersey a 2-1 edge at 18:05 of the firstperiod. But Kovalchuk tied the game with a wrister from leftcircle on the power play 22 seconds into the middle session.

    Lehtonen turned aside 29 shots in suffering his fourth loss ofthe season.


    Brodeur made just 12 saves for the Devils, who beat theThrashers in Atlanta for the first time since the 2003-04campaign.
