Newark, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - Jaromir Jagr recorded his first hat trick in almost nine years and set a league record in the process, Cory Schneider came up with 18 saves, and New Jersey pounded Philadelphia by a 5-2 count at Prudential Center. Jagr became the oldest player in NHL history to score three times in one contest, doing so at 42 years, 322 days. Gordie Howe held the previous mark on his three-goal effort at the age of 41. The Czech veteran also crept closer to Phil Esposito (717) on the leagues all-time goals list, finishing the night with 714 career tallies. I like to score a hat trick but I dont like to be the oldest guy. I dont want to be the oldest, Jagr quipped. Scott Gomez added a goal and two assists with Patrik Elias providing the other marker for the Devils, who won for just the third time in their last 13 games. Andrew MacDonald and Vincent Lecavalier scored once each for the Flyers, who finished their eight-game road trip at 3-4-1 after losing their final five dates. Ray Emery allowed three goals on 10 shots in the first period to take the loss. Steve Mason finished up with just six saves on eight shots. We didnt do any justice to ourselves these last couple games, said Mason. These are points that were there for the taking. We shouldve had four points from them, and came up with some pretty flat efforts. At this point of the year, we dont need to keep saying it, but its completely unacceptable. Team captain and second-ranking scorer Claude Giroux did not play, one night after suffering a skate cut to the back of his left leg in Carolina. It ended his streak of 168 consecutive regular-season appearances. The Devils recorded the games first goal with 6:40 remaining in the opening period. Emery played the puck behind his net, but a backhanded clear instead found the stick of Adam Henrique, and Jagr poked it home with a backhander from behind the goal line. Elias scored just over two minutes later from the right side on a power play, after all four Flyers penalty killers drifted to the left side to watch Martin Havlats cross-ice pass. It was 3-0 for the hosts on a Jagr wrister with less than four seconds to go. He stripped Flyers defenseman Mark Streit near the blue line and within the span of several strides, uncorked a trademark wrister from the right wing. New Jersey went up by four just before the midway point of regulation, as Gomez buried a low shot inside the right post to finish off a 4-on-2 break. The rout continued and history was made at the 12:32 mark, when Gomez set up behind Mason and flipped a pass in front where Jagr, sliding towards the crease, was able to direct the puck in to cap his trifecta. MacDonald finally punctured Schneider on a blast with 3:22 remaining before intermission, and Lecavalier fired through an R.J. Umberger screen at 5:59 of the third for a power-play strike. Game Notes Jagr recorded his 15th NHL hat trick and first since March 22, 2006, when he scored all three goals for the Rangers in a 6-3 loss to the Flyers at Madison Square Garden ... Prior to the contest, the Devils recalled defenseman Mark Fraser from Albany of the AHL ...

One day after his recall from the minors, the rookie catcher played a big role in helping the Braves break out of their slump. Bethancourt had three hits in his return to the major leagues, including a fifth-inning single that drove in the go-ahead run in Atlantas 7-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday. "When youre at Triple-A, youre still watching the big guys playing," Bethancourt said. "You follow the numbers, and youre watching every single game. You know the next day, the next hour, youre probably with the big league team and you have to be aware of whats going on." B.J. Upton hit a two-run homer in a three-run second as the Braves ended a 25-inning scoreless streak. "That was a big step," Bethancourt said. "We were able to score a lot of runs after two shutouts in a row. Thats a good step for the team." Atlanta began the day 1 1/2 games behind Milwaukee for the NLs second wild card. Ervin Santana (14-7) won despite allowing four runs and seven hits in six innings. Craig Kimbrel pitched around a leadoff walk to Cesar Hernandez in the ninth for his major league-leading 42nd save in 46 chances. Grady Sizemore hit a two-run homer in the third that tied the score 3-3, and Ben Revere had three hits for his fourth straight multihit game. Atlanta, shut out in three of its previous four games, fell behind on Chase Utleys first-inning sacrifice fly but took a 3-1 lead in the second behind Uptons 10th homer and first since Aug. 8. The Braves had scored one run in their previous 36 innings. All three runs were unearned because of an error by Utley, who allowed Ryan Doumits leadoff grounder to bounce off his glove for an error. Bethancourt, recalled following a six-week demotion, drove in the Braves first run with an infield single in the second and put Atlanta ahead 5-4 with an RBI single in the fifth. Beethancourts status as a top prospect is based largely on his work behind the plate, but he showed offensive potential by hitting .dddddddddddd283 with eight homers and 48 RBIs at Gwinnett. "Theres no question in my mind that defensively this kid is ready to play in the major leagues," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "Offensively, hes going to hit and like every young player. When they see enough of him, hes going to have to make some adjustments." Freddie Freeman led off the fifth with a double off Mario Hollands (2-2). Freeman initially was ruled out stretching at second on left fielder Domonic Browns throw to Utley, but Jordan Bakers call was reversed on video review. Bethancourt then singled against Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez, a Cuban who signed last year and who was making his major league debut. HOMECOMING Phillies starter David Buchanan, from Peachtree City, Georgia, and Georgia State, gave up four runs -- one earned -- three hits and four walks in his first game at Atlanta.
