<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>WAITING FOR A DEAL</p>
<p>The Devils held out veteran defenseman Dmitry Kulikov in anticipation of a possible trade by Monday’s deadline. Earlier in the day, New Jersey acquired defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler from the Washington Capitals for a 2021 third-round pick.</p>
<p>NOTES: Devils RW Marian Studenic made his NHL debut. … Penguins F Teddy Blueger returned to the Penguins lineup after missing 13 games. … Devils C Pavel Zacha left the game early in the second period. … … Penguins D Brian Dumoulin got an assist on the Rust goal and now has a career-high five-game point streak. … Pittsburgh F Evgeni Malkin, who missed his 13th straight game, has been skating and is closer to returning. </p>
<p>UP NEXT Penguins: Have three days off before facing Flyers at home on Thursday. Pittsburgh went 4-2 on its six-game trip.</p>
<p>Devils: At home Tuesday night to play the first of four straight against the New York Rangers.</p>
