PITTSBURGH, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- Mark Fraser scored his first NHL goal Saturday to help New Jersey beat Pittsburgh 4-1 and end the Penguins' seven-game winning streak.

Zach Parise, Nicklas Bergfors and Travis Zajac each had a goal for the Devils, who have won their first five road games of the season.

Martin Brodeur won his third consecutive start by stopping 32-of-33 shots.

Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 22 of the 26 shots he faced in goal for the Penguins. The lone Pittsburgh goal was scored by Alex Goligoski at 9:36 of the third period, which prevented Brodeur from tying Terry Sawchuck's NHL record 103 career shutouts.

Fraser opened the scoring with a wrist shot from the left circle that deflected off Fleury at 9:50 of the first period.
