At first, I thought the Bruins were fatigued from playing the night before, but, it was the Nedeljokovic show in net for the Red Wings. He faced 50 shots and was the reason Detroit won. The Red Wings PK was perfect at 4/4.

The upset of the night had the Sabres beating the Hurricanes in the first game of a home/away series in the battle of the Anderson/Andersen goalies. Craig Anderson has been playing very well this season and looks like he will continue to play next season. Olofsson had 2 goals and scored the GWG with just under 8 minutes left in reg time.

The Predators smacked the Wild on the PP. All 3 of Nashville's 1st period goals were on the PP. Johansen gets the hat trick and Saros was a stud in net making 47 saves. The win puts the Predators 2 points up on the 9th place Knights.

The Leafs-Panthers game was simply wild. We saw 4 goalies play, 7 goals in the 2nd period, 84 shots combined, each team score a SHG, and each team score 3 PPGs. It was neat to see Matthews being the play maker as he had 3 assists. From the post game links, "Marner's two goals came 37 seconds apart, the shortest span between a power-play and a short-handed goal in NHL history. Toronto tied a franchise record last achieved in 1983-84 by scoring five or more goals for the sixth straight game.The Panthers came back from a four-goal deficit for the second consecutive game."

The Avs sweep the season series over the Penguins. Kuemper made 41 saves. Neither could score on the PP. MacKinnon with 2 goals and Burakovsky assisted on both of them. The Avs officially clinch a playoff spot and stay 2 points up on the Panthers for top spot overall.

Varlamov gave the Islanders a chance to win as he faced 40 shots while his team only fired 21 shots (10 shots total in the 1st and 2nd periods). The Stars won 3-2 in reg time and the win puts them in 8th place, 1 point up on the Knights and 1 point back of the Predators.
