Yesterday in the NHL there were only five games.
The fans were not disappointed with this great day of hockey.
Here are the results and highlights:
1. A 10th consecutive defeat for the Sabers
The Canadian will face a very difficult opponent tomorrow. Indeed, the Sabers will be visiting the Bell Center and are on a very bad streak.
Buffalo has lost its last 10 games, including yesterday’s game against the Toronto Maple Leafs
Final score: 5-3.
Fortunately, Lindy Ruff’s squad will face Montreal, which has also been playing on its heels for some time.
She will have the opportunity to slow down her slide into hell, therefore.
Jack Quinn and John-Jason Peterka took care of their fragile attack with two points each.
Two goals in the case of Quinn.
2. A first goal for Max Domi; natural hat trick for John Tavares
In the same game, the Leafs took advantage of the Sabers’ passing to win their 19th game of the season.
Here they are at 40 points. They are the first in the Atlantic division to achieve such a feat.
Max Domi, the former Canadian, scored his first goal of the season in the victory.
The real hero of the match, however, was John Tavares.
He had a natural hat trick, including two of the team’s three goals in 2:31.
Even the guard almost joined in the fun.
It was close.
3. A first victory since last year for Dustin Tokarski
Did you forget Dustin Tokarski existed?
I’m in the same boat, but yesterday he took part in his first NHL game since February 2023. And he won in a pretty special uniform.
27 saves on 28 shots in a 4-1 victory for the Canes against the Blue Jackets.
He was even introduced to the post-match celebrations.
In the victory, another former CH stood out.
Jesperi Kotkaniemi scored a goal.
4. Connor Bedard breaks the backs of the Islanders
In the afternoon game, the Blackhawks handed the Islanders a heartbreaking defeat.
The game was tied 3-3 with less than a minute left when Connor Bedard scored the game-winning goal.
It was his seventh point in his last five games for the young sensation.
Teuvo Teravainen was the top scorer for his team with a goal and two assists.
He was the one who scored the Hawks’ third goal.
Final score: 5-3.
5. Another Rangers defeat
In St. Louis, the Rangers lost again. This time it was by a score of 3-2.
In the Blues’ victory, Robert Thomas extended his streak of games with at least one assist to seven.
In addition to his assist on the first goal of the game, Thomas scored the winning goal.
New York scored two unanswered goals to cut the lead to one goal, but the club was unable to tie the game.
Another defeat for the Blue Shirts…
