Yesterday, on Wednesday evening, only six teams were in action.
A fourth duel was to take place, but due to the fires in California, the Flames-Kings meeting was postponed.
Here are the results and highlights:
1. PLD plays the hero
In Washington, few goals were scored, but there was no shortage of action.
From the first moments, almost all the players on the ice took part in a general melee.
Although three goals were scored in a 2-1 overtime victory for the Caps, Pierre-Luc Dubois stole the show, scoring both goals for his team.
He first scored the first goal of the match.
Then, this goal in overtime, which made the rounds of the news.
That’s two consecutive defeats in overtime for Vancouver, which, I remind you, lost in the same way in Montreal on Monday.
2. A high-intensity match in Salt Lake City
For those who like to stay up late, you were spoiled with the match between the Panthers and the Utah club, which took place in the West.
Indeed, the two teams don’t like each other very much. In the third period, the locals did not like a check against their player.
And after the game, while everyone was celebrating, Liam O’Brien and AJ Greer threw down the gloves.
In a 4-1 victory for the Panthers, Sam Reinhart scored the first goal of the game.
It was already his 23rd of the season.
Logan Cooley lost Sergei Bobrovsky’s shutout.
But Jesper Boqvist sealed the outcome of the match with an empty net.
3. Connor Bedard wants the star
In Chicago, the Avalanche opened the scoring thanks to Juuso Parssinen.
It was his first goal in Colorado.
On the other hand, it was Chicago who won the match and Connor Bedard who stole the show.
He collected a goal and an assist and thus continued his streak of games with at least one point to eight.
He scored the insurance goal.
Other young people also distinguished themselves in victory. Frank Nazar and Colton Dach each had a point on Nazar’s goal.
In Kirby’s brother’s case, it was his first NHL point.
Final score: 3-1.
Prolongation
– The Quebecer, who is also on a five-game streak with at least one point, is also a goon.
– Four players at two points.
– 20 teams in action this evening.
