1.6 seconds (later changed to 2.2). That’s all that stood between the Jets and heartbreak at home in Game 7. Fortunately, Winnipeg is one of Canada’s coldest cities, so a few Jets had ice in their veins on Sunday night. Captain Adam Lowry lifted his team to Round 2 with the game-winning goal in double [...]
Tampa Bay 5, Florida 1 (Panthers lead series 2-1) After managing just two goals at home through Games 1 & 2, Tampa’s offense finally clicked on the road as they put up four against Sergei Bobrovsky and added an empty netter for good measure. It was a big win for Tampa, missing one of their [...]
Carolina 4, New Jersey 1 (Hurricanes lead series 1-0) GM Eric Tulsky looked like a genius on Sunday as two of his midseason acquisitions – Logan Stankoven and Taylor Hall – were integral in Carolina’s Game 1 victory over the Devils.

Chicago snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 7-4 victory over Philly on Sunday. Tyler Bertuzzi led the way with a goal and two assists.

Lucas Raymond snapped a 10-game goal drought with a wonderful goal against Vegas, giving him six points in his last five games. The 23-year-old winger leads the team in scoring with 69 points - 10 points clear of second place Dylan Larkin. Nice. https://twitter.com/BR_OpenIce/status/1901350090326810903 Against a Golden Knights team on the second half of a [...]
Sunday’s helper gives Luke Hughes seven points in his last seven outings. Hughes is seeing more power-play opportunity with Dougie Hamilton out for an ‘extended period of time’ and probably should be rostered in more than 48% of Yahoo Leagues. Ivan Fedotov hasn’t allowed more than two goals in each of his last three appearances. [...]
