Only two games on again today, beginning in...
Winnipeg, where the Jets host the St. Louis Blues. Brian Elliott and Ondrej Pavelec are in the blue paint. St. Louis was first to score in the first period with a David Backes goal, his sixth of the season, via T.J. Oshie. Winnipeg tied it with Olli Jokinen's second of the year, thanks to Matt Halischuk. The Blues took the lead back on an Alexander Steen goal, his sixth of the season, going in unassisted. St. Louis extended the lead as Steen scored his second of the game and seventh of the year in the third period, via Backes and Jay Bouwmeester. The Jets got one back as Evander Kane potted his fourth of the season, with a lone helper from Bryan Little. Winnipeg tied it on a Tobias Enstrom goal, made possible by Dustin Byfuglien and Blake Wheeler. The tie lasted to a shootout, where Oshie and Andrew Ladd cancelled each other out, followed by Steen and Little doing the game before Jokinen was able to win it all in sudden-death. The Jets skated away with a 4-3 win, and the three stars were Jokinen, Steen, and Oshie, while Little gets an honorable mention.
The other game comes from Anaheim, where the Ducks bring in the Phoenix Coyotes. Mike Smith and Jonas Hiller protect the nets. Anaheim struck first in the first period as Teemu Selanne scored his second of the season, with the help of Mathieu Perreault. Phoenix tied it on an Antoine Vermette goal, his second of the year, passed from Keith Yandle and Mike Ribeiro in the second period. The Coyotes took the lead in the third period as Rostislav Klesla scored, courtesy of Martin Hanzal and Shane Doan. The Ducks tied it as Nick Bonino recorded his third of the campaign, an unassisted goal. This game also went to the shootout, where Bonino was matched by Radim Vrbata, Corey Perry and Ribeiro washed each other out, Selanne and Oliver Ekman-Larsson cancelled each other out, and then Jakob Silfverberg won it for the Ducks with his shootout tally for a 3-2 win. The three stars were Selanne, Ribeiro, and Bonino.
