Four games on today, beginning with a matinee in...
Los Angeles, as the Kings host the Minnesota Wild. Niklas Backstrom and Jonathan Quick are the veteran goalies. Los Angeles started with a Tyler Toffoli power play goal in the first period, his third of the season, powered by Mike Richards and Slava Voynov. The Kings added on in the third period as Tanner Pearson scored his fifth of the year, thanks to Toffoli and Jeff Carter. Minnesota got on the board with a Matt Cooke goal, assisted by Ryan Carter and Justin Fontaine. This only made it 2-1, the final, with the three stars awarded to Quick (40 for 41 in saves), Toffoli, and Pearson.
Back east, the New York Rangers welcome the San Jose Sharks. Alex Stalock and Henrik Lundqvist are the masked men. New York got going in the second period with a Carl Hagelin goal, assisted by John Moore and Dominic Moore. The Rangers added on as Martin St. Louis scored an unassisted goal. New York extended the lead on Rick Nash's seventh of the season, passed from Dominic Moore. The Rangers padded the lead in the third period with an unassisted Kevin Hayes goal. This made it 4-0, the eventual final, and the three stars belonged to Lundqvist (33 save shutout), Dominic Moore, and Hayes.
Northwest to Winnipeg, where the Jets bring in the Calgary Flames. Jonas Hiller and Ondrej Pavelec receive the starting nods. Winnipeg opened in the first period with a Mark Scheifele goal, passed from Blake Wheeler and Mathieu Perreault. Calgary tied it in the second period with a Dennis Wideman goal, his second of the season, via Matt Stajan and Kris Russell. The Flames took the lead on a Johnny Gaudreau power play goal, powered by Joe Colborne and Mason Raymond. Calgary added on with a Raymond goal, his fifth of the year, coming off of Gaudreau and Wideman. The Flames extended the lead as T.J. Brodie scored his third of the season, thanks to Mikael Backlund and Raymond. They held on to win 4-1, and the three stars went to Raymond, Gaudreau, and Wideman.
Finally, the Anaheim Ducks host the St. Louis Blues. Brian Elliott and Frederik Andersen are in the blue paint.
