Slow day in both leagues, so we'll condense the post to one for hockey today. We begin with...
Slovan Bratislava hosting Jokerit Helsinki in the lone KHL game. Riku Helenius and Jaroslav Janus protect the nets. Bratislava started in the first period on a Ziga Jeglic goal, going in unassisted. Slovan added on with a Tomas Netik goal, with a lone assist by Rok Ticar. Helsinki got on the board in the second period on a Ryan Gunderson power play goal, powered by Juhamatti Aaltonen and Niko Kapanen. Bratislava replied on a Tomas Starosta power play goal, courtesy of Netik and Ticar. Jokerit answered with an unassisted goal by Tomi Maki. Slovan extended the lead on a Milan Bartovic goal, via Michal Vondrka and Ivan Baranka. Bratislava padded the lead in the third period as Vondrka scored an unassisted goal. Slovan iced it at 6-2 with a Vaclav Nedorost goal, going in unassisted. The three stars went to Netik, Vondrka, and Ticar.
In the NHL, we begin with the Buffalo Sabres welcoming the Ottawa Senators. Robin Lehner and Jhonas Enroth are set to start in goal. Ottawa struck first in the first period with a Bobby Ryan goal, his seventh of the season, coming off of Mike Hoffman and Mika Zibanejad. Buffalo tied it in the second period with a Rasmus Ristolainen power play goal, his second of the year, powered by Chris Stewart and Brian Gionta. The Sabres gained the lead with a Matt Moulson goal, his seventh of the season, assisted by Andrej Meszaros and Tyler Ennis. Buffalo added on with a Marcus Foligno goal, his fifth of the year, courtesy of Brian Flynn and Tyler Myers. The Senators got one back as Mark Stone scored his seventh of the season, thanks to Kyle Turris and Cody Ceci. Ottawa tied it on a third period goal by Curtis Lazar, made possible by Erik Condra and Alex Chiasson. The Senators took the lead with a Chiasson goal, his seventh of the year, with a lone assist by Mark Borowiecki. The Sabres retied it with a Flynn goal, his fourth of the season, via Foligno and Andre Benoit. Buffalo won 5-4 in the shootout with a lone tally by Moulson. The three stars were given to Flynn, Foligno, and Chiasson.
Across the state, the New York Islanders bring in the New Jersey Devils. Keith Kinkaid is mismatched with Jaroslav Halak in goal. New Jersey was first to score in the first period on a Marek Zidlicky power play goal, his fourth of the season, powered by Scott Gomez and Jaromir Jagr. The Devils added on with Gomez's second of the year, guided in by Jagr and Zidlicky. New York got on the board in the second period as Josh Bailey potted his fifth of the season, with the help of Ryan Strome and Mikhail Grabovski. The Islanders tied it in the third period on a Matt Martin goal, his fourth of the year, fueled by Casey Cizikas and Calvin de Haan. In the shootout, Kyle Okposo and Gomez cancelled each other out before a Bailey tally lifted the Islanders to a 3-2 win. The three stars were Gomez, Zidlicky, and Jagr.
The last game of the day has the Pittsburgh Penguins host the Tampa Bay Lightning. Ben Bishop and Marc-Andre Fleury occupy the creases. Pittsburgh opened in the first period with a Brandon Sutter shorthanded goal, his seventh of the season, set up by Rob Scuderi. Tampa Bay tied it on a Jonathan Drouin power play goal, his second of the year, powered by Tyler Johnson and Nikita Kucherov. The Penguins regained the lead in the second period when Bryan Rust put one behind Evgeni Nabokov, with the help of Andrew Ebbett. Pittsburgh added on a Steve Downie power play goal, his fifth of the season, coming off of Patric Hornqvist and Evgeni Malkin. The Penguins extended the lead in the third period on a Brian Dumoulin goal, passed from Downie and Nick Spaling. The Lightning got one back with a Kucherov goal, his twelfth of the year, with a lone helper by Valtteri Filppula. This only made it 4-2, the final, with the three stars going to Downie, Kucherov, and Dumoulin.
