Three games today, beginning in the afternoon with...
The Toronto Maple Leafs hosting the Los Angeles Kings. Jonathan Quick and James Reimer are the goalies. Toronto struck first in the first period on a Mike Santorelli goal, his sixth of the season, fueled by Daniel Winnik and Korbinian Holzer. The Maple Leafs added on with a Cody Franson goal, his fifth of the year, courtesy of Nazem Kadri and Santorelli. Los Angeles got on the board in the second period with a Justin Williams goal, his eighth of the season, passed from Kyle Clifford and Alec Martinez. The Kings tied it on a Dwight King goal, his third of the year, assisted by Robyn Regehr and Martinez. Los Angeles took the lead on a Marian Gaborik third period goal, his fifth of the season, made possible by Williams and Jarret Stoll. Toronto tied it as James van Riemsdyk scored his thirteenth of the year, a power play goal powered by Franson and Phil Kessel. The tie lasted to a shootout, where Joffrey Lupul's lone tally led the Maple Leafs to a 4-3 victory. The three stars went to Santorelli, Franson, and Williams, while Martinez gets an honorable mention.
Down in Chicago, the Blackhawks welcome the Calgary Flames. Jonas Hiller and Antti Raanta are set to start in goal. Calgary got going in the second period on a Jiri Hudler goal, his twelfth of the season, assisted by Johnny Gaudreau and T.J. Brodie. Chicago tied it on a Patrick Sharp goal, his fourth of the year, a power play goal powered by Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane. The Blackhawks took the lead in the third period on a Brandon Saad goal, his seventh of the season, courtesy of Toews and Niklas Hjalmarsson. This produced the 2-1 final, with the three stars going to Raanta (23 for 24 in saves), Toews, and Saad.
Finally, in Edmonton, the Oilers bring in the New York Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist and Ben Scrivens are in the blue paint. New York was first to score in the first period on a Dan Girardi goal, his second of the season, with assists provided by Rick Nash and Mats Zuccarello. The Rangers iced it at 2-0 with an empty net goal by Carl Hagelin, his sixth of the year, set up by Dominic Moore. The three stars went to Lundqvist (16 save shutout), Girardi, and Hagelin.
