Just three games on tonight, beginning with...
The Minnesota Wild hosting the Calgary Flames. Karri Ramo and Devan Dubnyk are in the creases. Calgary began in the first period on a Josh Jooris goal, his twelfth of the season, coming off of Matt Stajan and Joe Colborne. Minnesota tied it on a Matt Dumba power play goal, his eighth of the year, powered by Mikael Granlund and Jared Spurgeon. The Wild took the lead in the third period on a Thomas Vanek goal, his twentieth of the season, assisted by Justin Fontaine and Charlie Coyle. Minnesota added on with a Mikko Koivu goal, his twelfth of the year, guided in by Chris Stewart and Jonas Brodin. The Wild extended the lead on a Zach Parise goal, his thirtieth of the season, going in unassisted. Jonas Hiller relieved Ramo. The Flames got one back on a Markus Granlund goal, his sixth of the year, courtesy of Mason Raymond and Paul Byron. This made it 4-2, the final, with the three stars going to Koivu, Parise, and Vanek.
Down in Chicago, the Blackhawks welcome the Columbus Blue Jackets. Sergei Bobrovsky and Corey Crawford tend the twines. Chicago led off in the first period on a Brandon Saad goal, his twenty-second of the season, courtesy of Johnny Oduya and Patrick Sharp. Columbus tied it on a Ryan Johansen goal, his twenty-fifth of the year, going in unassisted. The Blue Jackets took the lead on a Cam Atkinson goal, his seventeenth of the season, passed from Cody Goloubef. The Blackhawks tied it as Jonathan Toews scored his twenty-fourth of the year, with the help of Oduya and Kris Versteeg. Columbus regained the lead with a Kevin Connauton goal, his ninth of the season, an unassisted. The Blue Jackets added on with another Atkinson goal, his second of the game and eighteenth of the year, a shorthanded goal set up by Goloubef and Artem Anisimov. Crawford was pulled for Scott Dartling in goal. Columbus finished it at 5-2 on an Atkinson empty net goal to complete his hat trick, his nineteenth of the campaign, with assists provided by Nick Foligno and Johansen. The three stars belonged to Atkinson, Johansen, and Goloubef, while Oduya gets an honorable mention.
Finally, the Edmonton Oilers bring in the Dallas Stars. Kari Lehtonen and Richard Bachman are set to start. Edmonton started in the first period on a Jordan Eberle goal, his twenty-second of the season, via Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Benoit Pouliot. The Oilers added on in the third period with a Derek Roy goal, his twelfth of the year, assisted by Nail Yakupov and Teddy Purcell. Edmonton extended the lead as Pouliot scored his seventeenth of the season, thanks to Taylor Hall and Justin Schultz. The Oilers won 4-0 with an Andrew Miller penalty shot goal after he was tripped by Jordie Benn. The three stars went to Pouliot, Bachman (29 save shutout), and Eberle.
