NHL 2016/17 - Day 125

Only two games on today, beginning with...

The St. Louis Blues welcoming the Florida Panthers. James Reimer and Jake Allen are the goalies. Florida led off in the first period with a Jonathan Marchessault goal, his seventeenth of the season, assisted by Nick Bjugstad. St. Louis tied it in the third period with a Kyle Brodziak goal, his seventh of the year, coming off of Scottie Upshall and Ryan Reaves. The Panthers won 2-1 with a Vincent Trocheck goal, his twenty-first of the campaign, via Mark Pysyk. The three stars went to Trocheck, Reimer (26 for 27 in saves), and Marchessault.

The other game has the Arizona Coyotes bringing in the Anaheim Ducks. Jonathan Bernier and Mike Smith play in the creases. Arizona began in the first period with a Christian Dvorak goal, his tenth of the season, fueled by Shane Doan and Brendan Perlini. The Coyotes added on with a Jakob Chychrun goal, his fourth of the year, helped along by Ryan White and Tobias Rieder. Arizona extended the lead as Radim Vrbata scored his twelfth of the season, thanks to Max Domi and Luke Schenn. John Gibson replaced Bernier for the second period. Anaheim got on the board in the second period with a Ryan Getzlaf goal, his tenth of the year, guided in by Josh Manson and Nick Ritchie. The Ducks got one back in the third period on another Getzlaf goal, his second of the game and eleventh of the campaign, made possible by Sami Vatanen and Cam Fowler. This only made it 3-2, the final, with the three stars going to Vrbata, Getzlaf, and Chychrun.
