NHL 2017-18 Day 45

Just two games on today, beginning with...

The Columbus Blue Jackets hosting the New York Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist and Sergei Bobrovsky protect the nets. Columbus got going in the second period with a Zach Werenski goal, his sixth of the season, passed from Brandon Dubinsky and Boone Jenner. The Blue Jackets added on in the third period with an Artemi Panarin power play goal, his fourth of the year, powered by Oliver Bjorkstrand. This made it 2-0, the final, with the three stars given to Bobrovsky (36 save shutout), Werenski, and Panarin.

Up in Detroit, the Red Wings host the Buffalo Sabres. Robin Lehner and Jimmy Howard are the masked men. Detroit dented the scoreboard in the second period with a Luke Glendening goal, his fifth of the season, helped along by Darren Helm. Buffalo tied it in the third period with a Ryan O'Reilly goal, his seventh of the year, via Kyle Okposo and Victor Antipin. The Red Wings retook the lead on a Tomas Tatar goal, his fifth of the season, assisted by Justin Abdelkader. Detroit added on with a Dylan Larkin goal, his fourth of the year, coming off of Xavier Ouellet and Abdelkader. The final stood at 3-1, with the three stars awarded to Tatar, Abdelkader, and Howard (19 for 20 in saves).
