Just two games on tonight, beginning with...
The Pittsburgh Penguins hosting the Edmonton Oilers. Mikko Koskinen and Matt Murray are the goalies. Edmonton led off in the first period with a Leon Draisaitl goal, his thirty-third of the season, courtesy of Connor McDavid and Oscar Klefbom. Pittsburgh tied it in the second period on a Bryan Rust shorthanded goal, his sixteenth of the year, set up by Matt Cullen and Brian Dumoulin. The Penguins took the lead on a Teddy Blueger goal, his third of the season, made possible by Kris Letang and Sidney Crosby. Pittsburgh iced it at 3-1 with a Jared McCann empty net goal in the third period, his eleventh of the year, going in unassisted. The three stars were Murray (38 for 39 in saves), Blueger, and Rust.
Out west, the Anaheim Ducks host the Vancouver Canucks. Jacob Markstrom and Kevin Boyle are in the creases. Anaheim began in the first period with a Jakob Silfverberg goal, his thirteenth of the season, assisted by Devin Shore and Derek Grant. This stood as the game's only goal, with the three stars of the 1-0 game being Boyle (35 save shutout), Silfverberg, and Markstrom (20 for 21 in saves).
