Just three games on this Wednesday, beginning with...
The New York Rangers hosting the Ottawa Senators. Anders Nilsson and Henrik Lundqvist man the nets.

The Senators added on with a Zack Smith shorthanded goal, his ninth of the year, with a lone assist by Magnus Paajarvi. Ottawa extended the lead in the second period as Tkachuk scored a power play goal, his twenty-second of the season, with the help of Colin White and Thomas Chabot. New York got on the board with a Lias Andersson shorthanded goal, his second of the year, set up by Vladislav Namestnikov and Brendan Smith. The Senators replied in the third period with a Brian Gibbons goal, his eighth of the campaign, coming off of White. This made it 4-1, the final, with the three stars given to Tkachuk, White, and Nilsson (27 for 28 in saves).
