Just a pair of games on for today, beginning with...

The Toronto Maple Leafs hosting the St. Louis Blues. Jordan Binnington and Frederik Andersen protect the nets. St. Louis got going in the second period with an Oskar Sundqvist goal, courtesy of Ivan Barbashev and the goalie Binnington. Toronto tied it on a Frederik Gauthier goal, his second of the season, made possible by Jason Spezza and Nic Petan. The Maple Leafs took the lead with a William Nylander goal, his second of the year, coming off of Cody Ceci and Andreas Johnsson. The Blues retied it on a Brayden Schenn goal, his second of the season, assisted by Jaden Schwartz and Vladimir Tarasenko. St. Louis took the lead in the third period with an Alex Pietrangelo goal, his second of the year, passed from David Perron and Sammy Blais. This stood for a 3-2 win, with the three stars being Pietrangelo, Schenn, and Binnington (32 for 34 in saves).
