New York led off in the first period with a Chris Kreider goal, his twenty-first of the season, via Vincent Trocheck and K'Andre Miller. The Rangers added on with a Filip Chytil goal, his nineteenth of the year, courtesy of Kaapo Kakko and Miller. Vancouver got on the board with a Conor Garland goal, his tenth of the season, assisted by Quinn Hughes. New York added on with an Alexis Lafreniere goal, his eighth of the year, coming off of Jacob Trouba and Miller in the second period. The Canucks pulled one back with a Vasily Podkolzin goal, helped along by J.T. Miller. The Rangers replied in the third period with a Mika Zibanejad goal, his twenty-fifth of the season, fueled by Trouba and Artemi Panarin. Vancouver got one back on an Elias Pettersson goal, his twenty-second of the year, guided in by Hughes and Brock Boeser. The final held at 4-3, with the three stars going to Miller, Trouba, and Hughes.

Down in Dallas, the Stars bring in the Minnesota Wild. Filip Gustavsson and Jake Oettinger are the masked men. Dallas got going in the second period with a Jamie Benn goal, his twentieth of the season, assisted by Wyatt Johnston and Esa Lindell. The Stars added on with a Radek Faksa goal, his seventh of the year, passed from Tyler Seguin and Mason Marchment. Dallas extended the lead as Jani Hakanpaa scored his fifth of the season, thanks to Roope Hintz and Jason Robertson.
