A calmer Sunday sees just two games on the schedule. First up...
The Philadelphia Flyers host the Boston Bruins. Jeremy Swayman and Felix Sandstrom are set to start in goal. Boston started in the first period with a Charlie Coyle goal, his fifteenth of the season, via Connor Carrick and Brad Marchand. Philadelphia tied it on an unassisted Wade Allison goal, his ninth of the year. The Bruins retook the lead in the second period with a David Pastrnak goal, his fifty-eighth of the season, coming off of Connor Clifton and Jakub Zboril. Boston added on with another Pastrnak goal, his second of the game and fifty-ninth of the year, with helpers from Tyler Bertuzzi and Pavel Zacha. The Flyers got one back with a Joel Farabee goal, his fourteenth of the season, made possible by Owen Tippett. The Bruins replied on a Pastrnak goal in the third period, completing his hat trick on his sixtieth of the year, assisted by Bertuzzi and Hampus Lindholm. Philadelphia countered with a Tippett goal, his twenty-fourth of the season, fueled by Farabee and Noah Cates. Boston shot back with a Zacha goal, his twenty-first of the year, guided in by Pastrnak and Bertuzzi. This made it 5-3, the final, with the three stars going to Pastrnak, Bertuzzi, and Zacha, while Tippett and Farabee get the honorable mentions.
Out west, the Anaheim Ducks host the Colorado Avalanche. Pavel Francouz and Lukas Dostal draw the starts in goal. Colorado opened in the first period with a J.T.

Anaheim got on the board with a Frank Vatrano goal, his twenty-first of the season, passed from Trevor Zegras and Ryan Strome. The Ducks tied it on an Adam Henrique goal, his twenty-second of the year, assisted by Cam Fowler. Anaheim pulled ahead in the third period with a Vatrano goal, his second of the game and twenty-second of the season, courtesy of Troy Terry and Kevin Shattenkirk. The Ducks extended the lead as Brett Leason scored his second of the year, thanks to Derek Grant and Jayson Megna. Colorado got one back with a Rantanen power play goal, his second of the game and fifty-fourth of the season, powered by Nathan MacKinnon and Toews. The Avalanche tied it on a MacKinnon power play goal, his thirty-eighth of the year, with assists provided by Rantanen and Nichushkin.
