Tonight, we have only three games. The first is in Ottawa, with the Senators hosting the New York Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist and Craig Anderson wear the masks. Ottawa struck first in the second period on the tenth of the season by Milan Michalek, assisted by the tenth assist of the season by Jason Spezza and Erik Karlsson. New York answered on the eighth of the year by Marian Gaborik, fueled by Derek Stepan. The Rangers grabbed the lead with a Stepan goal, his third of the season, with a pass by Artem Anisimov. New York added on again with Gaborik's second of the night and ninth of the year, while Stepan and Anisimov helped out again. The Senators got one back as Nick Foligno potted his fourth of the season, via Stephane Da Costa and Bobby Butler. They failed to get an equalizer, leaving them with a 3-2 loss, and giving the three stars to Gaborik, Stepan, and Michalek, with honorable mention for Anisimov.
Down the East Coast to Tampa Bay, where the Lightning host the Philadelphia Flyers. Ilya Bryzgalov and Dwayne Roloson play in front of the nets. Philadelphia got on the board with a Scott Hartnell power play goal in the second period, his sixth of the season being powered by Jakub Voracek and Kimmo Timonen. Tampa Bay tied it in the third period with the third of the year by Marc-Andre Bergeron, a power play goal made possible by Steven Stamkos and Vincent Lecavalier. The game went into overtime, where the Lightning beat the Flyers with a Brett Connolly goal, his third of the campaign, guided in by Dominic Moore and Pavel Kubina. The three stars went to Connolly, Roloson (14 for 15 in saves), and Martin St. Louis, although any point getter would be a third star quality player.
Westward, as we wrap up with the Anaheim Ducks hosting the Nashville Predators. Pekka Rinne and Jonas Hiller are taking care of the cages. Nashville opened with Craig Smith potting his sixth of the season, with the help of Patric Hornqvist. The Predators added on with Colin Wilson recording his eighth of the year, and he got assistance from Hornqvist and Smith. Anaheim got on the board late in the period with a Cam Fowler goal, helped through by Brandon McMillan and Peter Holland. Nashville re-extended their lead with Martin Erat converting a penalty shot for his second goal of the season, and it all came to fruition because of a Lubomir Visnovsky hook. The Ducks didn't let it keep them down, as Francois Beauchemin registered his second of the year, assisted by Corey Perry and Bobby Ryan. The Predators made it 4-2 with the second of the night and seventh of the season by Smith, fueled by Wilson and Hornqvist. This was the final, where Erat, Smith, and Beauchemin were the official three stars, and the honorable mentions go to Hornqvist with the sock trick.

We have nine games for your inner hockey fan to enjoy tonight. We begin in...
Washington, D.C., with the Capitals hosting the Dallas Stars. Kari Lehtonen and Michal Neuvirth will be in the nets. Dallas led off with the fifth of the season by Michael Ryder, assisted by Trevor Daley and Jamie Benn. Washington answered with an Alexander Semin power play goal, his third of the year, powered by Nicklas Backstrom and Brooks Laich. Ryder gave the Stars the lead back with his second of the game and sixth of the season, fueled by Benn and Loui Eriksson. The Capitals tied it in the second period with the second of the year for John Carlson, set up by Cody Eakin and Marcus Johansson. Dallas fired back in the third period with Adam Burish notching his third of the season, thanks to Brenden Morrow. The Stars extended the lead on a Benn power play goal, his fifth of the campaign, guided in by Burish and Sheldon Souray. Dallas made it 5-2, the eventual final with Eric Nystrom's fourth of the year, and Radek Dvorak picked up the lone helper. The three stars went to Benn, Ryder, and Daley, although Burish deserves mention too.
Up to Toronto, where the Maple Leafs host the Florida Panthers. Jose Theodore and Jonas Gustavsson got the starts, but Ben Scrivens relieved Gustavsson in the second period. Florida opened with a Jack Skille goal off of Mike Weaver. The Panthers added on in the second period with Marco Sturm scoring, via Skille and Keaton Ellerby. Tomas Kopecky kept Florida in control with his third of the season, made possible by Dmitry Kulikov's tenth assist and Scottie Upshall.

Buffalo found another tying goal with the sixth of the year by Jason Pominville, a shorthanded goal fueled by Gaustad. Little got the Jets back in front in the second period with his second of the game, a power play goal set up by Dustin Byfuglien and Tim Stapleton. Now, we usually don't mention fights here, but Glass' scrap with Cody McCormick about midway through the second period earned him the infamous Gordie Howe Hat Trick, the first such of the year if my memory is right, so congratulations are in order. The Sabres tied it again with the ninth of the season for Thomas Vanek, a power play goal powered by Brad Boyes and Roy. Byfuglien gave Winnipeg yet another lead in the third period with his second of the year, and he received the puck from Wheeler to make it happen. Buffalo found yet another equalizer though, in the form of Roy's second of the night and fourth of the season, a power play goal made possible by Pominville and Christian Ehrhoff. This tie at 5 lasted into overtime, where the Sabres downed the Hurricanes with Vanek netting his tenth of the year and second of the game, receiving help from Pominville and Marc-Andre Gragnani. The three stars of this 6-5 game were awarded to Pominville, Roy, and Little, and the many honorable mentions include Byfuglien, Glass, Wheeler, Vanek, and Gaustad.

Montreal stayed alive on the sixth of the season by Max Pacioretty, fueled by Tomas Plekanec and P.K. Subban. Edmonton put them down by a 3-1 margin on the seventh of the year for Smyth, and empty net goal with the lone assist by Shawn Horcoff. The three stars were Khabibulin (28 for 29 in saves), Jones, and Michael Cammalleri, although Smyth had a much better case for the third slot.
To the tri-state area, with the New Jersey Devils hosting the Carolina Hurricanes. Cam Ward and Martin Brodeur were playing in the creases. Carolina led off with the fourth of the season for Brandon Sutter, a shorthanded and unassisted goal. New Jersey tied it in the second period with Dainius Zubrus notching his fourth of the year, via Anton Volchenkov and Patrik Elias.

The final was 5-2 Red Wings, thanks to Franzen using his eighth of the year to make the score as such, completing the hat trick with the unassisted goal. Franzen, Lidstrom, and Filppula were the three stars.
To a more central location, with the St. Louis Blues hosting the Chicago Blackhawks. Corey Crawford and Jaroslav Halak tend to the twines. St. Louis opened with a Vladimir Sobotka goal, assisted by Kevin Shattenkirk and Barret Jackman. The Blues made it 2-0 in the second period with a power play goal by Chris Stewart, his third of the season, powered by T.J. Oshie and Carlo Colaiacovo.

Lastly, the Los Angeles Kings host the Nashville Predators. Anders Lindback stands 200 feet away from Jonathan Bernier as the backups do battle. Los Angeles opened with an Alec Martinez goal, coming on the power play from Justin Williams and Jarret Stoll.

Los Angeles took the lead back with Mike Richards registering his third of the season, thanks to Dustin Brown and Dustin Penner. The Kings extended the lead as Simon Gagne put his fifth of the year away, with the help of Penner and Williams. Nashville made a valiant attempt at overcoming the deficit with Patric Hornqvist sinking his seventh of the campaign, with the help of Ryan Suter and Martin Erat, but they failed to get the equalizer and lost 4-3. The three stars were Stoll, Doughty, and Suter, wiht honorable mentions to Penner and Williams.

Sunday Night game week 9
This week we have a long standing rivalry game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens at Heinz Field. Baltimore led off with an 18 yard chip shot field goal for Billy Cundiff. Pittsburgh replied in the second quarter with a 36 yard field goal by Shaun Suisham. The Ravens took the lead back on Cundiff's 43 yard field goal. Suisham tied it at 6 with a 30 yard field goal.

The Ravens extended their lead in the third quarter with a Ray Rice touchdown run of 4 yards, and Cundiff made the extra point. Pittsburgh pulled back on a 1 yard touchdown run by Rashard Mendenhall, with Suisham putting the game within three after the extra point. The Steelers got a 20-16 lead with a 25 yard touchdown connection between Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Wallace, followed up by a Suisham PAT. With eight sec-onds (left in overtime, she's on your mind...) Joe Flacco threw 26 yards for a touchdown to Torrey Smith, and Cundiff's extra point left the score at 23-20. This was a final, and Baltimore moved to 6-2 while dropping their rivals to 6-3.
