Today’s Canadian-American NHL menu had eight games. The star of the round is Jiří Kulich, who was involved in all the Sabres’ goals, winning on the ice of the Canucks 3:2.
Goals only work for Montreal. Montembeault made 33 saves today and helped Tampa Bay earn a valuable 3:2 win. Sesťorkin also excelled in the goal area, not allowing a single tick to get behind him, as the Rangers cruised to a 5-0 win over Ottawa.
An interesting shooting was witnessed in Nashville. San Jose led 4:1 after the first period, even 5:1 in the twenty-fifth minute, but Nashville ordered a spectacular turnaround and won the game 7:5 in front of their own fans.
