Recap Roundups
February 21, 2017
Ottawa 2, New Jersey 1
For the second time in less than a week, the Ottawa Senators skated out of the Prudential Center with two crucial road points after beating the New Jersey Devils 2-1 Tuesday night.
Montreal 3, NY Rangers 2
Paul Byron committed the cardinal sin during pregame warmups on Tuesday night and did so against Carey Price, considered by some in Montreal to be the second coming -- of Patrick Roy, anyway -- and left the goaltender wincing in pain.
Pittsburgh 3, Carolina 1
The Pittsburgh Penguins are showing how to play a winning brand of hockey late in games.
Toronto 5, Winnipeg 4
With both teams seemingly reluctant to finish off a back-and-forth game, Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake Gardiner grabbed the issue and put an emphatic end to it Tuesday night with his ninth goal of the season at 2:29 of overtime.
NY Islanders 3, Detroit 1
The Detroit Red Wings begin their bye week Wednesday, and the New York Islanders gave the Wings a bon voyage they won't soon forget.
Tampa Bay 4, Edmonton 1
Tampa Bay's "Triplets" line of Ondrej Palat, Nikita Kucherov and Tyler Johnson scored the Lightning's first three goals Tuesday, staying hot in a 4-1 victory over the Edmonton Oilers at Amalie Arena.
Calgary 6, Nashville 5
A wild, high-scoring game came to an appropriately bizarre finish Tuesday.
Chicago 5, Minnesota 3
There's a reason the Chicago Blackhawks send the Jonathan Toews' line onto the ice when they're in need of spark.
Los Angeles 2, Colorado 1
Peter Budaj has found a groove again -- and some luck.
