Recap Roundups
March 04, 2017
Winnipeg 6, Colorado 1
The Colorado Avalanche dodged a bullet Saturday night, but still took a serious shot to their waning confidence as they remain in the cellar of the NHL standings. The Avalanche were a mere 15.4 seconds away from being blanked for an 11th time this season, as the Winnipeg Jets exposed the NHL's worst team 6-1 at MTS Centre.
Boston 3, New Jersey 2
Drew Stafford had a goal taken away, but that was not about to ruin his first night with his new team.
Tampa Bay 2, Buffalo 1
With a goal for the ages, Nikita Kucherov has the Tampa Bay Lightning back in the thick of the wild-card race.
Ottawa 3, Columbus 2
Craig Anderson was beaten by the first shot and last shot he faced but stopped all 25 in between on Saturday night.
Dallas 2, Florida 1
SUNRISE, Fla.-- The Dallas Stars used a lucky bounce at the end and some great goaltending to break their six-game road losing streak.
Montreal 4, NY Rangers 1
Carey Price continued his mastery over the New York Rangers Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, making 26 saves and leading the Montreal Canadiens to a 4-1 victory in the opener of their four-game road trip.
Washington 2, Philadelphia 1
On a night when the penalty killers were dominant for the Washington Capitals and Philadelphia Flyers, the Capitals' power play was the one that finally broke through.
Chicago 5, Nashville 3
If Saturday's battle between the Nashville Predators and the Chicago Blackhawks was indeed a playoff preview, expect a lively first-round battle.
Vancouver 4, Los Angeles 3
The Vancouver Canucks came into Staples Center with nothing more at stake than playing for pride and departed with a victory that slowed the Los Angeles Kings drive for the postseason.
Edmonton 4, Detroit 3
NHL points leader Connor McDavid had the kind of game that had opposition players raving about him.
