  • November 5th, 2018 — News and Notes

    Today is Monday, November 5th, 2018 and these are your news and notes…

    There were three contests last night.

     

     

    Brayden Point had a stellar game in netting the game-tying goal with less than 30 seconds left in regulation and recorded an assist on Yanni Gourde’s game-winning goal in the overtime frame to move the Tampa Bay Lightning to a record of 10-3-1.  Tampa Bay is now the second team so far this season to have won at least 10 games with Nashville winning 11 games so far.

    Tampa Bay has won each of their first seven contests against foes from the Eastern Conference for the first time in franchise history.

    The League record for this mark is 12 contests.

     

     

    The New York Rangers scored two goals in 19 seconds and G Henrik Lundqvist made 39 saves to give the Rangers their third consecutive win.  This was the fifth time the Rangers would score two goals in the first minute of the contest and the first since March 24, 1982, when they did it against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

    For Lundqvist, he earned his 435th career win and moved within two wins of tying Jacques Plante for 437 career wins.

     

     

    Cam Fowler in this contest recorded his first career hat-trick, scoring the game-winner just 39 seconds into overtime. Fowler became only the seventh defenceman in NHL history to complete the hat trick with an overtime winner.

    These goals would move him into a second-place tie with Francois Beauchemin on the franchise all-time list among defencemen.

  • October 22nd, 2018 News and Notes

     

    These are your news and notes for Monday, October 22nd, 2018:

     

    In the NHL yesterday there were three contests…

    • First, the Tampa Bay Lightning registered a franchise-record 55 shots on goal to defeat the Chicago Blackhawks 6-3. Tampa Bay is 5-1-1 on the season thus far and is 6-0-1 in the last seven contests against Chicago.Tampa Bay recorded 33 shots on goal during the second period, the highest total in a period since the 1997-98 season.

      Brayden Point had his first game-winner of the season and the 15th of his career in 157 games played. There are only three other players who have more since debuting in the NHL in the 2016-17 season.

    • Johnny Gaudreau registered his 300th NHL point in his 320th game last night as the Calgary Flames went on to rout the New York Rangers 4-1.Gaudreau would score twice to reach the milestone and helped lead the Flames to a record of 5-3-0 on the season. Calgary won at Madison Square Garden for the first time since the 2008-09 season.

    • The Buffalo Sabres defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-2, after a pre-game ceremony for the retirement of Paul Kariya’s number at Honda Center. There is more on Paul Kariya’s number retirement in the NHL news section.

     

    Yesterday’s results:

    • Tampa Bay 6, CHICAGO 3
    • Calgary 4, NY RANGERS 1
    • Buffalo 4, ANAHEIM 2

     

    In the NWHL yesterday…

    The Minnesota Whitecaps went on to defeat the Metropolitan Riveters 6-2. This would also mark a season-sweep of the Riveters in the second half of games in New Jersey.

    Whitecaps G Amanda Leveille registered 26 shots and continued to dominate the Riveters all game. Leveille is 4-0-0 against Metropolitan this season and 9-4-0 in 13 matchups all time against the Riveters.

    The Whitecaps trio of Allie Thunstrom, Katie McGovern, and Joanna Curtis all made the scoresheet.

    The only possible time that the Riveters will face the Whitecaps again is if there is a potential playoff matchup.

    Minnesota would jump out to a 3-0 lead before the Riveters would notch their first goal of the game with less than 2:30 left in the second period, as the Whitecaps were dominating the Riveters throughout the first 30 minutes of the game. The Whitecaps would also find a recipe of success in this contest by shooting and scoring.

    Four different scores for the Whitecaps would define the dominance in this contest.

    The Riveters look to bounce back from back-to-back losses on Saturday when the Riveters visit the Boston Pride at Warrior Ice Arena.

    For Minnesota, they look to extend their 4-0-0 start when they have a back-to-back slate of games next weekend when they face off against the Buffalo Beauts at TRIA Rink.
