Recap Roundups
March 16, 2017
New Jersey 6, Philadelphia 2
Steve Mason had injury added to insult Thursday night as the Philadelphia Flyers dropped a 6-2 decision to the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center.
Winnipeg 4, NY Islanders 2
The Winnipeg Jets didn't think an unexpected day off earlier in the week did them any favors Thursday night. The New York Islanders certainly looked as if they would have been happy to take the day off the Jets didn't want.
Nashville 2, Washington 1
Suddenly playing extra time isn't such a losing proposition for the Nashville Predators.
Carolina 3, Minnesota 1
Eddie Lack's season can best be described as tumultuous. The backup goalie for the Carolina Hurricanes missed two large portions of the season with a concussion, and when he returned in early February his play wasn't up to par, prompting some colorful criticism from coach Bill Peters.
Columbus 2, Florida 1
John Tortorella has said the bridge to cross this season for the Columbus Blue Jackets was to expect to win. Now he's working to let his players handle the adversity that comes in late-season and playoff games.
Chicago 2, Ottawa 1
It must be almost spring. The Chicago Blackhawks are heating up.
Toronto 5, Tampa Bay 0
Toronto had 13 different players record a point and routed the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-0 in an important late-season meeting.
Edmonton 7, Boston 4
The Edmonton Oilers erupted for seven goals for the second straight game Thursday, pounding the Boston Bruins 7-4 two days after lighting up the Dallas Stars 7-1.
Dallas 4, Vancouver 2
Tyler Seguin wanted to see more pride from his team Thursday night -- and he did.
Detroit 5, Arizona 4
The Detroit Red Wings and Arizona Coyotes owned the NHL's two best shootout records entering Thursday's game at Gila River Arena. Something had to give, and it was No. 2 giving way to No. 1.
Los Angeles 2, Buffalo 0
Jarome Iginla has been with the Los Angeles Kings for just 2 1/2 weeks, but long enough to see they don't squeeze their sticks any tighter late in close games.
St. Louis 4, San Jose 1
When the St. Louis Blues play the second night of a back-to-back, they're simply at their best.
