That’s exactly what they did. A 6-4 win. Rough day at the office for Jesperi Kotkaniemi , who took a puck to the helmet.

One could expect a drubbing of one of the best teams in the league against one of the worst, but Buffalo played spoiler. A 8-5 win. Despite the loss, Alex Ovechkin found the back of the net (his 890th goal) and is now five goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s record.

3. A goal scored in Pittsburgh In the game between the Senators and Penguins, one could expect a minimum of action. Only one goal was scored.
And that goal was scored in overtime. Who else but Sidney Crosby to give the win to his team? SID WITH THE OT ONE TIME BOMB pic.twitter.

Sidney Crosby extended his point streak to 10 games with his 24th career overtime goal – the only player in NHL history with as many is Alex Ovechkin (27).
