Jaroslav Halák in action during the Vancouver – Columbus match.

The Canucks turned from 0 to 3 and claimed their fifth victory in the series. The Slovak goalkeeper eliminated 20 of the 23 shots of the visiting players.

He achieved an 87.5 percent success rate, with no puck behind his back from the second period and his first victory in the Vancouver jersey.

Eric Robinson overcame Halák twice in the opening 20 minutes, once Max Domi, but coach Bruce Boudreau held the experienced Slovak goalkeeper, did not replace him and he paid him for it.

After an unconvincing first period, when he scored three goals out of twelve shots, he “pulled the blind” and turned his first start from November 28 into a victory.

The Canucks succeeded in five consecutive games in February 2020. Under the leadership of new coach Boudreau, who replaced Travis Green, the team from western Canada has not yet lost.

The Canucks decided the triumph in the overtime 59 seconds before the end with his second goal in the match Bo Horvat. Elias Pettersson and Vasily Podkolzin also made a name for themselves. Quinn Hughes recorded three assists.

The New Jersey Devils lost to Tomáš Tatar and Marián Studenič 1: 6 in Philadelphia. Neither of the Slovak attackers scored, they both scored one “minuska”.

The star of the duel was Flyers striker Cam Atkinson, who recorded the seventh career hint and added assistance. “Goal scoring is my job in the team, but it wasn’t just about me. We gave a very good team performance and I believe we set out on the right path, “Atkinson, who shot six haters in a Columbus jersey, told nhl.com.

The “pilots” recorded the third triumph in a row after a ten-match series of losses. The Devils fail, they have lost nine of the past eleven shows. New Jersey had to do without Captain Nico Hischier and defenders Ryan Greaves with Slovak Christián Jaroš, who are on the covid list.

Tatar was on the ice for 14 and a half minutes, recorded two shooting attempts and sat on the bench for two minutes. Studenic, who entered the NHL for the first time since November 2 after being called by the Devils from the farm, fired one shot on goal in 12 minutes on the ice.

The Detroit hockey team ended the series of three losses when they defeated the New York Islanders 2: 1 on the home ice. The goalkeeper Alex Nedeljkovic, who caught 33 guests, shoved him and Anders Lee prepared him for a shutout two and a half minutes before the end.

“The boys played a great match in defense and made it very easy for me. They were very consistent and responsible, “said goalkeeper Red Wings. Detroit’s goals were scored by Dylan Larkin and Michael Rasmussen.

The Slovak defender Zdeno Chára, who was on the ice for 19 minutes and 20 seconds, scored a negative point and three hits, also presented himself in the “islanders” jersey. The Islanders missed the first formation covid center of Matthew Barzal.

Dallas in line with Andrej Seker was not enough for St. Louis and lost to the Blues in front of the home fans 1: 4. Fourth victory in the fourth match in the jersey of St. Louis caught Charlie Lindgren, who was the third or fourth Blues goalkeeper in the hierarchy before the season.

After Jordan Binnington’s unit and couple Ville Husso traveled to the covid list, the 27-year-old American had a chance and took advantage of it. Lindgren caught 33 shots and became the second goalkeeper to win the first four Blues games. Before him, only Ryan Miller (2013-2014) did it.

Dallas opened the scoring in the second period when 21-year-old Canadian Riley Damiani made his NHL debut, but no more goals were added by the home team.

Vladimir Tarasenko (1 + 2) scored three points in the Blues jersey, the defenders Colton Parayko with Justin Faulk and captain Ryan O’Reilly also entered the shooting list. The ax played for 13 minutes and scored a plus point.

The Edmonton hockey players suffered their sixth loss in a series. The Oilers were not good enough in the Canadian derby on Toronto, which they lost 1: 5 at home. Auston Matthews scored two goals in the guest jersey. He became the second Maple Leafs player to score a minimum of 20 goals in each of the first six seasons of the NHL.

Before him, Dave Keon did it in 1960-1966. The oilers duo Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid were left without a point in the second game behind them.

Edmonton lacked coach Dave Tippett, who was drafted shortly before the match.
