Game # 5 CGY 1 CBJ 3 Danforth has goal and an assist, Martin stops 36 shots as Blue Jackets beat Flames 3-1 Justin Danforth scores goal vs. Flames ByAP Updated: Oct 20, 2023, 10:48 pm COLUMBUS, Ohio -- — Justin Danforth had a goal and an assist, backup goalie Spencer Martin stopped 36 shots to get his first win in nearly a year, and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Calgary Flames 3-1 on Friday night. Sean Kuraly and Zach Werenski also scored for the Blue Jackets, who rebounded from a 4-0 loss to Detroit on Monday. "There was a lot of good stuff from us," Kuraly said. Elias Lindholm scored, and Jacob Markstrom stopped 23 shots for Calgary. After a scoreless first period, Kuraly picked up a leading pass from Danforth in the neutral zone and unloaded from the right circle. The puck went in under Markstrom's arm to get Columbus on the board at 6:29 of the second with Kuraly's first goal of the season and 50th of his career. In the third period, Jack Roslovic brought the puck out from behind the Flames' net and passed across the crease to Danforth who finished it to give the Blue Jackets a 2-0 lead at 8:45. Danforth recorded his first multi-point game in the NHL. Less than two minutes later, Lindholm broke away and beat Martin for a short-handed goal to get the Flames on the board. But that would be it for Calgary. “(The Flames) had a press there in the second and third and Marty was lights out tonight and has a great game,” Danforth said. Werenski got an unassisted empty-netter with 2:21 left to seal the win. “They came out and pressed us hard,” Calgary center Mikael Backlund said. “They put a lot of pressure on us. They have a lot of fast forwards. We knew that going in. I thought we were a little sloppier than we have been in the past.” BETWEEN THE PIPES Merzlikins left last Saturday's win against the New York Rangers with an unspecified illness and then missed the loss to Detroit on Monday. He wasn't 100% on Friday, so Martin started in his place again. Martin, in his fourth NHL season, was claimed off waivers from Vancouver because of a knee injury to Daniil Tarasov. FIGHT NIGHT The Blue Jackets’ Cole Sillinger and Flames center Nazem Kadri dropped the gloves and traded some wild roundhouse punches in the first period. Both went to the box for fighting. Shortly after, Columbus killed a 5-on-3 Calgary power play. “I think that fight was huge for us,” Danforth said. “Just the young kid (who) dropped the gloves with a veteran guy like that. It shows a lot for our team, and it’s big for him to step up like that for himself. I think after that's when we started.” LAINE SHAKEN UP Columbus forward Patrik Laine took a shot to the head from Rasmus Andersson as the horn sounded to end the game. Laine's teammate Erik Gudbranson took exception and jumped Andersson before the ice was cleared. Laine was very slow to get up. “I see a hit to the head and (Andersson) lifting his feet," Columbus coach Pacal Vincent said. "I saw the replay. That’s illegal in my book. So we’ll let the NHL deal with it.”

I know you are a big fan of the Sutter style, but they have to score goals to win games, another one goal game, winning this one.

Game # 4 Flames 4 Buff 3 Adam Ruzicka scores the go-ahead goal for the Flames, who beat the sloppy Sabres 4-3 Adam Ruzicka scores goal vs. Sabres ByAP Updated: Oct 19, 2023, 11:10 pm BUFFALO, N.Y. -- — Adam Ruzicka scored the go-ahead goal on a bad-angle shot 4:35 into the third period, and the Calgary Flames overwhelmed the sloppy Buffalo Sabres and rookie goalie Devon Levi in a 4-3 win on Thursday night. Jonathan Huberdeau, Blake Coleman and Walker Duehr also scored in an outing the Flames peppered 37 shots on net, including MacKenzie Weegar nearly sneaking in a shot from just inside the center line. Dan Vladar stopped 24 shots in his season debut in net. The Flames improved to 1-1-1 three games into a five-game Eastern trip, and responded with a goal each time the Sabres tied the score, with their final two set up by forcing turnovers. “When they came back, we didn’t think about negative. I think we stuck with it,” Huberdeau said. “We saw a lot of character from the guys. It’s a big team win.” Tage Thompson, JJ Peterka and Erik Johnson scored for the Sabres. Levi stopped 33 shots, but appeared off his game in his fourth consecutive start of the season. Ruzicka scored on a shot from just above the goal line to beat Levi through the legs. Duehr scored Calgary’s second goal by slipping a shot through Levi’s legs from the right circle. And the night almost got worse for the 21-year-old when he appeared to be caught sleeping on Weegar’s shot with 11:12 left in the third period. Levi got his right pad down to stop the puck just inside the post. Officials ruled the puck did not go in, and their call stood following a lengthy review. Sabres coach Don Granato credited the Flames for putting his team and goalie on their heels by getting shots to the net, no matter the angle. “They were intent on creating chaos and capitalizing on it better than we were. We wanted to pass our way into the net,” Granato said, while saying he needed time to review the goals before rating Levi’s performance. What he didn’t need to review was his entire team’s performance by saying: “We created our own mess tonight. We were sloppy.” Turnovers were an issue. Ruzicka’s goal — scored 1:21 after Peterka tied it at 3 — was set up after Dillon Dube forced a turnover by Connor Clifton at the left boards. “That was an example of a guy staying with it,” Flames coach Ryan Huska said of Dube. “He competed hard on the wall, ended up winning a puck, and then it was a nice quick release that I’m guessing the goalie probably wasn’t ready for.” And the Flames went up 3-2 on Coleman’s goal 1:52 into the third period when Dennis Gilbert created a turnover at Calgary’s blue line by knocking Sabres rookie Zach Benson off the puck. Buffalo is carrying three goalies, but placing its faith in Levi, who closed last season by going 5-2 with the Sabres after completing his third college season at Northeastern. Levi also got little help in front of him in a sloppy outing for Buffalo that ended with the Sabres spending the final 67 seconds short-handed after being penalized for too many men. Johnson’s goal was his first in 69 regular-season games, dating to April 26, 2022, though the former Colorado player scored twice in the playoffs since. “Any time I can chip one in, it’s a bonus,” said Johnson of scoring his 89th career goal in his 924th game. “That’s not really what I’m known for anymore, but fun to contribute. Obviously I’d trade that for a win.”

Game # 3 Bos 3 SJS 1 Bruins beat the winless Sharks 3-1 for their 3rd straight win to open the season 1:47 Boston Bruins vs. San Jose Sharks: Full Highlights Boston Bruins vs. San Jose Sharks: Full Highlights ByAP Updated: Oct 20, 2023, 01:53 am SAN JOSE, Calif. -- — Brad Marchand and James van Riemsdyk scored 21 seconds apart late in the first period and the Boston Bruins won their third straight game to open the season, beating the San Jose Sharks 3-1 on Thursday night. David Pastrnak scored for the fourth time this season and Linus Ullmark made 26 saves to get the Bruins off to a good start on their four-game trip. “I think it’s a good opportunity to get on a little bit of a roll,” van Riemsdyk said. “We have a lot of kind of games in a short span and I think that’s good this time of year to kind of get in the rhythm of our playing games and going from there.” The Sharks wrapped up a season-opening, four-game homestand with another loss. San Jose earned only one point in the four games against reigning division champions, losing in a shootout to Colorado on Saturday night. The Sharks became the third team ever to go winless when opening the season with four straight games at home. The California Golden Seals had two losses and two ties in 1971-72 and Calgary had three losses and a tie in 1997-98. Anthony Duclair scored the lone goal for San Jose. Kaapo Kahkonen made 34 saves. “We made a step forward with the things we touched on after our last game," coach David Quinn said. "I thought we spent more time in the o-zone and there was definitely more possession and forechecking. But, we’ve got a long way to go to where we want to get to, and you’re not going to get from A to Z without going through the alphabet.” The Sharks have lost 12 straight against Boston for their longest losing streak ever against an opponent. San Jose got some decent opportunities early but the Bruins took control of the game in the final two minutes of the opening period. Marchand beat Kahkonen with a wrist shot from the circle for his first goal of the season. On the next shift, van Riemsdyk jammed a puck under Kahkonen's pad during a scramble in front of the net to make it 2-0. “I thought the first five minutes were good,” Bruins coach Jim Montgomery said. “I thought the the next 10 kind of blah and then the last five were really good.” Pastrnak got a bit of luck to score in his third straight game late in the second period. He was on a 2-on-1 rush when a back-checking Marc Edouard-Vlasic poked the puck away but it deflected off Pastrnak's skate and went into the net. ROUGH SCHEDULE The Sharks were dealt a rough opening to the schedule with games against the four division winners from last season: Vegas, Colorado, Carolina and Boston. This is the first time since the realignment to four divisions in 2013 that a team opened the season by playing all four defending division champs.

Not a bad outlook to have.... That and Cossa in waiting.

Penguins, Canucks make trade involving four players The Pittsburgh Penguins acquired defenseman Jack Rathbone and forward Karel Plasek from the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday in a trade for defenseman Mark Friedman and forward Ty Glover. "I would like to thank Jack for all the time he spent with our organization and always pushing hard when competing for a spot," Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin said. "It has been a tough couple of years for him and this will give him a fresh start. "The two players coming back in this trade will add to our depth as we continue to look at ways to improve our organization." Rathbone, 24, was a 2017 fourth-round pick and played in 28 games with the Canucks over the past three seasons, tallying two goals and three assists. He has scored one goal in two AHL games this season and will report to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. A native of the Czech Republic, Plasek, 23, was 2019 sixth-round pick. With HC Olomouc of Czechia in the 2022-23 season, Plasek notched six goals, nine assists and 15 points in 31 games. He will report to the Wheeling Nailers of the ECHL. Friedman, 27, played in 23 games with the Penguins last season. He has 12 career points (4 goals, 8 assists) over 65 games with the Penguins and Philadelphia Flyers. Glover, 23, had seven goals and five assists in 49 games with the AHL Penguins last season after signing an entry-level contract with Pittsburgh as an undrafted free agent.

Game #3 CGY 2 Caps 3 SO Matthew Phillips scores against his old team, Capitals beat the Flames 3-2 in a shootout 0:21 Caps beat Flames in shootout Nazem Kadri flicks his shot off the post as the Washington Capitals prevail in a shootout over the Calgary Flames. ByAP Updated: Oct 16, 2023, 10:37 pm WASHINGTON -- — Standing under the words “SOMETHING TO PROVE” painted above him in the Washington Capitals locker room, Matthew Phillips flashed a wide smile after scoring his first NHL goal against his old team, the Calgary Flames. “It feels pretty good," Phillips said. "I’ll leave it at that.” The 5-foot-7, 140-pound winger scored to spark a rally as the Capitals picked up their first win of the season by beating Calgary 3-2 in a shootout Monday night. Phillips, a 2016 sixth-round pick of the Flames who spent seven years in their organization, also assisted on Connor McMichael's goal three minutes after his and was one of the most dynamic players on the ice. Asked if he thought he'd score against Calgary, Phillips responded: “I like to picture myself scoring every night. ... I’m always trying to play my best every single game, and tonight was no different." Capitals goaltender Darcy Kuemper was also at his best, making 38 saves in regulation and overtime and three more in the shootout. It was his first game back since the birth of his first child, and Kuemper celebrated the victory by mimicking the motion of rocking a baby. “It just kind of came to me," Kuemper said. "I hadn’t thought about it going into it, but it just kind of happened, so it was funny.” Evgeny Kuznetsov scored the only goal in the shootout to cap the rally, making up for two ill-advised penalties he took earlier in the night. The Capitals were outshot 40-23, including 18-3 in the first period alone after giving up the game's first 13 before registering one. But Kuemper was sharp throughout, including a stop on a penalty shot by Blake Coleman with 14 minutes remaining in the third. “He’s got a little bit of that dad strength now and he was phenomenal tonight,” McMichael said. "He faced a lot of rubber, especially when we needed him and we weren’t playing our best. He kept us in that game.” After being shut out in the season opener and the first 26-plus minutes against the Flames, the Capitals' offensive outburst gave new coach Spencer Carbery his first NHL victory. Adam Ruzicka and Dillon Dube scored for the Flames, and goaltender Jacob Markstrom's struggles against the Capitals continued. Markstrom allowed two goals on 23 shots to fall to 1-8-2 against them during his career. “When you look at our three games, we’ve gotten better every game and that’s what we want to keep seeing,” rookie coach Ryan Huska said. “It’s a step in the right direction for us, for sure. Yes, we would have wanted the extra point, no doubt, and that at the end of the day is what it’s all about, but we’re getting there.”

If am not mistaken, Rossi and Faber had 1st career goals in the same game.

Game # 2 Bos 3 Preds 2 James van Riemsdyk scores 2 PP goals; Bruins beat Nashville 3-2 0:30 James van Riemsdyk scores on the power play for Bruins James van Riemsdyk scores on the power play for Bruins ByAP Updated: Oct 14, 2023, 10:53 pm BOSTON -- — James van Riemsdyk broke a tie with his second goal of the game early in the third period, David Pastrnak scored on a penalty shot, and the Boston Bruins beat the Nashville Predators 3-2 on Saturday night. Both of van Riemsdyk’s goals — his first two in his initial season with the Bruins — came on a power play. “Anytime you get your first one, it definitely helps you relax a little bit,” he said. “We moved the puck around pretty well and we made good plays just to get the puck to the net. We kept it simple and tried to get traffic down there and, obviously, we got rewarded.” Jeremy Swayman made 33 saves in his season debut for Boston (2-0), which killed seven penalties. Colton Sissons scored both goals for the Predators (1-2) and Juuse Saros made 28 stops. Saros has played all their games so far this season. “I think both sides of the special teams left wanting more tonight,” Sissons said. “We had a lot of opportunities on the power play, but we've got to do our job on the penalty kill.” Nashville went 0 for 7 on the power play. “That’s why we got that win,” Swayman said. “It was special to see guys stick to a game plan and not get down on themselves when we get penalty after penalty.” Positioned in the slot, van Riemsdyk tipped in Charlie McAvoy’s shot for the go-ahead goal 2:52 into the final period. Pastrnak’s goal — his third of the season — came with 5:14 left in the second, giving the Bruins a 2-1 edge. Pastrnak was awarded a penalty shot after Alexandre Carrier held his stick on a clean breakaway. Pastrnak slowly skated down the center and fired a wrist shot over Saros’ left shoulder. Nashville tied it with the goalie pulled for a delayed Boston penalty when Sissons tipped in Roman Josi’s shot from the point at 16:54. Coming off a shutout win over Seattle in their home opener, the Predators grabbed a 1-0 edge when Sissons one-timed Kiefer Sherwood’s drop pass inside the left post 3:29 into the game. Boston tied it on van Riemsdyk’s first goal at 14:48. He was attempting to center a pass from the side of the net when it caromed in off Nashville defenseman Dante Fabbro. With Nashville on a power play midway through the second period, Bruins defenseman Derek Forbort knocked the puck out of the crease just before it crossed the goal line. “When you lose the special team battle, it’s hard to win in this league,” Predators coach Andrew Brunette said. “We lost it pretty big time tonight.” NEW PACE Bruins coach Jim Montgomery feels like the Predators have a different approach this season after missing the playoffs. “They’re much more of a fastbreak team, more of a transition team than they were before,” he said.

Game #2 CGY 2 Pens 5 Malkin, Penguins surge past Flames with 5 goals in the third period for a 5-2 win 1:48 Calgary Flames vs. Pittsburgh Penguins: Full Highlights Calgary Flames vs. Pittsburgh Penguins: Full Highlights ByAP Updated: Oct 14, 2023, 11:14 pm PITTSBURGH -- — Evgeni Malkin had a goal and an assist during a five-goal third-period surge and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Calgary Flames 5-2 on Saturday night. Malkin tied Alexander Mogilny for third-most goals in NHL history among Russian-born players. Malkin, who scored his 473rd career goal, trails only Sergei Fedorov (483) and Alex Ovechkin (822). Malkin and the Penguins admittedly aren’t happy after their run of 16 consecutive playoff appearances ended last spring. “I want to win, I want to play hard,” Malkin said. “We don’t like to miss the playoffs. These points are the same two points in March or February.” Bryan Rust scored twice, including a late empty-net goal, while Reilly Smith and Jake Guentzel also scored during Pittsburgh’s big third-period comeback, as the Penguins won one night after shutting out Washington on the road. Alex Nedeljkovic stopped 34 shots for Pittsburgh. Nedeljkovic, who spent time with Detroit last season, made his first start for the Penguins. He’s played parts of six NHL seasons with Carolina and Detroit and was a finalist for the Calder Trophy, awarded to the league’s top rookie, in 2020-21. “It builds confidence and it feels good,” Nedeljkovic said. “I didn’t get many looks during the preseason, so it was good to get out there and have a good showing.” Matt Coronato’s first NHL goal was scored on the power play for Calgary. Jonathan Huberdeau scored his first of the season for the Flames, who opened a five-game road trip. Jacob Markstrom made 24 saves for the Flames. “The hard part is we had a good first two periods,” said Flames head coach Ryan Huska. “You have to recognize the work ethic was there for the most part.” Malkin took a drop pass from Smith and snuck in a wrist shot at 14:14 of the third period for his milestone goal. He has six points in his first three games. “There’s lots of motivation,” Malkin said. “I don’t want to step on the ice and do nothing and just skate around.” Rust tied the game at 1 just 18 seconds into the third period. Smith gave Pittsburgh a 2-1 lead just 23 seconds later, the second-fastest two goals to start a period in franchise history. Smith, an offseason acquisition who won the Stanley Cup with Vegas last season, scored his second goal in as many games. He took a pass from Malkin and beat Markstrom with a one-timer from between the circles. “We were hoping (Smith and Malkin) were going to develop some chemistry and that’s one of the reasons why we put them together from the first day,” Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said. Guentzel put Pittsburgh in front 3-1 at 5:50 of the third period. Guetnzel, who has points in three straight games, is two goals away from 200 in his career. Coronato opened the scoring at 18:22 of the second period with a power-play goal. The No. 13 overall pick in 2021 took a slot pass from Elias Lindholm and fired a one-timer behind Nedeljkovic from the bottom of the circle. “It’s hard to think about it, the way we came out and played in the third,” Coronato said. “It was a great play by (Lindholm) and it was good to get it.” HANIFIN’S MILESTONE Flames D Noah Hanifin became the 10th-youngest defenseman in NHL history to skate in 600 games on Saturday. Hanifin, who has 49 goals and 240 points, is the first player from the 2015 draft class to reach that mark. The former No. 5 overall picked played his first 239 games in Carolina before a trade to Calgary ahead of the 2018-19 season.
