The National Hockey League played three regular season games last night.
The battle for a spot in the Western Conference playoffs has picked up with renewed vigor. This happened after an important victory for Calgary against Winnipeg.
Both teams claim to continue the fight for the Stanley Cup. The “Lights” defeated the opponent away 3:1 and fell behind in the standings. Now both teams have 89 points, but Winnipeg still has a game in hand.
We also note another victory for Edmonton. The Oilers also defeated Anaheim 3-1 on the road. This victory was their sixth in a row and 11 of their last 12 matches. Thanks to such a series, Edmonton has risen to second place in the West.
