Eight regular season games in the National Hockey League took place last night.
The fight for a playoff spot in the NHL Eastern Conference continues with renewed vigor. Detroit and the Islanders won important victories here last night.
The Red Wings beat Tampa on the road. Thus, the club from Detroit not only broke its four-match losing streak, but also overtook Washington, which is now in eighth place, in points.
Meanwhile, the Islanders beat Philadelphia on the road, still not guaranteed a spot in the playoffs. Because of this, the New York club is close to the playoff zone.
