Two regular season games were played in the National Hockey League last night.
Toronto stopped Pittsburgh’s rise in the NHL standings. The Penguins, who had previously won six of their last seven games, became contenders to enter the playoff zone. Actually, this would have happened if they beat the Wedge Leaves, but the team from Canada won in overtime 3:2.
In another match that day, one of the leaders of the Western Conference – Vancouver – defeated the reigning champions from Vegas at home 4:3.
