Detroit @ Carolina 3-1 - After failing to score on a Carolina high-sticking double minor early in the first period, Detroit cashed in twice with the line of Datsyuk, Tatar and Darren Helm. The Red Wings scored at 16:36 when Datsyuk used Carolina defenseman Andrej Sekera as a screen in the right circle before scoring on a low snap shot inside the post. Detroit extended the lead to 2-0 at 18:36. After defenseman Kyle Quincey shot the puck around the end boards from the neutral zone, Tatar gathered the bouncing puck in the left circle and scored on a deflection off Sekera's skate for his 11th. Tatar made it 3-0 at 12:14 of the second period. After Detroit cycled the puck in the corner in the offensive zone, Datsyuk slipped a backhand pass to Tatar, who was alone in front to beat goaltender Cam Ward (19 saves). The Hurricanes cut the lead to 3-1 on Jay McClement's first goal at 17:11 of the second period. After winning the draw, McClement moved to the slot to deflect defenseman Tim Gleason's shot from the right point. Staal was hit by a shot from Justin Faulk with 1:43 remaining. He had ice around his foot and was walking with crutches after the game.

Vancouver @ Ottawa 3-4 OT - Erik Karlsson's goal at 1:21 of overtime Sunday, his 23rd shot attempt of the game, gave the Senators a 4-3 win. Mika Zibanejad had two goals and two assists to help Ottawa overcome a 3-0 deficit. Zibanejad dropped the puck to Karlsson in the slot on the winner and the Senators captain sent a slap shot by Canucks goaltender Eddie Lack. The Canucks opened up a 3-0 lead on goals by Radim Vrbata and Kevin Bieksa 65 seconds apart in the first and a second-period goal by Brad Richardson. A three-point second period by Zibanejad, including two goals for his first multi-goal game in the NHL, brought the Senators back from a 3-0 deficit after the Canucks got into penalty trouble. With Ottawa enjoying a two-man advantage (its second of the game), David Legwand made it 3-1 at 10:53 of the second when he put in a rebound of a Zibanejad shot. Zibanejad scored his sixth and seventh goals of the season in a span of 4:46 to tie the game. Zibanejad made it 3-2 when he circled the net and banked a shot in off Vancouver defenseman Yannick Weber at 14:12. He tied the game at 18:58 when he swept in and put a backhand behind Lack.
