Rangers center Dominic Moore knocked the puck away from Bobby Ryan at Ottawa's blue line. Hagelin carried the puck into the zone and got it to Dan Girardi at the right point. Girardi passed to Ryan McDonagh, who quickly tipped it to Derek Stepan. He sent a whirling backhand shot to the net from above the left hash marks that Hagelin tipped over Ottawa goalie Craig Anderson's glove with 2:05 left. Hagelin was alone in front of Anderson because he got behind Senators captain Erik Karlsson. It was Hagelin's ninth goal, first in eight games, and second in the past 15 games. Karlsson and Milan Michalek gave Ottawa a 2-1 lead in the second period when they scored 63 seconds apart. Karlsson scored at 13:38 and Michalek scored a power-play goal at 14:41. New York tied the game 2-2 with 17:18 remaining in the third period on Kreider's 10th goal.
The play started in the defensive zone with a long pass from Martin St. Louis to Marc Staal at the far blue line. Kreider gained a step on Senators defenseman Jared Cowen and Staal led him with a pass. Kreider, in alone, used a forehand to score on Anderson's blocker side. Ottawa took a 2-1 lead on Michalek's goal with 5:19 remaining in the second period. The Senators held the lead into intermission by killing off a 75-second 5-on-3 for the Rangers late in the period.
Edmonton @ Washington 5-4 SO - Nugent-Hopkins tied the game with 1:07 remaining and Fasth pulled, curling into the right circle and sliding a wrist shot past goalie Braden Holtby. Ovechkin went to the net early in the first period, drawing a penalty when Benoit Pouliot pulled him down. Ovechkin recovered, picking the top-right corner with a rising long-range slap shot at 1:48. Later, with Washington on the power play, Mike Green flinched before passing to Ovechkin, freezing Fasth and freeing enough space for Ovechkin to take a slap shot with enough force to shatter the lens of the camera inside Edmonton's net. The goal at 13:58 gave Ovechkin his 92nd multigoal game in the NHL, one from tying Peter Bondra's Capitals record. The Oilers, held without a shot on goal until 12:34, scored at 14:51. After Edmonton gained possession along the boards, Roy spun off Matt Niskanen as the two jostled in front and backhanded Nail Yakupov's blocked shot past Holtby's outstretched left leg for his fourth goal of the season. Beagle's seventh goal of the season, scored on a tip-in of a John Carlson shot at 17:34, gave Washington its 3-1 lead. Holtby stopped Nugent-Hopkins on a 2-on-1 with Taylor Hall at 19:20, but did not save Nikitin's one-timer with :04 left. After Niskanen kneed Roy to set up an Oilers power play at 19:53, Edmonton quickly converted on a set play when Nugent-Hopkins won the faceoff. Niskanen committed another penalty at 3:02 of the third period. Washington killed it and scored shortly after when Backstrom deflected Carlson's point shot past Fasth at 6:38. Purcell made it 4-3 with 4:11 left after the Oilers freed the puck from a scrum behind the net. In the shootout, Purcell beat Holtby with a wrist shot in the bottom of the fourth round.
Nashville @ Montreal 1-2 OT - P.K. Subban scored a power-play goal with 52 seconds left in overtime to give Montreal a 2-1 win. Subban took a pass from Andrei Markov and drove a one-timer past Carter Hutton for his 11th goal, surpassing his total from 2013-14. Nashville center Craig Smith was called for each of the two penalties that preceded the Canadiens' goals, including a call for tripping Montreal center Lars Eller 2:34 into overtime. Galchenyuk made it 1-1 with his 12th goal. Subban held back on his shot from the point and directed a slap-pass to the slot for Galchenyuk, who tipped the puck between Hutton's pads to score for a second straight game following a nine-game goal drought.
Ribeiro scored at 12:10 of the second when he deflected Seth Jones' slap shot from the right point past Price to give Nashville a 1-0 lead. There was a lengthy delay to replace a broken pane of glass behind the Montreal net at 3:59 of the third. Ribeiro shot through the crease on a wraparound attempt with 1:08 left in the third. Canadiens forward Brandon Prust recovered the puck and took it down the right side on an odd-man rush but his shot was stopped by Hutton.
Minnesota @ Detroit 4-5 SO - Pavel Datsyuk and Gustav Nyquist scored in the shootout to give the Red Wings a 5-4 win against the Wild. Teemu Pulkkinen opened the scoring 9:09 into the game when he ripped a one-time slap shot from the high slot off a backhand pass from Stephen Weiss off the rush. Pulkkinen took his first career penalty a little more than four minutes later, and Minnesota immediately capitalized. Koivu beat Mrazek with a wrist shot from the right circle with 6:38 left in the first period, seven seconds into the penalty, to tie the game 1-1. It was Koivu's seventh goal. The Red Wings regained the lead on Ericsson's goal with 5:30 remaining in the opening period. His one-time slap shot from the left point found the short side past Dubnyk's blocker. It was Ericsson's second goal. Nyquist's power-play goal 3:41 into the second period made it 3-1. He tipped Nilkas Kronwall's shot from the point out of the air and past Dubnyk. It was Nyquist's 19th goal, 11th on the power play. It was also his third goal in three games. Ouellet scored his second goal of the season at 7:25. His one-time shot from the high slot deflected up and in off the top of Minnesota forward Justin Fontaine's skate. Parise pulled Minnesota to within 4-2 with a power-play goal 6:01 into the third period. He put a loose puck into the open side of the net from the bottom of the left circle. It came with Ericsson in the penalty box for high sticking. Vanek's ninth goal made it 4-3 with 9:59 left. Devan Dubnyk allowed four goals on 10 shots before being pulled in favor of Darcy Kuemper almost halfway through the game. Kuemper made 14 saves. Parise's second goal of the game, 19th of the season, tied it 4-4 with 6:39 left in regulation. He intercepted Ericsson's ill-advised pass from behind the Detroit net and jammed his third attempt past Mrazek.
Vancouver @ Tampa Bay 1-4 - Filppula gave the Lightning a 1-0 lead at 13:32 of the second period. He escaped checking attempts by Canucks center Henrik Sedin and got to the front of the net, where he tipped in a pass from Steven Stamkos past goaltender Ryan Miller for his ninth goal of the season. Killorn gave Tampa Bay a two-goal lead 11 seconds into the third period when he controlled a loose puck off the boards and wristed a shot past Miller on the stick side. Boyle scored his ninth goal of the season to give the Lightning a 3-0 lead at 4:16 when he one-timed Brett Connolly's pass between Miller's pads. The Canucks got on the board at 8:09 of the third period when Corrado scored his first goal of the season off assists by Alexandre Burrows and Chris Higgins. Vancouver received three power plays in a 4:08 span of the third period, but was unable to capitalize, and Killorn put the game away with an empty-net goal at 17:34. It was his 11th goal of the season.
Phoenix @ Chicago 1-6 - Andrew Shaw scored two goals, Patrick 'Kaner' Kane scored the 200th goal of his career, and the Blackhawks ended a two-game losing streak in Joel Quenneville's 500th game as Chicago coach. Chicago rookie forward Teuvo Teravainen scored a goal and had an assist on Shaw's first goal for his first career multipoint game, Jonathan Toews scored his first goal since Dec. 21 (11 games), and defenseman David Rundblad scored his second goal of the season to complete the scoring in the third. The Blackhawks took a 2-0 lead into the second on goals by Toews and Shaw. Toews scored his 14th goal to make it 1-0 at 6:53 to cap a power play after Lucas Lessio was called for tripping. Crisp passes in the offensive zone by Sharp and Kane got the puck to Toews in the slot, and Toews did the rest with a hard wrist shot to beat Smith.
Shaw made it 2-0 at 12:48 with his seventh goal. It was his first goal and second point since Dec. 29 against the Nashville Predators. Bickell won a puck battle behind the Coyotes net, and Shaw went straight to the front of the crease, received a pass from Teravainen on the right wing, wheeled and shot the puck past Smith. Chicago scored three more times in the second to make it 5-1 after 40 minutes, and Rundblad scored late in the third. Kane scored his milestone goal at 3:51, Teravainen scored his second goal of the season at 9:42 and Shaw scored his second of the game at 19:19. Kane scored off a rebound of a shot by Richards. Teravainen put in his own rebound after a shot from the slot. Shaw scored with a wrist shot from the slot. Sharp, who picked up a secondary assist on Kane's goal, chased down the puck after it came out of the net and slid down the side boards. Lessio scored his first NHL goal with 2:06 left in the second period to cut Chicago's lead to 4-1. It was his 12th career game.
