The Canadians, Ducks, and Mammoth all won on Friday, and all go up 2-1 in their series.  Flyers and Hurricanes both looking to sweep and advance on Saturday. Avs will have a chance to do the same on Sunday. Sabers beat the Bruins on Thursday, down 2-1 in the series and can tie it up on Sunday, or could fall behind 3-1.

The Avalanche have swept the LA Kings and await the winner of Wild/Stars.  Lightning beat the Canadians to tie the series 2-2. Ducks and Sabers both win and now lead 3-1.

That wraps up a Sunday in the NHL.  Two games on Monday, Flyers/Penguins and Golden Knights/Mammoth.

Penguins stay alive by beating the Flyers, now trail the series 3-2.  Golden Knights win in OT against the Mammoth, and that series is now tied at two.

The Bruins and Oilers keep their season alive with wins, both trail 3-2 in their respective series between the Sabers and Ducks.

Minnesota is one win away now from advancing past the first round in I don't even know how long.  They beat the Stars in game five and have a chance to close it out in game six at home on Thursday.

The Wild bounce back from their game one loss where they gave up nine goals to game two where they only gave up five goals.  Problem is they only scored two goals and have been outscored by five goals in the first two games.  They trail the series two to zero against Colorado as they now play the next two games in Minnesota. 

 

In the NHL Draft lottery, the Toronto Maple Leafs will get the first pick. Two through five is the Sharks, Canucks, Blackhawks, and Rangers.
