Last night, on this beautiful Sunday, 14 teams were in action.

The action did not disappoint.

Here are the results and highlights:

1. The Habs will face the team of the hour tomorrow

It won’t be easy for Montreal. Tomorrow, the club will face the St. Louis Blues, the team of the hour in the NHL.

Last night, the Blues won against the Predators with a score of 4-1. It was their sixth consecutive victory.

And since the return of the Four Nations Face-Off, no team has done better.

St. Louis has a record of 12-2-2 and is in the last playoff spot, just like the Habs.

In the game against the Preds, Jordan Kyrou reached the 30-goal plateau.

This is the third consecutive season he has reached this plateau.

The Quebecers with the first name Zachary took care of the rough stuff.

Bolduc of the Blues and L’Heureux of the Preds left their mark on the game in their own way.

2. A 50th point for Matvei Michkov

In the afternoon, the Flyers visited the Chicago Blackhawks.

This was a very important game for Philadelphia, who wanted to cling to their last hopes of reaching the playoffs. But under pressure, the club collapsed.

Defeat 7-4 against one of the worst clubs in the NHL. In the Hawks’ victory, Connor Bedard found the back of the net for his 20th goal of the season.

Tyler Bertuzzi, for his part, pulled out his Sunday moves.

On the losing side, they were undisciplined.

In this sequence, they got two penalties in a few seconds.

At least, Matvei Michkov collected two assists and thus reached the 50-point plateau this season.

He is the third rookie to do so this year, after Lane Hutson and Macklin Celebrini.

3. The Panthers win in extremis against the Penguins

When you think about the standings, you often look at the teams that have been drafted and the teams in the picture.

But don’t forget about the division title races. Last night, the Panthers were losing 3-1 in the second period against the Penguins, but they won 4-3 in a shootout.

With this win, despite Bryan Rust’s two goals, Florida distanced themselves by two points from the Maple Leafs at the top of the Atlantic.

The winner of this division may face the Ottawa Senators in the first round.

Obviously, many things can change by then.

In the game, Sam Reinhart scored a beautiful coast-to-coast goal.

4. Surprise: The Sabres surprise the Jets

Also during the day, the Sabres were visiting Winnipeg.

An unequal duel in appearance? Think again, it was the Sabres who ran away with the win (5-3).

When the game was tied at the end of the second period, Rasmus Dahlin gave his team the lead.

And in the third period, in front of parents and friends, Tyson Kozak scored the third goal for his team.

While shorthanded, Alex Tuch scored the winning goal.

Meanwhile, James Reimer ensured his team’s lead was preserved.

5. The Kings crush the Bruins

It’s time to face the facts, the Bruins won’t make the playoffs.

They are currently at 69 points, six points away from the playoffs. It’s a steep hill to climb with so few games left in the regular season. Last night, they were crushed 7-2 by the Los Angeles Kings.

Boston has a record of 0-5-1 in their last six games.

In this crazy game, there was almost a goalie fight.

At 4-2 in the third period, the visitors were still in the game.

But that’s when the Kings stopped messing around. Three consecutive goals for the home team, who earned a point at home for the 14th game in a row.

Here’s an overview of the standings in the West:
