Last night in the NHL, four series continued.

Two teams could take a 3-0 series lead: Toronto and Winnipeg.

Here are the results and highlights:

Overtime win: Leafs lead 3-0

The Leafs aren’t a playoff team.

At least, they weren’t under Sheldon Keefe. Not so under Craig Berube.

Yesterday, Toronto won 3-2 in overtime to lead the series 3-0. Ouch!

The Senators came from behind, however, thanks to Brady Tkachuk’s goal.

His second of the playoffs.

Auston Matthews had given Toronto the lead earlier.

What a play by Mitch Marner on the sequence!

Ottawa has yet to win a playoff game since May 2017.

The Leafs can end the series tomorrow.

The game will be played in Canada’s national capital.

Panthers come home 2-0 ahead

The Panthers could really hurt the Lightning with a win.

Florida won 2-0 and the club now leads the series 2-0. They return home for the next two games. In view of game three, two big players could forfeit: Brandon Hagel (suspension) and Aleksander Barkov (injury).

Nate Schmidt scored the visitors’ first goal.

His first of the series.

And the insurance goal was scored by Sam Bennett, in an empty net.

Paul Maurice’s club could take a 3-0 series lead tomorrow at home.

Florida currently leads the series 2-0.

Connor Hellebuyck is not the same

In St. Louis, the Blues had to win to avoid going over the cliff.

In convincing fashion, the team closed the gap in the series. Victory 7-2. They even managed to chase down the world’s best goalie, Connor Hellebuyck.

Hellebuyck would never have put in such a performance in the regular season: 19 saves on 25 shots.

His defense wasn’t perfect, but he didn’t help himself, either…

For the Blues, Pavel Buchnevich scored the first hat trick of the 2025 series.

Cam Fowler became the first defenseman in franchise history to score five points in a playoff game.

Still!

St. Louis could tie the series on Sunday, still at home.

The Jets lead 2-1.

Another 5-2 Wild win

In game two, the Wild won 5-2.

And in yesterday’s game three, Minnesota won by the same score.

Kirill Kaprizov opened the scoring.

The duo he forms with Matthew Boldy is simply sensational.

He already has 13 points in three games.

While Kaprizov and Boldy were in charge of the attack, Filip Gustavsson was in charge of preserving the lead.

The two teams meet again tomorrow in Minnesota.

The Wild lead the series 2-1.


Overtime

– Of course.

– A first point for the young defender.

– What a goal!

– Adin Hill hunted.

– Bon.

– Fowler leads the charge.
