Yesterday, the NHL featured two games.

The Stars hosted the Jets for the first time, and in the evening, the Panthers were looking to even the series against the Leafs.

Here are the results:

Connor Hellebuyck allows another five goals in a playoff game

Prior to yesterday afternoon’s game, Connor Hellebuyck had a goals-against average above five in his last six playoff games away from home.

Yesterday, with his performance, he lowered that average… But he still allowed five goals. Stars win 5-2.

The American allowed five goals on 26 shots. On the winning goal, he was very generous.

Alexandrer Petrovic appeared to have directed the puck into the net with his skate, but after review, it was determined that it was Hellebuyck who deflected it into his net.

Yikes.

Mikko Rantanen continued his fine form. He collected three points, including a goal.

This is his fifth three-point game in his last six matches.

Mason Marchment was also in the news, but for all the wrong reasons. He swung a stick at an official.

Suspension or fine to come?

Either way, Dallas leads the series 2-1.

The next game will be played there, tomorrow, at 8pm.

Florida levels series against Leafs

In the last game between the Panthers and the Leafs, Florida won in overtime.

Toronto led the game 3-1. That’s where this series really turned around, because instead of being 3-0, Toronto was leading two games to one.

And yesterday, the Panthers, who weren’t facing elimination, won and thus leveled the series at two. 2-0 victory.

Carter Verhaeghe broke the ice.

And Sam Bennett scored the insurance goal later.

What patience here!

Otherwise, Sergei Bobrovsky was the hero of the match.

He pulled off a 23-save shutout.

Both teams thought they were in Les Boys.

The dirty shots were distributed all game long.

Oliver Ekman-Larsson slyly hit Evan Rodrigues.

Mitchell Marner then fell victim to Dmitry Kulikov.

And at the end of the game, Max Domi manhandled Aleksander Barkov.

It’s all set for game number five, to be played the day after tomorrow in Toronto (7pm).
