1. Leafs fans celebrate Jays victory at Scotiabank ArenaOf course, in Toronto, fans wanted a win for their team against the Canadiens. But the Torontonians on hand knew that there was another important game involving one of their teams: the Blue Jays. Toronto could eliminate the Yankees and move on to the Association Finals. That ‘s exactly what the Jays did, with a 5-2 victory. And at Scotiabank Arena, the fans celebrated.First, they celebrated when Nathan Lukes hit a single to give the Jays a three-run lead. And they also celebrated late in the game, when Jeff Hoffman got the save. Well done to the Leafs for presenting the game on the big screen.

At one point in the game, the Oilers even led 3-0. Leon Draisaitl tripled the lead with his 400th career goal.

And now you've seen my subtitle: I guess Roslovic regretted his contract, as the hosts lost 4-3 in a shootout.
Calgary never gave up.First, Matvei Gridin scored his first NHL goal.
WELCOME TO THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE, MATVEI GRIDIN

And on the tying goal, Evan Bouchard and Stuart Skinner looked lost. Not for the first time.

But the man who stole the show from Eichel and Marner was Quinton Byfield. The man who shook hands with Wayne Gretzky before the game finished with a goal and an assist.

Marner finished his first game with his new team with two assists, but was stopped by Anton Forsberg in the shootout to give the Kings the win.
