Like many Wednesdays, there weren't a ton of games on the schedule last night. Eight teams were in action. Here are the results and highlights:

1. Sabres score eight goals against SensIn Buffalo, the Senators were playing their first game in their new uniform. Very nice!

Like many third uniforms, it was unlucky. Ottawa lost 8-4… to the Buffalo Sabres. The loss of Brady Tkachuk hurts…

The Sabres won their first game of the season and have the same record as Ottawa (1-3-0).

In the win, Buffalo scored four special-team goals, their first since 2018.

2. Big of the Blackhawks wins in St. LouisThe Sabres weren't the only ones to score a touchdown and a two-point conversion yesterday. The Blackhawks, too, did it against the St. Louis Blues. Chicago won 8-3. I'm very impressed with Chicago this early in the season. The club has a 2-2-1 record. In the win, Frank Nazar continued his good start to the season by scoring a rather special goal. In fact, it was the winning goal.

Joel Hofer was also in the news, but for all the wrong reasons. He gave the first goal of the game to Ilya Mikheyev on a silver platter.

Connor Bedard, meanwhile, finished the game with three assists.Check this one out:

3. Utah reveals its mascotLast night was the first home game in Mammoth history, and for the occasion the second-year club revealed its new mascot.

The Flames, despite a fine performance from their second goalkeeper Devin Cooley, didn't play the spoilsport. A 3-1 victory for the hosts, though it was the visitors who scored first. Rasmus Andersson

Tied 1-1, J.J. Peterka scored a beautiful goal.The Sabres must regret trading him, that one.

In four games this season, the forward has two goals and an assist

4. Third win in a row for the Red WingsSince the Habs beat the Wings, they haven't lost again. They've won their last three games. Most recently (yesterday), they beat the two-time defending champions 4-1. Without Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk, some forwards have to step up. That's what Brad Marchand did, scoring the team's only goal.

Patrick Kane, for his part, isn't known as the best maverick in history.

But yesterday, he beat Sergei Bobrovsky with a perfect shot.

It was the winning goal, by the way.Dylan Larkin, Mason Appleton, Michael Rasmussen and Alex DeBrincat all picked up two points in the win. Detroit is in first place in the Atlantic. spacer title='Prolongation'] –
