SEATTLE (AP) — Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen and Cale Makar weren’t interested in being side characters to a historic night for the Seattle Kraken. The trio took centre stage and reclaimed home-ice advantage for the defending Stanley Cup champions. MacKinnon and Rantanen scored in a 1:28 span early in the third period, and the Colorado

Morgan Rielly has experienced a lot of tough moments as the longest-serving member of the Maple Leafs. The veteran defenceman — and his Toronto teammates — showed plenty of fight and did just enough on a night where they were largely second best. Rielly scored at 19:15 of overtime and Ilya Samsonov made 36 saves

The Minnesota Wild have delivered a forceful and punishing performance to take the lead in their first-round NHL playoff series with the Dallas Stars. The Wild are wincing a little bit themselves, though. Joel Eriksson Ek, their best center, could be sidelined again after he missed the first two games and had his Game 3

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Trevor Moore scored a power-play goal at 3:24 of overtime to give the Los Angeles Kings a 3-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 3 of their Western Conference first-round playoff series. After Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was called for high sticking at 1:44, Moore, who grew up in nearby Thousand Oaks,

Trevor Moore scored the overtime winner for the Los Angeles Kings in a 3-2 win over the visiting Edmonton Oilers on Friday to lead their first-round playoff series two games to one. Edmonton’s Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was serving a slashing minor when Gabriel Vilardi fed Moore at the side of the net for the latter to

SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Boston captain Patrice Bergeron did not accompany the Bruins on their trip to Florida for Games 3 and 4 of an Eastern Conference first-round series with the Panthers. He missed Game 1 due to illness and Game 2 to an unspecified upper-body injury. Game 3 is Friday evening. “We believe Game

The Winnipeg Jets did a great job of shutting down the Golden Knights’ big guns for the first four periods of their first-round series. The Vegas stars finally started to deliver in the second period of Game 2 on Thursday and never looked back in a 5-2 win that evened the first-round NHL playoff series at

Thousands of kilometres from the Las Vegas desert landscape, members from Sioux Valley Dakota Nation in southwestern Manitoba donned Vegas Golden Knights jerseys as they watched the team battle the Winnipeg Jets during the series-opener Tuesday evening. The game was projected onto two large screens set up in the nation’s community hall. Hockey fans across

John Tavares doesn’t tend to show much emotion. The Maple Leafs’ stoic captain usually leads by example with a head-down, dogged determination he’s demonstrated since his days as a teenage phenom. On the heels of a disastrous playoff opener, Tavares knew it was on him to drag his team into the fight. The rest of

TORONTO – Victor Hedman missed Game 2 of the Tampa Bay Lightning’s first-round series against the Toronto Maple Leafs with an undisclosed injury. The six-foot-seven defenceman, who didn’t see action after the first period of Tuesday’s Game 1, took part in the morning skate, but didn’t join his teammates for warmups ahead of puck drop

Brandon Montour scored twice and the visiting Florida Panthers had four third-period goals to beat the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Bruins 6-3 on Wednesday night and send Boston to its first loss in 10 games. The Panthers — the NHL’s top regular-season team last season — tied the best-of-seven series and head home for Games 3 and

EDMONTON – If you told an Oilers fan before the first-round series against the Los Angeles Kings that Edmonton would take 2-0 leads in both Games 1 and 2 without trailing in regulation, they’d have been ecstatic. They’d be thinking the Oilers were well on their way toward a sweep. Yet, somehow, some way, even

Klim Kostin scored the third-period game winner for the Edmonton Oilers in a 4-2 victory over the visiting Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday to even their first-round playoff series at a win apiece. Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists for Edmonton, which dropped the series opener 4-3 in overtime. Derek Ryan and Evander

LAS VEGAS – As his teammates took off their gear Wednesday after practice at T-Mobile Arena, Jets forward Morgan Barron was in an adjacent room looking at the side of his face in the mirror. A nasty gash that required over 75 stitches to close wasn’t pretty, but it could have been a lot worse.

Michael Bunting pleaded his case. The NHL’s Department of Player Safety then handed down its verdict. The Toronto Maple Leafs winger has been suspended for the next three games of his team’s first-round playoff matchup with Tampa Bay after delivering an illegal check to the head on Lightning defenceman Erik Cernak in the series opener.

DENVER (AP) — There were of course so many “firsts” for the Seattle Kraken in their postseason debut. First playoff goal for the franchise (and answer to a future trivia question) — Eeli Tolvanen. First playoff penalty — Will Borgen. Above all, first playoff win and brief celebration. Alex Wennberg had a goal and an

John Tavares didn’t have an answer. Sheldon Keefe didn’t sense any nerves. Once the puck dropped, however, one team was confident in its battle-tested, championship pedigree. The other froze at the first opportunity to once again — finally — flip its long playoff script. The Tampa Bay Lightning built a 3-0 lead in the first
