Nhl Morning Skate: Stanley Cup Playoffs Edition – August 20, 2020 NHL MORNING SKATE: STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS EDITION – AUGUST 20, 2020 THREE HARD LAPS * Brayden Point scored another overtime winner to power the Lightning into the Second Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. * The Avalanche scored seven goals for a second straight game to establish a franchise record for most in a series-clinching win. * The Bruins also advanced while the Canucks and Canadiens earned Game 5 wins to take a 3- 2 series lead and stave off elimination, respectively. LIGHTNING ADVANCE WITH ANOTHER DRAMATIC OT WIN OVER COLUMBUS In a rollercoaster game that saw the Lightning take a 2-0 lead less than seven minutes after the opening faceoff, the Blue Jackets rebounded with four consecutive goals, but Tampa Bay staged a rally of its own – scoring with 98 seconds left in regulation to force overtime. In extra time, history repeated itself as Brayden Point – the 5OT hero from Game 1 – scored to record his third point of the game and lift the Lightning into the Second Round. * Point, whose goal in Game 1 ended the fourth-longest game in NHL history, became the fifth Lightning player to record multiple career overtime goals in the playoffs joining Martin St. Louis (3), Vincent Lecavalier (2), Tyler Johnson (2) and Nikita Kucherov (2). Point is one of 18 players in League history with multiple overtime goals in a playoff series. * Point also became the second player in franchise history to score a series-clinching goal in overtime – St. Louis did it twice, first in Game 6 of the 2003 Conference Quarterfinals against the Capitals, and again in Game 5 of the 2004 Conference Quarterfinals against the Islanders. * Two other Lightning players left their mark on the franchise record books. Kucherov (31-39— 70 in 73 GP) registered three assists in Game 5 to overtake St. Louis (33-35—68 in 63 GP) as the franchise leader in playoff points. Andrei Vasilevskiy (37 saves) earned his 21st career playoff win with Tampa Bay, tying Ben Bishop and Nikolai Khabibulin for the most in franchise history. * The Lightning advanced to the Second Round for the fourth time in the past six postseasons, currently tied with the Capitals for the most such appearances since 2015. Washington can make its fifth appearance by rallying to win their series, while St. Louis can also make its fourth trip to the Second Round since 2015 by defeating Vancouver. DID YOU KNOW? The Lightning overcame a multi-goal, third period deficit to win a playoff game for the second time in franchise history (also Game 4 of 2015 R1 vs. DET). It marked the fifth such comeback victory by any team in the 2020 postseason, tied for the most in an entire playoff year. COLORADO SCORES SEVEN GOALS AGAIN, ADVANCES TO 2020 SECOND ROUND . The Avalanche scored seven goals for a second straight game to outscore the Coyotes by a combined 14-2 margin across their final two contests and advance to the Second Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Colorado, which earned a five-game triumph over first-seeded Calgary in the 2019 First Round, won at least one series in consecutive playoff years for the first time since a run of two straight postseasons from 2004 to 2006. * The Avalanche scored seven-plus goals in consecutive games within a postseason for the first time in franchise history and became the first team to accomplish the feat since the Flyers in the 2012 Conference Quarterfinals versus the Penguins (8-5 W in Game 2 & 8-4 W in Game 3). Colorado became the fourth team in NHL history to do so in the final two games of a Stanley Cup Playoffs series. MacKINNON, KADRI LEAD AVALANCHE IN SERIES-CLINCHING WIN Nathan MacKinnon (2-2—4) and Nazem Kadri (2-0—2) accounted for four of Colorado’s seven goals in Game 5 to lead the Avalanche in their series-clinching win. * MacKinnon, who has found the score sheet in all eight games contested by the Avalanche this postseason, leads all players with 13 points since Aug. 1 (4-9—13). He became the second Avalanche/Nordiques player with four points in a potential series-clinching game, joining Claude Lemieux in Game 6 of the 1997 Conference Quarterfinals (1-3—4 at CHI). * MacKinnon recorded 10 of his 13 points in the First Round (3-7—10 in 5 GP) to match his career high for most in a postseason series, a mark set as an 18-year-old rookie in the 2014 First Round against the Wild (2-8—10 in 7 GP). He became the fifth Avalanche/Nordiques player with a double-digit point total in multiple playoff series, joining Joe Sakic (5x), Peter Stastny (4x), Peter Forsberg (3x) and Michel Goulet (2x). * Kadri, who scored two goals for a second straight contest (also 2-1—3 in Game 4), shares the NHL-lead with six overall this postseason (6-5—11 in 8 GP). His League-leading five power-play goals since Aug. 1 are already tied for the third-most by an Avalanche/Nordiques player in a single postseason, trailing only Goulet and Sakic. BRUINS TAME HURRICANES, ALSO ADVANCE TO SECOND ROUND David Krejci (1-1—2) and Patrice Bergeron (1-1—2) scored second-period goals 4:36 apart to help the Bruins edge the Hurricanes and advance to the Second Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. * Bergeron, who collected 2-1—3 for the Bruins in their series-clinching win against the Hurricanes in 2019 Eastern Conference Final, netted the winning goal and boosted his career totals in potential series-clinching games to 9-13—22 (35 GP). Patrick Marleau (5) is the only active player with more series-clinching goals than Bergeron (3). * The Bruins, who continue their pursuit of a second straight appearance in the Stanley Cup Final, advanced to the Second Round for the third straight postseason. Boston last made three consecutive appearances past the opening round from 2009 to 2011 – a streak that ended with a Stanley Cup win. CANUCKS, CANADIENS EARN GAME 5 WINS Vancouver and Montreal each earned Game 5 wins to take a 3-2 series lead and stave off elimination, respectively: * Tyler Motte (2-0—2), J.T. Miller (1-1—2) and Jake Virtanen (1-1—2) accounted for three unanswered Canucks goals as Vancouver rallied from a 3-1 deficit to move within one win of advancing to the Second Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Canucks hold a 3-2 lead in a best-of-seven Stanley Cup Playoffs series for the ninth time in franchise history – they went 6-2 in the previous eight series, including three instances where the clinching win was earned in Game 6. * Vancouver overcame a multi-goal deficit to win a contest for the second time this postseason, following Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Qualifiers (5-4 OT W at MIN). It marked the first time in which the Canucks recorded multiple multi-goal comeback wins in a single postseason. * Joel Farabee pulled Philadelphia even after Montreal erased a 2-1 deficit to go up 3-2, but Nick Suzuki (1-1—2) scored the winner 22 seconds later as the Canadiens forced Game 6 in their First Round series. Suzuki (21 years, 9 days) became the fourth-youngest Montreal player to score a winning goal in a game where the Canadiens faced elimination. * Carey Price (26 saves) improved to 7-5 in 12 career games where the Canadiens faced elimination. He passed Georges Vezina (6-1) and Ken Dryden (6-2) for the most such wins in franchise history.

LOUIS 5, Washington 2 Tampa Bay 6, LOS ANGELES 2 KUCHEROV NETS FOUR POINTS TO MAINTAIN ELUSIVE SCORING PACE Nikita Kucherov (1-3—4) posted at least four points for the fourth time this season to extend his overall point streak to 12 games (8-19—27), posting his seventh consecutive multi-point showing (6-15—21). He now leads the League with 20-49—69 at the midpoint of Tampa Bay’s season, marking the 53rd instance in NHL history of a player accumulating at least 69 points through 41 team games. This marks the eighth occurrence since 1993-94. * Kucherov is the second player this season to record multiple points in seven consecutive team games, joining Toronto’s Auston Matthews (10-6—16 in 7 GP from Oct. 3-15). The only other player in Tampa Bay history to achieve the feat is Vincent Lecavalier, who had multiple points in eight straight contests from Nov. 3-19, 2007 (7-14—21) - also the NHL’s last such run longer than seven games. * Kucherov has collected at least four points three times in his past five outings. Only three others have achieved that feat since 1996-97: Mario Lemieux in 1996-97 and 2001-02, Jaromir Jagr in 1998-99 and Nisse Ekman in 2005-06. * The 25-year-old has scored a goal in eight of his past nine outings, including an active five- game goal streak, to hit 20 goals for the fifth consecutive season.

  • Peak Performance and Contract Inefficiency in the National Hockey League
    PEAK PERFORMANCE AND CONTRACT INEFFICIENCY IN THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Scott Winkler April 2013 PEAK PERFORMANCE AND CONTRACT INEFFICIENCY IN THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE Scott Winkler April 2013 Economics Abstract The purpose of this study is to determine what age National Hockey League (NHL) players have their best seasons and how this relates to their contract earnings. The hypothesis is that NHL players have their peak performance at age 27, which indicates that long-term contracts that exceed this age create inefficiency. The study will examine player productivity by taking 30 NHL players and evaluating their performance in the years leading up to age 27 as well as years that follow. Performance measures include average point production and the highest average ice-time per game. The study will also use two OLS (Ordinary Least Squares) regressions where the dependent variables are average time on ice per game and capital hit, both good indicators of how valuable a player is to his team, as well as several statistical independent variables such as points, games played and most importantly age. By gaining knowledge of peak performance, NHL organizations could better manage their teams by limiting long-term contracts to players and as a result lessen the inefficiency that exists in the market.

Winnipeg became the third team to reach the 2021 Second Round. * More than one-third of contests so far this postseason have required extra time, with 12 overtime games through 35 games played (34%). Only seven rounds in NHL history have featured more such contests. * Goaltenders Spencer Knight and Cam Talbot stood tall on Monday to help the Panthers and Wild extend their respective series to a Game 6. JETS WIN LONGEST GAME IN FRANCHISE HISTORY, COMPLETE FIRST-EVER SWEEP The Jets and Oilers required overtime for a third straight game and second straight day, this time extending to three extra periods before Winnipeg’s Kyle Connor scored after 106:52 of action. The Jets won the longest game in franchise history to complete the first sweep ever by the club and reach the Second Round for the second time (also 2018). * Winnipeg will next face either Toronto or Montreal in what will be the first-ever Stanley Cup Playoffs series between the two cities (including both iterations of the Winnipeg Jets). * Winnipeg became the fifth club to sweep the team with the Art Ross Trophy winner (since the award was introduced in 1947-48), following Columbus (2019 R1 vs. TBL), Edmonton (1990 DF vs. LAK), NY Islanders (1983 SCF vs. EDM) and Montreal (1960 SF vs. CHI).

    PREGAME NOTES 2019 TIM HORTONS NHL HERITAGE CLASSIC WINNIPEG JETS vs. CALGARY FLAMES MOSAIC STADIUM, REGINA, SASK. – OCT. 26, 2019 JETS, FLAMES FACE OFF OUTDOORS The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames face off tonight in the 2019 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic (10 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CST, CBC, SN1, CITY, TVAS2, NBCSN) – the League’s 28th regular-season outdoor game and fifth in the Heritage Classic series. The Jets and Flames each have participated in one prior outdoor game, both under the Heritage Classic umbrella. Winnipeg played host to the 2016 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at Investors Group Field, falling 3-0 to the Edmonton Oilers. Nine Jets players who appeared in that game remain with the team: Kyle Connor, Nikolaj Ehlers, Connor Hellebuyck, Patrik Laine, Adam Lowry, Josh Morrissey, Mathieu Perreault, Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler. Current Calgary goaltender Cam Talbot started for Edmonton in that contest, stopping all 31 shots he faced for the third shutout in outdoor NHL game history. Current Jets forward Mark Letestu scored the winning goal (while shorthanded), as a member of the Oilers. And current Flames forward Milan Lucic recorded two penalty minutes for Edmonton. Calgary served as hosts for the 2011 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at McMahon Stadium, defeating the Montreal Canadiens 4-0. Two players who appeared in that game remain with the Flames: Mikael Backlund and Mark Giordano. Overall, the Jets feature 11 players who have participated in a prior outdoor NHL game (minimum: 1 GP in 2019-20), while the Flames have four. Talbot leads that group with four such appearances, though he served as a backup goaltender for three of them (2014 SS w/ NYR [2 GP], 2019 SS w/ PHI).

  • Press Clips December 5, 2013 Rangers-Sabres Preview Associated Press December 4, 2013
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips December 5, 2013 Rangers-Sabres Preview Associated Press December 4, 2013 If there was the slightest bit of doubt that Henrik Lundqvist was the clear-cut No. 1 goaltender for the New York Rangers, it has been eliminated this week. A day after agreeing to a seven-year contract extension, Lundqvist is likely to return to the ice after a rare two-game stretch on the bench as New York desperately tries to get some momentum going Thursday night against the Buffalo Sabres. "It was never an option for me to leave this club," Lundqvist said after the new deal was announced. "I really want to win the Cup here in New York." This trip to Buffalo precedes a nine-game homestand which will take the Rangers (14-14-0) through Christmas, a stretch Lundqvist would surely welcome. He has a 1.69 goals-against average at Madison Square Garden compared to 3.28 on the road. He hasn't been in net at MSG since Nov. 19 because New York's only two home games since then - also its two most recent games - were started by Cam Talbot even though Lundqvist was healthy. Talbot had been outplaying Lundqvist, going 6-1-0 with a 1.49 GAA through November while the five-time Vezina Trophy finalist was 8-11-0 with a career-worst 2.51 GAA. However, Talbot came back down to Earth on Monday, giving up four goals on 29 shots in a 5-2 loss to Winnipeg. Two days later, the team announced it had agreed to terms on the new deal with Lundqvist worth a reported $59.5 million.
