Nhl Morning Skate – Feb NHL MORNING SKATE – FEB. 23, 2020 THREE HARD LAPS * Alex Ovechkin became both the second-youngest and second-fastest player to join the NHL's 700-goal club. The only player to reach the 700-goal mark at a younger age or in fewer games than Ovechkin (age 34, 1,144 GP) is all-time goals leader Wayne Gretzky (age 29, 886 GP). * Forty-two-year-old emergency backup goaltender David Ayres came in relief for the Hurricanes and became the oldest goaltender in League history to win his NHL debut. * The Canucks and Coyotes erupted for nine and seven goals, respectively, en route to victories over the Bruins and Lightning – the top two teams in the NHL this season. OVECHKIN BECOMES EIGHTH MEMBER OF NHL’S 700-GOAL CLUB Alex Ovechkin became both the second-youngest and second-fastest player to join the NHL's 700-goal club with his tally Saturday in New Jersey, joining seven others in the prestigious group. The only player to reach the 700-goal mark at a younger age or in fewer games than Ovechkin (age 34, 1,144 GP) is all-time goals leader Wayne Gretzky (age 29, 886 GP), whom Ovechkin now trails by only 194 goals. A collection of Ovechkin notes is below, but a detailed look at his achievement is available in the latest “Alex Ovechkin: The Road to 700 Goals” document compiled by the NHL Stats & Information team. * Ovechkin’s achievement at age 34 is rare not only from an NHL perspective, but also across the professional sports landscape. Among major career scoring milestone lists with fewer than 10 names for NBA players (30,000 points), MLB hitters (600 home runs) and NFL quarterbacks (400 passing touchdowns), only two players reached the benchmark before age 35: LeBron James and Kobe Bryant. * Ovechkin scored his milestone goal just shy of the six-year anniversary of Jaromir Jagr becoming the seventh member of the 700-goal club – and against the team Jagr was skating for at the time. In a matinee at Nassau Coliseum on March 1, 2014, Jagr scored his 700th goal to give the Devils a 2-0 lead – mere moments after Ovechkin became the fastest Russian to reach the 800-point milestone (658 GP) with his second goal during a matinee in Boston. Ovechkin notched his 800th point at 2:24 of the second period, which had a start time of 2:01 p.m. ET; the second period of the Devils-Islanders game started at 2:04 p.m. ET, with Jagr scoring 3:31 into the frame. 42-YEAR-OLD EMERGENCY BACKUP GOALTENDER CLOSES OUT HURRICANES WIN With James Reimer and Petr Mrazek leaving the game due to injury, 42-year-old emergency backup goaltender David Ayres turned aside eight shots to help preserve a Hurricanes (35-22- 4, 74 points) victory. * Ayres, who served as an emergency backup goaltender for the American Hockey League’s Charlotte Checkers on Feb. 1 against the Toronto Marlies, left with First Star honors and became the oldest goaltender in NHL history to win his NHL debut. The previous mark was held by Hugh Lehman on Nov. 17, 1926 with Chicago (41 years 21 days). * Additionally, Ayres became the second-oldest player in NHL history, regardless of position, to make his NHL debut, behind Lester Patrick (43 years, 80 days) on March 20, 1927 with the Rangers. CANUCKS, COYOTES ERUPT AGAINST LEAGUE LEADERS The Canucks (33-22-6, 72 points) and Coyotes (31-26-8, 70 points) erupted for nine and seven goals, respectively, en route to victories over the Bruins (39-12-12, 90 points) and Lightning (40- 17-5, 85 points) – the top two teams in the NHL this season. * Vancouver and Arizona are two of four Pacific Division teams separated by four points which also includes Vegas (33-22-8, 74 points) - who also won Saturday – and Edmonton (32-22-7, 71 points). The Coyotes however, have played the most games among the group (65 GP). * Quinn Hughes (8-41—49) factored on two of nine Vancouver goals and became just the second rookie defenseman in franchise history to collect at least 40 assists in a single season. Additionally, he joined Bryan Berard (40 in 1996-97 w/ NYI), Janne Niinimaa (40 in 1996-97 w/ PHI) and Nicklas Lidstrom (49 in 1991-92 w/ DET) as just the fourth rookie defenseman to achieve the feat in the last 30 years. * The Canucks, who scored nine goals in a regular-season game for the 16th time in franchise history and first since Jan. 6, 1996 (9-2 W vs. TBL), trail only the Lightning for the highest goals for per game played at home this season. * Conor Garland (2-2—4) factored on four of seven goals to establish a single-game career high. The Coyotes scored seven goals in a game for the second time in as many seasons after also doing so against the Lightning in their previous meeting on Oct. 27, 2018. 24-YEAR-OLD SHERSTERKIN RECORDS NHL FIRST WITH ANOTHER 40-SAVE WIN Igor Shesterkin turned aside 44 shots, including 21 in the first period, to backstop the Rangers (33-24-4, 70 points) to their eighth win in 10 contests. After also registering 40-save victories on Jan. 9 (46), Feb. 9 (42) and Feb. 11 (42), the 24-year-old became the NHL’s first goaltender since 1955-56 (when shots on goal officially began being tracked) to register four such wins through his first 10 career games. * After sitting a season-high 11 points out of a playoff spot on Feb. 10, including nine points out through 50 games on Feb. 1, the Rangers moved within four points of the Hurricanes for the second Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference standings. Should New York reach the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs, it would mark the first time in franchise history the club has qualified for the postseason after being at least nine points shy of a playoff position through their first 50 games of a season. * Shesterkin, who’s allowed two or fewer goals in six of his last eight contests, extended his win streak to seven games and became just the fourth goaltender in NHL history to earn nine wins through his first 10 career games. FLYERS MAKE GROUND ON CAPITALS, PENGUINS WITH ANOTHER HOME WIN Welcomed by Oskar Lindblom in the dressing room following their victory, the Flyers (35-20-7, 77 points) improved to 21-5-4 through 30 contests at Wells Fargo Center this season and moved within three points of the Penguins (37-16-6, 80 points) and Capitals (37-18-6, 80 points) for top spot in the Metropolitan Division. * Philadelphia’s nine total home losses are tied with Tampa Bay (20-7-2) for the fewest among all clubs in 2019-20. The Flyers look to conclude a regular season with the fewest home losses among all teams for the fifth time in franchise history (led outright or tied). The others: 1985-86 (6), 1984-85 (4), 1979-80 (5) and 1975-76 (2). DID YOU KNOW? The Flyers are one of two professional sports franchises based out of Philadelphia to stifle the visiting opposition in 2019-20. The NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers have recorded a League-best 26 home victories this season (tied), while pacing the Association with two such losses. QUICK CLICKS * Alex Ovechkin career timeline: Draft through 700 goals * Social media goes wild for Ovechkin's 700th NHL goal * Ovechkin can catch Gretzky after scoring No. 700 for Capitals, greats say * Facts and Figures: Ovechkin's road to 700 * Carey Price, Max Domi lift Canadiens to win against Senators PREVIEW OF TODAY’S ACTION OVECHKIN, CROSBY SET TO RENEW RIVALRY AS PLAYOFF PUSH HEATS UP Alex Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby are set to go head-to-head in the regular season for the 51st time when Metropolitan Division-leading Pittsburgh (37-17-6, 80 points) travels to Washington (37-18-6, 80 points). * The Penguins and Capitals are in a neck-and-neck battle for the top seed in the Metropolitan Division. Since the Metropolitan Division was formed in 2013-14 – either the Capitals (4x) or Penguins (once) have taken top seed in five of the six seasons. The year prior in 2012-13 – both the Penguins (Atlantic) and Capitals (Southeast) also won their respective divisions. * Crosby (24-47—71) has the edge in assists and points in those contests with the Penguins going 31-17-2 in those games. Ovechkin (30-21—51) leads the face-to-face matchups in goals – the Capitals are 19-24-7 in those contests. .

Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen, pressed with the weight of deadlines past, felt he could ill afford to make another sacrifice to substantially boost his roster. He largely stayed pat. Last year, Columbus was the tornadic center of deadline day. Kekalainen went “all in” on rentals and used picks and prospects to get center Matt Duchene, defenseman Adam McQuaid, left wing Ryan Dzingel and third-string goaltender Keith Kinkaid. Kekalainen took his shot. The Jackets swept the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round of the playoffs and pushed the Boston Bruins to six games. Then, six unrestricted free agents, including Artemi Panarin and Sergei Bobrovsky, exited Nationwide Arena. They just visit now. Kekalainen said he could afford to lose the prospects he gave up at the 2019 deadline. Why? Because he had Alexandre Texier, Emil Bemstrom and Liam Foudy, among others, in the pipeline.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips May 6, 2021 Sabres organist Curtis Cook plays empty arena, strikes chord with fans By Jason Wolf The Buffalo News May 6, 2021 Curtis Cook wore his blue Buffalo Sabres jersey as he sat in Section 120 before the team’s home finale Tuesday at KeyBank Center, where he placed his hands upon the keys of the Lowrey organ, its rich tones resonating throughout the empty arena. “As an organist, you kind of feed off and judge the situation by how the crowd is reacting, depending on what’s happening on the ice,” Cook said. “So not having that reaction was weird. That’s for sure. I was playing rallies and responding to them myself by using a drum sound instead of having people respond to me. “But I think, ultimately, I’m sitting there at the organ and doing everything I normally do during a game, which is going, ‘Yeah!’ or ‘Aww, c’mon,’ as a fan myself. So I just sort of tapped into my own energy to try to bring the music to people at home.” Cook, 27, has played the organ at every Sabres home game this season, nearly all of them without fans in attendance, yet found a way to strike a chord with his audience. The Williamsville North High School and Niagara County Community College graduate has delighted crowds for more than a decade, since he began playing at Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Clarence, a gig that began with the self-taught 15-year-old taking hymn requests from the congregation.
