  • Alex Newhook attacked in Game 2 against the Buffalo Sabers and scored two goals to lead Montreal to an impressive 5–1 victory. The game ended up being one of Montreal's best seasons of the year, with the Habs defeating Buffalo 2–0 and sweeping them 7–0 in the first round.

  • While the Habs have leveled their series against the Sabres, the Laval Rocket are preparing for the final game of their second-round series against the Toronto Marlies. Laval had a great year, but it will quickly be forgotten if they fall to the Marlies. [Laval Rocket Season On The Line Against Marlies]
  • Zach Benson's frustrated chihuahua act is part of his playing style, and he's given full marks for what he has to do to survive in a league full of Rottweilers. But it was fun to watch him try to chip Jacob Dobbs, a player who lives for this kind of grease. It's worth noting that Dobbs was right after the failed Twitter attempt.
  • He won't get credit for this, but it appears that Mike Matheson was trying to protect Benson from any serious injury when the Sabers forward reached the bottom of the dog pile.
  • You could tell Newhook was *a little* excited to read the starting lineup before Game 2.
  • Rockets head coach Pascal Vincent had nothing but great things to say about his captain Lucas Condotta.

  • After competing for the services of Sunny Mehta, it looks like the New Jersey Devils and Toronto Maple Leafs may be facing off against each other for another front office executive. After learning he was also a candidate for the job in Toronto, the Devils were not going to let Mehta slip through their fingers. [New Jersey Devils]
  • The Toronto Maple Leafs beat the odds and won the NHL draft lottery. That stroke of luck has completely changed the narrative around the moribund franchise. Just a day earlier, all one could talk about was the team's appointment of new general manager John Chayka, which was being widely criticized. Now, it's all about that No. 1 pick in next month's draft. [Toronto Maple Leafs]
  • Colorado Avalanche superstar center Nathan MacKinnon has already locked in a spot on the Maurice Richard Trophy as the NHL's leading goalscorer in 2025-26. Now he will get a chance to win the Hart Trophy as league MVP for the second time in his career. [Colorado Avalanche]
