Players of the Night:
Jeff Glass, Chicago Blackhawks: Glass continues to do things that he probably shouldn’t be doing. He’s a 32-year-old rookie netminder who only played his first NHL game a few days ago. Now, the Calgary native is 2-0-1 and performing admirably in the absence of Corey Crawford.
Andreas Athanasiou, Detroit Red Wings: On paper, Athanasiou beat the Ottawa Senators, scoring the regulation marker and then the overtime winner, which was pretty epic.
Highlights of the Night:
What can you say? There were only two games on Wednesday and history was matched in one of them:
MISC:
- The NHL unveiled the captains for the upcoming All-Star Game on Wednesday, did your favorite player make the cut?
- The NHL also unveiled the All-Star Game jerseys on Wednesday. Yay or Nay?
- Score many goals, get paid handsomely.
- Patrick Maroon slapped with two games for this hit.
Scores:
Red Wings 2, Senators 1 (OT)
Blackhawks 5, Rangers 2
