-The Rangers spoiled John Tortorella's return to New York, as they beat the Canucks 5-2.
-Ducks D Alex Grant scored on his 1st NHL shot in his 1st NHL game tonight.
-With 2 assists tonight Nick Bonino has 19 points in 29 games, which is a new-career high. It previously was 18 points in 50 games in 2011/12
-The Sharks went a perfect 5-0 on their recent 5-game home-stand.
-The Hawks became the 1st team this season to 20 wins.
-The Avs had their 1st shootout of the season, leaving only the New York Rangers who haven't been in a shootout yet.
-Things keep getting worse for the Islanders, as they scored late in the 3rd and looked to end their 5-game losing streak. However the Caps tied it shorthanded with 1 minute left, and Ovie scored his NHL-leading 21st goal in OT to send the Isles to their 6th straight loss.
-Justin Williams scored his 200th NHL goal tonight.
