Recap Roundups
October 17, 2017
Pittsburgh 5, NY Rangers 4
It took a magic touch for the Pittsburgh Penguins to pull victory from the jaws of defeat on Tuesday night, but that touch didn't come from anyone on their roster.
Philadelphia 5, Florida 1
Last season, it took Claude Giroux and Sean Couturier 14 games to net their fourth goals of the season.
Toronto 2, Washington 0
It was not really surprising that the surging Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Washington Capitals on Tuesday night.
New Jersey 5, Tampa Bay 4
Down a goal late in the third period against one of the better teams in the National Hockey League, the New Jersey Devils refused to flinch.
Vancouver 3, Ottawa 0
In his first game for the Vancouver Canucks, goaltender Anders Nilsson turned a sensational opening period into a perfect ending.
Nashville 4, Colorado 1
The power play has been pretty powerful for the Nashville Predators.
Columbus 5, Winnipeg 2
If the Tuesday game between the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Winnipeg Jets were a UFC match, the home side would have tapped out and everybody could have gone home before the second period was over.
Dallas 3, Arizona 1
Prior to Tuesday night, the Dallas Stars had not won consecutive games this season.
Carolina 5, Edmonton 3
The battle of the backups went to Carolina.
Vegas 5, Buffalo 4
Coach Gerard Gallant showed slight amazement when informed his Vegas Golden Knights are only the second NHL franchise in history to win five of its first six games, joining the 1917-18 Montreal Canadiens.
San Jose 5, Montreal 2
The San Jose Sharks found the perfect way to cap a rough five-game homestand before hitting the road for five games.
