Montreal bounced back from Game 1 with a 5-1 road win in Buffalo to even the series at 1-1. Alex Newhook scored twice early, with Mike Matheson adding a third and Jakub Dobeš turning in 29 saves.

Montreal dominated five-on-five play and won the faceoff battle 57-43, while Buffalo’s power play again stalled.

Canadiens Seek Round-2 Momentum in Game 1 Against Sabres

Montreal heads to Buffalo for Game 1 of Round 2, aiming to translate their surprising first-round success into a series-opening edge. They’ll rely on road-tested form and a rekindled power play, facing a Sabres side anchored by veteran goalie Alex Lyon who has posted stellar playoff numbers, while Canadiens rookie Jakub Dobes carries the crease for his team. The teams split a 2-2 regular-season series, and Montreal won’t be skating in the morning as they prepare for puck drop.

Avalanche ride big plays and special teams to take 2-0 series lead

Colorado Avalanche beat the Minnesota Wild 5-2 to take a 2-0 series edge, riding a sharper defense and two timely power-play goals. Minnesota, hampered by injuries including Brodin and the absence of Eriksson Ek, got a shaky playoff return from Gustavsson but couldn’t slow the Avs’ top line or their improving power play, with MacKinnon finishing with multi-point night and Landeskog extending his point streak as Nichushkin added an empty-netter. Wild’s penalty kill remains a major issue, Boldy was held off the scoresheet, and the series shifts to Minnesota for Games 3 and 4 after three days off for adjustments.

From league-leading to playoff-free: Winnipeg Jets' costly missteps

After finishing first last season, the Winnipeg Jets missed the playoffs due to an aging, slower roster, failed attempts to add a second-line center, costly veteran signings that hindered breakout passes and transition, a power play plummeting from No. 1 to the 20s, and goaltending struggles tied to Connor Hellebuyck’s knee surgery, with limited secondary scoring and coaching decisions that didn’t adequately fix top-line overreliance.

Dubois leads Caps past Knights as power play stalls

Washington Capitals edged the Vegas Golden Knights 3-2 to extend their win streak and stay in the Eastern playoff hunt, highlighted by Pierre-Luc Dubois' two goals and an assist after his return from injury. The Caps’ power play continued to struggle (0-for-5, near the bottom of the league) and their Ovechkin-Strome line posted poor five-on-five metrics, prompting calls for a winger upgrade, while Rasmus Sandin had two assists as Washington improved to 7-2-1 in their last 10 games since Jan. 23.
