2mins Player of the day:
- Tobias Stephan (G - Stars) earns our player of the day for his win over the Minnesota Wild. Stephan played in only his 2nd ever NHL game. His last game, almost a year ago was on the road in Chicago, a game where he played solid but lost the game in overtime. A year is a long time to wait to prove you can play at this level, but Stephan did that today.
Stars of the day:
- Teemu Selanne (Ducks), got his game on with a hat trick against the Detroit Red Wings
- Tobias Stephan (Stars) made his NHL debut for 2008 with a 4-2 win over the Wild
- Ryan Getzlaf (Ducks) had 5 assists in the Ducks win over the Red Wings
- Matt Stajan (Maple Leafs) scored 2 goals in the Leafs shootout win over the Devils
- Pavel Datsyuk (Red Wings) scored a pair against the Ducks
…and there were none:
- Going into todays game the Wild had no suffered a regulation loss this season, the only team remaining to do so. Tobias Stephan and the Stars put and end to that with a solid 4-2 win over the travelling team.
Demoted:
- Jordan Staal has been demoted to the third line during Wednesday’s Penguins practice.
Trade Deadline moved:
- The NHL has announced that the Trade Deadline will be moved back to March 4. The change has been approved by both the NHL and the NHLPA.
oh, they’re hurt:
- Sergei Zubov (Stars) should be back in the Stars lineup this Saturday.
- Randy Jones (Flyers) could resume skating in 2 weeks and should be back on the team before Christmas.
- Jere Lehtinen (Stars) is rumored to begin skating again soon.
- Tim Connolly (Sabres) is unlikely to play this weekend with a back injury.
- Pascal Leclaire (Blue Jackets) is looking at a second opinion after his MRI revealed just a sprained ankle.
- Bryan McCabe (Panthers) began skating on his own Monday.
- Rick DiPietro (Islanders) will not be on the upcoming road trip.
He shoots… the scores:
- Toronto Maple Leafs 6 - 5 New Jersey Devils (shootout)
- Dallas Stars 4 - 2 Minnesota Wild
- Anaheim Ducks 5 - 4 Detroit Red Wings (overtime)
