Recap:
The Buffalo Sabres came up empty handed in their Saturday night visit to the Capital Center. The first period was all Capitals despite the Sabres killing off 3 straight powerplays. Kevin Miller scored first (2) for the Capitals, then Peter Bondra scored on a clear cut breakaway (2). Mike Ridley closed the scoring with just under 2 minutes remaining in the 1st period. Don Beaupre locked the door and threw away the key, however, Washington's defense was stifling. Beaupre only faced one GR opportunity. On the other end, Dominik Hasek saved all 3 of only 3 GR opportunities.

Recap:
On a night honoring the jersey retirement of two Maple Leaf greats, the Chicago Blackhawks spoiled the party. Greg Gilbert broke the ice late in the 1st period to put Chicago up 1-0. Steve Larmer (4) scored 5:00 into the second, and only 49 seconds later, Stephane Matteau scored a powerplay goal with Wendel Clark in the penalty box to take a 3-0 Chicago lead. The Leafs would chip away and get back in the game. Jamie Macoun scored with 6 1/2 minutes left in the second, and Doug Gilmour scored a powerplay goal (5) 3:44 in the 3rd period to make it a 3-2 game. That was the league-leading 4th powerplay goal for Gilmour. However, Chicago would answer back with a Jeremy Roenick snapshot (3) with 8 minutes left. Toronto never recovered as the only other goal was scored by Steve Larmer (5) with 12 seconds left in regulation. Ed Belfour was strong for Chicago, saving 25 of 27 shots, including 4 of 4 GR shots. Chicago moves into a 1st place tie in what looks to be a very competitive Norris Division.
Banners from Maple Leaf Garden depicting the Leafs' only retired numbers. Bill Barilko famously scored the 1951 Stanley Cup winning goal in overtime against Montreal and soon-after lost in the crash of a small airplane in Northern Ontario. Irive (Ace) Bailey played Defense for the Leafs in the 1930s and nearly lost his life when upended by Bruins' Defenseman Eddie Shore at the Boston Garden on December 13, 1933. A players benefit for Bailey on Valentine's Day 1934 morphed into the annual All-Star Game. Both jerseys were retired on Saturday Night in a ceremony before the Blackhawks Leafs contest.

Recap:
The Pittsburgh Penguins visited the Hartford Civic Center Saturday night to take on the Whalers. The Penguins started off as expected, Ron Francis scoring (4) to take an early lead 1:38 into the game. Troy Loney scored (2) just under 10 minutes later to take a 2-0 lead. Hartford goalie Sean Burke held strong and allowed the Whalers to chip away at the Penguin lead. John Cullen scored with just over 5 minutes remaining in the 2nd period, and Robert Petrovicky beat Tom Barasso on the powerplay 3 minutes into the 3rd to tie the game at 2. Tom Barasso held strong in the 3rd though despite the Penguins getting outshot 14-5 in the frame. With Randy Cunneyworth in the penalty box, Mario Lemieux netted his 5th goal of the season with 6:41 remaining to take the lead 3-2, which is how the game would end.

Recap:
The fans at Le Colise were treated to a wild game between the St. Louis Blues and Quebec Nordiques Saturday night. Martin Rucinsky delighted the crown 3:53 into the 1st period, followed by Steve Duchesne (4) just under 3 minutes later. The Nordiques would take a 2-0 lead into the locker room at the 1st intermission. Rich Sutter brought the Blues within 1 a minute into the second frame with a shorthanded goal. Later in the period the scoring would erupt. Andrei Kovalenko scored (3) with 5:55 remaining in the period to put Quebec up 3-1, and the Blues answered back with a Craig Janney goal (3) only 1:50 later. Valeri Kamenski scored his (3)rd with just over a minute left in the second, on the powerplay to make the score 4-2. Early in the 3rd period, Brett Hull single-handedly tied the game at 4 by scoring 2 goals in the 1st 6 minutes of the period (6). Joe Sakic answered with his 1st of the season with 8:22 remaining, which closed the scoring at 5-4 Quebec. Guy Hebert was rough for St. Louis starting in place of Curtis Joseph. He made 23 saves on 28 shots and was only 4 of 9 on GR chances. Quebec was successful on the powerplay converting on 2 of 5 opportunities.

Recap:
Pierre Turgeon and Glenn Healy proved to be too much for the New York Rangers to overcome before a sold out Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. This year's rivalry started out with some firepower as Pierre Turgeon and Brian Leetch (2) exchanged goals in the first 1:30 if the game. Pierre Turgeon would score again (5) 10:56 into the period on the powerplay and that is all Glenn Healy and the Islanders would need. It looked to be a rough night for goaltenders early on, however, Mike Richter and Healy would settle down. Benoit Hogue would add an insurance goal (4) with 1:21 left in the 2nd period. The win vaults the Islanders into a 1st place tie in the Patrick Division.

Recap:
The New Jersey Devils hosted the Philadelphia Flyers, looking to close the gap in the Patrick Division after a very slow start to the season. For the Flyers, Stephane Beauregard played in his first game of the season, giving Dominic Roussel a rest for the evening. It would be a rough night for Beauregard though, as New Jersey scored the first 5 goals of the game: 3 In the 1st period from Kevin Todd, Dave Barr, Bobby Holik (5), and 2 in the second from Bruce Driver (3) and Viacheslav Fetisov. Beauregard was only able to muster 19 saves on 25 shots, and was only 1 for 6 on GR chances. It was a big night for the New Jersey powerplay, scoring 3 goals on 5 chances, and Scott Stevens had 4 assists in the victory.

Recap:
The Minnesota North Stars visited the Montreal Forum for a Saturday Night Hockey Night in Canada appearance. They would get out to a fast start, as Ulf Dahlen (5) scored only 22 seconds into the game to put the North Stars up 1-0. Vincent Damphousse scored about 6 minutes later (3) to knot the game at 1. Early in the 2nd, Todd Ewen took a 5 minute major to put the Habs 2 men down. Just as Montreal killed off the 2 man advantage, Ulf Dahlen scored his second of the night (6) to take a 2-1 lead. It would get worse quickly. Derian Hatcher and Brian Propp also scored on the same Major penalty to Ewen to take a 4-1 North Star lead in the blink of an eye. Vincent Damphousse scored with 4:09 remaining in the 3rd (4) to make the game look respectable, but it was too little too late. Darcy Wakaluk was solid in net, giving Jon Casey the night off, making 30 saves on 32 shots.

Recap:
The Edmonton Oilers skated into Joe Louis Arena Saturday night with hopes of extending their 2 game winning streak. Steve Yzerman and Dino Ciccarelli had other ideas. Bill Ranford started his 7th game in a row for the Oilers, which proved to be tough game for the goaltender. He was able to keep the game at bay for the 1st period, only trailing by 1 by virtue of an early Steve Yzerman goal. The 2nd period, Ranford showed some fatigue, allowing the floodgates to open on 4 goals on 6 shots which propelled Detroit to a 7-2 victory. Steve Yzerman had a hat trick (9) and 3 assists for 6 points, 1 away from tying a Red Wings record. Dino Ciccarelli had a great night of his own, adding 5 assists. Bob Probert added 2 goals (3) and an assist, which was fitting in a penalty filled game, where there were 27 total penalties called. Detroit continues its impressive start.

Rob Blake opened the scoring (4) for the Kings on a powerplay goal with Gord Murphy in the box 5:10 into the 1st period. A few minutes later, Marty McSorley went after Darren Banks and they had a heavyweight bout. McSorley was assessed an instigator and a 10 minute misconduct to the crowd's dismay. Gord Murphy made up for his costly penalty by scoring to tie the game at 1 with 1:48 remaining in the 1st. Boston then took control of the game. Dave Poulin scored 2:11 into the 2nd period (4) while Andy Moog held the Kings' limited chances at bay. Adam Oates scored (3) 7:03 into the 3rd which appeared to seal the game for the Bruins at 3-1. The Kings would come back. Luc Robitaille scored his (6)th of the season a minute and a half after Oates' goal to make the score 3-2. Later, with the goalie pulled, Warren Rychel scored (2) on a great pass by Marty McSorley to tie the game at 3 with only 44 seconds remaining. That is how the game would end, as overtime did not produce a victor.
