Colorado is approaching the playoffs

The Colorado Avalanche is closing in on the playoff ticket. Last season’s Stanley Cup winners defeated the San Jose Sharks 4-3 in overtime. Denis Malgin passes Jack Johnson 1-0 in the first third.

Nathan MacKinnon decided the game after more than three minutes of overtime. Tonight’s second goal is the Canadian’s 100th goal of the current season. That puts Malgin’s team seven games before the end of qualifying, just as many points clear of their closest challenger in Central Division Winnipeg, who have five games left.

New Jersey, already qualified for the knockout stage, beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 5-1 at home. Nico Hischier and Timo Meier also contributed to the clear success. Devils captain Hischier provided the assist on two of Canadian Dawson Mercer’s three goals, the NHL’s first hat-trick. At the start of the second third, Meier made the provisional decision aiming to make it 3-0 in the power play.

Josis Predators squints at Wild Card

The Nashville Predators maintain a playoff berth in the NHL. The team, again without Roman Josi, beat the Vegas Golden Knights 3:2 after extra time.

A home win against the top-scoring team in the West leaves the Predators three points in contention for one of two wild cards to enter the championship tie-breaker. Nashville has five games remaining in the regular season.

Canadian Cody Glass made the decision against the Golden Knights after three and a half minutes of extra time. Double-goal scorer Tommy Novak gave the Predators a 2-0 lead in the first period, without captain Roman Josi for the tenth straight year. (SDA)
