Top 3: Rasmus Dahlin Gets Injured Just Before Facing Montreal

Yesterday, on Canadian Thanksgiving, things were pretty quiet in the NHL.

Only three games were on the schedule.

Here are the results and highlights:

Earlier in the day, the Panthers visited the Sabres. It was therefore a good opportunity to get a look at the Habs' next opponents.

Rasmus Dahlin gave his team the lead late in the first period with a slap shot.

However, the captain suffered an injury and will miss the game against the Habs, as he won't be traveling with the team.

This is good news for Martin St-Louis's squad, as they won't have to face one of the NHL's best defensemen.

The Sabres still managed to beat the Panthers on Monday

For the Panthers, Brady Tkachuk finally recorded his first point with his new team.

It was a beautiful goal, by the way.

For the Senators, not having Brady Tkachuk doesn't change a thing.

The team won again last night (4-1 against the Devils) and sits atop the Atlantic Division.

Linus Ullmark is playing some really good hockey.

He remains undefeated this season and boasts exceptional statistics.

Linus Ullmark last season:

.891 save percentage and 2.73 GAA

Linus Ullmark through 5 starts this season:

.948 save percentage and 1.27 GAA

It's early, but Ullmark looks like he's BACK in Vezina form https://t.co/7RCKnDO1Op

Tim Stutzle is also on fire.

In six games, he's racked up 10 points. Yesterday, he scored two.

The Devils were booed at home.

One might have wondered what kind of start to the season Quinn Hughes would have. After all, we know he wants to play with his brothers on the Devils, that he's open to the idea of re-signing with Minnesota, but he still doesn't have a contract.

In any case, whatever offer Bill Guerin makes, it will have to be more generous… Hughes is off to an excellent start to the season. In six games, he already has nine points. In the Wild's 4-2 victory over the Knights yesterday, he recorded two assists.

From the source Quinn Hughes (0-2—2) helped the @mnwild build a 3-0 lead in the opening period and extended his season-opening point streak to six games in the process.

Minnesota scored three of its four goals in the first period.

Nico Sturm of the Wild was hit in the head by a puck.

He did not finish the game.

From the source Nico Sturm will not return to tonight's game, according to @mnwildPR

– Not a great afternoon for the goalies…

We're less than halfway through this matinee game and we've already seen a goaltending change for both teams https://t.co/bdPYbxYMHF

– They don't like each other.

– Anthony Mantha stayed in the game, though.
