The Stanley Cup Playoffs continued on Friday with three games.
EASTERN CONFERENCE:
At New York City:
Carl Hagelin scored the game-winning (and series-ending) goal at 10:52 of overtime as the New York Rangers defeated the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins 2-1 to win their opening-round playoff series four games to one. Henrik Lundqvist stopped 37 of 38 Pittsburgh shots.
At Montreal:
With Eril Karlsson and Bobby Ryan each scoring a power-play goal and Craig Anderson stopping 45 of 46 shots, the Ottawa Senators dominated the visiting Montreal Canadiens 5-1 in game five of their conference quarterfinal series, which the Canadiens still lead three games to two. The Senators will try to square the series at three games apiece by winning game six Sunday night back home in Ottawa.
WESTERN CONFERENCE:
Marco Scandella, Nino Niederreiter, Mikko Koivu (power play), and Charlie Coyle each scored a goal while Devan Dubnyk forgot his game-four embarrassment and stopped 36 of 37 shots as the Minnesota Wild downed the visiting St. Louis Blues 4-1 to take a three-games-to-two conference-quarterfinal series lead. The Wild can close out the Blues with a game-six home win at St. Paul on Sunday.
