Four games were played on Friday as the opening round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs continued.
Eastern Conference:
At Pittsburgh:
Eric Brewer, Vinny Lecavalier (PP), Nate Thompson, and Martin St. Louis (PP), as well as Mattias Ohlund (EN) each tallied once as the Tampa Bay Lightning squared their opening-round series with the Pittsburgh Penguins by posting a 5-1 road beatdown.
At Washington:
Second-period goals from Jason Chimera and Jason Arnott (PP) as well as a shutout performance from goalie Michal Neuvirth (stopping all 22 shots) carried the Washington Capitals to a 2-0 home win over the New York Rangers, enabling the Caps to take a two-games-to-none lead in their conference quarterfinal series.
Western Conference:
At Vancouver, British Columbia:
Daniel Sedin scored twice (once on a power play) as the Vancouver Canucks held off the visiting Chicago Blackhawks 4-3 to lead their conference quarterfinal series two games to none.
At Anaheim, California:
A goal and two assists from Ryan Getzlaf, to go with 31 saves from goalie Ray Emery (in his first playoff start since 2007) carried the Anaheim Ducks to a series-evening 5-3 home win over the Nashville Predators. The series is now deadlocked at one game apiece.
