propelling the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 3-1 victory over the Ottawa
Senators in a rematch of last spring's Eastern Conference finalists.
Murray managed to get the palm of his blocker hand on the shot,
right at the goal line. The play went to video review to confirm it
was no goal. It was the decision Murray expected. "I was pretty
sure," Murray said. "As a goalie you have a pretty good idea of
where your net is and where goal line is and stuff like that, so I
was pretty sure it stayed out. If it's close you definitely know as
a goalie. That's your office there. You know every inch of it. I was
pretty confident."

Hoffman by getting the palm of his blocker hand on the shot, right
at the goal line. Hoffman shrugged off the heist.
"Things like that are going to happen," he said of the Murray stop.
"There's good goalies in this league that make saves like that. All
I'm trying to do there is hit the net with the puck in the air. I
did those things. He just made a good save. Some of the times you
just have to tip your hat."

NHL Note - Colorado Avalanche Landeskog, Gabriel

rang a shot off the post late in the third period. He got a second
chance on the power play, and this time the Colorado Avalanche
captain didn't miss. Landeskog scored three goals -- one on a
penalty shot -- for his first career hat trick, and Colorado beat
the Washington Capitals 6-2 on Thursday night.
-----------------------------------------------
NHL Note - Colorado Avalanche MacKinnon, Nathan
C Nathan MacKinnon had a goal and four assists in Thursday's win
over the Washington Capitals. "Tonight, everything just kind of went
