Max Pacioretty to have hearing today for hit

Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty has a phone hearing scheduled for 4pm ET Sunday with National Hockey League Director of Player Safety Brendan Shanahan for his hit on New York Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh Saturday.

Pacioretty delivered the hit just over seven minutes into the second period of the Canadiens' 3-0 win Saturday night, taking McDonagh hard into the end boards in the Rangers' zone. He was assessed a boarding minor on the play. McDonagh left the game after the hit and didn't return. Pacioretty has previously been suspended by the NHL, having received a three-game ban on Dec. 6, 2011, for a hit to the head of Pittsburgh defenseman Kris Letang.

Jaroslav Halak likely to make debut Saturday

Look for Jaroslav Halak to make his Washington Capitals debut on Saturday.

Halak should be given a fair opportunity to seize the starting job away from Braden Holtby. While we wouldn't have thought much of Halak had he stayed in Buffalo, the Capitals' situation is far different. He should hold his own in Washington and have a decent March.

Tampa names Stamkos captain in his return

Steve Stamkos returned from a 45-game absence Thursday night and he was named the 10th captain in Tampa Bay's franchise history.

He recorded five shots and concluded the match with 21:03 of ice time. Stamkos wasn't happy that the Lightning lost 3-1 to Buffalo, but he must've been pleased to be back in the lineup and was honored to get the team's captaincy. Coach Jon Cooper though Stamkos' return went well. "He was outstanding," Cooper said. "If that's the worst game he plays for us, things are going to look pretty good. He was the most dangerous player on the ice." He played between Alex Killorn and Teddy Purcell.

"This is a new opportunity," he said. "My goal is to be a No. 1 goalie in the NHL, and I feel like I can get the opportunity here. I'm going to give all my best and work hard every day."
