Ducks get Silfverberg, Noesen, pick for Ryan

The Anaheim Ducks have acquired Jakob Silfverberg, Stefan Noesen, and a first round pick from the Ottawa Senators in exchange for Bobby Ryan.

Silfverberg had 10 goals and 19 points in 48 games as a rookie in 2013. He's not going to step in and immediately replace Bobby Ryan's offensive abilities, but he's got plenty of upside and should play in a top-six role with the Ducks next season.

Jimmy Howard shuts out Bruins, Wings up 1-0

Jimmy Howard found his mojo on Friday night, kicking aside all 25 Bruins shots to lift Detroit to a 1-0 victory in Game 1.

Howard was fantastic, making clutch saves down the stretch to keep the game tied, while Pavel Datsyuk's late goal gave the Red Wings an unlikely victory. The Red Wings goaltender will need to be better than he was during the regular season in order for Detroit to make a run. Howard was 21-19-11 this season with a .910 save percentage and 2.66 goals against average during the year. Friday night was a good start.

Pavel Datsyuk scores heroic goal, Wings win

Pavel Datsyuk's marvellous third period goal was all the Red Wings needed on Friday night, as they held on to beat the heavily favoured Bruins in Game 1 by a score of 1-0.

Datsyuk took a pass from Johan Franzen in the neutral zone, stickhandled his way through multiple Bruins just over the blueline and fired home a deadly wrister past Tukka Rask with just 3:01 to go in the game. The goal gave the Red Wings home ice advantage and a 1-0 series lead against Boston with Game 2 coming on Sunday.

Carey Price backstops Habs to 2-0 series lead

Carey Price's shutout bid was spoiled with under two minutes remaining in Game 2, but the star goaltender still got the all important victory in Friday night's battle with the Lightning.

Price made 26 saves on 27 shots and was much better than he was during Wednesday night's Game 1, where he allowed four goals and made 21 saves in the wild overtime victory. A strong team performance suffocated the Bolts' offense, and put the series momentum squarely in the hands of the Canadiens. Price improves his mediocre career playoff record to 11 wins and 17 losses.

Rene Bourque's pair pushes Habs past Bolts

Rene Bourque drove the Canadiens past the Lightning in Game 2 on Friday night, scoring two goals in the Habs’ 4-1 victory in Tampa Bay.

Bourque’s first goal is making the rounds on the highlight reels, as the veteran split the Bolts’ defense and poked the puck past a sprawling Anders Lindback. That goal stood as the game-winner, while Bourque’s second marker increased the Habs’ lead to 3-0 and essentially putting the game out of reach in the third period for the hometown Lightning.

Frederik Andersen expected to start in Game 2

Frederik Andersen is projected to play between the pipes again on Friday.

Andersen stopped 32 of 35 shots in Anaheim's 4-3 victory over Dallas in their playoff opener on Wednesday. Obviously, the fact that they're sticking with Andersen doesn't bode well for Jonas Hiller, who might not be offered a contract extension before his current deal runs out this summer.

T.J. Oshie (upper body) is on the ice Friday

T.J. Oshie is skating Friday morning with a few players who did not play Thursday night against Chicago.

He has been skating on his own this week as he awaits clearance to participate in contact practices. At least Oshie seems to be getting closer to a return. Consider him day-to-day for now.

Alex Steen ends marathon OT to lift Blues

Alexander Steen's goal 26 seconds into the third overtime period gave the Blues a 4-3 win over Chicago in Game 1 of their first round playoff series Thursday night.

Steen knocked a nifty little pass from Steve Ott into the back of the net soon after the third extra frame began and sent the Blues fans home happy. Adam Cracknell, Vladimir Tarasenko and Jaden Schwartz also scored for St. Louis in the thrilling victory. If the rest of the series is as exciting as this game, it could lead to widespread heart attacks for fans of both teams.

Ondrej Palat will be a game-time call Friday

Ondrej Palat (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Friday's contest against Montreal.

He left Game 1 because an undisclosed injury, which is believed to be to his upper-body region. The outstanding rookie logged 14:05 of ice time before exiting early in the third period.

Steve Mason's status uncertain for Game 2

Steve Mason (upper body) is feeling better, according to Flyers coach Craig Berube.

He is projected to join the team in New York on Friday, which is a good sign. However, he won't be in the lineup Thursday for Game 1 against the Rangers and his status for Game 2 is still unclear.

Antti Niemi will start Game 1 vs. Los Angeles

Antti Niemi will start in Game 1 against Los Angeles.

The Sharks made some waves when they didn't immediately name their starter for Thursday's playoff opener, but it shouldn't come as a surprise that Niemi will get the nod.
