"Sergei Bobrovsky made 30 saves to backstop Florida to its first season-series sweep in a 3-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena on Monday. Red-hot Brad Marchand contributed a goal and an assist and Sam Reinhart's power-play marker in the final frame was his third game-winner of the campaign. Jesper Boqvist started the scoring with his first goal since opening night and newcomer Donovan Sebrango contributed two assists, his first points as an NHLer."
"The Capitals, who swept the Panthers last season, are coming off an impressive 4-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh on Tuesday. Logan Thompson stopped 30 shots and Brandon Duhaime, Dylan Strome, Jakob Chychrun and Alex Ovechkin provided the offense. Chychrun's goal was his 100th in the NHL. Despite the win, Washington enters on a bit of a cold spell. They are just 2-5-1 over their last eight games."
