Three games last night and after four away wins the night before we had three home wins and all by a 3 goal margin. The Pittsburgh Penguins progress to round two, sorry Lyndhurst, but a four goal blitz in the second ruined New York's chances. The Ducks take a 3-2 lead and the Blackhawks force a game 7.

Three games last night and all one goal games but two were a bit more than that. The Islanders go through after a winner in the second OT period and will face Tampa. Washington won 1-0 in Philly to face Pittsburgh and Dallas were 4-0 up after 2 periods but only just won 5-4 after the Wild make a game of it.
