Nik Ehlers with a 2.5 point night. Kid has quietly played his way from my 9th or 10th best forward at his call-up, firmly into my top 5. Behind just Crosby, Panarin, and another pleasant surprise, Charlie Coyle.

Another shocking loss for the Seals amid a 1-19-1 stretch.
Interestingly, the Seals were 16-11-0 before the bottom fell out.
Rockets open up their biggest lead of the season, 7 points clear of 2nd place Crop Dusters.
Rockets now with just 1 loss in their last 9 games, and just 3 in their last 17, and 21-7 in their last 28.
Lost Cause remain in a freefall, a 3-9 swing drops them OUT of the playoff picture for the first time in months.
Broadway stays hot (6-3-1 in their last 10) and move into the final playoff position a point up on both the LC and the ROFB.
Beavers keep rolling and now sit just one point back of the playoffs - on an 8-3-1 run trying to rebound from that dismal start - their non-negative streak continues.
The Auston Matthews era starts on a high note for the Whale, as they pick up a win on the strength of his 2-assist debut.
Whalers continue to own the longest active win streak at 4 games.
Seals own the longest active losing streak at 5 games, which feels like nothing compared to the 11-gamer earlier this season.
KCR had a long surge up towards the top of their division, but have slumped lately, 1-4 in their last 5.
asdfjkl; in a similar boat after a 9-game unbeaten streak (8-0-1) they've gone 3-4.
asdfjkl; and the Rockets both have 10-point leads in their division at the moment.
We're through the first 3 cycles of the season - just 2 more to go. Each team has 32 games remaining (including 2 double header nights).
2nd place and 7th place are separated by a mere 5 points. Lots of movement to come.
