Preview Roundups
October 10, 2017
St. Louis at NY Rangers 7:00 PM ET
The New York Rangers shook off two rough performances to post their first victory of the season and hope to make it two straight when they host the unbeaten St. Louis Blues on Tuesday. The Rangers suffered a season-opening home loss to Colorado - the league's worst team last campaign, surrendered eight goals in a setback at Toronto and needed two goals by Montreal to be overturned on Sunday before skating to a 2-0 win.
Columbus at Carolina 7:00 PM ET
The Columbus Blue Jackets were quickly brought back to earth following an impressive season-opening victory. The Carolina Hurricanes hope to avoid a similar fate in their second game of the season when they host the Blue Jackets on Tuesday night in a matchup of Metropolitan Division rivals.
Chicago at Montreal 7:30 PM ET
The Montreal Canadiens hope to get their offense in gear Tuesday as they face off against the Chicago Blackhawks in their home opener. Montreal scored a total of three goals during its season-opening three-game road trip, which concluded Sunday with a 2-0 loss to the New York Rangers.
Philadelphia at Nashville 8:00 PM ET
The Philadelphia Flyers acquitted themselves well during the traditionally treacherous trek through California and look to wrap up a four-game, season-opening road trip on the right note Tuesday in Music City against the Nashville Predators. Finishing strong has been nothing new this season for the Flyers, who have outshot the opposition 49-20 in the third period.
Detroit at Dallas 8:30 PM ET
The Detroit Red Wings were among the league's worst teams last season but they were perfect in one area -- the shootout. Fresh off a 2-1 win at Ottawa in the bonus format, the Red Wings look to continue their surprising start when they kick off a three-game road trip at the struggling Dallas Stars on Tuesday night.
Ottawa at Vancouver 10:00 PM ET
While captain Erik Karlsson continues to recover from offseason surgery on his ankle, the Ottawa Senators hit the road to open a three-game swing through western Canada that begins at the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday night. The Senators are in search of their first victory, having opened the season with a pair of shootout losses.
Arizona at Vegas 10:00 PM ET
The Vegas Golden Knights return home for an emotionally charged game on Tuesday as the expansion club faces the Arizona Coyotes for the second time in four nights. The Golden Knights' home opener is nine days removed from an unspeakable tragedy that saw 58 people lose their lives and over 500 injured following a shooting at an outdoor concert over a block away from T-Mobile Arena.
