Rangers 1, Blackhawks 0 Nick Holden scored with 4:05 remaining in overtime to lift New York over Chicago. Antti Raanta stopped all 26 shots he faced to earn his first shutout of the season and the fifth of his career. The abrupt ending spoiled a terrific performance by Blackhawks goaltender Scott Darling, who turned aside the first 36 shots he faced before allowing Holden's game-winner. Wild 3, Oilers 2 (shootout) Jason Pominville, Chris Stewart and Eric Staal scored in a six-round shootout as Minnesota extended its winning streak to three, beating Edmonton.

Oshie, Jakub Vrana, John Carlson and Marcus Johansson scored the Capitals. Kyle Okposo scored the lone goal for the Sabres and Robin Lehner made 21 saves. Blues 4, Devils 1 St. Louis handed New Jersey its first regulation defeat on home ice this season. The Devils, which had been 8-0-2 in its first 10 home games, trailed the entire way and mustered little offense against Blues goaltender Jake Allen, who finished with 20 saves. Ducks 3, Sharks 2 Hampus Lindholm scored his first goal of the season with 5:38 left in the game as Anaheim beat San Jose at Honda Center to move back atop the Pacific Division standings.
