HIGH-POWERED OFFENSE LEADS CLUBS TO CONVINCING WINS

The Chicago Blackhawks, Tampa Bay Lightning, Anaheim Ducks and Nashville Predators all rode big offensive performances to open November with victories:
* The line of Patrick Kane (1-2-3), Artem Anisimov (1-1-2) and Artemi Panarin (1-1-2) combined for seven points to help the Blackhawks to their third consecutive win and a 6-1-1 run since starting the season with a pair of losses. Anisimov, who leads the League in points (7-6-13) and goals (tied), extended his NHL career-high point streak to eight games.
* The Lightning scored the opening six goals, led by two goals and four points from Nikita Kucherov, to end a three-game losing streak (0-3-0). Kucherov matched his NHL career high for points in a game set last week (1-3-4 on Oct. 25 at TOR) and is tied for second in League scoring (3-9-12 in 9 GP). Captain Steven Stamkos (1-1-2) scored his League-leading (tied) seventh goal of the season (7-5-12 in 10 GP).
* Rickard Rakell had a goal and three points while skating in his first game of the season to help the Ducks jump out to a 4-0 lead en route to a shutout victory against the rival Los Angeles Kings. Anaheim also received multi-point efforts from Ryan Kesler (1-1-2), Antoine Vermette (1-1-2) and Corey Perry (0-2-2). John Gibson made 30 saves to earn his first shutout of the season (seventh career).
* Craig Smith (2-0-2), Ryan Johansen (1-1-2), Filip Forsberg (0-2-2) and James Neal (0-2-2) all picked up multi-point nights to help the Predators end a three-game losing streak (0-2-1).

OVERTIME THRILLERS

The Toronto Maple Leafs, Columbus Blue Jackets and Ottawa Senators all earned overtime victories on Tuesday:
* On a night the hockey world was tuning in to see the first NHL meeting between Connor McDavid (22:46 TOI, 4 shots) and Auston Matthews (19:28 TOI, 6 shots) -- the last two No. 1 picks in the NHL Draft -- Maple Leafs forward Nazem Kadri stole the show with two goals including the winner 12 seconds into overtime. Per Elias, it was the second-fastest overtime goal by a Maple Leafs player since regular-season overtime was reinstituted in 1983-84 (Mats Sundin: 0:06 on Dec. 30, 1995 at STL).

* Blue Jackets forward Sam Gagner tied the game with 16 seconds remaining in the third period and defenseman Seth Jones scored his second career overtime winner. Per Elias, it marked the second time in franchise history Columbus scored a game-tying goal in the final 16 seconds of regulation and went on to win; Cam Atkinson tied the game at 19:52 of the third period in a 3-2 SO W vs. PHI on March 22.
* Kyle Turris scored his fifth career overtime goal, all with the Senators, to pass Daniel Alfredsson (4) into sole possession of second in tean history behind Mike Fisher (7).
