There are five games on the NHL schedule for Sunday, two of which are nationally televised. Here are five things to watch today, along with the complete game schedule.
Trevor on a tear
Trevor Zegras is on the verge of establishing a record by extending his home point streak by a player from the start of their tenure with the Philadelphia Flyers to nine games when they host the Calgary Flames (2-9-2) at Wells Fargo Center (7 p.m. ET; NHLN, NBCSP+, SN, TVAS). Zegras is tied with Peter Forsberg, who scored in his first eight games in 2005-06. The 24-year-old was acquired by the Flyers in a trade with the Anaheim Ducks on June 23 and has 12 points (four goals, eight assists) during his run. He leads the Flyers (6-4-1) in assists (nine) and points (13) in 11 games this season.
Nifty 50
Macklin Celebrini can become the fastest player to reach 50 assists in the history of the San Jose Sharks (4-6-2) when they host the Detroit Red Wings (8-4-0) at SAP Center (8 p.m. ET; FDSNDET, NBCSCA). The 19-year-old forward has at least one point in seven straight games (six goals, seven assists) and 49 assists in 82 games, one short of the Sharks record held by defenseman Sandis Ozolinsh (50 assists in 111 games).
Columbus calling
The Columbus Blue Jackets (7-4-0) have won four straight games, and the third line of Mathieu Olivier, Charlie Coyle and Cole Sillinger has played a tremendous role with a combined 13 points (Olivier, one goal, three assists; Coyle, one goal, four assists; Sillinger, two goals, two assists) in wins against the Toronto Maple Leafs (6-3) and St. Louis Blues (3-2). The line leads the Blue Jackets into a visit to the New York Islanders (5-5-1) at UBS Arena (5 p.m. ET; FDSNOH, MSGSN).
Terry time
Troy Terry needs two points to become the ninth 300-point scorer in Anaheim Ducks history when they host the New Jersey Devils at Honda Center (8 p.m. ET; Victory+, MSGSN, KCOP-13). Terry has 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in 10 games this season for the Ducks (6-3-1) and 298 points (121 goals, 177 assists) in 437 games over nine seasons. He trails Rickard Rakell, who's eighth with 339 points (154 goals, 185 assists) in 550 games. The Devils (9-3-0) won 4-1 at the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday after two straight losses by a combined score of 13-6 to the Colorado Avalanche (8-4) and Sharks (5-2).
Logan's run
Logan Cooley is looking to become the third player in NHL history to score each of his first nine goals of a season in the same period, but he did not score in the opening period for the Utah Mammoth (8-3-0) against the Tampa Bay Lightning (5-4-2) at Delta Center on Sunday. Cooley, whose eight goals lead the Mammoth, became the first in NHL history to score each of his first eight goals in the first period when he scored in a 6-3 loss at the Edmonton Oilers on Oct. 28 to conclude a four-game road trip. He'll have his next chance to reach nine when Utah plays at the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday. The nine-game feat is shared by Jannik Hansen and Scott Young, who each scored his first nine goals of a season in the second period.
