Yesterday, Sunday, six games were on the NHL schedule.

Here are the results and highlights:

1. Cutter Gauthier's Third Hat Trick in Five Games

Cutter Gauthier has just achieved a feat that few players have accomplished.

He scored another hat trick, bringing his total to three in five games. He has 13 goals in his last six games.

He has seven goals in three home games.

He is the first player to do so since the 2023–2024 season.

Anaheim beat the Penguins 5-2, and it's worth noting that Gauthier isn't the only standout player on the Ducks.

Jackson LaCombe is also on a hot streak.

2. A spectacular goal by Mitch Marner

An afternoon game pitted the Sabres against the Golden Knights.

Jack Eichel was back in Buffalo and scored a goal.

But the best goal was scored by Mitch Marner.

Wow.

Vegas made short work of Buffalo, winning 4-1.

Midway through the period, Tomas Hertl drove the final nail into the opponent's coffin.

3. 126 penalty minutes in the Bruins-Panthers game

This afternoon, the Bruins hosted the Panthers.

Boston won 4-1, but it wasn't the score that stood out to me. In fact, the two teams racked up a total of 126 penalty minutes.

Penalties were handed out right from the start of the game.

Anton Lundell was sent to the penalty box for that hit on Charlie McAvoy.

The Bruins defenseman, who recorded an assist in the win, has returned to the game.

The game-winning goal was scored by Michael Eyssimont.

It was his first game of the season.

4. Flames Win, Spectacular Interview with Devin Cooley

The Flames won in overtime against the Flyers.

Devin Cooley was in net and, of course, he treated reporters to another legendary interview.

The goaltender stopped 32 of 35 shots in a 4-3 victory.

He was thrilled when Matt Coronato scored the game-winning goal in overtime.

Joel Farabee, playing against his former team, forced the game into overtime.

A shorthanded goal.

5. Brayden Yager's first goal

The Lightning were on the road in Winnipeg.

Tampa Bay almost did to the Jets what the Jets had done to the Canadiens. In the third period, the home team was leading by three goals. Tampa came back from behind and tied the game.

It was thanks to two goals in 26 seconds by Pontus Holmberg.

But, with one second left in the game, Mark Scheifele dashed the Lightning's comeback.

A Jets victory that should certainly please the Habs and the other Atlantic Division teams.

In the win, Brayden Yager scored his first NHL goal.

It was the third goal of the game.

Overtime

– Great save.

– Finally.
