Notable:
Nikolaj Ehlers picked up his 300th point (133 goals 167 assists) of his career and the assist summed up the Dynamic Dane perfectly as he made the perfect dish to Mark Scheifele to tie the game. He’s now in sole possession of 8th spot on the franchise assist board (was tied with Andrew Ladd).
Trevor Lewis is becoming quite the shorthanded specialist as two of his three goals this season have come with a man short.
For the first time in his career Andrew Copp hit the 20 assist mark which he did in his 43rd game of the season. His previous high was 19 in 82 games back in 2017-18.
