Trailing 0–2 midway through the second period, Dahlin stepped into a power-play opportunity and ripped one home to cut the deficit to 2–1 — his 100th career NHL goal. The Buffalo captain eventually helped force a comeback, with Peyton Krebs tying it late in the third and Tage Thompson and Jack Quinn converting in a shootout for a 3–2 win that kept the Sabres ahead of Tampa Bay in the Atlantic by two points.

Back in the lineup after missing 15 games with a lower-body injury sustained at the Milan Olympics, Rantanen wasted no time reestablishing Dallas's top power-play unit. He and Robertson assisted on each other's goals in a three-minute span in the second period — Robertson finishing his for his 40th of the season, then Rantanen burying a no-look cross-ice feed from Robertson for his own PP tally. Dallas pulled away for a 6–3 win, snapping a four-game skid. Robertson's 40th makes him the third player in Stars/North Stars history with three 40-goal seasons.

On a power play in the first period with Winnipeg, Nazem Kadri fed Brock Nelson, who redirected the puck home to tie the game 1–1 — the secondary assist going to Cale Makar for the 500th point of his NHL career. Makar reached the plateau in just 392 games, the second-fastest pace by any defenceman in the cap era behind only his own trajectory. He had been sitting one point away from the milestone heading into Saturday's game.

With Montreal already leading 2–0 midway through the second period in Nashville, Caufield took a pass off the wall and ripped a wrister home to make it 3–0 — his 45th goal of the season. The Canadiens went on to win 4–1, and Caufield's tally extended his standing as one of the most prolific goal scorers in the league this season. At age 24, the Wisconsin native is on pace for a career-high in goals and is firmly in the Maurice Richard Trophy conversation.

Just 11:34 into the first period in Nashville, Demidov took a neutral-zone turnover, skated in on the rush, and ripped a wrister off the post and in — his 16th of the season and the play on which Suzuki recorded the 300th assist of his NHL career. The goal set the tone for a dominant 4–1 Canadiens win, their fourth straight, as Montreal climbed into third place in the Atlantic Division. Suzuki reached the milestone at just 26 years old, having served as the Habs' captain and offensive engine through the team's rebuild.

Tippett notched the third hat trick of his NHL career — and his third career four-point night — driving Philadelphia to a 4–0 lead before Detroit's stunning late push. He scored first on a breakaway, added a second on a rush in the second period, then completed the hat trick with a power-play goal early in the third to chase John Gibson from net. Detroit scored three times in 2:31 to make it a one-goal game, but Sean Couturier's empty-netter sealed a 5–3 final. Tippett now has seven goals in his last nine games.

Staring down a 4–0 deficit to Philadelphia with just over six minutes remaining, the Red Wings staged a frantic late rally — Mason Appleton, Alex DeBrincat (his 37th), and Lucas Raymond all scored in a span of 2 minutes and 31 seconds to suddenly make it 4–3. The comeback fell just short, with Sean Couturier's empty-netter restoring a two-goal margin for the Flyers. It matched the second time this season Detroit mounted a near-four-goal comeback in regulation, a testament to the team's late-game resiliency even in a disappointing loss.

After Vegas had surged to a 4–3 lead early in the third, Strome broke a 17-game goal drought by one-timing a shot from the right circle on the power play to tie the game 4–4 — then delivered the decisive blow by roofing a backhand past Adin Hill on the first shot of the shootout to give Washington a 5–4 victory. It was a fitting hero turn for the Capitals' assistant captain, who had hit the post on the very first shot of the game and quarterbacked the team's third-period response after coughing up a 3–0 lead.

Just 25 seconds after Nic Dowd's shorthanded tally, Rasmus Andersson charged through the Capitals' defense and tucked a forehand around Logan Thompson's pad to make it 2–3 — two shorthanded goals on the same penalty kill. Andersson's goal came with a secondary assist from Jack Eichel, whose rebound set up the sequence that ultimately led to the next Vegas goal as well.

Playing his first game against his former Washington Capitals, Nic Dowd — acquired by Vegas at the trade deadline on March 5 — sparked the Golden Knights' dramatic second-period rally by stealing the puck in the slot and snapping a shorthanded goal past Logan Thompson to make it 1–3. It was the fifth shorthanded goal of his career and his first as a Golden Knight. The goal immediately ignited Vegas's three-goal blitz that erased a 0–3 hole and tied the game within 2:40.

Deep into a lopsided 7–3 Flames victory over Vancouver, Parekh capped a dominant team performance by depositing a sharp chip pass from Coronato past the Canucks' defender and in — his goal and assist giving him a multi-point night to go alongside Coronato's team-leading three-point performance. Calgary's win extended their remarkable streak to 55 consecutive victories when scoring four or more goals. Parekh, 19, continues to stake his claim as one of the most dynamic offensive defencemen in the league and a cornerstone of Calgary's future.
