Exciting Monday NHL Games to Watch
Detroit Red Wings vs. Columbus Blue Jackets (7 p.m. ET; BSDET, BSOH)
Don’t miss the matchup between the Detroit Red Wings and the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight at 7 p.m. ET. The Red Wings have had an impressive start to the season, with offseason acquisitions Alex DeBrincat, Daniel Sprong, and J.T. Compher leading the charge. These talented players have already scored six out of the team’s nine goals in the first two games. DeBrincat’s standout performance has made history as he becomes the first Red Wings player to achieve this feat since Harry Watson in 1942-43 and Bobby Ryan in 2020-21. On the other side, keep an eye on Columbus forward Patrik Laine, who is just one goal away from reaching his 200th career goal in the NHL.
Florida Panthers vs. New Jersey Devils (7 p.m. ET; MSGN, BSFL)
The Florida Panthers are gearing up for an exciting faceoff against the New Jersey Devils tonight at 7 p.m. ET. The Panthers have had a bit of a slow start to the season, losing their first two games, which is a rarity for them since 2018. However, all eyes will be on their seasoned coach, Paul Maurice, who will be coaching his 1,769th game tonight, surpassing Joel Quenneville to claim the third spot in NHL history. Additionally, keep an eye on Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton, who has the chance to become the 10th player in franchise history to achieve a three-game goal streak at the start of a regular season.
Arizona Coyotes vs. New York Rangers (7 p.m. ET; SCRIPPS, MSG)
Get ready for an action-packed game between the Arizona Coyotes and the New York Rangers tonight at 7 p.m. ET. Arizona defenseman Matt Dumba is set to play his 600th NHL game, joining the elite group of the 2012 NHL Draft Class to reach this milestone. The Rangers defensemen have been on fire, contributing seven points in just two games, with Adam Fox leading the charge with three assists.
Chicago Blackhawks vs. Toronto Maple Leafs (7 p.m. ET; TVAS, SN, NBCSCH)
It’s a thrilling match as the Chicago Blackhawks take on the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight at 7 p.m. ET. The Blackhawks are in the midst of a five-game road trip, with their final game against the formidable Colorado Avalanche on Thursday. Corey Perry has been a key playmaker for the Blackhawks, currently tied with Bedard for the team’s scoring lead with three points, all assists. Toronto’s star player, Auston Matthews, has already racked up an impressive six points, while William Nylander and John Tavares are close behind with five points each.
Calgary Flames vs. Washington Capitals (7 p.m. ET; MNNT, TVAS-D, SNF)
The matchup between the Calgary Flames and the Washington Capitals promises to be a thrilling contest tonight at 7 p.m. ET. Washington goaltender Darcy Kuemper is expected to make his season debut, following the birth of his first child, which caused him to miss the home opener. Keep an eye on Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin, as he is just one power-play goal away from becoming the first player in NHL history to achieve 300 power-play goals. The Flames are also hungry for a win on their five-game road trip after a disappointing 5-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. Look out for Jonathan Huberdeau, who has an impressive track record against the Capitals, boasting 24 points in 27 games (seven goals, 17 assists).
