Preview Roundups
April 17, 2017
Ottawa at Boston 7:00 PM ET
The Ottawa Senators were 20 minutes from dropping both home games and falling into an 0-2 hole in their Eastern Conference first-round series before staging a dramatic rally. The Senators look to ride the momentum from Saturday's come-from-behind win in overtime when they visit the Boston Bruins on Monday in Game 3 of the best-of-seven set.
Washington at Toronto 7:00 PM ET
The two-time reigning Presidents' Trophy-winning Washington Capitals are getting all they can handle from the upstart Toronto Maple Leafs, a rookie-laden team that many thought was at least two years away from being a serious contender in the Eastern Conference. After splitting two decisions following 157 spirited minutes of hockey, the Capitals look to gain the upper hand as the first-round series shifts to Toronto for Game 3 on Monday.
Chicago at Nashville 9:30 PM ET
The Chicago Blackhawks own a championship pedigree in recent years that is unrivaled in the NHL, but they will need more than a storied history to climb back into their Western Conference first-round series. The top-seeded Blackhawks are in must-win territory when they visit the upstart Nashville Predators in Game 3 on Monday night.
Anaheim at Calgary 10:00 PM ET
Anaheim Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf has made himself at home against the Calgary Flames by collecting a goal and an assist in both contests of the Western Conference first-round series. After a fortunate bounce helped his team gain a 2-0 edge in the series and extend their 11-year home dominance over the Flames, Getzlaf and the Ducks take their show on the road for Game 3 at Scotiabank Saddledome on Monday.
