Toews gave the Avalanche a 1-0 lead at 7:49 of the first period when he got a high-slot tip of Makar’s wrister from the right point. Makar earned his 400th NHL point on the assist, making him the third-fastest defenseman in NHL history to reach the milestone in his 374th game. Only Bobby Orr (333) and Paul Coffey (359) did it in fewer games.

Brandon Hagel netted a short-handed goal, his third tally against Seattle this season, and had an assist to help the Tampa Bay Lightning post their season-high fifth straight win, topping the visiting Kraken 4-1 on Sunday night.

Gabriel Vilardi scored twice as the Winnipeg Jets defeated the host St. Louis Blues 4-3 in a shootout Saturday night to extend their winning streak to nine games. Nikolaj Ehlers also scored and Cole Perfetti earned two assists for the Jets.
