Today’s NHL games:
NSH vs. NYI – TBL vs. WSH – CGY vs. FLA – BOS vs. PIT – DET vs. CBJ – MTL vs. BUF – SJS vs. OTT – EDM vs. CAR – PHI vs. WPG – LAK vs. STL – NJD vs. UTA – CHI vs. ANA – VAN vs. SEA
* Linesman Justin Johnson is listed for two games (BOS/PIT & MTL/BUF). Obviously, he can’t work ’em both… Actually, he could probably make it from Pittsburgh to Buffalo in time, but the NHLOA CBA won’t allow it. We’ll update as soon as we get clarification on which game he’s working and which liney will handle the other.

Number in orange/parentheses indicated referee’s rank among active officials.
* Penalty Differential represents the absolute value of the variance of penalty calls by team per game. If Team A takes two more penalties (or two fewer) than Team B, this is a 2. Lower numbers indicate less variance between total penalties in a game – that is, a closer number of calls for both teams.
