Key NHL Games To Watch For The Week Of March 9
Watch every game of the NHL season on DAZN
The NHL season resumed on Wednesday after nearly a three-week Olympic break, as we are now on the road to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Every remaining game of the NHL season will be live on DAZN with NHL.TV worldwide, excluding Canada and the U.S.
It is expected to be a memorable stretch between now and June.
Each week, DAZN News will take a look at three games to watch on NHL.TV on DAZN.Pittsburgh Penguins @ Carolina Hurricanes: Tuesday, March 10/Wednesday, March 11 (7pm ET/11pm GMT/1am CEST)
Two of the top six teams in the Eastern Conference, separated by just eight points, lock horns at a pivotal point in the season. Carolina (40-17-6) is 7-2-1 in their last 10 games, while Pittsburgh is 4-3-3. The Penguins (32-17-14) are without star Evgeni Malkin for five games as he got suspended for slashing Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin.
Edmonton Oilers at Colorado Avalanche: Tuesday, March 10/Wednesday, March 11 (10pm ET/2am GMT/4am CEST)
Like the above matchup, two of the top seven teams in the Western Conference do battle with the league's best player Connor McDavid, leading the Oilers (31-25-8) against the best team in the NHL, the Avalanche (43-10-9).
Colorado has won five games in a row, while it's a must-win for the Oilers, who have gone 4-6-1 in their last 10 games as they are in the backend of the playoffs and sitting in seventh.
Boston Bruins @ Washington Capitals: Saturday, March 14 (3pm ET/7pm GMT/9pm CEST)
Two powerhouses in the East are now looking to find their way into the playoffs. Boston (35-22-6) is in the eighth spot, and Washington (31-26-7) is on the outside looking in, currently in 12th. Both teams need a W in the worst way possible, or it will be a long offseason.
