It's not the Stanley Cup Playoffs if things don't get heated between opponents, and it appears some hard feeling between St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington and Nazem Kadri of the Colorado Avalanche spilled over off the ice Saturday night. After just three shots against in game three, Binnington was knocked out of the game following a collision in his net that involved Kadri.

The Kadri-Binnington water-bottle incident has been closed, as far as the NHL in concerned. St. Louis Blues' goaltender Jordan Binnington was knocked out of game three following a collision in his net that included his own player Calle Rosen, and Nazem Kadri of the Colorado Avalanche. It has since been announced Binnington will miss the remainder of the series. While Kadri was doing a post-game interview, he mentioned that Binnington threw a water bottle at him.

Blues D Calle Rosen also collided into Binnington, but Kadri was crashing the net with purpose. It's tough to say if Kadri took a run at Binnington or not, but he definitely crashed into the Blues' netminder & Binnington definitely left the game.

Despite Connor McDavid putting on a dominating performance once again in the Edmonton Oilers' decisive 4-1 victory over the Calgary Flames on Sunday night, plenty of the chatter afterwards was regarding Milan Lucic.

The Carolina Hurricanes are taking a 2-0 series lead into New York today for their afternoon Game 3 against the Rangers. They have a bit of extra cargo for this trip. Netminder Frederik Andersen is making the trip with the team. Andersen sustained an undisclosed lower-body injury against the Colorado Avalanche on April 16th. Injured players typically do not travel with the team. This is a good sign that he is making progress in his rehab and might be close to returning to the lineup.

So after 86 years of zero success, what changed?
