Utah gave up a 2-0 lead in the third period.

The Blue Jackets tied the game at 2-2 at 11:42 when Johnson’s wrist shot hit Vejmelka and the rebound fell to his side. Utah defenseman Nick DeSimone accidentally kicked the puck into his own net.

Dallas Stars and St. Louis Blues
The Avalanche’s power play, which had been quiet recently, scored in the latter part of the first period. Drouin scored his second goal at 14:43 when Alexey Toropchenko’s clearing attempt went right to Drouin, and he beat Hofer with a high shot. It was his second two-goal game of the season.

Before the game, the Canucks traded Miller, defenseman Erik Brannstrom, and prospect Jackson Dorrington to the New York Rangers in exchange for forward Filip Chytil, defenseman Victor Mancini, and a conditional 2025 first-round draft pick. Miller had long been rumored to be traded due to his reported tension with Elias Pettersson.

Brady Skjei contributed a goal and an assist for Nashville, which has now lost three straight after a five-game winning streak.

At 2:25, McLeod managed to push in a rebound from Dahlin’s shot. A little more than six minutes later, Kulich skated in unguarded and scored on Annunen.

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun earned his first career All-Star selection on Thursday, but it wasn’t a great day for him or his team.
Sengun missed his first game of the season due to a bruised calf, and the Rockets lost 120-119 to Memphis, which pulled the Grizzlies to within a half-game of Houston for the second seed in the Western Conference. The result also tied the two teams atop the Southwest Division standings.
Sengun, listed as questionable, may miss another game when the Rockets try to hold on to their division lead against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday.
Sengun is averaging 19.1 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 5.0 assists this season. Injuries are starting to pile up for the Rockets, who have been without starting forward Jabari Smith Jr. (hand) since January 1, and reserve forward Tari Eason, who has played 31 games but is still dealing with leg soreness.
Only five Rockets have played at least 40 games this season, with guard Jalen Green leading the way. Green has started 151 consecutive games since February 26, 2023, and has missed just 21 games in his three-plus seasons with the Rockets. His consistency has helped the team as they try to build a strong foundation.
“It’s something you don’t take for granted. He hasn’t missed a game since I’ve been here,” said second-year Rockets coach Ime Udoka. “He plays through everything—injuries, pain, things that most guys would sit out for. That takes a certain toughness.”
Alperen Sengun reacts in the 1st half
“Even though he’s not the most physical guy, his ability to play through everything is valuable,” Udoka added. “Many nights, he’s been sick or had swelling, but he still plays. We saw that last year when he played all 82 games, and he’s continued that this season, showing his competitiveness and toughness.”
The Nets snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 104-83 win at Charlotte on Wednesday, breaking a stretch where they lost 12 of 13 games.
Brooklyn was without several key players, including Cam Thomas (hamstring), Bojan Bogdanovic (foot), Noah Clowney (ankle), and Cameron Johnson (ankle). However, they welcomed back Ben Simmons after a five-game absence due to illness. Trendon Watford also returned to action, scoring nine points and grabbing four rebounds in his first game since December 16.
Despite the injuries, Brooklyn had six players score in double figures in the win. Coach Jordi Fernandez emphasized that with a short-handed roster, sharing the ball and balanced scoring was key.
“The ball’s got energy. If the ball moves and everybody scores, everybody touches the ball, that really makes a difference,” Fernandez said. “We’ve had seven games where multiple guys have been in double digits, and that’s how we want to play.”

Charlotte Hornets (NBA)
