In an exciting overtime match at PPG Paints Arena, Simon Edvinsson scored his second goal of the season to lead the Detroit Red Wings to a 3-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Patrick Kane added a goal and an assist for the Red Wings, while Talbot made 31 saves, achieving his 250th NHL win. Despite contributions from Bryan Rust and Anthony Beauvillier, who both scored for Pittsburgh, the Penguins fell short after a spirited comeback from a 2-0 deficit.

The game highlighted standout performances, including Malkin and Sidney Crosby's six shots on goal each, although Blake Lizotte left the game after a puck hit his face.
Washington Capitals 3 - 4 Toronto Maple Leafs
The Toronto Maple Leafs orchestrated a thrilling comeback to defeat the Washington Capitals 4-3 in overtime, with John Tavares scoring the decisive goal with just 47 seconds remaining. The game saw the Maple Leafs overcome a 3-1 deficit in the third period after goals from William Nylander and Mitch Marner, the latter tying the game with just 48 seconds left.

John Tavares's overtime winner marked his 18th career overtime goal, setting him fifth all-time in NHL history. Washington's coach, Spencer Carbery, expressed disappointment in his team's performance after they failed to maintain a two-goal lead, leading to their first loss of the season for goaltender Logan Thompson, who made 31 saves. The victory was marred slightly for Toronto by Auston Matthews' continued absence due to injury, while veteran defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson played his milestone 1,000th NHL game and Jani Hakanpaa made his season debut.
