Watch: Kings’ late tying goal disallowed on goalie interference

A goaltender interference ruling finally went the Edmonton Oilers' way.

The Los Angeles Kings thought they'd scored the tying goal in the final seconds Saturday night, but it was wiped out on a goalie inteference review.

Dustin Brown forced the puck over the line by pushing into Oilers goaltender Cam Talbot's pad.

A goal wasn't actually signaled in real time, but the officials reviewed the play after the final buzzer and determined it was in.

However, the war room in Toronto then initiated an automatic review for goaltender interference, after which the league ruled there was interference on the play, so the final call was "no goal."

It's the first challenge won by Todd McLellan as Oilers head coach, according to Sportsnet.

Report: Sharks, Ducks, Flyers looking at Evander Kane

The San Jose Sharks, Anaheim Ducks, and, to a "lesser extent," the Philadelphia Flyers are three teams reportedly looking at Buffalo Sabres forward Evander Kane as a potential trade target, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.

Teams interested in acquiring Kane could be waiting to see what the return might be in a Rick Nash trade, according to McKenzie.

Kane is in the final season of his six-year, $31.5-million contract and will become an unrestricted free agent July 1.

The 26-year-old has put up 20 goals and 20 assists on an ailing Sabres club that currently sits just one point ahead of the 31st-ranked Arizona Coyotes. With three more points he'll match his 43-point total from last season.

Report: Rangers, Bruins working on potential Rick Nash trade

The Boston Bruins and New York Rangers are still working on a possible trade involving Rick Nash, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.

A deal is not expected to be completed Saturday night and there are cap-related challenges standing in the way, adds Dreger.

The Bruins have a little more than $2 million in cap space, according to CapFriendly, so they would need to figure out a way to accommodate the pending unrestricted free-agent forward's $7.8-million cap hit.

Report: Bergeron leaves in walking boot after loss to Maple Leafs

The Boston Bruins might have an additional concern as the trade deadline draws ever closer.

Patrice Bergeron left the dressing room wearing a walking boot on his right leg after Saturday's loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs, according to NHL.com's Mike Zeisberger.

The talented center suffered an apparent shot-block injury that didn't reveal itself until after the game, per Postmedia's Lance Hornby.

Bergeron led all Bruins forwards in ice time (19:15) and was on the ice for the final 1:23 of Saturday's contest.

Report: Panthers showing serious interest in McDonagh

Add a recently resurgent team from South Florida to the list of reported suitors for one of the most coveted deadline targets.

The Florida Panthers are showing serious interest in New York Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

McDonagh has a 10-team no-trade list that reportedly doesn't include the Toronto Maple Leafs or the Panthers' cross-state rivals, the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Florida has won seven of its last 10, including a huge 6-5 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday night.

The win was the team's 10th of the month and established a new franchise record for the most wins in February.

The Maple Leafs have gone 10-2-0 in February, and with two games remaining against the Tampa Bay Lightning and Florida Panthers before the month is out, the club could add to their current record.

Watch: Leafs defeat Bruins after late controversial goal upheld

Saturday's matchup between the rival Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs wasn't without controversy.

With 1:23 remaining in the final frame, Maple Leafs blue-liner Ron Hainsey beat Bruins netminder Tuukka Rask with a point shot only moments after he was bumped in the crease.

The play was reviewed for goalie interference but the on-ice call ultimately stood. Rask disagreed with that decision postgame.

"I'm pretty sure I would've stopped that puck if I was there," Rask told TSN's Frank Seravalli. "I just couldn't get there on time. I was interfered with."

Crucial to the win was that it gave the Maple Leafs 83 points on the season, moving them one ahead of the Bruins for second in the Atlantic.

Carter returns to Kings’ lineup after 55-game absence

The Los Angeles Kings will welcome back their leading scorer from last season Saturday night, as Jeff Carter returns from a 55-game absence, the team announced.

Carter has been out since Oct. 18 when his ankle was cut by a skate in a game against the Montreal Canadiens.

The addition should come as a huge boost for the Kings. Last season, the 33-year-old led the team with 32 goals and 66 points in 82 games and was awarded the Bill Libby Memorial Award as the Kings' Most Valuable Player.

Prior to the injury, Carter had put up three assists in six contests.

Watch: Stamkos drops gloves with Alzner after hit on Kucherov

Steven Stamkos isn't known as a fighter, but that didn't stop him from coming to the defense of teammate Nikita Kucherov on Saturday.

After Montreal Canadiens blue-liner Karl Alzner lined up Kucherov with a near knee-on-knee hit, Stamkos responded, dropping the gloves with the veteran rearguard.

The two traded a few jabs in the otherwise underwhelming scuffle. When the dust settled, Alzner was handed a five-minute major, while Stamkos walked away with a major penalty, a 10-minute misconduct, and an instigator call.

It marked the third fight of Stamkos' career, with his most recent bout coming against Brad Marchand in 2015.

Report: Bruins have interest in Rick Nash

The Boston Bruins reportedly have interest in New York Rangers forward Rick Nash and are engaged in ongoing discussions about acquiring him, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.

Dreger points out that the Bruins' current cap situation complicates a potential deal. The team has just over $2 million in cap space, while Nash carries a hit of $7.8 million.

Nash is in his sixth season with the Rangers and is just two goals shy of his 12th 20-goal campaign.

The Bruins look to be going all-in heading into the playoffs. The club currently sits second in the Eastern Conference, just three points back of the Tampa Bay Lightning for top spot.
