The hockey players of the New York Islanders in the line-up with the Slovak defender Zden Chár lost on Friday night in the overseas NHL with the Nashville Predators 3: 4.
Chara spent on ice 17:27 min. and he scored a minus point. He earned a five-minute penalty in the first period for the battle with the young Russian Jakov Trenin. He was given another two minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Watch the battle of Zdena Chára:
Chára avenged Trenin’s hard spot against Sebastian Ah’s defender. During the battle, he managed to pull the jersey on the opponent’s head, which he then covered with blows. The Russian attacker walked away from the ice with a bloodied face. He was sutured in the locker room, returned to the game and in the 53rd min. he even scored a leveling goal for the Predators at 3: 3. The NHL’s top man fought Trenin for the second time in his career, and they both dropped their gloves in January 2020, when Chara was still wearing a Boston jersey.
Trenin’s teammate Colton Sissons appreciated the courage to embark on a huge Slovak back: “I think that says a lot about his toughness. Very impressive from the young player that he stood face to face with Char and endured wrestling with him.” Trenin became only the twelfth player in NHL history to fight twice with “Big Z”.
“I was really excited about it. He hits a hard hit, he fights with Char, he can take his place. It was an incredible battle for both guys. I have to pick up the hardness that the guy has. “He came back, played great, showed his game again and finally scored a leveling goal. This shows his mental endurance, his bravery. It’s great for the organization to have a player in his midst with such mental and physical toughness.” “Predator” coach John Hynes said about Trenin.

In the entire history of the club, only the Czech Martin Erat managed to score the winning goal later in regular time, who in December 2011 in the match against Columbus decided in a balanced position nine seconds before the end.
The Islanders have lost twelve of the past 13 duels, having not yet won at home since moving to the new UBS Arena (0-2-5). “We played matches in this hall that we could have won. For some reason, we didn’t make it to the end. We were close, but it always turned to the opponent’s side.” “Islanders” captain Anders Lee told nhl.com.
Calgary s Adam Ružiček lost to Caroline 1: 2 after extra time, Sebastian Aho decided to gain two points for the Hurricanes. The Finnish center opened the scoring in the 5th minute and then scored the winning goal of the “hurricanes” in the fifth minute of overtime.

He also faced a penalty shot by Noah Hanifin, who failed in it, but later made up for it with a compensating goal. In his third season this season, Ružička played for Flames in 8:09 minutes, showing two points.

Dallas lost to Los Angeles 0: 4 without Andrej Seker. The Stars broke their teeth on goalkeeper Jonathan Quick, who eliminated all 27 of the opponent’s shots and achieved the second clean sheet of the season and the 56th in his career.

Chicago succeeded on the ice of Montreal 2: 0. Marc-Andre Fleury covered all 30 Canadiens and became the third goalkeeper in profiliga history to catch 500 winning matches in the regular season. Only the legends Martin Brodeur (691) and Patrick Roy (551) have more. Compared to them, however, Fleury reached the milestone the fastest, only 901 meetings were enough for him.
The Canadian veteran embellished the jubilee with his 69th clean account in a profiled career. “The NHL has always seemed distant to me, too good for me. I never thought I would achieve something like this. I will continue to try to catch and do my best.” said the 37-year-old goalkeeper, who was born in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec, where Montreal is located.
The spectators at the Bell Center honored him in the final seconds by chanting “Fleury! Fleury!”. “It means a lot to me that there were a lot of people from Quebec and they may have been proud of me, that I was a native of them and I achieved this goal.” The Blackhawks’ winning goal was scored by Captain Jonathan Toews, his first hit of the season. The Canadiens continue to worry, they lost the fifth game in a row.

Before the game with the Red Wings, he played only 25 games in the NHL, in which he scored a total of three goals. The Blues management called him to the first team from the farm in Springfield (AHL) only on Wednesday. It was his premier NHL game against Detroit this season.
“It was incredible. I don’t know what else to say. I’m so happy we got two points and can concentrate on the next match,” said the 26-year-old winger, who was born in Cardiff, Wales, but moved with his family to Sydney as a two-year-old and represents Australia on the international stage. Both guests’ goals were scored by Robby Fabbri, who presented himself on the ice to the former team for the first time since the St. Louis to Detroit in November 2019.
