Staal had served as Hurricanes captain since the 2009-10 season."I think it's been quiet more so for the guys who have been around here his whole career," Peters said. "I've only been here for two years, but I'll tell you what -- Eric Staal was a big piece, a 6-foot-4 centerman and we're going to miss him obviously and New York will benefit from the acquisition, but that's the reality of the situation we're in right now." https://www.nhl.com/news/carolina-hurricanes-new-jersey-devils-recap/c-279277924?tid=279141020 Edited March 2, 2016 by Guns of the Patriots Quote Link to comment

Dumba opens the scoring CHI@MIN: Dumba nets juicy rebound for an early lead 51 • 4:30 AM "The win," he said.Minnesota's third line of Erik Haula centering left wing Nino Niederreiter and right wing Jason Pominville combined for three goals and eight points. Pominville had a goal and two assists."Our line has been playing with confidence," Pominville said. "I think at one point [in the season] I was just thinking too much and not going out there and playing. And I just said go out there and play and have fun and that's what we've been doing."Along with Pominville, Haula also had a goal and two assists to equal the record for points in a regular-season outdoor NHL game achieved by seven other players. Matt Dumba, Thomas Vanek and Ryan Carter also scored for the Wild (27-22-10), who extended their franchise-best streak of scoring five goals in a game to four straight games.Goaltender Devan Dubnyk, who made 31 saves for the Wild, had his shutout end with 7:55 left in the third when Patrick Kane scored along the goal line below the right circle. The goal by Kane was his 35th of the season for the Blackhawks (38-19-5).
