A look at the key moments of the NHL season so far

The NHL season left for an electric start, filled with exciting games and unexpected twists and turns. Breathtaking highlights with surprising setbacks, these first weeks were anything but ordinary.

Let’s take a look at some of the out -of -competition moments so far.

The historic day of Jessica Campbell

October 8 was a special day for hockey. During Seattle Kraken’s first home game against the Blues of St. Louis, deputy coach Jessica Campbell received a break in applause when his name was announced.

She became the first woman to be full -time assistant coach in the NHL – a revolutionary moment for the game and women in sport.

The calm smile of Campbell reflected the meaning of the event while the spotlights moved to the head coach Dan Bylsma.

Working alongside Bylsma, with years of experience in the affiliate of Kraken Ahl, Campbell has proven that it belongs to this level. It is a step forward inspiring for sport.

Utah caused a sensation

On October 8, the Utah hockey club patinated in the history of the club when it took the ice for its very first NHL match, finally beating the Chicago 5-2 Blackhawks at the Delta Center.

The team, trained a few months earlier, includes many former Arizona Coyotes players who wanted to come back to the ice after their franchise has paused.

The night was full of energy, with applauding fans while the players were walking on a blue carpet to make their debut on their new jerseys.

The NBA star, Lauri Markkanen, made a surprise appearance, skating to deliver the ceremony washer to the Ryan and Ashley Smith team owners.

The crowd broke out when Dylan Guenther scored the first goal of the team, scoring the start of something special in Utah.

A tribute to Johnny Gaudreau

On October 15, the Blue Jackets Columbus paid a sincere tribute to Johnny Gaudreau, whose life was tragically interrupted in August.

During the opening confrontation against the Florida Panthers, the Blue Jackets left the usual left position of Gaudreau Vident, a gesture of silent but powerful memory.

Referee Trevor Hanson dropped the washer, and for 13 seconds (Gaudreau de Gaudreau’s jersey number) stopped in memory of this gifted player, his loss deeply felt by fans and players.

The former teammate Sean Monahan directed the washer to the place where Gaudreau would have been, symbolizing the link they shared on the ice.

It was a moving moment of respect for a player who left an unforgettable brand on sport and his community.

Joseph Brothers combines with a goal

The Joseph brothers delivered one of the most comforting moments of the season on October 19. Mathieu and Pierre-Olivier Joseph joined forces for a goal to be set during the second period of the victory of St. Louis Blues in overtime against the Hurricans of Caroline.

Pierre-Olivier, playing in La Défense, set up the game by passing to Brayden Schenn, who found Mathieu near the net.

Mathieu then turned and pulled a wrist shot, electrifying the crowd and equaling the match at 1-1. Their proud parents, seated in the business center, jumped on their feet, overwhelmed on the occasion.

It was far from the moment when the brothers accidentally stimulated themselves in a match last January, showing how they came.

Stamkos returns to Tampa

Steven Stamkos, a legend of Tampa Bay for 16 seasons, made an emotional return to Amalia Arena on October 28.

Now, with the Nashville predators, the Double Champion of the Stanley Cup was welcomed again with a standing ovation. The fans broke out when a tribute video played, presenting its unforgettable moments in a lightning jersey.

After the tribute, Stamkos patinated a turn, raising his stick to recognize the roaring crowd. His former teammates watched with admiration, a reminder of the inheritance he left. Stamkos’ n ° 91 is sure to cling to the rafters one day, cementing its place in the history of Tampa hockey.

Fleur Bide Defee à Pittsburgh

Affectionately known as “Flower” by fans and teammates, Marc-Andre Fleury’s last match for Pittsburgh was a moment that fans will not forget. On October 29, the Penguins faced the Wild of Minnesota and Fleury delivered a stellar performance, stopping 26 shots to conduct its team to a 5-3 victory.

While the last horn sounds, the 39 -year -old goalkeeper went around the victory around PPG Pains Arena to a thunderous standing ovation.

Former Sidney Crosby and Kris Letang teammates stayed on the ice to watch, showing their respect for the goalkeeper who helped the Penguins win three Stanley cups.

With his family there to attend the sincere farewell, the emotions ran high, Fleury would have shed tears in the post-match changing rooms.

For fans remembering these championship years, it was an unforgettable night – and one who checked the last NHL Fanduel’s NHL rays to see how the Fleury team is made up this season.

Barkov Lives Dream in perfect house

For Aleksander Barkov, playing in Tampere, Finland, was not only another regular season game – it was personal.

The captain of the panthers returned to his hometown, where he grew up a few minutes from Nokia Arena, to lead his team in the NHL World series. He played in front of friends, family and community who shaped his hockey career.

Barkov was the subject of the occasion, showing a goal and three assists in an exciting victory of 6-4 against the stars of Dallas. The next day, he added another assist to help his teammates in Florida to another victory, which makes his return temporary to remember.

Dance of Roenick’s Hall of Fame

Jeremy Roenick stole the spotlight during the Hockey Hall of Fame weekend in Toronto. At the Hyundai Legends Classic on November 10, the 54 -year -old man had fans on their feet – not just with his three goals, but with his energy and his humor.

During a dead time, he caught a microphone, held at central ice and made the crowd dance to “close and dance” by Walk The Moon.

Roenick showed his movements, reliving for a fun moment that he made his debut years ago in Las Vegas. The fans loved every second, which makes it a highlight of the celebration. Roenick’s charm has proven, once again, why he is a favorite of fans.
