It is a busy night in the NHL, with 11 games on tap, featuring eight of the top 10 teams in the standings, including the Vancouver Canucks (first), Florida Panthers (third), and New York Rangers (fourth).

As we inch closer to the March 8 trade deadline and the end of the regular season, wins and points are at a premium these days, meaning every contest is vital to a club's position in the NHL standings.
