NHL Results: Monday, November 9, 2026

Devon Levi stole the spotlight from his superstar teammates, turning aside 28 of 29 shots to push the Pacific-leading Oilers past the Rangers in a testy 3-1 battle in Edmonton. Connor McDavid got things rolling seven minutes into the opening frame with an unassisted strike, before Leon Draisaitl doubled the lead early in the second period off feeds from Vasily Podkolzin and Mattias Ekholm. New York answered right back when Jaroslav Chmelar converted a shorthanded rush courtesy of Mika Zibanejad, putting Dylan Garand and the Rangers right back in the mix. From there, Levi shut the door, weathering heavy pressure led by Adam Fox until Draisaitl struck again with under two minutes remaining, burying a shorthanded dagger to seal his two-goal night. Tempers boiled over shortly after, with J.T. Miller, Tye Kartye, and Ekholm all handed misconducts in a chaotic final minute. Now 13-3-3, Edmonton looks every bit like the class of the Western Conference.

Vancouver's nightmare start to the season went from bad to worse on Monday night, and Matvei Michkov was more than happy to twist the knife. The Flyers' dynamic Russian talent drove the bus in a disciplined 3-1 road victory, keeping the basement-dwelling Canucks completely out of rhythm. Michael Bunting got Philadelphia rolling just two minutes into the game off a slick feed from Christian Dvorak, who quietly collected two primary assists on the night. Early in the second period, Travis Konecny doubled the advantage on the power play, finishing off a sequence orchestrated by Michkov. Vancouver finally showed signs of life midway through the third period when rookie Jonathan Lekkerimäki hammered home a man-advantage blast set up by Brock Boeser and Elias Pettersson. Any comeback hopes evaporated in the final minute, however. With Vancouver pressing on a late power play, Travis Sanheim sealed the contest with a ruthless short-handed tally with just 59 seconds remaining. Joseph Woll stopped 18 of 19 shots, leaving the 3-16-1 Canucks desperately searching for answers.

Yaroslav Askarov and Ilya Sorokin turned San Jose into a premier Russian goaltending showcase, but young forward Ivar Stenberg ultimately decided the night. Stenberg solved Sorokin in the shootout to secure a 3-2 victory for the Sharks, capping a banner performance after scoring in regulation as well. Brock Hutton struck first for New York six minutes in, but Stenberg answered late in the opening frame. After Victor Eklund converted a power-play opportunity early in the second, Tyler Toffoli replied midway through the period to knot the score at two. Bad blood then erupted with eleven seconds left before the second intermission, producing simultaneous bouts between Barclay Goodrow and Mitchell Chaffee, alongside Ty Dellandrea and Kyle MacLean. From there, it was pure robbery in both creases. Sorokin denied 37 of 39 shots, but Askarov snatched the first star with 30 saves before Stenberg’s decisive shootout tally. San Jose banks two gritty points on home ice, while New York continues its California swing lamenting another squandered extra point.
