* Down 2-0, the Blues scored five unanswered goals to rally past the Coyotes and pick up their seventh victory in their last eight contests (7-1-0). Vladimir Tarasenko (1-1—2) scored the game-winning goal and added an assist to extend his point streak to six games (3-5—8). With 37 goals in 2015-16, Tarasenko (37-34—71) ranks fourth in the NHL and matched his single-season career high from 2014-15. At 48-23-9 (105 points), the Blues tied the idle Stars (48-23-9, 105 points) — in terms of points — for the top record in the Western Conference. Dallas, however, owns the ROW tiebreaker (DAL: 46, STL: 43).

Barkov moved into a share of second place in the NHL with eight game-winning goals this season, trailing only Joe Pavelski (10). At 45-25-9 (99 points), the Panthers established a franchise record for points in a season, eclipsing the previous total from 1999-00 (43-27-12, 98 points), and increased their lead to four points over the Lightning (45-29-5, 95 points) for first place in the Atlantic Division.

* John Tavares collected 1-2—3 to lead the Islanders to a 10-2-1 record in their past 13 home games and prevent the Lightning from clinching a playoff spot. Tavares (30-34—64) reached the 30-goal mark for the third time in his NHL career (also 2014-15: 38 and 2011-12: 31). At 43-26-9 (95 points), the Islanders remain two points back of the Rangers for third place in the Metropolitan Division.

PLENTY AT STAKE ON 11-GAME TUESDAY SLATE
The pursuit of division titles, playoff berths, postseason positioning and individual milestones highlight Tuesday's 11-game schedule:

* The Bruins play host to the Hurricanes with an opportunity to leapfrog the idle Red Wings into third place in the Atlantic Division.
* The Islanders, who could clinch a playoff berth, travel to Washington for a meeting with goaltender Braden Holtby and the Capitals. Holtby is one win shy of tying Martin Brodeur for the NHL’s single-season wins record (48, 2006-07).
* The Lightning look to wrap up a playoff berth against the Rangers, who are chasing the second-place Penguins and trying to fend off the fourth-place Islanders in the tight Metropolitan Division race.
* The Panthers vie for the Atlantic Division title at Montreal.
* The Penguins, 12-1-0 in their past 13 games, continue their drive for the No. 2 playoff seed in the Metropolitan Division at Ottawa.
* The Avalanche attempt to close the gap on the Wild for the second Wild Card berth in the Western Conference when they take on the Predators.
* The Wild could clinch a playoff berth on home ice against the Sharks, who look to set a franchise record for road victories in a season and who sit just four points out of first place in the Pacific Division.
* The Blackhawks, who trail the Central Division-leading Stars and Blues by six points, attempt to close the gap against the Coyotes.
* The Ducks and Kings, separated by one point atop the Pacific Division, both are in action. The first-place Ducks host Winnipeg while the Kings are in Calgary.
