SNEAK PEEK AT SATURDAY’S ACTION

OFFSEASON ACQUISITIONS HOFFMAN, DOMI LOOK TO EXTEND POINT STREAKS

Panthers forward Mike Hoffman (7-9—16 in 14 GP) and Canadiens forward Max Domi (5-7—12 in 8 GP) each look to extend their point streak on Saturday:

* Hoffman set a Panthers franchise record Thursday by notching a point in a 14th consecutive game. A point Saturday would make him the first player to record a point streak of at least 15 games in his first season with a club since 2005-06, when Dany Heatley (17-21—38) had a 22-game run with the Senators.

* Only 10 different players in NHL history have had a point streak of at least 15 games during their first season with a franchise, with Wayne Gretzkythe only one to do so multiple times. Gretzky had streaks of 23 games and 16 games in 1988-89 with the Kings, and a 15-game run in 1996-97 with the Rangers.

* Domi leads the Canadiens with 10-13—23 in his first 19 games with the club, already exceeding his goal total from both 2016-17 (9 G in 59 GP) and 2017-18 (9 G in 82 GP) with the Coyotes. One point Saturday would make Domi the highest-scoring player through his first 20 games in aCanadiens uniform since 1919-20.

* Only nine players in franchise history have recorded a point streak of at least nine games during their first campaign with the club, most recently achieved by Pierre Turgeon in 1994-95 (11-9—20 in 13 GP).
