Back-to-back games for both the Washington Capitals and Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night. The Capitals lost to the Carolina Hurricanes while the Canadiens edged the Buffalo Sabres in a shootout. It was another strong defensive game for the Canadiens allowing only 17 shots through 65 minutes.

In Washington, the Canadiens played well, but it was another rough night for Jakub Dobes in net as they fell 5-4. Wilde Horses When the Canadiens finish building their team, they will have three lines that are going to be formidable. The top line is the Nick Suzuki connection with Juraj Slafkovsky and Cole Caufield. The second line will be Ivan Demidov with likely Michael Hage and, perhaps, Zachary Bolduc. The third line is the shocker, and what a pleasant shocker. Alex Newhook has turned into a quality centre with Josh Anderson and Chris Kreider. What a tremendous development for the sum of the parts of these three players to be so much better than the actual parts. Story continues below advertisement

Call of the Wilde: Montreal Canadiens win their second straight in a shootout shading the Buffalo Sabres - Global News

They were separated by only a goal last spring in Game Seven of their second-round playoff series. This season, though, many believe the Buffalo Sabres aren’t as strong without Alex Tuch and Bowen Byram. However, Buffalo has drafted impressive talent to fill the gaps, including Noah Ostlund and Konsta Helenius, both of whom could become stars. In the immediate future, though, anxiety lingers in the Sabres organization after Rasmus Dahlin’s back injury, as he stayed in Buffalo for Tuesday night’s contest at the Bell Centre. The Montreal Canadiens dominated the Sabres over 60 minutes, outshooting them 34-17, yet the game went to overtime and then a shootout, with the Canadiens winning 4-3. Justice got the last word. Wilde HorsesThe Canadiens had to switch defensive pairings after Mike Matheson went day-to-day. Thankfully, the club has seen Kaiden Guhle return, pairing with Alexandre Carrier. That left Lane Hutson to find Noah Dobson on his right. The final pairing had Adam Engstrom and Arber Xhekaj. Story continues below advertisement

Eagles' Hurts going on IR after reported consultations with doctors - theScore

The Philadelphia Eagles placed quarterback Jalen Hurts on injured reserve, the team announced Saturday. The Eagles made the decision following consultations with doctors and experts that continued into Saturday, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Philadelphia initially did not plan to place Hurts on IR. Hurts was recently diagnosed with a superficial blood clot in his calf. He will remain sidelined for an indefinite period, sources told Schefter and Rapoport. An IR designation means the three-time Pro Bowler is required to miss at least four games before returning to the lineup. Hurts threw for eight touchdowns and 933 passing yards through his first five appearances this season. The Eagles started the season with two straight wins but have lost three in a row. Backup quarterback Tanner McKee will start Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. The Eagles also recently signed quarterback Joe Milton off the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad. Philadelphia is also dealing with injuries to Saquon Barkley and Will Shipley. However, star wideout DeVonta Smith is on track to return after being a full participant in Friday's practice.
