It was an OT loss for the Blueshirts, but an encouraging sign for their new No. 1 tender.While the Blue Jackets have some talented players, the Ducks will bring some rising superstar talent to Madison Square Garden, led by Leo Carlsson, Cutter Gauthier and Jackson LaCombe.Colorado Avalanche at Philadelphia Flyers7 p.m. ET (ESPN+) | COL -218, O/U: 6.5Fresh off of their first win of the season -- Saturday over the Ottawa Senators -- can the Flyers make it two in a row?Standing in their way are the Avalanche, led by Nathan MacKinnon, who has 16 points through eight games and has already gotten in two fights. That's the kind of statline Flyers fans can respect!San Jose Sharks at Toronto Maple Leafs7:30 p.m. ET (ESPN+) | TOR -142, O/U: 6.5For the second straight game, the Leafs will be welcoming a Canadian-born No. 1 draft pick to town to square off against their own, 2026 first overall selection Gavin McKenna.Things didn't go so well against Matthew Schaefer and the New York Islanders on Saturday (a 4-1 loss), but perhaps they will on Monday against Macklin Celebrini and his Sharks teammates.Pittsburgh Penguins at Utah Mammoth9 p.m. ET (ESPN+) | UTA -185, O/U: 6.5One of the fun aspects of Sidney Crosby's longevity in the NHL is that he's now playing games against kids who got their start in the sport by participating in his "Little Penguins" program, which began in 2008.Mammoth star -- and Pittsburgh native -- Logan Cooley was part of one of the first groups that went through the program, and the two will square off again on Monday.Reminder: Fans can catch all the action in the NHL streaming hub and on the ESPN App.Jump ahead:Top NHL storiesLast night's scoresNHL stats leadersToday in hockey historyTop stories around the NHLHere's what you need to know:"It's obviously been crazy... but it's been a lot of fun."
