Friday's NHL card delivered a full bag of tricks. In Nashville, Steven Stamkos scored in regulation and again in the shootout against his former team as the Predators edged the Lightning 5-4.

In Boston, Morgan Geekie tied the game in the final minute of regulation before Elias Lindholm won it in overtime, lifting the Bruins past the Blackhawks 5-4. St. Louis pulled off a comeback of its own: down 4-2, the Blues rallied to beat the Red Wings 5-4 on Aleksanteri Kaskimaki's late third-period winner.

Edmonton's night was far quieter — by design. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored twice and Tristan Jarry stopped all 18 shots he faced as the Oilers shut out the Islanders 4-0. Three one-goal thrillers and a clean sheet: a fitting Halloween spread around the league.
