That means that the Metropolitan Division still has four teams all fighting for one spot, the 3rd seed in the Metropolitan. The Flyers currently hold that position, but the Blue Jackets, Islanders, and Capitals are all on their tails.
All four teams were in play on Saturday.

Arslanbek Makhmudov recently caught the attention of the boxing world by wrestling a bear in Dagestan. And from the first round on Saturday night, he seemed to realise that wrestling Tyson Fury was a better option than boxing him. Yet on this occasion, that’s no comment on the wizardry that Fury can produce in the ring, but rather on Makhmudov’s flaws. The story of this fight was that, luckily for Fury, those flaws eclipsed the Briton’s own, increasingly apparent faults.

Paris-Roubaix is a bike race which rewards guile and experience, one for the battle-hardened pro rather than the wide-eyed youngster. Zoe Backstedt in some ways is both. At 21 she is among the peloton’s younger contingent – but she has an additional weapon in her arsenal: a family history of Paris-Roubaix going back more than 20 years.
Her father, Magnus Backstedt, took the biggest win of his career in the famous Roubaix velodrome in 2004; Zoe and older sister and fellow cyclist Elynor grew up re-watching, analysing and celebrating his race.

Marcus Rashford: Man United loanee produces stunning moment in derby
Marcus Rashford came off the bench to score in an impressive cameo as FC Barcelona close in on the title.
More regular gametime
The Manchester United loanee had seen his game time decrease since Christmas, but an injury to Raphinha over the international break has given him more chances to shine.
He impressed last weekend, starting and scoring a sublime goal against Atletico Madrid.
Nonetheless, he was very wasteful in their Champions League tie as they lost 0-2 in the first leg.

Jiri Prochazka is devastated that he let the light heavyweight title slip through his fingers at UFC 327.
Prochazka (32-6-1 MMA, 6-3 UFC) was seemingly moments away from reclaiming gold on Saturday when Carlos Ulberg (14-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) suffered a knee injury early in the headliner at Kaseya Center in Miami. Instead of pouring on the pressure, Prochazka left himself open for a Hail Mary shot from Ulberg, who landed it and scored a spectacular knockout on one leg.

Real Madrid are preparing for the return of former German midfielder next season – report
Among all the veterans who have left Real Madrid in recent years, the departure of Toni Kroos has perhaps hurt the most.
The German’s calm and composed presence in the middle of the park is something Real Madrid have failed to duplicate through younger players such as Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni.
While Kroos is not coming back from retirement anytime soon, it appears Real Madrid are ready to bring him back to the Bernabeu dugout.
