A Saturday night ECHL contest ended with a lot more excitement than you might expect from a game between the Toledo Walleye and Kansas City Mavericks.

The two sides came together for a solid melee just past the halfway point of the third period after Mavericks forward Garrett Klotz unleashed a flurry of cross-checks on Walleye winger Al Jenks.

The ECHL doesn't get a ton of attention, but if goalies and full lines of players continue to go at it with this intensity, you might just want to start tuning in - at least when the Walleyes and Mavericks face off.

Mitch Marner had himself a night.

The Toronto Maple Leafs sophomore notched a career-high five points versus the rival Ottawa Senators on Saturday, as he collected two goals and a trio of assists in the Maple Leafs' 6-3 win.

The total brings Marner to 42 points on the season, and closer to the type of production he saw as a freshman:

After a slow start to the season, Marner has had the hot stick in recent weeks, as he's tallied 10 points in his past eight outings.

The Maple Leafs forward nearly set another career first Saturday, as his first assist came on a deflected goal by James van Riemsdyk, negating Marner of what would have been his first career hat-trick.

Marner is the first Maple Leafs skater to pick up five points in a game since former Toronto blue-liner Tomas Kaberle registered a goal and four assists Oct. 26, 2009 against the Anaheim Ducks.

Boston Bruins netminder Tuukka Rask's unbelievable streak of 21 consecutive decisions with at least one point ended with Boston's 4-2 loss against the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday night.

Rask has been a major reason for the Bruins' rapid ascent up the Eastern Conference standings over the past two months, as Boston currently finds itself breathing down the necks of the Tampa Bay Lightning for the Atlantic Division lead.

Between Nov. 29 and Feb. 6, the Finnish veteran posted a 19-0-2 record to go along with an absolutely sensational save percentage of .941 and two shutouts.

The Bruins won't have to wait very long for a chance to spark another streak for Rask, as they head to New Jersey on Sunday to take on the sputtering Devils.

Los Angeles Kings forward Dustin Brown was assessed a five-minute major for kneeing and a game misconduct for this hit on Tampa Bay Lightning rookie defenseman Mikhail Sergachev on Saturday.

Brown was fined $10,000 on Jan. 19 for cross-checking Pittsburgh's Justin Schultz, and the NHL's Department of Player Safety will likely take a long look at this play as well.

Sergachev was helped off the ice and into the locker room following the hit, but was able to return.

It's hard to put into words just how great a save it was, but that didn't stop many on social media from trying.

The save in question is this behind-the-back glove stop from Tampa Bay's Andrei Vasilevskiy off the stick of Los Angeles' Anze Kopitar.

Kings Twitter summed it up nicely.

Truly one to remember.

Things are going from bad to hellishly worse for the Buffalo Sabres, as superstar forward Jack Eichel left Saturday's game in the first period and will not return.

Eichel got tangled up with Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk behind Boston's net and went down awkwardly.

Eichel left at the 6:52 mark and wasn't seen on the Sabres' bench for the start of the second. The team later announced he wouldn't return.

Buffalo is out of playoff contention, but an injury of any severity to Eichel would be the proverbial nail in its coffin, as he currently leads the team in goals and assists with 22 and 31, respectively.

Rick Nash is open to heading to the Great White North.

With the New York Rangers prepared to enter a rebuild, the team has approached the veteran winger about a move elsewhere. Nash obliged, despite carrying a modified no-trade clause, offering a 12-team list of where he'd accept a trade to.

While those dozen clubs are unknown, Nash indicated Saturday that his list includes teams in Canadian markets. He also noted there's the possibility he could expand the list if it helps facilitate a deal and if he is convinced by the interested team.

"I included the teams that I think have the best chance of winning the Stanley Cup and are also places I think would be good for my family," Nash told Larry Brooks of the New York Post. "And, yes, that does include teams in Canada. I'm not excluding that as a possibility."

As it stands, only two Canadian teams are in a playoff position - the Toronto Maple Leafs and Winnipeg Jets. The Calgary Flames sit just outside the Western Conference wild card due to a tie-breaker.

The team which could acquire Nash would be banking on the former "Rocket" Richard Trophy winner bringing some added scoring touch in the playoffs. In 55 games this season, Nash has tallied 17 goals and 10 assists.

The 33-year-old carries a $7.8-million cap hit and can become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Meanwhile, Brooks indicated the Boston Bruins, Dallas Stars, Nashville Predators, San Jose Sharks, and St. Louis Blues are also among the teams interested in Nash.

A second number now hangs from the rafters of Amalie Arena.

The Tampa Bay Lightning retired Vincent Lecavalier's No. 4 prior to Saturday's game against Los Angeles, putting a banner alongside Martin St. Louis' No. 26.

Congratulatory remarks were offered by franchise founder and former president and general manager Phil Esposito, former general manager Jay Feaster, and current owner Jeff Vinik, while Steven Stamkos and Victor Hedman offered Lecavalier a custom-designed watch, hand-made by Audemars Piguet.

Lecavalier was selected first overall by Tampa Bay in 1998, served as team captain for the 2000-2001 season and between 2008 and 2013, helped the team win a Stanley Cup in 2004, and still holds franchise records for games played, goals scored, and shots.

He spent his first 14 NHL seasons with the Lightning before being bought out following the 2012-13 season - a decision Vinik addressed during the pregame ceremony.

Lecavalier ended his speech - in which he thanked the team, its fans, and his family - by exhorting the current roster to make good on being legitimate Cup contenders once again.

Lecavalier retired in 2016 following stints with Philadelphia and Los Angeles, and remains a vital part of the community. He pledged $3 million to the All Children's Hospital in 2007 - a donation that helped fund the Pediatric Cancer and Blood Disorders Center that was later named in his honor.
