Avalanche Claim Presidents Trophy, Caufield Scores 50, Penguins & Mammoth Clinch

SiriusXM Morning Skate with Scott Laughlin, Gord Stellick & Tyler Madarasz   The Colorado Avalanche lock up the Presidents’ Trophy as the league’s top regular-season team, while Cole Caufield hits the 50-goal mark in a standout season for Montreal and Peter DeBoer gets his first win as Islanders head coach. The Pittsburgh Penguins punch their ticket to the playoffs, and Utah makes franchise history—clinching its first-ever postseason berth in just its second season thanks to a Ducks win over San Jose. We also break down key movement in the wild card race, with the Senators strengthening their position behind a big night from Fabian Zetterlund and the Kings climbing back into the picture with a two-goal performance from Adrian Kempe. The Red Wings stay alive after a massive five-point game from Moritz Seider, while the Sabres continue their surge and hand Columbus a tough loss. Plus, the Golden Knights stumble in their first game under John Tortorella, and John Carlson records his first NHL hat trick as the Ducks snap their skid. It’s a night full of milestones, playoff implications, and momentum shifts as the regular season winds down.
