Sparks sparkled last night leading the Leafs to a 4-1 romp of the [Blues](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/st-louis-blues?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). Nazem Kadri scored twice!

### Last Night's Games

There is renewed controversy surrounding the coaches challenge and video review last night. The Jets scored in OT vs. the Capitals and thought the game was over, but Barry Trotz demanded a review to see if the play had been offside about 30 seconds before the goal. **The review took nine minutes.** It was then called in favour of the Jets as the review was "inconclusive".

  
There were a lot of injuries last night, including one in the Leafs game.

Bishop was poked in the face by a stick through his mask. He left the game and did not return.
