With six players going, S Graham was hoping for a big night on Tuesday. He didn't get it.
It turns out that Graham mustered just five points - not exactly what most would call a huge evening, but then again it's all relative.
There were a total of just seven points earned on Tuesday, and Graham managed five of them, making him the big mover. He climbed into second place and now sits seven points behind Lowe, the prohibitive favourite to win the 2013 Steinley Cup.
In addition to his five point night, Graham's outlook brightened a little with the Sharks 2-1 win over the Kings. That series is now tied 2-2, with Graham's four Sharks hanging in the balance.
There was also some good news for Lowe, even on this low scoring night. The Boston Bruins pulled out a come-from-behind 2-1 victory over the New York Rangers, making it all but certain that Lowe will advance at least four skaters to the Third Round. The Bruins now lead that series 3-0.
Although he posted no points on Tuesday, MacMillan will look to make up ground on Wednesday when the Ottawa Senators will seek to tie their series against the vaunted Pittsburgh Penguins. MacMillan will ice six players against just two for Lowe tonight and he needs to rally. The lanky one is currently in third, eight points behind the big man.
