NHL RESULTS FOR DECEMBER FIFTH AS PUBLISHED IN THE OFFICIAL RECORDS OF THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE

BUCKHANNON WEST VIRGINIA December 6 2025
Our article presents a plain account of the National Hockey League contests played on the evening of December fifth; every figure is taken from the official reports issued through NHL.COM, which stands as the League’s own record of its games and the sole authority for the final scores that follow.

According to the account released by NHL.COM, the Winnipeg Jets concluded their meeting with the Buffalo Sabres by a final score of 4 to 1, and the League’s report preserves the sequence of goals and the result exactly in that form. In a separate contest recorded in the same publication, the Vegas Golden Knights completed their game with the New Jersey Devils with a final tally of 3 to 0, and the League’s summary notes that score as the recognized conclusion of play.

The League further records that the Dallas Stars finished their contest against the San Jose Sharks with a final score of 4 to 1; the same numbers appear in the team materials issued after the game and therefore stand as the common figure accepted by both club and League. In another game on the schedule, the Utah Mammoth are listed in the official record as having completed their meeting with the Vancouver Canucks by a score of 4 to 1, and the League’s report reproduces that figure without variation.

According to the remaining entry in the League’s record for that date, the Anaheim Ducks concluded their game against the Washington Capitals with a final score of 4 to 3 in a shootout; the National Hockey League preserves both the shootout order and the final number in its published account, and the Ducks and Capitals acknowledge that same conclusion in their own reporting.

The Appalachian Post reproduces these scores exactly as they appear in the National Hockey League’s official materials; no additional numbers are added, no figures are removed, and no interpretation is placed upon them beyond the simple restatement of the results as the League itself has published them.
