Zach Hyman and Sam Reinhart both achieved significant milestones in their NHL careers by scoring their 50th goals of the season. Hyman, playing for the Edmonton Oilers, reached this mark for the first time in his career during a game against the Ottawa Senators, with his 50th goal being a power-play goal assisted by McDavid. This goal also marked Hyman's 200th career goal. Despite his achievement, the Oilers faced a loss in that match. On the other hand, Sam Reinhart, representing the Florida Panthers, also hit his 50th goal in a game against the Philadelphia Flyers, contributing to a 4-1 victory that ended the Panthers' four-game losing streak. Reinhart's 50th goal, which was an empty net goal with 1:12 to go, made him the second Panther ever to reach the 50-goal mark, joining Pavel Bure in this exclusive club. Both players' achievements were celebrated as they joined a select group of NHL players to hit the 50-goal milestone in a single season.

ZACH HYMAN FOR THE WIN! 🟠🔵 His 200th career goal is tonight's @Energizer overtime winner! https://t.co/evTLnCz0nE
Zach Hyman….50th goal of the season on Sunday…200th goal of his career tonight. Truly a milestone year for the Oilers’ winger.
THE CAPTAIN’S GOT IT. 🚨 Roman Josi scores the @SUBWAYCanada OT winner in a comeback victory for the Nashville Predators. https://t.co/2qWMXJUJYu
Much debate today over Zach Hyman's worthiness as a 50 goal scorer. For his sake, I get a kick out of him finishing the day with joy, in the form of his 51st. #NHLJets fans need not agree
18-GAME POINT STREAK! 😮💨 The @PredsNHL, everyone. https://t.co/GNg6KtL5L9
Give Roman Josi the Norris trophy you cowards

L’chaim to Zach Hyman! 51 goals. Mazel tov! Hard work pays off!
Post-Game: @GenePrincipe x @ZachHyman. #Oilers https://t.co/TJ4IpdFfn7
Zach Hyman scores his 51st goal of the season and 200th of his NHL career to win it in overtime for the Oilers in Winnipeg. Final score: 4-3 EDM. Perhaps a fitting result after that unjust penalty call on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins with 2:06 left in regulation.
Hand them the Cup https://t.co/nfhJojgWQA
Josi's been unreal of late. https://t.co/CBJHyHVd7n
And this from Josi. What a comeback. https://t.co/gGKaaE4usZ
Nashville wins again. Are Preds going to catch Winnipeg? Have Jets entered the conversation about winding up in a wild card spot? Possible first round opponent for #Canucks?
Nashville. Unreal. https://t.co/EJJ3aYlxR4
VGK now have 86 points with 10 to play. LAK lead by 1 with a game in hand. NSH lead by 4. Still ahead of both STL and MIN by 6 and 9. MIN has one game in hand.
Golden Knights squander a great chance to gain on Nashville, but now four points back of the Preds. Increase wild-card lead to 6 over STL. Now one point back of the Kings with a game in hand for L.A.
Zach Hyman. Suck it, whatsyername.
Hyman with the OT winner for Edmonton. 51 and counting.
#Preds are 16-0-2 in their last 18. Josi with the heroics in OT. https://t.co/nPawxhcVFs
Roman Josi completes the comeback in OT against the Cap Circumcisers. Another barn burner tonight. Josi top 3 in Norris race no doubt at this point. His second half has been sicko mode.
Hyman with the winner! Born on third base king! #LetsGoOilers
JOSI WINS IT IN OT. @PredsNHL | #Preds https://t.co/WSkyzhEug1

Zach Hyman scores on his own rebound and #Oilers win it 4-3 at 1:22 of overtime. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins with the assist.
Nashville wins in OT. https://t.co/PPqAxdfiD5
That was freaking unbelievable. What a win for the #Preds. Down three in the third and they come back to grab two points. What a story and what a run for this team.
Everyone writing their #Preds game recaps tonight https://t.co/skNM5h0VIV
Roman Josi. 5-4 Predators In OT. You’ll take the point but this one stings. Vegas was in control of this game, but third period’s continue to be an issue for the Golden Knights.
How bout those Nashville Predators
Nashville comes back from down 4-1 to beat the Golden Knights 5-4 in overtime.
FINAL OT: #Preds 5, Golden Knights 4 What a game. Insane ending with a review that went Nashville's way. That's Josi's 9th career overtime game-winner.
Moving @PredsNHL to #1 in my power ratings ; only thing that makes sense
THIS TEAM #Preds
the predators may never lose again https://t.co/PQDReD94Sc
I can now confirm the #Preds will never lose again.
So similar to last night in St. Louis. VGK defense just fall asleep as a player attacks their goal. Last night it caused a penalty shot, tonight is cements blowing a 3 goal 3rd period lead.
Preds claw back from down 3 in the 3rd. What a night of hockey. Forsberg 40 tucks on the season. Nyquist gets his 20th on an incredible bounce back season. O’Reilly butt chugging from the fountain of youth with his 25th. Can’t wait for U2 to play at the parade.
just the one point for us tonight 5-4 final in OT
The game is over. The Predators win. 5-4 on a goal by Roman Josi.
THE CAPTAIN IN OT!!!! PREDS WIN!!! https://t.co/IZbVz5YzrS
Overtime will be required. #NHLJets rally from a two-goal deficit to send this game to a fourth period. 3-3 game with #Oilers SOG 40-24 for Edmonton.
George Kittle is having a blast at the Golden Knights and Predators game. 😆 https://t.co/9MXUgnMiCp
Filip Forsberg seeing the streak is about to end, but decides to keep the party going. https://t.co/77I24AYV0R
For the second night in a row, the Golden Knights are heading to overtime. 4-4
VGK can't bust the streak this time. But, they've already earned the point they came here to get. Other one would be a bonus. (Granted, blowing leads in the 3rd really has to stop.)
time to find a way 🤞 https://t.co/irPfCp57qP
The point streak continues. Wow. Now the #Preds go for the extra one. What a third period
Overtime in Nashville. The Predators rally from 4-1 down to extend the franchise-record 18-game point streak. Will the Golden Knights win their third straight, though?
gonna be here for another five minutes or less or more
The @PredsNHL are clawing back‼️ After trailing 4-1 heading into the final frame, Gustav Nyquist ties it up! https://t.co/MzPKyQIi0e
Nashville has now scored 3 or more goals in the 3rd period 11 times this season. #Preds
Underrated: Hinote on the bench. https://t.co/z0AZP70XbO
End of 1: Golden Knights 3, Predators 0 Couldn’t ask for a better start. Barbashev, Howden and Theodore with the goals. Patera with a strong start.

Zach Hyman is a 50-goal scorer. Zach Hyman has made a career scoring goals the hard way, consistently doing what so few are courageous enough to regularly do. Zach Hyman is one of the best people I’ve met in hockey, which is what anyone who’s met Zach Hyman would say about him.
This guy is bang on. I promise everyone I will never forget the reason Zach Hyman scored 50 goals at 31 years old is because he comes from a wealthy family. https://t.co/UHT1e29Gto

Ottawa’s PA: “Edmonton goal. His 50th of the season …” A big roar from the Oilers fans in attendance followed. Great moment for Hyman. #Oilers
Zach Hyman, on his journey to becoming a 50-goal NHL scorer at age 31: "I was never the best player on my team (as a kid) and nobody thought I was going to continue progress. Just continue to hit little milestones and continue to work really hard and just believe in yourself."
And there it is, 50 goals for Zach Hyman. Fittingly, a net side tap-in off a crisp tape-to-tape pass by McDavid, who retrieved the puck from the linesman.
🚨 50 GOALS 🚨 Zach Hyman has scored 50 GOALS for the first time in his career! https://t.co/NlfxtkuHEu

Why Oilers’ Zach Hyman might be the NHL’s most unlikely 50-goal scorer ever By @DNBsports https://t.co/iKd7NWaDoX
Hyman is up to 49 goals. The Oilers have 14 games left. I say Hyman gets to 50. https://t.co/OXMZRgZwdJ
Hyman buries No. 49 on the PP. A 5-1 goal. You'd rather he didn't hit 50 tonight. Tough night to celebrate.
