Hockey’s opening month wraps up this week (head here for the full October recap) and, as usual, we’re taking a look back at the week that was with a collection of the NHL’s best and most interesting plays from the past seven days.

This is something we’ll be doing each week this season (every Friday) so if you think I missed any good ones or want to send a tip my way throughout the year, feel free to hit me on Twitter (@PeteBlackburn) and let me know.
