Cole Caufield scored 47 seconds into overtime and the Montreal Canadiens beat the visiting Washington Capitals 3-2 on Saturday night after losing a two-goal third-period lead.
The Canadiens caught the Capitals on a line change and Caufield took a pass from Nick Suzuki, skated into the zone and beat Darcy Kuemper from the left circle.
Dylan Strome scored a pair of third-period goals for the Capitals, who have lost three of four to open the season. Kuemper made 25 saves. Allen was especially sharp early, making a series of saves on Nicklas Backstrom and Alex Ovechkin late in the first period and later robbing Anthony Mantha. The Canadiens increased the lead to 2-0 at 9:50 of the second period. Monahan got around Capitals defenseman Hardy Haman Aktell and slid the puck into the crease, where Gallagher, crashing the net, knocked it home.
