Caufield scores his second goal in OT to lift Canadiens over Sabres 4-3
MONTREAL (AP) --- Cole Caufield scored his second goal of the game 54 seconds
into overtime to lift the Montreal Canadiens over the Buffalo Sabres 4-3 on
Saturday night.
Caufield had a breakaway after Josh Norris missed his shot on a 3-on-1 rush. He
ripped a shot into the top-left corner, extending his franchise record with his
14th regular-season overtime goal.
Zachary Bolduc and Alexandre Texier also scored while Montreal built a two-goal
lead before Buffalo stormed back. Juraj Slafkovsky and Alexandre Carrier added
two assists each.
Jacob Fowler stopped 23 shots in his fourth start in five games.
Jack Quinn, Tage Thompson and Norris scored for Buffalo, which fell 4-3 in a
shootout to the Canadiens on Tuesday. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen made 30 saves.
Thompson tied it at 3 with 9:48 remaining in the third period after Josh Doan
found him alone at the side of the net to eventually force overtime.
The Sabres went on the power play with 2:17 remaining in regulation after
Slafkovsky tripped Jiri Kulich but couldn't capitalize despite spending the
majority of the time in Montreal's zone.
