Canadiens edge Blue Jackets
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 02 - 03 - 2017

Alex Galchenyuk scored in overtime for the second straight night and Carey Price made 26 saves as the Montreal Canadiens beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 1-0 Tuesday to extend their winning streak to three games.
Price got his third shutout this season. He started after Al Montoya backed the Canadiens in a 4-3 come-from-behind victory at New Jersey Monday.
Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 29 shots for the Blue Jackets, who had won two straight.
Montreal's Max Pacioretty thought he had scored 1:11 into overtime after a beautiful pass by Andrei Markov. The puck crossed the line on Pacioretty's rebound, but the play was whistled dead first, and a lengthy video review did not overturn the call.
With Columbus' Seth Jones in the box for holding, Galchenyuk scored with a slap shot from the point that soared into the roof of the net at 3:53 of the extra period.
Predators 5, Sabres 4 (OT): Filip Forsberg scored his second goal of the night 2:45 into overtime, leading the Nashville Predators to a 5-4 win over the Buffalo Sabres.
Forsberg now has 10 goals in the past five games following his OT game-winner. Mike Fisher, Colin Wilson and Ryan Johansen also scored for the Predators. Pekka Rinne made 28 saves.
Brian Gionta, Kyle Okposo, Evander Kane and Jake McCabe scored for the Sabres.
Capitals 4, Rangers 1: Marcus Johansson scored twice as Washington emerged with a victory over New York.
Brett Connolly and Nicklas Backstrom also scored for the Capitals. Brady Skjei scored for the Rangers, who received 34 saves from Henrik Lundqvist.
Flyers 4, Avalanche 0: Wayne Simmonds scored a pair of goals for the fourth time this season and Steve Mason turned aside 32 shots for his second shutout of the season to lead over Colorado at the Wells Fargo Center.
Jakub Voracek and Jordan Weal also scored for the Flyers. Jeremy Smith surrendered four goals on 26 shots.
Bruins 4, Coyotes 1: Boston scored three goals in the second period to down Arizona.
Colin Miller, Brad Marchand, Riley Nash and David Backes all scored for the Bruins. Patrice Bergeron had two assists and has 21 points in the last 14 games, while Marchand has 23 over that same span.
Peter Holland scored for the Coyotes.
Stars 3, Penguins 2: Antoine Roussel scored the winning goal with 9:24 remaining, helping Dallas overcome a 2-0 deficit after two periods for a win over Pittsburgh at American Airlines Center.
Brett Ritchie and Jason Spezza also scored for the Stars, who got two assists from John Klingberg. Antti Niemi made 18 saves. Evgeni Malkin and Jake Guentzel scored for the Penguins, who go 28 saves from Matt Murray.
Oilers 2, Blues 1: Mark Letestu scored and Connor McDavid recorded two assists as Edmonton beat St. Louis.
Milan Lucic also scored for the Oilers, who snapped a two-game losing streak. Cam Talbot made 25 saves. Paul Stastny scored for the Blues, who lost their fourth straight game. Jake Allen made 23 saves.
Wild 6, Jets 5: Jason Zucker scored the winning goal with just over two minutes to play as Minnesota skated away with a win over Winnipeg.
Panthers 3, Hurricanes 2 (SO): Aleksander Barkov and Jonathan Huberdeau scored in a shootout as Florida snapped a four-game home losing streak, defeating Carolina at the BB&T Center.
Flames 2, Kings 1 (OT): TJ Brodie scored at 1:47 of overtime to lead Calgary over Los Angeles at the Scotiabank Saddledome.
Red Wings 3, Canucks 3 (OT): Justin Abdelkader's power-play goal at 3:31 of overtime gave Detroit a victory over Vancouver.
