The Montreal Canadiens were ostensibly down and out quite early in their game against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday night. Giving up two goals in the first three minutes, they battled back into a game that ended up going back and forth, and requiring some last-second heroics for the Habs to get to overtime and ultimately, a win.
If not for Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki, we’re likely talking about a regulation loss.
Caufield got himself involved early, scoring a power play goal in the first period to tie the game at two, helping to erase that aforementioned deficit.
