For the second time this season, the Montreal Canadiens and the Washington Capitals played a classic back-and-forth game. This time, it was Washington that overcame a deficit to win 5-4 in overtime.
Lars Eller scored at 3:34 of overtime as he fired the game-winner past Carey Price.
Price, despite allowing five goals, was outstanding in defeat making several great saves among his 29 on the night including in the dying seconds off of Alex Ovechkin, which will be on the highlight reels for the rest of the season.
