Moments after Auston Matthews was turned aside with a chance to complete the hat trick in overtime versus the Montreal Canadiens, Andrew Shaw won a race with Frederik Andersen to a puck floated toward goal, neatly tucked it into the net, and celebrated a crucial extra point while crashing hard into the endboards.
The victory not only extends the Canadiens' lead to five points over the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Atlantic Division chase, but marks the franchise's 14th consecutive win in head-to-head competition as it sweeps another season series.
