Cole Caufield Makes Canadiens History With Stunning OT Winner vs Kraken
Cole Caufield gives the Montreal Canadiens the win with a beauty in overtime against the Seattle Kraken.
Once again!!!
I feel like I'm repeating myself! The Montreal Canadiens once again found a way to thrill their fans with a spectacular finish.
While the team seemed in perfect control with a 3-0 lead, the Seattle Kraken turned everything around within minutes before Cole Caufield, true to his reputation, ended the suspense in overtime.
Just like in the first matchup between the two teams, number 13 gave the Canadiens a 4-3 victory.
The sequence is breathtaking. His talent is absolutely crazy!
Here's another angle, in slow motion:
Cole Caufield enters Canadiens history with a new overtime record
With this goal, Caufield earns his eleventh career overtime game-winner - a new record in Montreal Canadiens history.
He surpasses two Habs greats, Howie Morenz and Max Pacioretty, with whom he had shared the mark until just a few weeks ago.
Here's what Dave Lévesque had to say in the Journal de Montreal:
"He's become the man for big moments for the Canadiens. Three of his nine goals have been game-winners. And most importantly, this was his eleventh career overtime game-winning goal."
Personally, I believe this kind of win builds a team's character. Let's recall, Caufield could be reaching another historical milestone with the CH not seen for 40 years!
I also have to say that seeing Caufield score yet another game-winner really convinces me he's one of the best goal scorers in the NHL right now.
