"I'm going to try my best to stay cheerful despite sitting to write this minutes after the Toronto Blue Jays lost in Game 7 of the World Series in devastating fashion. In truth, I need a distraction. It was either this or polishing off the two giant bags of Doritos (Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese, naturally) that are currently in my cupboard. I will still likely do that at some point."
"The Habs have played in some very tight and exciting games -- nine of their first 12 have been decided by one goal. And there's one particular player who is thriving in those clutch situations: Cole Caufield has three overtime game-winning goals this season. In the process, he has set the record for most overtime goals in Habs history (11, passing Howie Morenz and Max Pacioretty)."
The Montreal Canadiens opened the season 9-3-0 and lead the Atlantic Division after 12 games. Nine of those 12 games were decided by a single goal, producing numerous high-pressure situations. Cole Caufield has been especially prolific in clutch moments, scoring three overtime game-winning goals and setting the Canadiens' overtime-goal record at 11, surpassing Howie Morenz and Max Pacioretty. Caufield has 10 goals, tied for the NHL lead, and has delivered late winners, including a goal with 19.5 seconds left to force OT against Nashville and an overtime winner two seconds into extra time. Caufield also scored the Frozen Frenzy opener and an OT winner versus Seattle.
