""Yeah, just kinda drove the net there," McMichael said postgame. "Sandy made a hell of a play to Stromer, and I just saw the goalie kinda fumble it, and I was lucky enough to pull it out in time and put it in.""
""Yeah, it feels good anytime, no matter how it looks," McMichael said. "I think we're willing to take it at this point. Like I touched on, the race in the East is so tight. Every point is huge. Whether it's me or anyone else, we don't care how it looks. We just want the two points, and we're real pleased to have them tonight.""
Connor McMichael scored an overtime goal on the doorstep to give the Washington Capitals a 3-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens. Rasmus Sandin skated the puck hard down the left wing and hit Dylan Strome, whose shot produced a rebound that McMichael pulled around Samuel Montembeault's outstretched pad and punched into the side of the net. Washington erased a 2-0 deficit after Ethen Frank scored twice on deflections in the third period to force overtime. The Capitals overwhelmed Montreal with 10 shots on goal in the extra session and won with 39 seconds remaining in sudden death. The win improved Washington's overtime record to 3-1 while the team remains 0-5 in shootouts.
