Canadiens star Cole Caufield makes NHL history with more OT heroics to beat Mammoth

Montreal Canadiens star Cole Caufield shattered NHL records with his overtime heroics, scoring the team's 15th career overtime goal just 30 seconds into the extra period. The 25-year-old eclipsed Connor McDavid's 559-game milestone, achieving the feat in a mere 384 games. Caufield's goal proved pivotal as Montreal edged past the Utah Mammoth 5-4 at Bell Centre, marking a significant rebound from their previous wild collapse.

Utah's Logan Cooley had previously secured a hat trick for his team, but Nick Schmaltz's power-play goal and a brace from Adam Engstrom leveled the score before the overtime winner. Nick Suzuki's strong return from an upper-body injury, netting a goal and two assists, and Arber Xhekaj and Kirby Dach's contributions were instrumental in the Canadiens' victory. This win lifted Montreal to a 10-3-3 season record and a six-game winning streak in seven games.
