VGK2 – CHI 1 (SO)

Marc-Andre Fleury records his 446th NHL win to move him into seventh place all-time ahead of Hockey Hall of Famer Terry Sawchuk. Fleury made 31 saves and stopped 2-of-3 shooters in the extra session for the victory, his fifth in six games. As of today, Fleury is fifth all-time in wins with 466, 18 behind Ed Belfour in fourth and a whopping 225 wins behind Martin Brodeur (691) for first place.

Notes:

Nick Holden forced the OT when he knotted things up with just 1:33 remaining in the third period.

Mark Stone assisted on the goal to extend his point streak to seven games (4-4-8).

Ironically, the Golden Knights topped now-teammate Robin Lehner (33 saves) in that contest for the win.

Kriby Dach scored his first NHL goal for Chicago.
