SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Nick Suzuki and Ivan Demidov scored in a 1:27 span early in the third period and the Montreal Canadiens rallied to beat the Utah Mammoth 4-3 on Wednesday night for just their third victory in 10 games.
Suzuki scored twice, and Zach Bolduc added a goal and two assists as Montreal went 2 of 3 on power plays. Jakub Dobes made 31 saves.
Two of the Canadiens’ victories in the last 10 have come against Utah.
Barrett Hayton, Kailer Yamamoto and Michael Carcone had second-period goals for the Mammoth. Karel Vejmelka made 13 saves.
Montreal struck first on Bolduc’s power-play goal with 9:22 left in the first. The Canadiens doubled their lead six minutes later on Suzuki’s first goal.
Hayton, Yamamoto, and Carcone scored in 4:09 span of the second period to give Utah the lead.
Hayton’s power play goal at the 9:43 of the second broke the ice for the Mammoth. Yamamoto leveled it two minutes later with his straight-on wrist shot from close range. Carcone then put Utah in front with 6:08 left in the second when he cut around the pipe and threaded the puck through traffic past Dobes.
Montreal got the equalizer from Suzuki on a power play less than a minute later. He poked in his second goal at the 3:20 of the third.
Demidov put Montreal ahead for good with a snap shot at the 4:47 of the third.
Canadiens: At Vegas on Friday night.
Mammoth: At Dallas on Friday night.
