Brock Boeser scored in the final two seconds of overtime to give the Vancouver Canucks a 5-4 road win over the Nashville Predators on Monday.
With a shootout seemingly on the horizon, Boeser managed to convert a backhand shot in front of Nashville's net for his fourth career overtime goal. Boeser also had a goal and an assist in regulation for his second three-point performance of the season.
The Canucks are 4-0 in games decided in overtime or shootouts. Monday's victory allowed the Canucks to finish their three-game road trip with a 2-1-0 record.
Evander Kane scored two goals for Vancouver and Elias Pettersson had two assists. Jake DeBrusk had the Canucks' other goal.
Thatcher Demko stopped 25 of 29 shots to earn his fifth win of the season.
The Predators were 2-on-4 on the power play. The Canucks were 2-for-3 on power-play chances, plus Kane's second goal came on a delayed penalty early in the third period.
Juuse Saros stopped 32 of 37 shots for the Predators, who are 1-3-1 in their last five games.
Filip Forsberg and Michael Bunting each had a goal and an assist and Luke Evangelista had two assists. Erik Haula and Nick Blankenburg scored Nashville's other goals.
Forsberg's team-leading sixth goal put Nashville ahead 6:47 into the game.
The Canucks equalized on the power play at the 14:45 mark, when Kane's one-timer beat a partially-screened Saros. It was Kane's first goal since being acquired in an offseason trade with the Edmonton Oilers.
A power-play marker from DeBrusk put Vancouver ahead 12:57 into the second period. Just 2:08 later, the Canucks extended their lead when Boeser buried a one-timer from the slot.
Haula made it a one-goal game with a power-play tally 75 seconds before the second intermission. Kane scored 3:02 into the third period to restore Vancouver's two-goal lead, but the Predators then launched a comeback.
At 11:52 of the third, Spencer Stastney's long-range shot deflected off Bunting's skate and into the net. Blankenburg then equalized on the power play at the 16:38 mark.
