Chicago Blackhawks forward Steve Thomas has another tie to break.
Thomas entered this season all alone in the record book when it comes to scoring goals in overtime, but now he has lots of company.
Thomas, in his 19th NHL season, won 11 regular-season games by scoring in the 5-minute extra session and led five players who had 10 overtime game-winners when this season started.
Not only does Thomas have to share the mark now, he is tied with three others just five weeks into the season.
Detroit's Sergei Fedorov and Washington's Jaromir Jagr got to 11 on the same night, Nov. 7. They were joined by Mats Sundin on Tuesday when his 11th overtime game-winner gave Toronto a 4-3 victory over Los Angeles.
They all can keep looking over their shoulders, as lurking with 10 goals is Pittsburgh's Mario Lemieux and Theo Fleury, Thomas' teammate in Chicago. Fleury hasn't had a chance yet to add to his total this season as he is serving an indefinite suspension for violating his substance abuse aftercare program.
Regular-season overtime was reintroduced to the league in the 1983-84 season, one season before Thomas broke in, after a 41-year absence. Overtime was removed on Nov. 21, 1942, because of wartime restrictions on train scheduling.
Teaching the game
The Philadelphia Flyers know that women make up a large portion of their fan base, so they wanted to give them the chance to become more familiar with the game of hockey.
School was in session for the first time this week as the Flyers hosted "Hockey 101" for women only at the team's suburban practice rink.
It was an instant hit as 300 women showed up to ask questions of players, coaches and team broadcasters so they could better understand the sport many already loved.
Justin Williams represented Flyers players, Bruno St. Jacques, a member of the team's AHL affiliate, the Phantoms, was there along with Flyers assistant coaches Craig Hartsburg and Wayne Fleming, commentator Steve Coates, and CCM hockey representative Ed Rainey who answered equipment-related questions.
"I was talking with my wife, and I was thinking that the greatest hockey fans in our game are women," Hartsburg said. "I've always found that women hockey fans are some of the most intense in the world."
Coates gave a brief history of hockey and explained the equipment with Rainey. Williams and St. Jacques talked about the hockey player's life, and Hartsburg and Fleming discussed rules and strategy.
"I walk in and there are 300 women sitting here wanting to know more about hockey, and that's very promising," Williams said. "It seems like everybody knew the answer to every question."
