Monday's games

Thrashers 3, Maple Leafs 2, OT
TORONTO -- Marc Savard and Jeff Cowan scored 24 seconds apart in the third period, and Savard scored again with 15 seconds remaining in overtime. The win came in front of the family of Dan Snyder, the Thrashers player who died Oct. 5 from injuries suffered in a car crash six days earlier. Snyder was from Elmira, Ontario, about 70 miles away. Savard spoiled Ed Belfour's shutout bid with 8:03 remaining by redirecting Vyacheslav Kozlov's pass from behind the net. Moments later, Cowan skated from behind the net and scored when his backhand shot went off Belfour's pads and in. Savard flicked a wrist shot past Belfour for the win. Tom Fitzgerald scored and had an assist for the Maple Leafs.
Flyers 5, Canadiens 0
PHILADELPHIA -- John LeClair had a goal and an assist in his first game of the season, and Robert Esche earned his sixth career shutout, leading Philadelphia over Montreal. Simon Gagne, Tony Amonte, Michel Handzus, and Marcus Ragnarsson also scored goals for the Flyers, who ended a three-game winless streak (0-2-1). LeClair missed the first seven games of the season after breaking a bone in his left foot in training camp. The Canadiens, who had won five of six, lost their second straight. Esche was rarely tested and finished with 20 saves in his first win of the season.
