ST. LOUIS -- Christian Backman scored 3:49 into overtime for St. Louis to hand Columbus its first loss in 15 overtime games this season. On the winning goal, Keith Tkachuk broke in on the left side and fired a shot at Columbus goalie Pascal Leclaire. Jay McClement crashed into Leclaire, leaving an opening for Backman to put the rebound into the open net. Scott Young and Mike Glumac also scored, and Patrick Lalime made 14 saves in a relief of injured starter Curtis Sanford for his first win since Dec. 1. Rick Nash and Jason Chimera scored for Columbus, 12-1-2 in overtime.
Lightning 2, Canadiens 1
MONTREAL -- Sean Burke made 31 saves and Montreal-area natives Vincent Lecavalier and Martin St. Louis scored to lead Tampa Bay over the Canadiens. The Lightning snapped a two-game losing streak to move a point ahead of Montreal for seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 72 points. Burke lost his shutout bid when Mike Ribeiro scored a power-play goal with 2:22 remaining, but the Lightning held on for their second win in seven games. Lecavalier scored his 28th goal 11:52 into the second, ending Canadiens goalie Cristobal Huet's shutout streak at 163 minutes, 11 seconds. Making his 14th consecutive start, Huet was coming off consecutive shutouts, including a 1-0 win over the New York Rangers on Saturday night. St. Louis scored a short-handed goal with 17 seconds left in the second to reach 20 goals for the third straight season.

Marty Turco made 26 saves for Dallas. Anson Carter and Daniel Sedin scored for Vancouver. The Canucks have lost four in a row as they try to remain in playoff contention.
