NHL roundup

Monday’s games

Wild 5, Kings 4

ST. PAUL, MINN.

Mikael Granlund beat two defenders to find open ice and wrap the winning shot around goalie Jonathan Quick just 12 seconds into overtime, giving Minnesota a victory over Los Angeles. Granlund’s 20th goal of the season gave goalie Devan Dubnyk his NHL-leading 33rd win and the Wild their 15th comeback victory. They answered all four goals in regulation by the Kings, from Nick Shore, Tanner Pearson, Jake Muzzin and Marian Gaborik. Jason Zucker’s spinning wrist shot midway through the third period tied the game for the Wild, who also had goals from Nino Niederreiter, Jordan Schroeder and Ryan White in his debut. White and Martin Hanzal were acquired in a trade with Arizona the night before.

Canadiens 4, Devils 3, OT

NEWARK, N.J.

Alex Galchenyuk scored on a power play at 2:54 of overtime and Montreal rallied from a two-goal third-period deficit. Max Pacioretty scored twice in the final 11:23 of regulation to tie the game and Alexander Radulov added a goal for the Canadiens, who won consecutive games for the first time since early January. Al Montoya had 34 saves for Montreal. Kyle Palmieri, John Moore and Travis Zajac scored for the Devils, who have lost four straight games (0-2-2). Cory Schneider made 29 saves.

Lightning 5, Senators 1

TAMPA, FLA.

Nikita Kucherov scored three power-play goals in the second period and Tampa Bay kept its fading playoff hopes alive with a victory over Ottawa. Kucherov had the second hat trick of his career and added an assist in the third period. Jonathan Drouin assisted all three of his goals and Victor Hedman assisted on two.

Capitals acquire Shattenkirk

WASHINGTON

The Washington Capitals have acquired defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk in a trade with the St. Louis Blues. Washington sent a 2017 first-round pick, conditional 2018 second-round pick, forward Zach Sanford and minor leaguer Brad Malone to St. Louis in the deal that also sent former Capitals goaltending prospect Pheonix Copley to the Blues.
