Benson's Birthday Blitz: Sabres Tie Series

Zach Benson, a 21-year-old Buffalo Sabres player, scored the game-winning goal in a thrilling 3-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens, tying their second-round series at 2-2. Benson, who has been on fire with four goals and four points in the playoffs, sealed the deal with a backhand shot during a power play in the third period. The Sabres made three lineup changes, including rookie goalie Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, who saved 28 of 30 shots. Despite Montreals early lead and a strong penalty kill, the Sabres fought back, tying the game on Tage Thompsons power-play goal and preparing for Game 5 in Buffalo.
