SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) \u2014 Defenseman Gustav Forsling scored at 3:41 of overtime to give the Florida Panthers a 3-2 victory over Washington on Saturday night in Capitals star Alex Ovechkin\u2019s 1,400th NHL game.<\/p>\n
Aleksander Barkov tied it for Florida on a power play with 3:30 to go in regulation, beating goalie Charlie Lindgren with a deflection of Carter Verhaeghe\u2019s long-range snap shot. Forsling ended it with a one-timer from the right side on a 3-on-1 break.<\/p>\n
\u201cSometimes, you just got to surprise them,\u201d Forsling said of his decision to jump in on the 3-on-1 rush. \u201cI figured I could go at them and surprise them a little bit. It could\u2019ve been a breakaway, but it worked out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ovechkin became the 41st skater in NHL history to reach the milestone. He\u2019s the 10th do it with one team and is the second active player to do it, joining Dallas defenseman Ryan Suter.<\/p>\n
