The Canadiens worked hard to beat the Washington Capitals 6-3. They scored three straight goals in the third period, as Christian Dvorak, Juraj Slafkovsky and Alex Newhook delivered. Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki also scored earlier. The Canadiens trail the series 2-1 with Game 4 on Sunday.

Montreal stayed calm and controlled their emotions throughout the game, with the home crowd giving the team a big boost.

Johnny and his brother Matthew died in a biking accident on Aug. 29, near their family home in New Jersey. The driver, Sean Higgins, is charged with aggravated manslaughter and reckless driving, and witnesses said Higgins’ Jeep hit the brothers without braking.

Higgins has pleaded not guilty to all charges. Prosecutors said the damage to the brothers’ bikes and Higgins’ car shows how serious the crash was. Police also found no tire marks at the scene.
