Flyers Fall To Lightning In NHL's First 3v3 Overtime

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Jason Garrison scored his second goal of the game in overtime, and the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Philadelphian Flyers 3-2 on Thursday night.

Garrison's game-winner came on a breakaway with 2:43 left in the extra session, which featured end-to-end action in the NHL's first 3-on-3 OT of the regular season.

The NHL moved overtime from 4-on-4 to the new setup this season.

Tampa Bay's Ben Bishop faced his second penalty shot 1:27 into overtime and made a pad save on Scott Laughton.

It was the first NHL game for Philadelphia coach Dave Hakstol, who spent the past 11 seasons coaching at the University of North Dakota. Seven of his teams at North Dakota reached the NCAA Frozen Four.

Matt Read and Brayden Schenn scored for the Flyers. R.J. Umberger had two assists.

The Lightning also got a goal from Ryan Callahan.
