<p>Jesper Fast's late 3rd period goal brought Carolina even and allowed Jesperi Kotkaniemi's shootout winner to give the Canes a 4-3 win over the Canadiens. The win gives Carolina a 4-point lead over New Jersey -- with a game in hand -- after the Devils lost at home to Toronto. Jaccob Slavin and Brady Skjei each scored for Carolina, who spent the majority of the first two periods making a mess with the puck. Turnovers led to all three Montreal goals as the Habs took a 3-2 lead into the 3rd. But, Jesper Fast forced a turnover that led to his rebound goal and, ultimately, to the Canes' 20th road win of the season. Carolina is off until taking on the Flyers at PNC Arena on Thursday</p>
