NHL: Los Angeles 3, Philadelphia 2 (OT)

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 15 (UPI) -- Jack Johnson's power-play goal on a redirection of a Mike Richards pass Saturday gave Los Angeles a 3-2 overtime win over Philadelphia.

Richards, returning to the city where he had played his entire career before an off-season trade sent him to LA, found Johnson in the high slot and Johnson put the puck past Flyers goalie Ilya Bryzgalov 1:39 into the extra session to give Philadelphia its first loss of the season.
