MONTREAL - Chris Drury had the go-ahead goal midway through the third period, and the New York Rangers scored five unanswered goals in a 5-3 win against the Montreal Canadiens on Sunday.

Drury redirected Nigel Dawes' shot past Montreal goalie Cristobal Huet at the right edge of the crease as New York overcame a 3-0 deficit early in the second period to extend its winning streak to three.
Martin Straka capped the five-goal rally at 18:30 of the third with the Rangers' second goal of the period.

After rookie Sergei Kostitsyn beat Henrik Lundqvist on a penalty shot 5:40 into the second to put the Canadiens up by three, New York scored three times to close out the period. Michal Rozsival and Brandon Dubinsky scored 24 seconds apart to draw the Rangers to 3-2. Scott Gomez scored at 15:40 to tie it at 3.
Andrei Markov and Alex Kovalev each scored power-play goals in the first period for Montreal.
