Michael Kesselring buried a snap shot from the top of the right circle at 2:46 of overtime as the Utah Hockey Club came from behind to beat the Boston Bruins 2-1 on Saturday night in Salt Lake City.

Kesselring, who played collegiately at Northeastern University in Boston, took a cross-ice feed from Logan Cooley and beat Boston goaltender Jeremy Swayman under the crossbar for the winning tally. It came only four seconds after the Bruins made their fourth penalty kill.

Vladislav Kolyachonok also scored and Connor Ingram made 22 saves for Utah, which has played overtime in four of its past five games (3-1-1).

Ingram is the first goaltender in NHL history with a season-opening five-game point streak with a team playing its inaugural season.

Cole Koepke scored the lone goal for Boston, his career-high third and sixth point in six games. Swayman made 30 stops in the loss. Utah had a 32-23 advantage in shots.

Koepke scored the opening goal at 12:49 of the second period. Brad Marchand picked up the carom off Brandon Carlo’s block in Boston’s own zone and tapped a pass to Koepke, who sped up the right wing and beat Ingram five-hole.

Swayman used his glove to save Cooley’s backhand shot halfway through the third before Kolyachonok walked in and scored his own backhander high on Swayman to even the score with just 5:09 left.

Ingram saved Marchand’s snapper early on the Bruins’ first power play in the opening period. Utah failed to capitalize on multiple turnovers, while Swayman made a key stop on Lawson Crouse’s one-timer from the right circle with 6:40 to play.

Less than a minute after Koepke’s goal, Kesselring hit the left post on a short-handed rush.

Kailer Yamamoto banged in the rebound off Alexander Kerfoot’s shot at the doorstep with more than 13 minutes left in regulation, but a successful Boston challenge deemed the play offside.
