For the second straight night, the Winnipeg Jets had a victory within reach and were oh-so close to pulling it off, but in the end, the result was identical and equally bitter as the club came out on the wrong side of a 2-1 decision in overtime.
Josh Anderson scored the winning goal for the Blue Jackets, who improve to 7-3 on the year. The Jets, meanwhile, fall to 4-3-2 after picking up two of a possible four points on this quick, two-game road trip.
"Both games were played against very quick teams and we're quite a bit further ahead than we were a week ago in terms of playing with that speed," said Head Coach Paul Maurice. "It's going to sting, it's going to hurt, but we're going to get ready for another real fast game (on Sunday) vs. Pitt."
