JETS 3, BLACKHAWKS 2, OT
CHICAGO (AP) — Kyle Connor scored 25 seconds into overtime, and Winnipeg beat Chicago.
Nikolaj Ehlers scored twice in regulation, ending a 10-game goal-scoring drought with his 17th and 18th goals, as Winnipeg won for the fifth time in six games to tighten the standings atop the Central Division. The Jets improved to 35-15-5 to move into a tie with second-place Colorado and one point behind first-place Dallas. Connor Hellebuyck made 33 saves.
Tyler Johnson and Colin Blackwell scored for Chicago, which has lost 11 of 12 (1-9-2) and last in the NHL with 34 points. Seth Jones had two assists and Petr Mrazek finished with 28 saves.
In the extra period, Connor got his 21st goal of the season from the right circle when his shot deflected off the skate of Chicago’s Nick Foligno and past Mrazek.
