The Blue Jackets were able to extend their points streak to 5 games last night, as they defeated the Montreal Canadiens in a shootout.
Last night's game was a tale of four completely different teams. I know, that's confusing. But each team showed their best and worst, so, it kinda makes sense. The Blue Jackets looked fantastic in the first period and for much of the second, controlling the puck and pouring it onto the Canadiens.
But the script completely flipped over in the third period and overtime, with Montreal dominating possession. After entering the third with a 17-16 shots advantage, they out-shot the Jackets 9-6 in the period; then 6-0 in overtime.
