WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Trailing 3-1 in the third period of Game 7, with their season on the line, the top-seeded Winnipeg Jets rallied to stun the St. Louis Blues in overtime, 4-3, securing a victory Sunday night in their dramatic first-round series.
The Jets forced the extra session with two goals in the final two minutes of regulation. Vladislav Namestnikov scored his second of the series at the 18:04 mark, and Cole Perfetti's deflection past St. Louis goaltender Jordan Binnington with three seconds remaining sent the crowd into a frenzy, before captain Adam Lowry completed the rally with a goal in overtime.
