Blue Jackets Overcome Lightning in Wild 7-6 OT Thriller

Zach Werenski's career-high five-point performance secures Columbus a comeback victory after trailing by three goals.

Zach Werenski scored the overtime winner and recorded five points, including a goal in a chaotic six-goal second period, to lead the Columbus Blue Jackets to victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Tampa Bay built an early 3-0 lead, with Nikita Kucherov reaching his 900th career point, but defensive lapses and a poor second period cost them the game.
Columbus forward Kent Johnson returned from a 14-game injury absence to contribute two goals, including a key shorthanded tally in the third period.
The Lightning struggled defensively, allowing 41 shot attempts in the second period alone, and goaltender Jonas Johansson conceded seven goals on 43 shots.
The loss snapped Tampa Bay's three-game winning streak, while the Blue Jackets have now won three of their last four games.
