Blue Jackets grab OT win


The Blue Jackets were in Chicago Tuesday in a hard fought match against the Blackhawks. After 60 minutes of hockey, the game was knotted up at 4 a piece. In regulation, Chicago and Columbus each scored 1 in the 1st period, 2 in the 2nd period and 1 in the 3rd period. But in overtime, the Jackets were the only team to score, breaking their 4 game losing streak. The game winning goal came off the stick of Jason Chimera, who beat Blackhawk goalie Nikolai Khabibulin between the legs with 2:31 left in OT to clinch the victory. Chimera was the fifth Jacket to score a goal in the game, and is seen pictured above (#25) with Anders Eriksson (#2) during the post game celebration.
