The Winnipeg Jets erased a 4-0 deficit in the final minutes of regulation and added an overtime winner to defeat the Montreal Canadiens 5-4, setting an NHL record for the most goals scored in a comeback from such a deficit. Trailing by four goals with just three minutes remaining in the third period, the Jets’ offense roared to life, with Tyrel Bauer breaking the deadlock at 17:21 of the frame.
