SALT LAKE CITY (AP) --- Dmitri Voronkov scored on a power play at 1:01 of
overtime to give the Columbus Blue Jackets a 3-2 victory over the Utah Mammoth
on Sunday night.
Voronkov tipped Zach Werenski's feed past Vitek Vanecek from close range with
Utah's Daniil But off for tripping Adam Fantilli late in regulation.
Mikael Pyyhita and Charlie Coyle scored in regulation for Columbus, with Coyle
tying it at 2 on a power play with 1:29 left in the second period. Jet Greaves
made 25 saves to help prevent Columbus from going winless on a four-game trip.
Jack McBain and Mikhail Sergachev scored for Utah, with Clayton Keller
assisting on both for his eighth multi-assist game of the season. Vanecek made
34 saves. Utah had won three in a row.
Pyyhtia split two defenders and blasted a wrist shot past Vanecek to put
Columbus on the board at 2:47 of the first.
Utah tied it with 3:40 remaining in the period. Keller blasted the puck toward
McBain and it bounced off his shoulder and then deflected off Greaves' shoulder
before landing inside the net. Sergachev scored on a shot from the blue line to
give the Mammoth a 2-1 lead at 1:02 of the second.
