WINNIPEG — Brady Tkachuk scored 2:11 into overtime to lift the Ottawa Senators to a 3-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday.
Tim Stutzle, with his third assist of the game, moved the puck to Tkachuk, who fired one past Connor Hellebuyck.
Nick Cousins and Jake Sanderson also scored for the Senators (15-13-1), and Linus Ullmark stopped 23 shots.
Defensemen Neal Pionk and Logan Stanley scored for the Jets (15-15-2).
Hellebuyck made 28 saves in his second game back from injury for Winnipeg, which is 1-3-1 in its last five games.
There were no goals in the first period: seven shots on goal, two power plays for Ottawa and one for Winnipeg.
The teams traded power plays early in the second, but both scored at even strength.
Cousins took a pass over the net from Kurtis McDermid and then fired a wrist shot that sailed over Hellebuyck's right pad at 10:47.
Pionk scored from the spot right at Ullmark just under five minutes later to level the score 1–1.
Stanley made it 2-1 with his sixth goal of the season, surpassing the total number of goals scored by the big defenseman in his first five NHL seasons.
Sanderson's shot with 1:54 left in the third found Winnipeg center Mark Scheifele in the net to make it 2-2.
TAKE AWAY
Jets: Kyle Connor assisted Pionk's second goal of the season, extending his point streak to nine games with four goals and nine assists. Gabriel Vilardi's assistant goalkeeper for Stanley extended his points streak to seven games (five goals, four assists).
Senators: Ottawa struggled with male advantage. The Senators spent all of two minutes of the second power play in the offensive zone, but only got two shots on Hellebuyck. Another ball went wide of the goal and a one-time try followed. They entered the game shooting 26.3% on the power play (26 of 99) but went 0 for 3 against the Jets. Stutzle extended his point streak to four games with four goals and five assists.
KEY POINT
Tkachuk's one-goal game-winner was his second of the season.
KEY STATISTICS
Winnipeg converted all three penalties, ending a precarious streak of allowing at least one power-play goal in eight straight games.
