Marchenko extended his point streak to 12 games (three goals, 12 assists).<\/p>\n
Zach Werenski and Dmitri Voronkov each had a goal and an assist for the Blue Jackets (10-7-2), who are 3-0-2 in their past five games. Jet Greaves made 29 saves in his fifth straight start.<\/p>\n
Lane Hutson had a goal and an assist, and Jakub Dobes made 20 saves for the Canadiens (10-6-3), who have lost four in a row and are 1-3-3 in their past seven games.<\/p>\n
Josh Anderson began Montreal’s comeback by cutting the score to 3-2 at 8:28 of the third period. Hutson’s point shot was blocked in front, but Anderson gloved down the rebound and slid a backhand into the open net.<\/p>\n
Hutson then tied it 3-3 at 18:41 with Dobes pulled for the extra attacker. He scored with a shot from the high slot that went through a screen by Juraj Slafkovsky and under the glove of Greaves.<\/p>\n
Werenski gave Columbus a 1-0 lead at 6:58 of the first period. He got the puck at the left point, skated to the high slot, and used a screen by Charlie Coyle to beat Dobes under his glove.<\/p>\n
Oliver Kapanen tied it 1-1 at 4:47 of the second period. Mike Matheson skated down the left wing, and just as he was about to go around the net he passed back out front to Kapanen, who buried a one-timer from the hash marks.<\/p>\n
Adam Fantilli put the Blue Jackets back in front 2-1 at 9:47. After Voronkov forced a turnover by Noah Dobson behind the net, Marchenko got the loose puck and sent a centering feed toward the low slot. The pass hit off the stick of Canadiens forward Joshua Roy, but he couldn’t control it, allowing Fantilli to beat Dobes glove side.<\/p>\n
Voronkov pushed it to 3-1 at 13:32 with a power-play goal. He stationed himself at the left post and tapped in Marchenko\u2019s backdoor pass from the right circle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Marchenko extended his point streak to 12 games (three goals, 12 assists).
