Bump tied it 1-1 at 10:24 when he redirected Emil Andrae<\/a>‘s shot from the blue line off the goal post and under the crossbar. The goal was counted after video review showed the puck completely crossed the goal line.<\/p>\n

The Flyers had chances to take the lead, including a four-minute power play that bridged the second and third periods, but they managed four shots on goal.<\/p>\n

“The penalty kill won the game for us, really, especially that four-minute (advantage),” Blue Jackets coach Rick Bowness said.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia, which entered the game last in the NHL on the power play at 15.5 percent, went 0-for-4 with five shots on goal with the man-advantage.<\/p>\n

“I think it hasn’t been very good,” Flyers defenseman Jamie Drysdale<\/a>\u00a0said. “I think we’ve had a lot of looks and haven’t buried virtually any at this point. And I think when that happens you start to slow it down and look for perfect plays. Just wasn’t clicking and it needed to.”<\/p>\n

After a scoreless third period, neither team had a shot on goal during overtime. Philadelphia had the best scoring chance of the extra period when Trevor Zegras<\/a> sent Matvei Michkov<\/a>\u00a0in alone on Greaves, but a backchecking Adam Fantilli<\/a>\u00a0raced back to stick check Michkov and prevent him from getting a shot off with 26 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n

“He can fly,” Greaves said of Fantilli. “He was working back, and I saw him putting that pressure on so super happy he was able to make that play. Those moments are huge, and that’s kind of what those games come down to.”<\/p>\n

Bowness said it’s part of the commitment to the little details of the game that have driven the Blue Jackets, who are 15-2-4 in 21 games since he replaced Dean Evason as coach Jan. 12.<\/p>\n

“They’re committed to keep that puck out of our net, they’re committed to the team play,” he said. “(Conor) Garland had a tremendous backcheck in the third period that saved a goal. All those details, we preach details a lot, and we preach second efforts a lot, and that’s the perfect example of it.”<\/p>\n

NOTES: Marchenko’s 100th goal came in his 276th NHL game, making him the second-fastest Blue Jackets player to reach that number, behind Rick Nash<\/a>\u00a0(237 games). It also was his 25th goal of the season, after he scored 31 last season. Marchenko is the first Blue Jackets player with consecutive 25-goal seasons since Artemi Panarin<\/a>\u00a0from 2017-19. … The Flyers went 1-for-1 on the penalty kill, ending a streak of six straight games with a power-play goal allowed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bump tied it 1-1 at 10:24 when he redirected Emil Andrae‘s shot from the blue line off the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":537645,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[433],"tags":[49,48,448,82],"class_list":["post-537644","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=537644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537644\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/537645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=537644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=537644"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=537644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
