Johnson lifts Blue Jackets over Blackhawks in SO

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Jack Johnson scored the winner in the ninth round of a shootout and Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 39 shots in regulation and eight in the tiebreaker to give the Columbus Blue Jackets a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night. With the score tied at 1 heading into the third, the Blue Jackets scored on a holdover power play. Connauton's hard, rising shot from the left circle beat Crawford for a 2-1 lead. Both goalies made huge stops in overtime, Bobrovsky stopping Brandon Saad on a 2-on-1 and Crawford gloving a long slap shot by Cam Atkinson. The Blackhawks swarmed in the opening period, holding the Blue Jackets without a shot for 14 minutes in the middle and outshooting them 15-3. Sharp evened it up at the 7:27 mark, scoring on a 2-on-1 when his wrister from the left dot beat Bobrovsky high on his glove side.
