COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) --- Sidney Crosby set up Ricard Rakell's tying goal with
13.7 seconds left in regulation, then scored at 2:22 of overtime to give the
Pittsburgh Penguins a 5-4 comeback victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on
Sunday.
The Penguins overcame a three-goal deficit to win their fifth straight game
overall and third in a row in the road. Ville Koivunen, Noel Acciari and Tommy
Novak also scored, and Ben Kindel had two assists. Arturs Silovs made 25 saves.
After being outshot 12--9 in the first period, Pittsburgh outshot Columbus
34--13 over the final two periods and overtime.
Kirill Marchenko and Zach Werenski each had a goal and an assist for Columbus,
and Dmitri Voronkov and Mason Marchment also scored as the Blue Jackets raced
to a 4-1 lead. Denton Mateychuk added two assists, and Jet Greaves stopped 43
shots.
Werenski made it 4--1 47 seconds into the second with a shot through traffic.
Acciari cut it to 4-2 with 3:09 left in the second, and Novak made it a
one-goal game on a power play at 3:28 of the third. Rakell tied it with Silovs
off for an extra attacker.
