COLUMBUS, Ohio – Marco Rossi scored 3:05 into overtime and the Minnesota Wild rallied from three one-goal deficits to beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-3 on Saturday night, giving goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury his 551st career win.
Fleury, who stopped 25 shots, is tied with Hall of Famer Patrick Roy for second all-time among NHL goalies.
Matt Boldy had two power-play goals, Marcus Johansson also scored, and Brock Faber had two assists.
Cole Sillinger had three goals for his second career hat trick and Daniil Tarasov stopped 33 shots for Columbus, which has lost three of four – including two consecutive at home.
Fleury made several brilliant plays before getting the win.
With this team down 3-2, he headed off for the extra skater but responded to a Columbus surge down the ice and made a diving play with less than two minutes left. Justin Danforth ended up shooting wide.
The Wild went back down the ice and Johansson slipped the puck past Tarasov with 1:32 remaining to tie the score.
In overtime, Fleury flashed his glove to rob Yegor Chinakov. Rossi's goal then got the Wild and Fleury the victory.
