The Jets tied the game with a 2-on-0 break for Ehlers and Luc-Dubois. Connor trigged the opportunity with an outlet pass, then Dubois drew Binnington's commitment before settling up Ehlers for the tap-in at 10:51 of the second period.

With 26 seconds left in the second period, the Blues took a 2-1 lead with a 3-on-2 rush. Schenn rushed up the left wing and he set up Tarasenko with pass to the right wing.

Scheifele tied the game 2-2 with 13:30 left in regulation time, tapping the puck into the open side of the net during a goal-mouth scramble.

After the Blues turned the puck over in their own zone, the Jets took a 3-2 lead with 12:27 left in regulation time. Richard Pionk set up Connor's snap shot from the left circle.

With Binnington off the ice for an extra attacker, Schenn tied the game 3-3 with a snap shot from the slot with 2:11 left in regulation time.

The Jets controlled the play for most of overtime and prevailed on a 2-on-1 break, with Ehlers feeding Luc-Dubois.
