HIGHLIGHTS: Sabres 4, Blue Jackets 3 (OT) | Blue Jackets earn a point for 26th time in 29 games

The Blue Jackets fell 4-3 in overtime on Thursday night in Buffalo.

There were some good chances each way in the early going, as Vladislav Gavrikov missed an open net on a rebound three minutes into the game on the CBJ side. Jeff Skinner also had a good look in front but was denied by CBJ goalie Matiss Kivlenieks as the Sabres had the puck a lot early.

But there was just one goal in the frame, and it was scored by the Blue Jackets with 27.7 seconds to play. It came in transition, as Riley Nash and Gavrikov had a 2-on-1, with the former feeding the latter at the left post. But Buffalo goalie Carter Hutton caught an edge as he moved over and fell down, and Gavrikov alertly dropped the puck to the trailing Gerbe for a slam dunk finish into the open net to make it 1-0.
