Winnipeg Jets defenseman Samberg scored the winning goal in overtime as the Jets rallied from a four-goal deficit to defeat the Montreal Canadiens 5-4 on Wednesday night.
The Jets trailed 4-0 before mounting a comeback that forced extra time. Samberg's goal at 2:15 of the overtime period capped the historic rally and gave Winnipeg two points.
The victory marked the largest comeback in Jets franchise history. Montreal had built a commanding lead through the first two periods before Winnipeg stormed back with four unanswered goals in the third period.
