After trailing heading into the third period at 3-1 to the Buffalo Sabres, Seth Jones would help send the game into overtime to give the Blackhawks a second chance. From there, he would record the game winning goal to record the Blackhawks fourth win out of their last five games.
Head coach Luke Richardson stated the team created a heavy push heading into the third period to start creating those chances.
"We're chasing a little bit in the second, but I thought we really pushed in the third," Richardson said. "I thought [Philipp] Kurashev kind of led the way for us tonight and [Jonathan Toew's] line, they really got us on the board early. But, even in the second period, when we were reeling a little bit, I thought they were consistently turning the tide back for us and that led us to have an opportunity to the third."
