ST. PAUL, Minn. -- The Columbus Blue Jackets extended their winning streak to 15 games with a 4-2 win against the Minnesota Wild at Xcel Energy Center on Saturday.
Minnesota had won 12 games in a row. The game was the first in any of the four major North American professional sports leagues with each team on a winning streak of at least 12 games, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
"What a crowd they had and it was a great team," Columbus forward Brandon Saad said. "It was real fun to be a part of. Obviously you want to be on the winning end, but it's definitely one to remember."
