COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Adam Foote scored on a short-handed rush 35 seconds into overtime to give the Columbus Blue Jackets a 3-2 victory over Nashville on Wednesday night that snapped the Predators' season-opening, eight-game winning streak.
The quickest overtime goal in the NHL this season left Nashville two wins short of tying Toronto's league-best start of 10-0 in 1993.
Foote, the biggest free-agent signing in franchise history, helped Columbus end a slide in which the Blue Jackets lost their previous two games (both against Detroit on home ice) by a combined score of 12-2. The Blue Jackets came in with the NHL's fewest points (4) and fewest goals (17).
