NHL News: Kirill Marchenko lifts Jackets to shootout win vs. Flyers

Kirill Marchenko scored his 100th career goal and also tallied in the shootout to lift the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets to a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday.

After the first five shootout attempts were unsuccessful, Marchenko made a late move to his backhand and lifted the puck past Dan Vladar. Marchenko is 10 for 15 in his career on shootouts, among the best marks in NHL history.

Blue Jackets goaltender Jet Greaves made 18 saves in regulation and overtime before denying Matvei Michkov, Trevor Zegras and Travis Konecny in the shootout. Columbus has recorded a point in nine straight games (5-0-4).

Vladar finished with 27 saves for Philadelphia, which had won six of its last eight contests. Alex Bump scored the lone goal for the Flyers.

Columbus nearly took the lead with about eight minutes left in regulation, as Zach Werenski’s shot was deflected in front by Mason Marchment and went just wide. Marchenko had a good chance with about five minutes left in the third, but Vladar held firm.

Overtime was uneventful with Philadelphia recording the only shot on goal. Marchment had a scoring chance midway through OT, but to no avail. Then in the final minute of overtime, Michkov got a semi-breakaway but lost the puck at the last moment.

Marchenko scored his milestone goal 4:21 into the contest. Following a scramble in front of the net, the puck squirted out to the high slot for Marchenko, whose blast sailed past Vladar for his 25th of the season.

About six minutes later, Bump deflected a shot by Emil Andrae past Greaves. The officials initially missed the goal, but replays confirmed that the puck went into the net and then quickly caromed back out.

The goal was the second for Bump in five games to begin his NHL career.

Shot totals were low overall. After a 13-shot attack by Columbus in the first period, the Blue Jackets managed only 15 shots the rest of the way. The Flyers, meanwhile, managed no more than seven shots in any period.
