WINNIPEG
Authentic Braden Smith Jersey , Manitoba (AP) Mark Scheifele scored the only goal in a shootout and the Winnipeg Jets clinched a playoff spot with a 5-4 win

PITTSBURGH (AP) – Bryan Rust redirected a pass from Sidney Crosby 2:25 into overtime and Pittsburgh finished off a season sweep of Philadelphia.
The Flyers tied it on Sean Couturier’s goal with 43 seconds left in regulation, but the Penguins controlled the extra period. Rust ended it when he
got his stick down in time to get a piece of Crosby’s pass from the top of the
left circle and knock it by Petr Mrazek to give the Penguins their first sweep
of Philadelphia since the 2006-07 season.
Crosby’s spectacular goal 17 seconds into the third period gave Pittsburgh a 4-3 advantage. Crosby held off Couturier high in the zone, skated to the left
dot and ripped a wrist shot over Philadelphia defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere and
Mrazek’s glove. Couturier exacted a bit of revenge when he knotted it late to
assure the Flyers of at least a point.
Still, the Penguins pulled within three points of first-place Washington in the Metropolitan Division and moved two points clear of Philadelphia, which
pulled into a third-place tie with Columbus.
