Winnipeg Jets 2 Colorado Avalanche 1 OT – (Jets 18-18-5, 9-10-1 on road) – It was the Jets 23rd one-goal game of the season and 12th game that has gone to overtime. Nine of the previous 11 went to a shootout. In the games that ended in the five minute overtime, the Jets lost in Nashville, won in Tampa and came out victorious in this game. In Tampa it was Mark Scheifele scoring with the assist to Blake Wheeler; tonight it was Wheeler set up by Scheifele, with Dustin Byfuglien also assisting (his team leading 22nd assist of the year). It was the first time since November 25/27 that the Jets won back-to-back games. The game was scoreless through 40 minutes with both Al Montoya and Semyon Varlamov making a number of great saves. Shots after 40 minutes favoured the Jets 22-17. Andrew Ladd opened the scoring at 11:42 with his 10th of the year, converting a nice feed from Wheeler. Jacob Trouba also drew an assist. But 29 seconds later Nathan MacKinnon, with his ninth, tied it. His shot went off the stick of Mark Stuart, off the leg of Zach Bogosian and past Montoya. The Avs outshot the Jets 12-11 in the third, and 5-4 in overtime. The winning goal officially came at 4:58 of the overtime, but actually came with 1.3 seconds left on the clock. Byfuglien kept the puck in at the line and Scheifele spotted Wheeler who redirected it through Varlamov for the winner, with Byfuglien causing havoc in front of the net. It was Wheelers second game-winner in as many games. The assist by Scheifele was his 13th of the year, tying him for the league lead among rookies. The goal by Wheeler gives him a team-leading 15 on the season. He has now scored eight in the last nine games and is 6-7-13 in eight career games against the Avs. Trouba led the team in ice time at 25:25, Ladd led in shots with five. For Montoya it was his seventh win of the year; his career-high for one season is nine. Montoya has now won his last four starts and is 5-0 in his last five decisions. Considering the Jets travel issues going into Denver on Saturday (nine-hour mechanical delay), and no morning skate, the Jets played one of their best defensive games of the year. “It was a well-played game,” stated coach Claude Noel. “We had a bit of a slow start but the Wright, Tangradi, Peluso line got us going. It was a tough goal that tied it, but we stuck with it. Stayed focused and never got rattled. We had a lot of good performances.” The Jets close out the 2013 part of their schedule at MTS Centre Tuesday against Buffalo (TSN National, TSN 1290), then head to Ottawa, Boston and Pittsburgh for a three game Eastern Conference trip.

Jared Veldheer Jersey . -- Ben Bishop had a milestone game against one of the NHLs greatest goalies.PARIS - Despite their poor results at the Paris Masters, France captain Arnaud Clement is sticking with his regular players for the Davis Cup final against Switzerland.Clement has picked four players — Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Richard Gasquet, Gael Monfils and Gilles Simon — for a training camp in Bordeaux ahead of the final from Nov. 21-23 in the northern city of Lille.He can still make changes to the team ahead of the final although Clement said its unlikely he will call up new players at the last minute.I think about other players too, but in my mind today, those who have a chance of going on court in Lille are the four players I mentioned, and I want to focus the preparation on them, Clement said at a news conference on Saturday.No French player advanced past the third round in Paris but the French captain is adamant he is not worried before hosting a formidable Swiss team led by the in-form Roger Federer and Stan Wawrinka.The players who had to stop because of injuries were able to play, Clement said. They played good matches, and that was a good thing. I believe this is positive. Now that they are reassured about their condition, they can focus on the Davis Cup. It is their main goal.Gasquet, who played a decisive part in Frances win over defending champion Czech Republic in the semifinals, lost in the second round in Paris and has won just three matches in his past four tournaments. Simons campaign was stopped immediately by Fernando Verdasco while Tsonga and Monfils bowed out in the third round, against Kei Nishikori and Novak Djokovic, respectively.ddddddddddddMonfils, who thought about pulling out from the event because of a knee injury, showed signs of improvement during a tight second set with Djokovic.Richard is extremely motivated by this Davis Cup. He has his mind set on it, Clement said. And I was very pleased with the level of Gael and Jo, also against players who are playing very well. They lost in the end, but I believe those matches were very interesting.France picked indoor clay to host Switzerland in a bid to thwart Federers quest for a first win in the team competition. With the best-of-five series scheduled five days after the ATP finals, the French team is betting that Wawrinka and Federer — who qualified for the year-end event — will struggle to adapt to clay, a surface on which both Tsonga and Gasquet have beaten the 17-time Grand Slam champion.Clement added that Julien Benneteau, who will also be playing at the O2 in London in the doubles tournament, could join his teammates in Bordeaux for the final days of the training camp from No. 10-16.The Davis Cup final will be held at the 27,000-capacity Pierre Mauroy Stadium, under a retractable roof. France is third on the list of all-time winners and bidding for a 10th title. Switzerland is looking for its first.Switzerland reached the final only once before, losing in 1992 against a United States team of Andre Agassi, Jim Courier, John McEnroe and Pete Sampras.
