CHICAGO, JAN. 26 - The Jets traveled 1155 kilometers to face the Chicago Blackhawks in the same day, on the second night of a back-to-back, but this fact alone wasn't enough to slow the team as they escaped with an overtime victory after a goal by Antoine Vermette.
Winnipeg's defense seemed to feel the effects of playing two games in two nights, starting the game in a slow pace and allowing two goals by Marian Hossa (one of them after a fumbled puck from Bogosian), but the team bounced back with a beautiful backhanded goal by Andrew Ladd to take the game to overtime.
In the OT, Vermette's one-timer was too much for Labarbera, giving the win to the visitors.

Note: this was the third Blackhawks game that finished in overtime fashion. Chicago is 0-3 in these games.
