Red-hot Seth Jones scores 2nd game winner in as many nights
Seth Jones set a new career high in goals and earned his team a win all at once.
The Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman notched his 13th goal of the season in the second period by knocking a rebound past Jared Coreau. The tally stood as the game winner, one night after Jones scored in overtime to beat Colorado.
Gotta commend that first save.

Jones scored earlier in the contest, and he's now tallied more goals in 69 games this season (13) than he did in 75 appearances in 2016-17 (12) - a personal best.
Over the last two games, he's recorded three goals and two assists, and has established a new career high in points (46) as well.
The way he's been playing lately, both will only keep rising before the regular season is over.
