The Winnipeg Jets produced a late comeback for the record book Tuesday night, scoring four times in the final 2:06 of regulation before Dylan Samberg completed a 5-4 overtime victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

Montreal carried a 4-0 lead deep into the third period, but Winnipeg’s rally began with Tyrel Bauer’s first NHL goal. Kyle Connor then scored twice during the surge, and Morgan Barron supplied the tying goal with 31 seconds remaining.

Samberg ended the game 3:30 into overtime. The defenseman’s winner capped a sequence that Reuters reported as the latest four-goal comeback in NHL history, measured by how little time remained when the rally began.

The official NHL play-by-play confirms the rapid sequence of Winnipeg goals and the 4-4 score after Barron’s late equalizer. Montreal goaltender Jacob Fowler faced sustained pressure and finished with 42 saves, while Winnipeg’s Stuart Skinner made 18.

The result turned a game that appeared settled into one of the season’s most dramatic finishes. Winnipeg’s offense generated enough late possession to erase the entire deficit in a little more than two minutes, then carried that momentum into the extra period.

For Montreal, the defeat came after building a four-goal cushion and holding it until the closing minutes. For Winnipeg, the comeback showed the value of continuing to press after the result seemed out of reach.
