TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Barrett Hayton scored in overtime, Connor Ingram stopped two breakaways in the closing seconds and the Arizona Coyotes extended their points streak to nine games with a 3-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Arizona jumped out to an early lead on first-period goals by Travis Boyd and Nick Schmaltz. The last-place Blue Jackets picked up the pressure in the third period and Patrick Laine tied the game on a power play with five minutes left. Ingram stopped a good chance in overtime after the two breakaways and finished with 34 saves. Hayton ended it two minutes into overtime on a pass from Matias Maccelli to give the Coyotes their longest points streak since a 12-game run in 2012.
