Nikolaj Ehlers and Sami Niku stole the show Monday night in Calgary, each scoring a pair of goals to lead the Winnipeg Jets to a 5-4 pre-season overtime victory over the hometown Flames.

Ehlers scored on a two-on-one-rush just 31 seconds into the extra frame to give his team the win. His second period power play tally snapped a personal 19-game drought going back to last season that included a pair of regular-season games, 15 playoff contests and the first two pre-season games this fall.
