The Blue Jackets played perhaps their best game of the postseason, but it wasn't enough. Nicklas Backstrom scored in overtime to give Washington a 3-2 series lead.

This series has been full of ups and downs and momentum swings, but Blue Jackets head coach John Tortorella wants his team to focus only on what it can control.
