A few first's tonight for the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Columbus picked up their first win of the young season against the Buffalo Sabres, and Alexandre Texier aided in that effort, scoring the overtime game-winner, the first of his young career.
It's @atexier99 (Alexandre Texier) with the @EASPORTSNHL OT winner!

Texier now has three career goals and counting for the Blue Jackets, both previously coming from the 2018-2019 campaign (one at the tail end of the regular season, and another against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the playoffs).

The Blue Jackets improve to 1-2-0 thanks to Texier's goal, and they look to get a winning streak going on Friday at home against the Anaheim Ducks.
