Linesman Jonny Murray was helped off the ice in the second period after taking a hit to the right leg from Colorado Avalanche defenseman Devon Toews, and he missed most of the remainder of the game. Murray resumed his duties at the start of the third period but left soon after and didn't return again as the Jets won 3-2 in overtime.
