Mikhail Sergachev and Michael Carcone scored for Utah, and Connor Ingram had 25 saves.

In the extra period, Crosby got a drop pass from Cody Glass at the bottom of the left circle, skated across the front of the goal and put a backhander over Ingram's left pad.

Sergachev, back in Utah’s lineup after missing five games with an upper-body injury, opened the scoring with a power-play goal with 5:09 left in the first period.

Pettersson tied it at 6:40 of the second, before Carcone put Utah back ahead less than 2 minutes later.

Karlsson tied it at 6:17 of the third.

Utah: Utah remained in sixth place in the Central Division, just one point behind St. Louis.

Pittsburgh: The Penguins finished 3-4-0 on a seven-game trip.

Karlsson picked up a loose puck at the blue line as Utah was trying to clear it, and skated in on the right side and beat Ingram up high to tie the score in the third period.

The Penguins improved to 9-17-5 when giving up the first goal.

Utah hosts Columbus on Friday, and Penguins host Nashville on Saturday.

Trump says federal government should 'take over' DC, backing congressional GOP push

2025-02-20 11:08 Last Updated At:11:10

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Wednesday threw his support behind congressional efforts for a federal takeover of the nation's capital, saying he approves putting the District of Columbia back under direct federal control.

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump complained about crime and homelessness in the district, saying, “I think we should take over Washington, D.C. — make it safe.” He added, "I think that we should govern District of Columbia.”

Under terms of the city’s Home Rule authority, Congress already vets all D.C. laws and can outright overturn them. Some congressional Republicans have sought to go further, eroding decades of the city’s limited autonomy and putting it back under direct federal control, as it was at its founding.

Trump said he liked District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser personally, but complained about the city's governance.

“They’re not doing the job,” Trump said. “Too much crime, too much — too many tents on the lawns — these magnificent lawns.”

He argued that he can't have sights of homelessness when he hosts foreign leaders in Washington. “You just can’t let that happen,” Trump said. “You can’t have tents on all your beautiful — your once magnificent plaza and lawns.”
