Saw this hed the other day:

"Jackets lose 2-3 to Bruins in overtime"

Although the Jackets are the home team, shouldn't the score always be written from high to low? Like this:

"Jackets lose 3-2 to Bruins in overtime"
 
The hipster on the desk wrote it. Then he left early because he heard his pub had received a new shipment of Narragansett in time for the Arsenal-Chelsea match.

You are correct, AustinSG.
 
Why do people ask questions they already know the answers to? Just sigh and move on. It saves a lot of time.
