COLUMBUS, Ohio — Jack Roslovic scored twice in the third period on his way to a four-point game, and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-5 Saturday despite giving up a four-goal lead.

Kirill Marchenko also scored twice, Patrik Laine contributed a goal and two assists, Boone Jenner had a goal and one assist, and Johnny Gaudreau and Roslovic had two assists. Joonas Korpisalo stopped 48 shots – including 22 in the third period – to help Columbus snap a two-game losing streak.

Connor McDavid had two goals and two assists for Edmonton, and Warren Foegele and Leon Draisaitl each had a goal. Brett Kulak and Tyson Barrie each had two assists and Jack Campbell stopped 10 shots before being replaced at 5:56 of the second by Stuart Skinner, who also stopped 10.

Edmonton is in third place in the Pacific Division, two points behind the Los Angeles Kings. The Blue Jackets are tied with Anaheim for last place in the NHL.

Columbus seemed to be on its way to an easy win with four unanswered goals to start the game; Marchenko in the first and second period, and second-period goals from Jenner and Laine.

Foegele put Edmonton on the board at 6:40 of the second and opened the floodgates. The Oilers scored three more times that period. Draisaitl’s notched his NHL-leading 23rd power play goal, McDavid got one at 12:51 and his team-leading third short-handed score less than two minutes later knotted the game at 4 apiece.

Roslovic put Columbus in front to stay at 9:01 and made it 6-4 with just over 5 minutes remaining. Hyman added Edmonton’s final goal at 17:04.

CAPITALS 6, RANGERS 3: Tom Wilson scored against the team he’s ruffled the most during his NHL career, T.J. Oshie had two goals with a fight mixed in and host Washington beat New York, snapping its six-game skid.

The Rangers’ rough run continued in their fourth consecutive loss, with a costly injury coming on top of another defensive letdown. Top-pairing defenseman Ryan Lindgren left in the first period after taking a hard hit from Oshie into the boards with his left shoulder first and did not return.

Lindgren’s injury could affect New York’s plans ahead of the trade deadline Friday and possibly open the door to acquire longtime Chicago winger Patrick Kane sooner rather than later. They also made a couple of off-ice moves during the game to set that process in motion.

But while Kane can produce plenty offensively – his 1,225 points rank fourth among U.S. players – the three-time Stanley Cup champion doesn’t solve New York’s problem of keeping the puck out of its own net. Even All-Star goaltender Igor Shesterkin, who denied countryman Alex Ovechkin and others with some big saves, couldn’t save the day against the Capitals, giving up five goals on 22 shots before getting pulled after two periods.

PENGUINS 3, BLUES 2: Bryan Rust scored the winning goal 1:16 into overtime, lifting Pittsburgh to a victory in St. Louis.

Marcus Pettersson’s first goal of the season game on a wrist shot at 14:32 of the third period gave Pittsburgh a 2-1 lead. But the Blues came back on Justin Faulk’s goal at 17:33 to tie it.

Evgeni Malkin also scored for Pittsburgh, and Tristan Jarry made 25 saves to improve to 5-0 in five career games against St. Louis.

DEVILS 7, FLYERS 0: Dawson Mercer scored in his sixth straight, Akira Schmid made 24 saves in posting his first shutout and New Jersey beat the Flyers in Newark, New Jersey, handing Philadelphia goaltender Samuel Ersson his first loss.

Jonas Siegenthaler, Jack Hughes, Nico Hischier, Dougie Hamilton, Jesper Bratt and Nathan Bastian also scored as the Devils improved to 15-3-2 in their last 20 games. The seven-goal winning margin was New Jersey’s largest of the season, and the output matched their season high.

Ersson, who was the 12th NHL goaltender to win each of his first six decision, was outstanding making 29 saves as Philadelphia fell to 1-6-1 in its last eight games. Two of the Devils’ goals were deflected by Flyers players, another one came when a defenseman was pushed into Ersson and opened the crease and four were on his doorstep by open players.

SENATORS 5, CANADIENS 2: Austin Watson and Drake Batherson scored in a 47-second span in the third period to help Ottawa beat win in Montreal.

Watson broke a tie at 4:31 with a deflection of Travis Hamonic’s point shot and Batherson fired a wrist shot from the slot past past goalie Sam Montembeault at 5:18.

Julien Gauthier added his first goal for the Senators with 8:03 to go. Gauthier came over from the New York Rangers a week ago along with a seventh-round pick for forward Tyler Motte.

Derick Brassard and Shane Pinto also scored for Ottawa and Mads Sogaard made 29 saves.

NOTES

RANGERS: On the way out of the arena late in the third period of the New York Rangers’ latest loss, Vitali Kravtsov ran into Washington Capitals forward Aliaksi Protas and told him he was heading to Vancouver.

Patrick Kane could soon be going from Chicago to New York in his place.

The Rangers began the machinations necessary if a trade for Patrick Kane were to materialize. They traded Kravtsov to the Vancouver Canucks and put forward Jake Leschyshyn on waivers, transactions that in combination could clear the cap space to get Kane from Chicago.

Those moves happened while the Rangers were in the midst of getting drubbed 6-3 by the division rival Capitals, with the background distractions creeping into New York’s play.
