OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — Sergei Bobrovsky made 22 saves and Matt Duchene's first game with the Columbus Blue Jackets was a 3-0 win over his former team, the Ottawa Senators, on Friday night. Duchene, traded by Ottawa to Columbus hours earlier, was held pointless. Josh Anderson, Cam Atkinson and Oliver Bjorkstrand scored for the Blue Jackets.

Craig Anderson made 37 saves for the Senators, who were shut out for the second straight game and have lost three straight. Ottawa has gone 125 minutes, 17 seconds, since its last goal.

JETS 6, GOLDEN KNIGHTS 3

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Patrik Laine scored twice and Connor Hellebuyck made 31 saves to lead Winnipeg over Vegas.

The Central Division-leading Jets entered 2-4-2 in their previous eight games but rebounded from an embarrassing 7-1 loss at Colorado on Wednesday to improve to 12-3-2 against Pacific Division opponents this season.

The victory was Paul Maurice's 685th as an NHL coach. He passed Pat Quinn for eighth on the career list.

Pierre Edouard Bellemare, Shea Theodore and Jonathan Marchessault scored for Vegas. Marc-Andre Fleury made 23 saves.

Fleury has lost five in a row and eight of his past 10 starts, allowing 24 goals over his last six games.

The Golden Knights are 3-9-1 in the past month. They have just one win in their last eight home games (1-6-1).

Tyler Bertuzzi and Anthony Mantha scored for Detroit.

AVALANCHE 5, BLACKHAWKS 3

FLAMES 2, DUCKS 1

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Andrew Mangiapane scored the go-ahead goal with 3:29 left and Calgary edged Anaheim for its fourth straight victory.

The rookie left wing tried to pass the puck across to Garnet Hathaway on a 2-on-1. Instead it hit Ducks defenseman Jaycob Megna and came right back to Mangiapane, who ripped a shot over the shoulder of goalie Ryan Miller.

TJ Brodie also scored for Calgary, which moved three points ahead of San Jose atop the Pacific Division. The Flames lead the Western Conference standings as well.

Making his fifth consecutive start for the first time this season, Mike Smith had 25 saves to improve to 18-11-2.

Derek Grant scored for Anaheim, which dropped to 1-1-0 on a four-game road trip. The Ducks had won three of their first four under interim coach Bob Murray.
