COLUMBUS http://www.officialsabres.com/authentic-adidas-rasmus-ristolainen-jersey , Ohio (AP) — Blake Wheeler scored four goals against Columbus, but it was the Winnipeg captain’s prettiest of the evening — a well-placed shot on an odd-man rush late in the game — that really deflated the Blue Jackets.The goal off Patrik Laine’s feed with 2:13 left put the Jets up 4-2, and Wheeler added an empty-netter with 34 seconds left on the way to a 5-2 win over Columbus on Sunday night.Wheeler was in the right place at the right time on the first two goals, getting deflections off the sticks of teammates shooting from the point.“You want to contribute,” said Wheeler, who has 80 points this season. “That’s the biggest thing.

It’s not a good feeling. We need results right now.”Niku got his first goal of the year and the second of his career, a snipe over Bobrovsky’s glove from the point 2:21 into the game. Foligno evened the score for Columbus later in the period on a power play, batting in a rebounded puck from the doorstep.Wheeler made it 2-1 Jets when he redirected Kulikov’s point shot past Bobrovsky 35 seconds into the second period. Jones rifled in a slap shot from the top of the right circle later in the second for the Blue Jackets to tie the game again.Wheeler’s three in the third period slammed the door on Columbus.NOTES: Jets F Adam Lowry served the first of a two-game suspension for high-sticking Nashville’s Filip Forsberg on Friday.
