Vancouver Canucks coach Alain Vigneault wasn't coming down
too hard on his team after a win, especially when victories have been so hard to come by of late.
While the Calgary Flames in contention to capture a berth in the highly-contested Western
Conference, Steve Mason and the 30th-place Blue Jackets earned a 2-1 shootout victory at the
Scotiabank Saddledome.
After Tuesday night's 5-1 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena, they're now
only two points back of the Detroit Red Wings for fifth in the Western Conference with just eight
games left to play.
Umberger had his third career hat trick and Steve Mason stopped 39 shots Friday night as the
last-place Blue Jackets routed Carolina 5-1, severely damaging the Hurricanes' flickering playoff
hopes.
Down 2-1 after Rick Nash scored on a penalty shot, the Oilers ran off four unanswered goals in
the remainder of the second period on the way to a 6-3 victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets at
Nationwide Arena on Sunday.
The Detroit Red Wings are in the NHL's postseason field for the 21st straight season after a 7-2
rout of the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday night at Joe Louis Arena and now it's time for them to
start thinking of bigger goals.
More than 40 years ago, Hall of Famer Emile Francis said of hockey: "This game is slippery. It's
played on ice." The Columbus Blue Jackets' 4-2 victory against the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday
night was proof that Francis' axiom is still true.
A disappointing season for the Columbus Blue Jackets ended on a happy note.The Jackets closed
out 2011-12 by pounding the New York Islanders 7-3, delighting a crowd of 17,652 at Nationwide
Arena.
