Jones scores again, surging Blue Jackets beat Canadiens 5-2
COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Blue Jackets only had Seth Jones for two periods. It turned out to be more than enough.
Jones was the driving force behind two first-period power-play goals, and Columbus won its fifth straight, 5-2 over the Montreal Canadiens on Monday night.
“We’re taking it game by game even with this winning streak,” said Alexander Wennberg, who tied a career high with four points on a goal and three assists. “We’re playing good, we don’t get too far ahead of ourselves. You just face the challenge.”
Nick Foligno, Boone Jenner and Ian Cole also scored for Columbus.
