ANAHEIM New York Rangers Hoodies Authentic , Calif. (AP)kill has been able to keep opponents in check.They can score goals as well as they can prevent them, a knack they showed against the Columbus Blue Jackets to bolster Anaheim’s playoff chances.Andrew Cogliano and Josh Manson scored 1:27 apart in the second period and the Ducks defeated the Blue Jackets 4-2 on Friday night.Cogliano put Anaheim in front 2-1 at 11:17 with his 15th short-handed goal for the Ducks, one shy of tying Paul Kariya’s team record. Artemi Panarin couldn’t collect a pass by Pierre-Luc Dubois from the neutral zone back into the Columbus end while under pressure from Cogliano, giving the Anaheim forward a breakaway. He beat Sergei Bobrovsky between his legs.It was the Ducks’ ninth short-handed goal this season. Anaheim is tied with Florida and Buffalo for the NHL lead.Manson scored shortly after leaving the penalty box, making it 3-1 at 12:44. Collecting Francois Beauchemin’s clearance at the Columbus blue line, Manson scored on the breakaway with a backhand by faking Bobrovsky into doing the splits.”It’s like what you dream about when you’re in the penalty box,” said Manson, who scored his fifth goal.The Ducks have killed off 29 of 30 penalties in their last 10 games, the best mark in the NHL since Feb. 9. That includes 20 straight kills, and they kept the Blue Jackets scoreless on their two power-play chances.”It’s getting to the time of the season where you can’t make many mistakes and you need to be good. You need to be good every night, so I think we’re all holding ourselves to a little bit higher standard and putting a little pressure on ourselves `cause we want to have a good run here,” Ducks goalie John Gibson said.Gibson made 34 saves after missing three games with a lower-body injury. Rickard Rakell and Cam Fowler each had a goal and an assist for the Ducks New York Rangers Hats Authentic , who are 5-1-1 in their last seven games.Sonny Milano and Zach Werenski scored for the Blue Jackets, who have lost three in a row on the road.

Special-teams issues have been a recurring trend for Columbus, which gave up decisive power-play and short-handed goals in its loss at the Los Angeles Kings to open a three-game California road trip.”We played good enough to lose, and in that little section of the game, that minute or so in the game . I thought we were playing really well to that point. Yeah, I don’t know what else to tell you. That changes games,” Tortorella said.NOTES: Ducks C Ryan Getzlaf missed the game with the flu. … Blue Jackets C Alexander Wennberg did not play because of an upper-body injury. … Chris Kelly had one shot and played 9:27 in his Anaheim debut.

We showed some battle and got back, but probably not our best game.”Playing for the second consecutive night, Minnesota started backup Alex Stalock in goal in place of All-Star starter Devon Dubnyk, who was pulled during Monday’s 7-4 loss at Philadelphia. Stalock made 31 saves Tuesday and stopped all three shootout tries.Jonathan Quick made 40 saves for Los Angeles.“We rely on him a little bit too much, but he made some big saves, for sure,” Kings coach Willie Desjardins said. “The game could have got away on us a little bit, but we do depend on him that way.”NOTES: The Kings had to kill off a 4-on-3 penalty during the overtime period. … Dubnyk had started 16 of the last 17 games Minnesota.UP NEXTKings: At Dallas Stars on Thursday.Wild: Host Anaheim Ducks on Thursday.
