COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Devils can’t afford more clunkers like these if they want to make the playoffs.
Nick Foligno had his second career hat trick and added an assist to lead the Blue Jackets to a 6-1 victory over the Devils on Thursday night.
Brandon Saad, Brandon Dubinksy — playing his 600th career game — and Rene Bourque also scored, and Matt Calvert and William Karlsson each had three assists as the Blue Jackets improved to 8-2-3 in their last 13 games. Steady rookie Joonas Korpisalo made 25 saves and is 10-2-3 in his past 14 starts.
