COLUMBUS, Ohio — There was no stopping the Columbus Blue Jackets’ third line of Nick Foligno, Matt Calvert and William Karlsson on Thursday night.
Foligno recorded his second career hat trick and added an assist to lead the Blue Jackets to a 6-1 victory over the Devils.
“It’s nice to contribute and help the guys in that department,” said Foligno, who set a career high with four points. “It’s something I pride myself on, but I was more proud of the way we played.”
Brandon Saad, Brandon Dubinsky — playing his 600th career game — and Rene Bourque also scored, and Calvert and Karlsson each had three assists as the Blue Jackets improved to 8-2-3 in their last 13 games.
