COLUMBUS, Ohio — With the Columbus Blue Jackets clinging to a 1-0 lead with less than five minutes left, the Washington Capitals finally started to make Sergei Bobrovsky work. The Columbus goalie was up to the task.
Bobrovsky made 13 of his 20 saves in the third period, Nick Foligno got an insurance goal with 3:48 left and Artemi Panarin added an empty-netter with 10 seconds remaining in the Blue Jackets’ 3-0 win over Washington on Tuesday night.
Bobrovsky — whose days in Columbus are probably numbered since he’s refused to re-sign with the club — got his 27th career save.
