ANAHEIM, Calif. - A little extra time on the clock went the Columbus Blue Jackets way this time in Southern California. Derick Brassard scored his second goal 3:55 into overtime, and Columbus snapped its six-game skid with a come-from-behind 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Friday night. Jeff Carter forced overtime with a power-play goal in his return from a 10-game absence with a separated shoulder for the Blue Jackets, who finally won in the finale of their six-game road trip. The NHLs worst team even rallied impressively from a third-period deficit in its first game since an apparent clock malfunction possibly cost them a point in a 3-2 loss in Los Angeles two nights ago. After that bizarre disappointment, coach Todd Richards thought his 30th-place Blue Jackets could have mentally packed up and headed home to Ohio when their NHL-worst penalty-killing unit spent much of the second period on the ice in Anaheim. Instead, Columbus gave a rare show of focus and resilience in its awful season, forcing extra time with Carters third-period goal and eventually getting Brassards winner. "It feels good, especially after what happened in the last game," said Brassard, who improved his season rating to minus-17 with his two goals. "We worked really hard. Its always tough on the West Coast, facing good teams, but we just stuck with it. ... We dont have a lot of points in the standings, but all the guys still paid the price and worked hard. We faced a team fighting for the playoffs and made it hard on them." Curtis Sanford made 33 saves for the Blue Jackets (14-32-6), who still sit 11 points behind 29th-place Edmonton in the overall NHL standings. But Columbus didnt pout after Los Angeles Drew Doughty beat them with a goal in the final second two nights earlier, an instant after the clock curiously paused at Staples Center. "The way the game started, I thought we were hung over from that," Richards said. "But I thought the guys regrouped. We battled tonight. We scratched and clawed, and weathered some storms when there were some." Commissioner Gary Bettmans office is still investigating the finish in Los Angeles, but the Jackets will try to forget about it in the meantime. "Im really interested in what hes going to find, and what the reports are going to be," Richards said. "I have my own thoughts, and I think everybody has their own thoughts as far as what happened. I think everybody is watching it closely and waiting to hear what they find. ... I dont think it was intentional by any means, but Im interested to find out what it is." Teemu Selanne scored his 654th and 655th career goals for the Ducks, who have lost two straight home games in discouraging fashion after a 9-1-1 run through most of January. The Ducks 1-for-5 performance on the power play in the second period left Anaheim coach Bruce Boudreau furious at his top power-play unit. "I told them, I dont know why Im putting you guys back out there," Boudreau said. "I must be a fool for punishment, but youre the best we have. ... We let them hang around long enough, and thats what happened." Moments after Selanne barely missed the net with an overtime shot, Brassard stripped the puck from Cam Fowler in the Columbus end and skated the length of the ice to beat Jonas Hiller, who stopped 18 shots. "I thought it was a sloppy game," Boudreau said. "We make a dumb mistake at the end, get outmuscled, and it cost us." Columbus comeback erased another big game for Selanne. The 41-year-old Finnish Flash tore up a familiar foil in his fourth multi-goal game of the season, giving him 40 points in 35 career meetings with Columbus -- including two goals in the Blue Jackets visit to Honda Center last month. Selanne has been Anaheims leading scorer all season long, and his goals gave him 1,389 career points, 22nd-most in NHL history. His 655 goals are 13th in league history and just one behind Brendan Shanahan, who needed 224 more games to reach his mark. "You cant be happy with that," Selanne said. "Really frustrating. We just couldnt do it. I dont think we played that well, and thats what bothers me the most." NOTES: Carter hadnt played since getting hurt in Anaheim on Jan. 8 on a big check by Francois Beauchemin. ... Corey Perrys assist on Selannes second goal was the MVPs first point in five games. ... Brassard has nine points in 13 games after managing just 10 in the Jackets first 31 games. ... LW Jason Blake returned to the Ducks lineup after missing two games with an undisclosed foot injury. ... Columbus C Ryan Johansen missed his second straight game with an illness, but D Marc Methot returned after missing two games with an illness. P.J. Williams Womens Jersey .

LONG BEACH, Calif. -- Canadas James Hinchcliffe earned his first IndyCar podium finish Sunday thanks to his teammates mistake. Hinchliffe was running fifth at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach when fellow Andretti Autosport driver Ryan Hunter-Reay spun third-place Takuma Sato on the last lap. Sato dropped back to eighth, while Hunter-Reay was penalized 30 seconds for avoidable contact and fell to sixth. That allowed Hinchcliffe, who started 16th, to claim third place. "The race itself was chaotic at times, but at the end of the day, to get my first podium and get the GoDaddy car back on the podium was great," said the Oakville, Ont., native. "The calls on the pit stand were a huge part of it. It was just a great team effort today to get us from 16th up to third." Hinchcliffe sympathized with Hunter-Reay, his penalized teammate. "I do feel bad for Ryan," said Hinchcliffe. "Obviously, Im here because of his penalty. We finished fourth on track and sort of only got there because of him. He was punching holes left, right and centre and I was just following him through for part of the race. So big thanks to him, as well." Hinchcliffe qualified sixth on the 26-car grid, but was forced to start 16th after an unauthorized engine change. Despite the difficulty of passing on the narrow 3.167-kilometre street circuit, he moved up 13 positions in 85 laps to earn the final podium position. He started the week with a test at Infineon Raceeway in Sonoma, Calif.dddddddddddd An engine failure during the test forced a new engine for the Long Beach race, which violated a series rule and cost Hinchcliffe 10 positions on the starting grid. Following the Sonoma test, Chevrolets engineers opted to change the engines in all the Chevrolet cars, bumping 11 drivers back on the Long Beach grid. "We went to Sonoma to try to have a good test and learn a little bit about the race coming up there in August. It didnt go so well," Hinchcliffe said. "We knew right away that I was going to be serving a 10-place penalty. It was certainly a kick because we had momentum, we had a strong street-course car and this is a track Ive always run well at, so we thought we had a good chance of a good finish. I got off the plane on Thursday morning and found out that everybody else was going to be joining me." Now the pressure is on for Hinchcliffes first IndyCar win. Hes started his sophomore season off well with a fourth-place finish at the opening race at St. Petersburg before placing sixth at Barber. Hinchcliffe is also in fifth place in the overall standings. Theres been a bunch of great Canadian IndyCar drivers," he said. "Almost every Canadian who made it to this level was a race winner, so its a point of pride on one hand, but its also a little bit of pressure knowing that Im now sort of in that role. Id like to keep that streak alive." -- With files from the Associated Press. cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap jerseys cheapjerseyswholesale wholesale jerseys ' ' '
