Mark Letestu and Cam Atkinson scored in a shootout to lift the Columbus Blue Jackets over the Minnesota Wild 3-2 on Saturday.
For the first time in four year with Columbus Fedor Tyutin fell prey to the injury bug, playing in 66 games but still managing his usual offensive output with five goals and 26 points. His plus-minus bottomed out though, to minus-21, as much due to deterioration in his play as it was to the collapse of the team as a whole. Assuming he returns to full health he should pick up the slack on the defensive end and provide a solid presence on the Blue Jackets' top two blue line pairs, while also mentoring the wave of young defensemen like John Moore and Ryan Murray coming up through the ranks.
