Rick Nash scored the Columbus Blue Jackets' third goal in a 2:41 span of the third period to beat Carolina 3-2 last night, the Hurricanes' franchise-record 12th consecutive game without a win.

Nikita Filatov and Jared Boll also scored goals for the Blue Jackets.

Erik Cole and Tim Gleason had goals for Carolina, which lost goalie Cam Ward, who was cut by a skate during the first period and taken by ambulance to a hospital for further evaluation.

Ward left at the 7:35 mark of the first period after he was apparently nicked by a skate.
