COLUMBUS, OHIO (AP) -- David Jones scored twice and had an assist and Semyon Valamov turned away 28 shots Friday night to lead the Colorado Avalanche to a 5-0 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Gabriel Landeskog had a goal and an assist and Steve Downie and Matt Hunwick also scored for the Avalanche, who were up to their usual tricks against the Blue Jackets. They are 32-8-1-1 against
Columbus, including 15-5-1-1 on the Blue Jackets' home ice. The Avalanche won a second game in a row for the first time since Dec. 31. They started the night two points out of the eighth playoff spot in the West.
The game was the first for the Blue Jackets since they made two major trades this week.
