COLUMBUS, Ohio — Damon Severson broke a scoreless tie in the third period, Elvis Merzlikins stopped 28 shots in recording his first shutout of the season and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the New York Islanders 2-0. It was the first time this season the Blue Jackets (5-3-1) have strung together two wins straight wins, but they have collected seven of a possible eight points in their last four games. Severson's shot from a sharp angle on the right caromed off the skate of New York defenseman Ryan Pulock and into the net 5:43 into the third period.
