his 25th goal of the season, Artemi
Panarin connected in overtime and Columbus beat Washington
after the defending Stanley Cup champion Capitals lost All-Star
goaltender Braden Holtby to
an eye injury.

Holtby took a stick to the left eye from Atkinson through
his mask in the second period. He left the game, giving way to backup Pheonix
Copley, and the team said Holtby was still being evaluated.
Blue Jackets goalie Joonas
Korpisalo stopped 32 shots in his second consecutive start in
place of Sergei
Bobrovsky, who backed up after being scratched Thursday for
disciplinary reasons. Coach John Tortorella did not commit to starting
Bobrovsky in the second half of his teams back-to-back this weekend.

breakaway, Columbus was cruising toward a regulation victory until Evgeny
Kuznetsov tied it with 1:06 left. The 6-on-5 goal was
Kuznetsov's first in 18 games dating to Dec. 2.

games and gave the Blue Jackets back-to-back wins with a power-play goal 3:30
into overtime.
