Garland's Two-Goal Game Lifts Blue Jackets Over Lightning

NHL stories making news on March 11th. Columbus Blue Jackets topped the Tampa Bay Lightning

5-2 on Tuesday night. Ford, Connor Garland led the way with two goals, marking his second

straight multi-goal game. The 29-year-old has four goals in just three games since joining

the team. Garland also scored twice in Mondays 5-4 over time loss against the Los Angeles

Kings. He came over in a trade from the Vancouver Canucks on March 6th, and this is his first

time with back-to-back two goal outings in the national, Hockey League. The win stretched

Columbus' point streak to seven games, now sitting at four wins and three overtime losses

in that span. They're 33, 21, and 10 overall. Key helpers included Sean Monahan and Zach

Werencky with two assists each. Tampa Bay got goals from Gage Gonkov's and JJ Moser,

but has dropped six of their last seven. They're 39, 20, and four on the season. Gonkovus

was back after missing four games with a lower body injury. Elvis Merzlikin stopped 16 shots

for Columbus and even picked up an assist. André Basilewski made 26 saves for the lightning.
