COLUMBUS, Ohio -- After sitting out six games with an injury, Evander Kane wanted to make up for lost time. Kane returned to score a goal and added an assist, leading the Winnipeg Jets to a 3-2 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday night. "I put on my skates and I tried to help this team win -- thats just how I am," said Kane, who had been out since Nov. 29 with a lower-body injury. Mark Scheifele and Bryan Little also had goals for the Jets, with Al Montoya making 22 saves. "I felt confident and the team did a good job tonight. I cant say that enough," said Montoya, who got the start because Ondrej Pavelec had given up five goals in a 6-4 home loss on Saturday. "(The Blue Jackets) didnt have too many chances." A slow, checking game with few good scoring opportunities for most of the first two periods turned into a sprint in the third period, with the teams scoring three times inside 3 minutes. Kanes goal proved to be the winner. "I thought (Kane) looked good for a guy whos been out for a little while," Winnipeg coach Claude Noel said. "His shot on the 3-on-1 was great. And his pass to Scheifele was also good." R.J. Umberger and Fedor Tyutin had the goals for the Blue Jackets, who had a first-period goal disallowed. They had picked up points in five of their past six games (4-1-1). The Jets, coming off an 0-2-1 homestand, opened the scoring when Scheifele notched his fourth at the 13:59 mark of the second. Finding his teammate on a nifty 2-on-1 pass below the hash, Kane sent a pass to Scheifele that he lifted high into the top of the net. Thanks to a double-minor for high sticking against Cam Atkinson, the Jets made it 2-0 at 2:28 of the third. A seemingly innocent one-timer from the blue line by Dustin Byfuglien was redirected by Little, who merely stuck out his stick. The puck ricocheted off it and also off the skate of Columbus defenceman David Savards skate. Umberger collected a pass from Matt Calvert behind the net and scored on the wraparound to cut the lead to 2-1 at 8:48. Moments later, however, David Savard got caught pinching in and it resulted in a 3-on-1 rush with Kane blistering a high shot to push the lead back to two goals at the 10:35 mark. "We played solid with the puck," Kane said. "When youve got a 3-1 lead youve got to put them away. We played a solid game. But its nothing to jump up and down about, though." Once again the Blue Jackets countered, this time when Nick Foligno stole the puck in his offensive zone. Montoya stopped his shot, but Mark Letestu then fed Tyutin, who was crashing the net from the wing to make it 3-2 at the 11:39 mark. Mike McKenna, who had 29 saves, was starting his fourth consecutive game since backup Curtis McElhinney (lower body) was injured -- in relief of last years Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky (groin strain). In the final minute of the scoreless first period, there was a wild scramble in the crease led to Calvert being checked into the cage just as the puck went past Montoya into the net, possibly off the stick of Jets defenceman Jacob Trouba. But referee Tim Peel immediately waved off the goal while the crowd booed loudly. Peel said Montoya did not have room to make a play. "I didnt see a goaltender interference on that play," Blue Jackets coach Todd Richards said. "Youre disappointed in the call, but that was one play of many, many in the game." The crowd booed louder each time the replay was shown on the centre ice monitors. The officials deliberated for 45 seconds, but Peel then announced that the call was non-reviewable. "I felt I was pushed in and I tried to dodge (Montoya)," Calvert said. "I thought the puck was in the net before I was but it was a situation where the official had to make a quick call."

Sean Millers Wildcats made light work of Oregon on Wednesday night, cruising by the Ducks, 90-56. The victory was the fifth straight for Arizona overall and the 33rd straight at the McKale Center, the second-longest active homecourt winning streak in the nation. With the rout of the Ducks, the Wildcats moved to 19-2 on the season and sit atop the Pac-12 standings at 7-1. Wayne Tinkles Beavers are looking to salvage their current road trip to the desert. Oregon State dropped a 73-55 decision to Arizona State in Tempe on Wednesday, halting a three-game win streak. The loss to the Sun Devils leaves OSU at 14-6 overall and 5-3 in league play, good for fourth place in the standings. Arizona holds a 58-21 advantage in the all-time series with Oregon State, but it is the Beavers seeking the regular-season sweep, after ending a seven-game losing streak to the Wildcats, with a stunning 58-56 upset in Corvallis back on Jan. 11. Gary Payton II poured in a game-high 23 points, but it wasnt even remotely enough to keep the Beavers competitive, as they dropped an 18-point decision to the Sun Devils at Wells Fargo Arena on Wednesday. Payton was joined in double figures by Malcolm Duvivier and Jarmal Reid, who finished with 14 and 13 points, respectively. The Beavers connected on a strong 49 percent of their shots, but managed just five total points from the rest of the roster in the loss. The Beavers arent really known for their offensive prowess this season, as they put up just 63.7 ppg on .442 shooting. However, the defensive effort has been a strength for the most part, as OSU limits foes to just 56.9 ppg on a mere .366 shooting that includes just a .283 mark from behind the arc. PPayton is a do-it-all player that finds a way to contribute at both ends of the floor.dddddddddddd Despite his size (6-3), the junior leads the Beavers in scoring (13.2 ppg), rebounding (8.2 rpg) and steals (58). The team is missing some scoring punch with a 10-game suspension levied on Victor Robbins (10.3 ppg), although Langston Morris-Walker (10.0 ppg), Duvuvier (9.6 ppg) and Olaf Schaftenaar (9.5 ppg) have tried to fill the void. For the second time this season, Arizona humbled the Oregon Ducks. After rolling to an 80-62 victory in Eugene a couple of weeks ago, the Wildcats distanced themselves further from Oregon on Wednesday night, earning a 34- point win. Arizona put on an offensive clinic in the victory, shooting a scalding .593 from the floor overall, as six Wildcats finished in double figures in the balanced attack. Gabe York paced the team with 16 points. Brandon Ashley finished with 13, while Stanley Johnson (12 pts), Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (11 pts), Kaleb Tarczewski (11 pts) and T.J. McConnell (10 pts) joined the fun as well. The Wildcats are starting to peak and that wont be good for the rest of the Pac-12. Arizona has shown very few weaknesses this season and enters this contest with an inflated +16.4 scoring margin as a result. The team is shooting .498 from the field en route to 75.7 ppg, while holding foes to a meager 59.3 ppg on .402 shooting. UA also lives comfortably in terms of rebounding (+7.4) and turnover (+3.1) margins. Johnson is one of the Pac-12s young stars. The freshman forward can score from all over the floor and leads the team in both scoring (14.9 ppg) and rebounding (6.9 rpg). Frontcourt depth is a strength, with Ashley (11.3 ppg, 5.2 rpg), Hollis-Jefferson (10.9 ppg, 6.4 rpg) and Tarczewski (8.8 ppg, 4.9 rpg) all making sizable contributions. McConnell (9.0 ppg, 5.8 apg) and York (9.0 ppg) provide backcourt balance.
