Columbus, OH (SportsNetwork.com) - Ryan Johansen was credited with the game winner in the shootout, and Columbus recovered from a Pittsburgh rally late in regulation to post a 4-3 victory at Nationwide Arena. Nick Foligno, Boone Jenner and Jack Johnson scored for the Blue Jackets, who extended their season-high win streak to six games. Sergei Bobrovsky made 33 saves, then turned away Brandon Sutter in the games final segment to lock up the win. Thats a big two points for us, Foligno said. Weve got to make sure we tighten up those 6-on-5s. Weve got to find away to be a little better, a little smarter. Its tough against a high-powered team like that. Kris Letang tallied twice, including the tying marker with less than 11 seconds to play for the Penguins, who also received a goal from Blake Comeau. Thomas Greiss stopped 24 pucks in 65 minutes of play but allowed two of three Columbus shooters to best him. Cam Atkinson and Johansen scored on the hosts first two attempts, while Letang kept the visitors in with a score on the Pens second try. Folignos backhander went wide of the net, but Sutters salvo was turned away to end the contest. Foligno slammed home a centering feed by Jenner from atop the crease just after the three-minute mark of the first to cap the games first power play. The Pens escaped unharmed after Patric Hornqvist and Letang committed minors 1:12 apart early in the second which gave the Jackets 48 seconds of 5-on-3 play. Craig Adams had a prime chance to put the visitors on the board with 5 1/2 minutes left in the period, but he shot high and wide at a half-open net from the right side as Bobrovsky couldnt scramble fast enough to get into position. Comeau did pull his club even with 4:54 left, scoring from the outer edge of the left circle on a shot which an unscreened Bobrovsky could have stopped if he was tighter to the near post. Letangs backhander to finish a 2-on-1 short-handed rush with Adams hit the net at 7:22 of the third period. Jenner was awarded a penalty shot with 7:55 left in regulation when Pittsburghs Simon Despres dragged him down on a breakaway, and the former tied the game on a quick wrister. Johnsons shot from the left circle with 2:11 on the clock put the hosts ahead, and the lead seemed safe until Letang forced overtime when his rip from the left-wing boards beat Bobrovsky to the far side with 10.9 showing. We played really well in the third period, Letang said. We were really after them. We earned that point. Bobrovsky came up with five more stops to keep his team in it while killing a penalty in the extra session.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- New England Patriots cornerback Alfonzo Dennard reported to a Lincoln jail Saturday to begin his 60-day term for a 2012 assault on a police officer. Dennard, 24, reported to the Lancaster County Adult Detention Facility Saturday morning, according to corrections officers with the Lincoln facility who spoke on condition of anonymity because of jail policy. The former Nebraska football standout will have to serve at least 35 days, after credit for good behaviour and the three days hes already spent in jail. In April, a judge sentenced Dennard to two years probation, 30 days in jail and community service for assaulting an officer and resisting arrest outside a Lincoln bar days before he was choseen in the NFL Draft.dddddddddddd Dennard had been projected to be a middle-round NFL draft pick, but the Patriots took him in the seventh round. The judge later extended his probation to three years and doubled the jail time after Dennard was again arrested in Lincoln on suspicion of drunken driving in July. That charge was later dismissed in exchange for Dennards no contest plea for refusing to submit to a chemical test. He was fined $500 and placed on probation for that offence. Dennard finished this season, his second in the NFL, with 40 tackles (34 solo, 6 assists) and one interception. The Patriots fell just short of the Super Bowl, losing to the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship game. ' ' '
