CALGARY, Alberta, Feb. 3 (UPI) -- Kristian Huselius, Jarome Iginla and Robyn Regehr each had a goal and two assists Friday night as the Calgary Flames beat Columbus, 6-2.

Iginla was making his first appearance on the ice since Jan. 4, when he sprained his left knee in a game against the Florida Panthers. Huselius notched the seventh goal and 10th assist of his current 11-game scoring streak.

Mark Giordano had a goal and an assist, and Miikka Kiprusoff stopped 20 shots for the Flames, who won their second straight game following a two-game losing streak.

Rostislav Klesla and Jason Chimera scored for the Blue Jackets, who lost their second straight game after a four-game winning streak. Ty Conklin allowed five goals on 16 shots for Columbus, before being pulled in the second period for Tomas Popperle, who made seven stops the rest of the way.

The Flames took control of the game when they scored three goals within a span of 3:13 in the first period.
