CHICAGO, March 13 (UPI) -- Antoine Vermette scored twice Friday night and Wade Dubielewicz made 27 saves to bring the Columbus Blue Jackets their fourth straight win -- 5-3 over Chicago.

Columbus scored just 45 seconds into the game, later blew a two-goal lead and then came back to hand the Blackhawks their third loss in four outings.

Vermette delivered the early goal and, after Chicago had rallied to forge a 2-2 tie, he gave the Blue Jackets the lead for good by scoring on the power play with 2:16 remaining in the second period.

Raffi Torres, Kristian Huselius and Rick Nash also scored for Columbus. The Blue Jackets got four goals past Cristobal Huet on 21 shots.
