VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- Cory Schneider stopped a career-high 47 shots Tuesday to give the Vancouver Canucks their fifth straight win, a 4-1 decision over Columbus.

Daniel Sedin, Ryan Kesler and Alexandre Burrows each had a goal and an assist for the Canucks. David Booth also scored.

Curtis Sanford stopped 30-of-33 shots for the Blue Jackets, who have lost three of their last four contests. Samuel Pahlsson scored the only Columbus goal.

Pahlsson scored at 4:27 of the third period after Vancouver had scored two goals in the first period. Kesler then made it 3-1 on a slap shot from the left circle at 5:55.
