EDMONTON, Alberta, March 15 (UPI) -- Devan Dubnyk picked up his second shutout of the season Wednesday by making 22 saves in the Edmonton Oilers' 3-0 decision over Columbus.

The Oilers ended a three-game losing streak, downing the team with the worst record in the NHL.

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins snapped a scoreless tie 7:40 into the second period and Taylor Hall produced the game's key goal by scoring on the power play with 5 seconds left in the middle stanza.

Linus Omark finished the scoring with an empty-net tally.

The shutout was the fourth of Dubnyk's career.

Curtis Stanford gave up two goals on 26 shots. Columbus has lost three straight.
