Columbus, battling for a playoff spot, won for the first time in Philadelphia in its seventh trip to the city.

James Wisniewski and Brandon Dubinsky scored for the Blue Jackets, who occupy the last wild card position in the Eastern Conference. They are 3-3-1 in their last seven games.

Steve Mason gave up two goals on 27 shots for the Flyers, who have been shut out in back-to-back games.

Philadelphia's goalless drought is 130 minutes and 25 seconds since Vincent Lecavalier scored the tying goal in Sunday's eventual 4-3 shootout loss to Boston. Two days later, Philadelphia lost 1-0 in a shootout in St. Louis.
