Kirill Marchenko, Cole Sillinger and James van Riemsdyk scored, and Jet Greaves made 23 saves for the Blue Jackets (12-13-5). They are 0-1-2 in their past three games, losing the past two in overtime after leading in the third period, including a 2-1 loss to the Washington Capitals on Thursday.

Anaheim Ducks' newest defenseman says SoCal is a better option than Columbus for his career, his wife's career as a physician and their young son.

The Ducks were coming off of a five-game winless streak entering this game and sat in last place in the Pacific Division. They won their first meeting against the Jackets on Nov. 10 in Anaheim by a score of 4-2. The Blue Jackets also came into this one at the bottom of their division standings, hoping to surpass the .500 mark.
