Blue Jackets make 42 saves in shutout of Penguins

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Sergei Bobrovsky and Oscar Dansk combined to make 42 saves, and the Columbus Blue Jackets topped the Pittsburgh Penguins 2-0 in a preseason game on Tuesday night.

Bobrovsky played the first two periods and finished with 30 saves. Dansk made 12 in relief.

Michael Chaput and Cam Atkinson both had a goal and assist for Columbus (3-0). Chaput stuffed in a loose puck late in the second period after Atkinson drove the net and put a shot off the right post.

Atkinson scored into an empty net.

Pittsburgh (0-2) again played without stars Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Thomas Greiss went the distance and made 26 saves.
