Cam Atkinson netted two goals and the Columbus Blue Jackets matched the second-longest win streak in National Hockey League history Saturday with their 15th consecutive victory, a 4-2 triumph at Minnesota. Atkinson, a 27-year-old US right wing who tops Columbus scorers, struck for his 16th and 17th goals of the season as the league-leading Blue Jackets stretched their streak two wins shy of the league record by snapping Minnesota's 12-game victory run. It was the first time two NHL teams on double-digit win streaks had ever faced each other and the first time two clubs had such long streaks concurrently.
