COLUMBUS, Ohio - Ryan Johansen returned to the Columbus Blue Jackets just before the start of the season.Cam Atkinson and Nick Foligno couldnt be happier.Atkinson scored twice and Johansens other linemate, Foligno, added a goal and an assist to power the Columbus Blue Jackets to a 5-2 win over the New York Rangers on Saturday night.I think we complement each other really well, Atkinson said of the Johansen-centered line. Obviously, Joey in the middle with that big frame and those skills is a big part of it. Nick and I just try to find space out there.Marko Dano added his first NHL goal and also had an assist for the Blue Jackets, who are 2-0 for the first time in five years. The game was played before a loud, sellout crowd of 18,922.That was awesome, starting with the red-carpet entrance and (there being) so many people out there, said the 19-year-old Slovakian, the 27th overall pick in the 2013 draft. That was a special moment for me, my dad watching the game from the stands. Im really happy he could see the moment when I scored my first goal.Artem Anisimov, like Atkinson, scored for the second game in a row. Fedor Tyutin, a former Ranger, had a +5 plus/minus rating to set a franchise record.Johansen, who ended his lengthy contract holdout and didnt practice until the day before the season began on Thursday, had two assists to give him three total. Scott Hartnell also had two helpers.Former Columbus captain Rick Nash picked up his third goal and Lee Stempniak also scored for the Rangers, who opened the season by splitting two road games.Anthony Duclair had two assists, also his first career NHL points, for the Rangers.With Columbus up 3-1 through two periods, Dano jammed in a rebound of Dalton Prouts shot from the point with just over 6 minutes remaining.Almost immediately, Nash scored his third goal in two games while the crowd booed loudly.Atkinson then closed the scoring with an empty-netter.At the start of the game, the energy was great, Columbus coach Todd Richards said of the raucous turnout. We did things in the game that will allow us to have success.The capacity crowd had a lot to cheer. Anisimov arrived late to the play but stepped into a one-timer from just outside the left dot to beat backup goalie Cam Talbot 6:24 in. Hartnells blind pass from the left corner set up the shot and Dano collected his first NHL point. He pointed and smiled to his father during the goal celebration.Folignos second effort made it 2-0.He wheeled from the right circle into the slot and put a shot on goal that Talbot blocked. But the rebound bounced back to Foligno, who was on all fours as he shoved it into the net.There were a lot of 50-50 pucks that they got to, Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. Was that because they were quicker than we were? Or that they wanted it more?Stempniak cut the lead in half at 5:43 of the second with a hard wrister from the right circle.But the Blue Jackets boosted the lead back to two goals through the second when Johansen, who signed a three-year, $12-million deal on Monday, whipped a shot on net off a loose puck. Foligno got a stick on it to send it to Atkinson at the doorstep, who tapped it in midway through the period.We were chasing, said New York defenceman Mark Staal. We couldnt get the puck back and when we did we just gave it back to them.Sergei Bobrovsky had 24 saves for the Blue Jackets while Talbot made 19 stops in relief of Henrik Lundqvist for the Rangers.Notes: Nash had tussled with fan favourite Bobrovsky and Matt Calvert in New Yorks 3-1 win the last time the teams met in Nationwide Arena last March. ... During the customary pregame introductions at a home opener, for an instant the Blue Jackets bench was almost as full as the ice with the injured (D Ryan Murray, C Boone Jenner, RW Nathan Horton, C Brian Gibbons and C Brandon Dubinsky) joined by healthy scratches (RW Corey Tropp, D Cody Goloubef and RW Adam Cracknell).___Follow Rusty Miller on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/RustyMillerAP Nike Air Max Rea Sverige .

Part of that is due to talent and part is due to the ballpark they play in. Yet, despite being right up there with home run leaders every season over that span, they havent been able to end their post-season drought that extends back to their last appearance in 1993. Since 2009, the Blue Jays have finished in the top five in home runs every season. 2009 was the peak year for round-trippers over the last five seasons in the junior circuit with 2,560. The Yankees led the league with 244 homers, well above the league average of 183 per team. The Blue Jays finished with 209. 2009 was the only season in the last five that the team with the most homers in the American League won the Fall Classic, as the Yankees beat the Phillies for their fifth title in 14 seasons. The Yankees also led in 2011 with 222 homers and 2012 with 245. They also hit over 200 homers every season in the last five except 2013, when they were devastated by injuries. Over the last five years, the Blue Jays have hit 209 homers in 2009 (4th), 257 in 2010 (1st) , 186 in 2011 (5th), 198 in 2012 (5th) and 185 in 2013 (4th). One team that has benefitted a little bit from a power surge has been Oakland. In 2011, the As only hit 114 homers. In 2012, they jumped to 195 (6th) in the A.L. and followed that by climbing to third in the league last season with 186. Of course, they won the American League West each of the last two campaigns. I guess what Im trying to say is that the Blue Jaays could and should sacrifice some of their power to boost the starting rotation.dddddddddddd Under new hitting coach Kevin Seitzer, the Jays are going to attempt to use the whole field and just drive the ball into the gaps as opposed to just trying to pull the ball for home runs. Trying a different approach and attempting to cut down the strikeouts cant hurt. There has been a lot of talk about home runs diminishing over the past few years. As I mentioned off the top, in 2009 there were 2,560 home runs hit. The next year, the total dropped off to 2,209 - a decrease of 351. From that point on, though, over the past three seasons, home runs are on the rise again. In 2013, the total was 2,504 in the American League - just 54 off the 2009 total. There is another pitcher out there on the rumour mill that the Blue Jays might take a run at. The Chicago Cubs are reportedly trying to get right hander Jeff Samardzijas name on an extension but if he balks, they could consider dealing him over the winter since he could become a free agent after 2015. Samardzija is a bit of a late bloomer at 28 years old. In just his second year as a full-time Cubs starter in 2013, he went 8-13 on a bad ball club with a 4.34 ERA. But hes got what everyone is looking for; durability - 213.2 innings last season - and ability to strike guys out with 214 against just 78 walks. The trouble for the Jays is that Arizona, Washington and the Pittsburgh are also rumoured to be after him, and all three appear to have deeper farm systems flush with the kind of talent the Cubs would want in return.
