PITTSBURGH, Pa. - Brandon Dubinsky poked a pass from Matt Calvert past a sprawled Marc-Andre Fleury with 2:17 remaining to lift the Columbus Blue Jackets to a 2-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night.

Pittsburgh's Blake Comeau turned it over and the Blue Jackets quickly pounced. Calvert fed Dubinsky as Pittsburgh's Steve Downie ran over Fleury. Dubinsky had little trouble tapping in his seventh goal of the season.

Scott Hartnell also scored for Columbus. Curtis McElhinney stopped 29 shots as the Blue Jackets won their second straight.

Evgeni Malkin picked up his 22nd goal for Pittsburgh. Fleury was brilliant at times while making 28 saves, but couldn't stop the Penguins from losing for the fourth time in their last six games.
