He had two assists in eight games for the Stars in spot duty.Hes now taking regular shifts for the Blue Jackets (15-16-3).Theres more confidence shooting the puck and making plays, he said. Its a matter of an opportunity where Im playing a lot and building confidence and as a result Im having success.Connauton assisted on the first two Columbus goals by Scott Hartnell. Then Connauton made it 3-1 at 6:32 of the second period on a long shot that goaltender Niklas Svedberg could not pick up.I lost sight of it just before he shot it, Svedberg said.

Things like that, he said, Im going to spend most of the time in front of the net. Thats what I did on those two goals.Columbus backup goalie Curtis McElhinney made 26 saves in place of Sergei Bobrovsky, who did not play because of a stomach virus.It was certainly unexpected but its one of those opportunities that when it presents itself you want to take advantage of it, McElhinney said. Anytime you get the goal support it helps take the pressure off the goalie. That was nice to see.Hartnell said that was the least the Blue Jackets could do for McElhinney, who improved to 2-6-1 this season.We owed (McElhinney) a big effort, Hartnell said. At the beginning of the year we hung him out to dry a lot of times.We did all the little things well tonight. We blocked shots. We stayed out of the box for the most part and we were able to finish and get a lead early and not look back.Svedberg stopped 12 of 15 shots before being pulled for Tuukka Rask, who also had 12 saves.NOTES:Columbus goalie Anton Forsberg was on emergency recall from Springfield of the American Hockey League and did not count against the 23-man roster.
