NEW YORK — The Columbus Blue Jackets didn’t get discouraged after giving up the tying goal in the closing seconds of regulation. Artemi Panarin scored in the shootout and the Blue Jackets earned their third straight trip to the post-season with a 3-2 victory over the New York Rangers on Friday night. “Just stayed with it, found a way,” Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella said. The Blue Jackets close the season at Ottawa, while the Hurricanes play at Philadelphia. The Blue Jackets won 4-3 in overtime at MSG on Dec. 27 and 7-5 at home on Jan. 13.
