COLUMBUS -- Kirill Marchenko had two goals and an assist for the Columbus Blue Jackets in a 6-4 win against the Dallas Stars at Nationwide Arena on Tuesday. Ivan Provorov and Adam Fantilli each had a goal and an assist, and Dmitri Voronkov had two assists for the Blue Jackets (28-22-8), who have won two straight. Elvis Merzlikins made 19 saves.

Kirill Marchenko scored twice and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Dallas Stars 6-4 for their second straight win to keep them in the hunt for an Eastern Conference wild-card spot

Marchenko, who has five 3-point games this season, scored only 30 seconds into the game, the earliest in a game the Blue Jackets have scored this season. He led the Blue Jackets with nine shot attempts and had another strong scoring chance in the third that he couldn’t bury.

The Dallas Stars rolled into Columbus on Tuesday ... but for the most part we concentrate on who we are and how the Columbus Blue Jackets play the game,” coach Dean Evason said.

Hintz received the weekly honor with Tampa Bay’s Andrei Vasilevskiy (first star) and Montreal’s Nick Suzuki (third star).

With the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Dallas Stars facing off tonight and the 2025 NHL Trade Deadline only 11 days away, it’s a good time to revisit the trade history between the two clubs.

Feb. 25, 2019: Days after making notable trades with Ottawa to add forwards Matt Duchene and Ryan Dzingel, the Blue Jackets swing a pair of deals to add depth pieces, acquiring defenseman Adam McQuaid from the Rangers and goalie Keith Kinkaid from the Devils.
