Artemi Panarin scored the only goal in the shootout Friday night for the Columbus Blue Jackets, who clinched the last open NHL playoff spot by edging the host New York Rangers, 3-2.

Patrick Kane scored twice, and Chicago got goals from five different players as the Blackhawks rolled to a 6-1 thumping of the visiting Dallas Stars on Friday, keeping their Central Division rivals from clinching the first wild-card spot in the upcoming Stanley Cup playoffs.

Korbinian Holzer scored his first NHL goal in more than two years, and rookie Sam Steel also tallied as the Anaheim Ducks concluded a disappointing season with a 5-2 home-ice victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Friday night.
