We’re really confident now, and we want to keep it going.”The Blue Jackets are trying to get to the playoffs in consecutive years for the first time in franchise history, and for most of the game it looked as if Detroit would put a crimp in their plans.”It’s a resilient group that we have, and we’re never out of the fight,” said forward Cam Atkinson, who scored twice for Columbus.Sonny Milano also had a goal for the Blue Jackets, who have won 13 of 15.
