With the win, the Columbus Blue Jackets now sit alone on top of the Metropolitan Division after 16 games played. Oliver Bjorkstrand was able to find the back of the net for his first of the season leaving Riley Nash as the last regular day to day player still searching for his first of the season.
Nick Foligno with the crafty between the legs backwards pass is something we’ve come to see from the captain’s skill set the past few years, and we saw it pay off in a big way for the Jackets to take the 1-0 lead.
