Well, that could have gone better.

The Blue Jackets fell in a lackluster 3-1 game at the Predators on Thursday night to open their season. The new look second line with Domi, Foligno, and Atkinson bombed and was broken up in the third period. David Savard and Vladislav Gavrikov continued their trend of looking slow and poorly positioned that started in the Toronto bubble.
