Game #26 Recap: Blue Jackets Can’t Hang on Against Islanders, Lose 3-2

Up 2-0 midway through Saturday night’s game against the New York Islanders, the Columbus Blue Jackets allowed three straight goals to fall in a losing road effort, 3-2.

Markus Hannikainen and Pierre-Luc Dubois scored for the CBJ and Sergei Bobrovsky made 24 saves—several of them classic big Bob stops—in the loss.

Saturday’s contest marked the first Islanders regular-season game at Nassau Coliseum since 2015, so you know the building was primed for any spark the Islanders could give them—and they got it, with two goals in the second and a game-winner in the third.
