The Blue Jackets will look to snap a 5-game losing skid tonight at home, as they host the upstart Anaheim Ducks.
It has been a tough early season for the 5th Line. The Jackets have stumbled out of the gate, with just one regulation win in the last calendar month. They currently sit dead last in the Eastern Conference.
Meanwhile, we're seeing a team who was in a similar rebuild begin to really take off. The Ducks have been one of the NHL's most pleasant surprises so far this season. Good for them.
The Opponent
The Ducks entered their rebuild a little bit sooner than the Blue Jackets.
