Blue Jackets @ Kings – 10:30 PM EDT
Raise your hand if you had the Columbus Blue Jackets beating the Blackhawks and the Stars to get back to .500 on the season.
No one? Okay, now that that’s settled. We’re in unexpected territory!
The Columbus Blue Jackets have shocked many (certainly including myself) by climbing to 2-2-0 on the season, knocking off the Blackhawks and last year’s Western Conference point leaders, the Dallas Stars. Tonight, Columbus looks to keep that momentum rolling as they head to Los Angeles to take on the injury-struck Kings.
The Kings, winners of their last two as well, have done so despite shuffling goaltenders due to a rash of injuries.
