Last we saw the Columbus Blue Jackets, they lost a weird game with an ugly score, 7-2 to Washington. Tonight they responded with a 5-4 win that left St. Louis fans singing...erm...some kind of sad music. Funeral dirge? Yeah, that sounds right.
The really impressive thing is the scoring came from all parts of the lineup. It wasn't just guys like Patrik Laine, though of course he had another goal and also an assist.
The game started with a goal from the checking line, with Emil Bemstrom tapping in a perfect feed from Eric Robinson.
