Columbus Blue Jackets (5-6-2, 12 points, 7th Metropolitan, 14th East)
at
Anaheim Ducks (4-7-2, 10 points, 7th Pacific, 15th West)
Let’s not mince words. The Jackets need to right the ship. They’ve had stretches of good play, but the defense has been inconsistent, and the offense has dried up. Tonight, they’ll face a team that has struggled to score and possess the puck. Unfortunately, Anaheim’s goaltending is excellent when Dostal is in the net.
Player to Watch
Dmitri Voronkov
Vronk was one of the better forwards against the Kings. He also broke through with his first goal of the season. The big Russian returning to form can only mean good things for the Jackets.
Jackets Notes
The Jackets claimed the former first-round righty defenseman. As a result, it wouldn’t be shocking to see Jiricek sent to Cleveland.
