TV: FDSNOH; Radio: 93.3 FM
Columbus Blue Jackets (22-17-7, 51 points, 4th Metro, 8th East)
at
New York Islanders (18-20-7, 43 points, 8th Metro, 15th East)
The winning streak came to an end on Saturday, but the Blue Jackets could continue their point streak to 8 of 8 or 9 of 10 with a post-regulation win tonight. Will anyone in Columbus be watching? Let’s find out!
Player to Watch
Anders Lee
Am I picking Lee because he’s the Islanders captain, or because he’s a former Notre Dame player? Who’s to say!
Into his mid-30s, Lee continues to be a formidable foe, with this 9th season of at least 20 goals already under his belt.
Jackets Notes
The Blue Jackets are 9-3-2 in games vs. Metropolitan Division opponents this season ,,, Despite taking a loss on Saturday, Daniil Tarasov earned his first career NHL shutout on Saturday night vs. the Rangers.
