Two of the weakest teams in the NHL Metropolitan Division will clash next Saturday at 06:00 pm CST, and even when the bookmakers are putting Philadelphia Flyers as the big favorites to win, it’s a fact that Columbus Blue Jackets mustn’t be discarded as they recently cut off with their awful streak of consecutive losses.
When looking closely at both teams’ performance, Philadelphia Flyers currently have a streak of 3 losses in a row, being worth noting that their defensive performance has been terrible, as they received 4 or more goals per game. Nonetheless, their offensive performance hasn’t been that bad, as they scored 100 goals throughout the season, but they still need to increase their effectiveness.
On Columbus Blue Jackets’ case, this team is practically suffering in the same way they did during the prior season, so there aren’t real expectations of winning a playoff spot by the end of the regular season. Even so, they demonstrated a strong mentality after defeating New Jersey Devils 2 days before the kickoff of this game, a game in which Sean Monahan was the MVP with 2 goals and 1 assist.
