Next Wednesday night will feature a perfect scenario for the Columbus Blue Jackets, as they’ll have the opportunity to end the year on a four-game winning streak. Nevertheless, to accomplish that objective, they should defeat the New Jersey Devils at home, a scenario that doesn’t appear to be impossible when looking at the Devils’ current performance.
Despite that likely scenario for the Blue Jackets, it cannot be ignored that they still are the worst team in the Eastern Conference’s standings, but there’s only a five-point gap between them and the playoffs’ spots. With this in mind, the Blue Jackets’ motivation is expected to be strong enough to push their offense forward to emulate the performance shown during their 4-2 victory over the New York Islanders.
In the case of the New Jersey Devils, this team can be labeled as one of the biggest disappointments in the current regular season, because even though they were able to dominate the Eastern Conference at the beginning of the season, they lost all the momentum, and they look far from being competitive again. Additionally, they haven’t scored more than three goals in any of their last ten games.
