Thursday NHL Pick

The Columbus Blue Jackets have gone cold, losing 4 in a row, and that’s not good when you are entering the playoffs. Tonight they will host a team that has been eliminated from playoff contention but has won 5 straight, the Winnipeg Jets. The Jets have had success against the Blue Jackets, going 4-1 in the last 5 meetings, but the Blue Jackets won the last contest in Winnipeg, 5-3, on December 29th. Columbus has the edge in offense, defense, penalty kill, power play, face-offs, discipline and goaltending. I like the Blue Jackets’ chances to right the ship tonight.

Tonight’s pick:

Columbus Blue Jackets
