Columbus Blue Jackets at Chicago Blackhawks Preview & Picks
Columbus are tipped to pick up the victory in the ‘Windy City’ tonight.
The Blue Jackets are simply the better team in better form right now, and the Blackhawks are not helped by the fact they played – and lost – in Pittsburgh just last night.
- Columbus Blue Jackets are 7-1 in their last 8 games
- Chicago Blackhawks are 2-7 in their previous 9 games
- Columbus Blue Jackets have won each of the last 5 meetings
- The Over has not cashed in any of Chicago’s previous 7 games
Head To Head
- Chicago Blackhawks lead the all-time series 59-35-9
- Columbus Blue Jackets won 5-1 when the two teams last met in February 2025
Columbus Blue Jackets Form
Columbus head to Chicago on an excellent run of form, having won seven of their last eight games and each of the last three.
The Blue Jackets experienced a rough run earlier this month as they lost four consecutive games – their joint worst run of the season so far.
They snapped that skid with a 3-2 overtime win in Utah though, and then backed that up by beating Calgary 5-3, Vancouver 4-1 and Pittsburgh 4-3.
Columbus failed to make it five-in-a-row as they fell 4-1 at home to Ottawa, but they have responded strongly to that loss.
The Blue Jackets reeled off three straight wins at home, beating Dallas 1-0, Tampa Bay 8-5 and Philadelphia 5-3.
Chicago Blackhawks Form
Chicago come into this game in miserable form, having lost seven of their previous nine games and each of the last four.
The Blackhawks enjoyed a solid start to 2026 as they won five of their first six games of the year, but it has largely been all downhill since then.
They lost three straight games at home as they were beaten 4-1 by Edmonton, 3-1 by Calgary and 5-2 by Boston.
Chicago rallied to beat Winnipeg 2-0 at home and Carolina 4-3 on the road, but they have not won since then.
The Blackhawks lost 2-1 to Tampa Bay and 5-1 to Florida at home, before heading out on the road to lose 4-3 at Minnesota and 6-2 in Pittsburgh.
Verdict
These are two teams in very different form right now, and we have to go with the hotter hand.
Columbus have had Chicago’s number in recent seasons, and we expect that trend to continue here.
