  • Columbus Blue Jackets are 2-7 in their last 9 games
  • 5 of Columbus' last 6 defeats have been by at least 2 goals

Columbus Blue Jackets Form

Columbus enter this matchup in poor form, having lost back-to-back games and seven of the last nine.

The Blue Jackets started 2024 with a 4-1 defeat to Boston, and although they rebounded quickly to beat Philadelphia via a shootout, they have been unable to find consistency.

They were beaten 4-3 in overtime by Minnesota, and then lost 5-0 in Winnipeg and 7-4 to Seattle before briefly stopping the rot with a shootout win over Vancouver.

Columbus failed to build on that as they were beaten 4-1 at home by New Jersey, and they then lost by the same score when they started this road trip in Edmonton.

The Blue Jackets avoided a third straight loss with a 5-2 victory in Calgary, only to then lose 5-4 in overtime in Vancouver and 4-2 at Seattle.

St Louis Blues Form

St Louis come into this game on a five-game win streak that has seen them win each of their last three games in overtime.

The Blues went on a three-game losing skid a couple of weeks back as they were beaten 4-3 by Boston, 4-2 by Philadelphia and 5-2 in Washington.

They avoided a fourth consecutive loss when they beat the Capitals 3-0 at home, and that sparked the turnaround in fortunes.

St Louis followed up that victory with a 4-3 win in Calgary, and they have been winning close games since then.

The Blues have won their last three games 4-3 in overtime, beating Vancouver and Seattle on the road before returning home to down Los Angeles.

Verdict

St Louis are the team in better form heading into this one, so we are going with the hot hand here.
