NHL Daily: Morning Discussion
The Columbus Blue Jackets are still winning. Tonight, the Blue Jackets will take on the Washington Capitals in hopes that the team will continue their winning streak. Currently tied for second place with most consecutive wins of 16, the Jackets are hoping to tie the first place record of 17 set by the Penguins in 1992-93.
To match the record, the Blue Jackets will have to win game 17 against the Capitals tonight. The Jackets have defeated Washington in both games they’ve faced them so far this season, so many would assume that tonight would be no different. The Caps have won their last three matchups, but can their play be strong enough to stop the recently unstoppable team?
If the Jackets do grab the 17th win, they’ll need one more to set a new record. If the 17th game is won, their possible 18th win will take place on Saturday against the New York Rangers on home ice. The Rangers have fallen victim to up-and-down play as of late, but will they rally to defeat the strong play the Jackets will throw at them?
What do you think? Do you think the Jackets will remain victorious and end the weekend with a new record, or do you think the Caps or the Rangers will rally their play to do the seemingly impossible?
