Columbus is performing this preseason as if they will take a swing at the playoffs in the regular season. In six games played, they managed to earn eight points with four clean wins - 3:0 and 3:1 over St. Louis, 8:4 over Washington and 6:3 over Columbus. Of course, it didn't come without loses - 1:6 from the Sabres and 2:3 from the Capitals. With such indicators Dean Evason can confidently state that the Jackets are ready for the new NHL season.

Pittsburgh, on the other hand, was not as convincing. Four points earned the team for five games played, so they can be content with only sixth position in the table of the Metropolitan Division. Of the achievements only victories over Ottawa and Detroit (5:2 and 5:1). In others, the Penguins were weaker - 3:7 and 2:3 against Buffalo and 1:2 against the Red Wings.

Columbus approaches the game as a favorite, which we completely agree with. The Jackets have been playing more consistently throughout the preseason, and if they are successful, they can move up to the first position, thus winning the preseason. This will help Columbus believe in themselves and their strength in the regular season. In general, we suggest betting on a clean win for the Blue Jackets.
