At the end of last month, Columbus was looking pretty great. They even managed to record 11 points in six games, which was one of the best numbers in the conference at the time. The Jackets can't perform at this level. In the last ten games, the Blue Jackets have registered only two wins and suffered eight defeats, with a total score of 26:38. Thus, the Jackets have dropped to 14th position in the East standings with 29 points.

New Jersey took advantage of the two losses of Washington and took the leading position in the standings of the Eastern Conference. Recall, in the last three games the Devils without problems earned points - 3:1 over Los Angeles, 4:1 over Chicago and 4:1 over St. Louis. Thus, the Devils have 45 points, which is only one more than Washington. So in the upcoming game, New Jersey must do everything possible to win, otherwise they may lose first place.

Bookmakers have written off the hosts, with which we completely agree. Columbus does not inspire confidence at all, having suffered five defeats in a row. New Jersey on the background of the upcoming opponent looks very good, in addition, in the Eastern Conference table the Devils are trying to maintain a leading position, so with the underdog will not neglect points. Based on this, we suggest not to think of anything and bet on a clean win for New Jersey.
