Columbus Blue Jackets vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction: Don't write off the Blue Jackets

Prediction for the NHL Columbus Blue Jackets vs Philadelphia Flyers match which will take place on October 13th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Columbus was at their worst last season. They finished the regular season with just 59 points, the lowest of any team in the Eastern Conference. Don't write off the Blue Jackets this season, though. The team had a promising pre-season and finished second in the Metropolitan Division with nine points.

Philadelphia was better than their opponents in the 2022/23 NHL season, but not by much. The team could not advance to the next stage, finishing third from the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings with 75 points. The Flyers had a pretty good pre-season. After six games, they had three wins and three losses, with an overall record of 15-17.

This pairing has no clear favorite, but we bet on a successful start for Columbus. Yes, the Jackets had a terrible last NHL season, but they are in good shape now and will play in their arena. The Blue Jackets' recent games have been productive. A total of 35 goals have been scored in their last five games.
