Luckily the Blue Jackets play five games against the Pittsburgh Penguins this season, because that means they have one more shot at beating them! The Pens have won all four match-ups so far this season – in Columbus, in Pittsburgh, it doesn’t matter where they play, the Pens have the Jackets number this season. The last meeting between the two teams is in Columbus, and it needs to be a victory for the Blue Jackets.
The Penguins have beat McElhinney three times this season, and Bobrovsky once – a total of 14 goals have been scored on Columbus. Marc-Andre Fleury and back-up goalie Jeff Zatkoff both have two wins for Pittsburgh and have only been scored on a combined six times. Sidney Crosby leads the Penguins with six points, while there is a four way tie between Johansen, MacKenzie, Nikitin, and Johnson with two points.
I WANT NOTHING MORE THAN COLUMBUS TO CRUSH PITTSBURGH IN THEIR FINAL MEETING THIS SEASON!
