Saturday, December 13: Pittsburgh Penguins @ Columbus Blue Jackets
December 13th is the first Jackets vs. Penguins game of the 2014-15 season, and it’s in Columbus. The first playoff rematch on a Saturday in Columbus should be a great game. It was a disappointing end to a great season and awesome playoff run, and many people have said they felt the Jackets could have beat the Penguins this season. This game will be the first chance they’ll have to prove that the can do just that.
Playoff rematches are always fun, the only problem is we have to wait so long for this one. Mid-December is a long time, but hopefully it means the Jackets will be in a position to give the fans a great game and take one back from the Penguins.
