The Columbus Blue Jackets conclude their seasonal trips to Canada with one last battle against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Puckdrop is at 7pm.

Toronto is a fully loaded team ready to win, and it is cup or bust for them. No general manager signed after this season. Future picks moving out for now assets. Lots of expiring player contracts. This is it.

As the injury illness bug continues to float and sting the Blue Jackets, there is reinforcements back in the battalion. Jack Roslovic and Adam Boqvist return. Jet Graves is in the pipes for his debut.
