The Columbus Blue Jackets return home for the second half of back to back games. This contest is the last one for the month of February, and is against the Carolina Hurricanes. Puckdrop for this game is at 7P and is available on Hulu and ESPN+.

For this Leap Day, we are also getting Military Appreciation night for the serviced individuals in the crowd and in the pregame festivities. Wonderful night.

This is their second meeting of the season of four, with the last game between the teams being in late November (the 26th to be exact).

This will also be the first time Columbus faces former goalie Spencer Martin, after being claimed off waivers just before the all star break.

New lineups for the boys in military and union blue as KJ got injured. Texier draws in on the third line. Tarasov in the crease.
