The Columbus Blue Jackets wrap-up the road trip tonight against the St. Louis Blues on the NHL Network. This is the second and final meeting of the season for the former Central Division foes of the 2023-2024 season. Also, this is the final game before the All Star Break for the struggling Jackets, who become one of 6 teams at the time of writing to have played 50 games before the break. More rested second half ahead.
The Blues are riding a five game hot streak into tonight. Columbus is riding losing three of the last four on the road. First game without Adam Fantilli from his cut leg. Check-in will be when the club returns to Columbus. Elvis v Binnington. Imagine that trade or fight.
