Columbus Blue Jackets vs Pittsburgh Penguins Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Edgar Jibran | in NHL Picks
Next Thursday March 28th, 2024, the NHL is going to bring a calendar full of activity, where one of the most interesting matches is going to be the duel between Pittsburgh Penguins and Columbus Blue Jackets, teams that belong to the Metropolitan Division, but that are not competing as expected during this season, so they practically don’t have any chances of qualifying to the playoffs round.
Checking on both teams’ performance, Pittsburgh Penguins is in the penultimate spot of the Metropolitan Division with 72 points, where they were able to break a negative streak of 3 consecutive defeats after their most recent victory over Carolina Hurricanes (4-1), which truly was an unexpected result for this team.
On the other side, Columbus Blue Jackets is the worst team of the Metropolitan Division with only 58 points, being the only team that has lost its 5 last matches. Also, Columbus has a very bad defensive performance, as they are the worst defense in the division with 266 received goals, so, as they cannot compete for anything during the current season, they must start thinking about the next one.
