Columbus Blue Jackets vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Edgar Jibran | in NHL Picks
The NHL is getting closer and closer to define the teams that will participate in the next phase of the championship in the dispute for the Stanley Cup, having teams like Vegas Golden Knights that depend on themselves to stay in the playoffs, and others like Columbus Blue Jackets, which practically from the middle of the season were completely out of competition, making it clear that next Saturday, March 22, 2024 at 20:30 Central Time will bring with it a qualified as “an uneven” duel between Vegas and Columbus.
A closer look at Vegas' performance this season shows that the reigning champions have been far from their prior year performance, occupying ranking fourth in the Pacific Division with 81 points and being the fourth worst defense with 206 goals conceded, stringing together 3 consecutive games in which they have scored 3 goals per game.
In the case of Columbus Blue Jackets, we can see a team that has offered practically nothing this season, being the last classified in the Metropolitan Division with 58 points, the worst defense with 250 goals conceded and the third worst offense with 202 goals scored. In their case it could be obvious that they are thinking on how to plan the next season.
