San Jose Sharks vs Columbus Blue Jackets Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Edgar Jibran | in NHL Picks
The NHL schedule for next Thursday January 16th will have 5 games to be disputed at 06:00 pm CST, and even when the clash between Columbus Blue Jackets and San Jose Sharks isn’t one of the most attractive for the ice hockey fans, they’ll definitely offer a spectacular game. In this regard, the Blue Jackets’ recovery has allowed them to get into playoffs’ spots, but they’re forced to win this game to avoid falling from the qualification spots.
In addition, it must be noted that Columbus Blue Jackets are the only team that has won its last 5 games in the Eastern Conference, radically converting into the third best offensive line after scoring 152 goals throughout the season. With this in mind, the Blue Jackets are expected to tie the regular season series with the Sharks after losing their first confrontation last November (2-1).
On San Jose Sharks’ case, this team is still the worst in the Pacific Division with only 34 points summed throughout the season, however it must be noted that they were able to cut off a streak of 3 losses in a row after their most recent victory over Detroit Red Wings (3-6). Even though, they still are the worst defensive in the Western Conference after conceding 161 goals during the season.
