The Columbus Blue Jackets will host the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday night, looking to continue their current six-game winning streak. This game marks the final matchup for both teams before the upcoming Olympic break.
Columbus has been in strong form recently, having won 10 of their last 11 games. They enter Wednesday’s game following a 3-0 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday in Newark, New Jersey. This game will also be the second of back-to-back contests for the Blue Jackets.
**Why this matters**
Maintaining momentum before the Olympic break is important for both teams as they aim to secure playoff positioning. For the Blue Jackets, extending their winning streak could further boost their confidence and standings. Meanwhile, the Blackhawks will look to disrupt Columbus’s run and gain valuable points heading into the mid-season pause.
