THE PLAY: Columbus Blue Jackets -124

NHL - Columbus Blue Jackets at San Jose Sharks

Game Thoughts: Despite letting a 4-1 lead slip away in a 5-4 OT loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday, there are some positive signs from this Blue Jackets team and some improving analytic numbers. They've gone 4-1-1 their past 6 with a couple one goal losses. They kick off a 4 game West Coast trip and with Vegas, Colorado, and Utah ahead they'll want to pick up points here. Sharks dealing with some injuries at the moment and come off a bad home loss to the Lightning on Saturday. With Greaves and Askarov as the expected goalies, that match up advantage goes to the Jackets.

The play is Columbus Blue Jackets -124
