Blue Jackets rolling – Preds stuck in freefall mode lately. Nashville's offense is ice-cold – just 1.6 GPG over last 5, worst in the NHL at 2.52 per game. Columbus rolling at 4.3 GPG in last 3. Werenski + Marchenko combining for 138 pts. CBJ dropped 7 on Vancouver. Jackets pushing hard for playoff life right now.
Columbus pressing the attack – top 10 in SOG per game. Nashville gave up 3+ in 5 of last 6, struggling to contain puck movement. Jackets average 29.0 SOG/G, rank 10th in volume. Merzlikins with 24 wins, .895 SV%. CBJ still alive for Wildcard – high urgency, locked-in energy on home ice tonight.
Columbus owns edge across the board – and it shows. Jackets: 75 pts in 72 games, 10th in East. Preds: 62 in 74, near bottom in West. CBJ lost the last meeting in OT – revenge spot here. Jackets healthier, hungrier, and clicking offensively. Expect a statement win with playoff hopes still alive.
