With seven games remaining, including tonight's final matchup of the year with the hurricanes, they have already set franchise records for wins with 49, six more than their 43 in 2013-14, and points with 105, 12 more than they've ever had before. Their goaltender, Sergei Bobrovsky, is the odds-on favorite for the Vezina Trophy. They are getting contributions from all over the lineup, with 11 players – also a franchise record – into double digits in goal scoring.
Since their 16-game winning streak ended in January, the Blue Jackets have gone 22-14-3 - still a 99-point pace, but not nearly as hot as they were during the streak.
