The Blue Jackets’ losing streak hit five games tonight with the loss to the New York Islanders by a final score of 5-2.. The Jackets’ offensive stars were silent tonight against the Isles tight-checking game. The only bright spot for the Jackets was their bottom-six — the fourth line especially. Emil Bemstrom and Justin Danforth had the only goals for the Jackets while leading the team in CF%. Elvis Merzlikins had his strong moments in this game, keeping the Jackets in it at times, but in the end his glove side failed him, and he had yet another game with four goals allowed.
