Saturday’s matchup against the Pittsburgh Penguins will be the final 2017 preseason game for the Columbus Blue Jackets. And the CBJ are going to play this game like the regular season, it seems.
The Blue Jackets’ lineup pretty much includes everyone you’d imagine will play in a normal weekend game during the season—excluding Boone Jenner. He’s still sitting out with an undisclosed middle-body injury.
But everyone else—Nick Foligno, Artemi Panarin, Sergei Bobrovsky and even Brandon Dubinsky—will be suiting up in union blue Saturday to face the flightless birds of Pittsburgh.
