A rematch of a 2018 Stanley Cup playoff matchup was for first place in the Metropolitan Division. The Columbus Blue Jackets, whether they say it or not, will certainly had revenge on their mind as they traveled to the nation’s Capital and took down Washington.
Beyond revenge for the first round bounce they were given, the Jackets also were battling for first place in the Metro Division. The New York Islanders loss in Tampa two nights means that either the Jackets have jumped the Islanders with the win which would give the Jackets 19 points.
