After three excellent games on the California swing of their roadtrip resulted in a whopping one (1) point in the standings, the Columbus Blue Jackets looked to get back into the win column against the Seattle Kraken. Here’s how it went down.
First Period
The Jackets came out absolutely buzzing, and didn’t really stop all period. They consistently controlled the puck and pace of play, and great defense kept Seattle from recording a shot on goal for the first eight minutes of the game. Jack Johnson had a wide open net early that went off a crossbar, and Yegor Chinakhov had a dangerous 2-on-1 chance broken up by Jamie Oleksiak.
