A week ago, things were looking rather bleak for the Columbus Blue Jackets. And they haven’t lost since. The Blue Jackets scored three goals in the first period and Artemi Panarin had four assists on the night as the Jackets defeated the Predators 5-2. Sergei Bobrovsky made 23 saves.
Thursday’s best line, the fourth line, of Nick Foligno, Riley Nash, and Brandon Dubinsky started things off. But it was Cam Atkinson, Artemi Panarin, and Matt Duchene getting the club on the board fifty seconds in, with Atkinson getting his 40th.
