Labatt Recap: Bjorkstrand, Blue Jackets defeat Devils


Oliver Bjorkstrand

“It’s nice to get the first goal and then one more after that,” Bjorkstrand said after the game. “I feel really good right now. Torts was putting me out there a lot (to try to get a third goal) and all the guys were trying to get the puck to me, so it’s nice to get all that support.”

After making his NHL debut on Thursday against the Red Wings, Bjorkstrand said he felt more comfortable tonight. He recorded six shots on goal and said he had a “good feeling” all night.

“I feel like after the first game, I realized a few times when I had the puck I threw it away too fast and I had to feel a little more comfortable with the puck,” Bjorkstrand said.
