The Columbus Blue Jackets lost to the Florida Panthers on Saturday night by a score of 5-2. It’s hard to sugarcoat a three goal loss, though I do want to lead out by pointing out something that went well: the Jackets had a season-high 47 shots on goal, and per Natural Stat trick, they led the expected goal battle 3.48-2.82. So what went wrong? Two former Blue Jackets made the difference.
Bob’s Night
Sergei Bobrovsky was celebrated before the game for reaching the 500 game milestone last season. It’s appropriate the celebration came against the franchise whose uniform he wore for 374 of those games.
