ABOUT THE BLUE JACKETS

Hey there, time traveller!

Columbus will be playing the second night of back-to-back games when meeting the Jets tonight. The Jackets played Friday night in Washington.

The Jackets were 2-1 under new coach John Tortorella going into the game against the Caps, having beaten Colorado and New Jersey in the last week. That raised the season’s mark to 2-8-0.

Leading scorer C Ryan Johansen has six points in eight games but had missed the last two due to illness. He was back to practice Thursday and was expecting to play today. He was benched for part of Tortorella’s debut last week.

C Boone Jenner had six goals in the first 10 games to lead the team.

No. 1 goalie Sergei Bobrovsky’s numbers through the first 10 games aren’t pretty: 30 goals against, 3.99 goals against average, .864 save percentage.
