Ottawa vs Columbus: prediction for the NHL game
The Senators and the Blue Jackets square off in the National Hockey League on Wednesday night. Below you will find our prediction for this game.
Command Analysis
Ottawa Senators
CanadaOttawa remain one of the main outsiders in the Eastern Conference. The team haven't been able to win more than two games in a row. For instance, after victories over St. Louis (4:1) and Seattle (4:3 ОТ), the Senators lost to Chicago (3:6) and Arizona at home (3:5).
The Senators are prone to defensive problems. They almost always concede in the last 20 minutes and on average allow three goals per game. They aren't successful even at their home court and won only eight home games in regulation this season.
Columbus Blue Jackets
USAColumbus sit in 9th place in the Eastern Conference table, nine points behind the top-8. They are unlikely to qualify for the playoffs, but this is still a good result for the Blue Jackets.
Recently, the Jackets finally broke their losing streak and defeated Minnesota in a shootout (3:2 SO). In the following game, they built on their success and beat Vegas (6:4). Columbus stick to an open brand of hockey and often concede more than three goals per game.
