Blue Jackets vs. Capitals Preview
The Blue Jackets take on the Washington Capitals on Saturday night and look to replicate the way they played for a majority of the game against Tampa Bay.
The Jackets played a game with the Lightning that included three periods that had completely separate identities. In the end, it worked out with a 4-2 win, and it's much better than playing a game where all three periods go against them, which seems to happen a lot. Against the Caps, the CBJ need to play three solid periods to beat Washington at home.
The Caps are coming in having been shut out by the New York Islanders on Thursday night. They had won the previous three games before the loss to NYI against a wide variety of teams. They beat the high-flying Devils, the Wild, and the lowly Sharks.
