Jackets Cruise Past Blackhawks
The Columbus Blues Jackets beat the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday 7-3. Yes, you read that correctly, the Columbus Blue Jackets won.
They didn't just win though, they won in a fun, crowd-pleasing way. They jumped out early on Chicago and never looked back. It will be much easier to just show you who scored as opposed to describing it.
Courtesy CBJ appThe Blue Jackets even scored a power-play goal when Boone Jenner scored his 10th of the season. They had shots on the power play, which has been scarce. The PK was perfect, shutting down all four Chicago tries. They did give up a goal to Connor Bedard, but at least they didn't let him beat them.
All in all, it was a great game for the Jackets and they were able to stop the bleeding for now.
