The Columbus Blue Jackets are rolling into Philadelphia tonight to play a team that wants to finish the season strong. On a high note and they have been playing better hockey. The Flyers are 5-3-2 in their last 10 and the Jackets are 6-4. The difference here could be goaltending. The Flyers will likely go with Sam Ersson, who is good and played fine in their last overtime loss. Will he play his best game, I think so, but even his best games mean one or two goals you wonder if he could have played differently or better. The Jackets are going with the hot hand. Jet Greaves who has won three in a row. He was in the AHL and now he’s back in the NHL and he seems different. At 24, he’s only played 19 games in the NHL. I’ve seen the Flyers pull out some weird wins before. They’ve played strong games against the Capitals and Stars in losses. They could do it because they’re trying to finish strong and interim coach Brad Shaw has been a breath of fresh air for the players. Never think something is all sewn up. This is sports and this is why they play the games. I think the Blue Jackets will win and so does Brendan Gallagher
