Blue Jackets 6-2 last 8 vs Metro, won 2 straight, must-win mode. Home ice edge – 24-10-5 at Nationwide vs Caps 24-11-2 on road. Greaves likely in net – .914 SV%, 39 saves vs BUF. No Merzlikins, but Greaves earned trust.
Caps just played OT Thurs – travel + early puck drop = fade spot. Ovechkin may rest, Chychrun still out. Lindgren .893 SV%, beatable. Caps gave up 3.8 GA last 5 – defense slipping bad at the wrong time.
Columbus offense pushing pace – 30.2 shots/game last 5. PP waking up – 28.6% over that stretch. Jenner, Werenski, Marchenko producing. At home, full desperation mode, solid goalie – love the spot.
