I understand hockey players are a different breed but one team is locked up at the top seed in the playoffs and resting starters while another is fighting to make it and need to win games to stay alive. The penalty minutes show a sizable difference as Washington has recorded 708 total penalty minutes while Columbus has recorded 631 total penalty minutes, so with the power play abilities, this is a way the Blue Jackets can neutralize that. The Capitals are having their backup goaltender, who has 13 of the team’s 19 losses. Lets back the home Columbus Blue Jackets here.
