The Blue Jackets are a hot team in the NHL right now. They are enjoying a season best 8-3 mark in their last 11 games, and it has been the sharp goaltending they have received from Steve Mason that has led the surge. Mason has recorded four shutouts in the last 11 games, and that certainly makes Columbus look favorable as a dog and also the UNDER, as they are allowing just 2.3 goals a game in this stretch. Edmonton has been a sub-.500 team at home over their last 15 games, and has scored two goals or less in more than half of their last 13 on home ice. The Blue Jackets have now won seven of their last eight as an underdog and with the hot goaltending; they have played 16 of their last 23 UNDER the total. I like them here, along with the UNDER.
