Last place Columbus doesn't put the puck in the net much, at No. 27 in the NHL in goals scored. We saw that the last game in a 5-0 home loss to Colorado. The UNDER is 3-0-1 in the Blue Jackets’ last four road games and they are 32-15-4 UNDER the total in their last 51 games as an underdog of +200 or greater. This offense has also seen major changes the last few days. On Wednesday the Blue Jackets traded center Antoine Vermette to Phoenix for a 2012 second-round pick. On Thursday they sent second-leading goal scorer Jeff Carter to Los Angeles for defenseman Jack Johnson and a conditional first-round pick. The Blue Jackets called up RW Cam Atkinson earlier in the day, and he made his first appearance with the team since Nov. 5. Don't look for the offense to bust out against a Pittsburgh defense that is No. 11 in the league in goals allowed and third in penalty killing. They come off a 2-0 win over the Rangers and the UNDER is 4-0-1 in the Penguins’ last five vs. the Western Conference. Play Columbus/Pittsburgh UNDER the total.
