Game Time: 7PM

Watch/Listen: NESN/98.5 The Sports Hub

Location: Columbus, Ohio


The Boston Bruins have gone from Minnesota, to Detroit, and are now in Columbus where they will face the Blue Jackets tonight. The Bruins are coming off of a 6-5 loss (Fun Fact: The Bruins have allowed 19 goals in 4 games) against the Red Wings while Columbus have won 6 of their last 8.

Tonight's game will be goal tending versus goal scoring. One goal scorer and one goal tender in particular, Brad Marchand and Joonas Korpisalo, respectively. Marchand has scored a goal in 12 of the last 13 games and has 7 straight goals. Meanwhile, in the Columbus net, rookie goalie Joonas Korpisalo is 8-1-2 with a 1.94 GAA. It will be interesting to see who can out perform the other.
