Blues vs. Blue Jackets Pick
Money line pick for Blues vs. Blue Jackets
- Blue Jackets ML -122 (4 units)
Columbus is coming off a big win over Toronto and should continue that success at home against the Blues here. The Blue Jackets should start Greaves, who has been solid in the net, while St. Louis has some key injuries to their offense, which will hinder their offense and help Columbus get a big win. Meanwhile, Binnington has struggled this season, and the Blue Jackets' offense is hot, so take Columbus at home.
Over/Under pick for Blues vs. Blue Jackets
- Under 6.5 goals -122 (4 units)
The under is a good spot here as 6.5 goals is a lot, especially with these two offenses. St. Louis' injuries to their offensive stars like Thomas and Neighbours will hinder their offense and limit the scoring. Columbus, meanwhile, has played well defensively as Greaves will be the key reason for the under hitting as the Blue Jackets should get a 3-1, 3-2 type of win here.
