(NHL) Columbus vs. New Jersey,
Money Line: -109.00 New Jersey (Home)
Result: Win
The Columbus Blue Jackets snapped a three-game skid with a 6-3 win in the first match-up of a home-and-home set against the New Jersey Devils on Saturday. The Devils must be very disappointed with their performance and I expect them to do everything in their power to execute revenge today.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Motivational - A Devils' win is absolutely crucial if the club is to stay in the race for a Wild Card spot in the East. They're currently eight points back of Detroit which holds the last wild card, and as if last night's loss to the Blue Jackets wasn't enough motivation for revenge, another loss today would mean that Columbus sweeps the five-game season series. Obviously completely unacceptable.

2. Goalscoring Woes - The Blue Jackets have been outscored 9-2 while picking up just one point through their last three games on the road. They had scored only three goals in their last three games prior to last night's break-out game.

3. X-Factor - With Sergei Bobrovsky starting in the Columbus net yesterday, the Blue Jackets will likely send out youngster Joonas Korpisalo for this contest.
