Some might think that Columbus is catching the defending champion Golden Knights at the right time. I beg to differ. Off their most lopsided loss of the season and playing the final game of a disappointing road trip, the Knights will be entirely serious about returning to form on Monday. Columbus is a great place to get back on track The Blue Jackets have the fewest points (50) in the Eastern Conference and they have only 10 wins in their 30 home games.

Though the Blue Jackets are off a win, it came against Chicago, the worst team in the league. They won't be ready for the intensity which the Knights are going to bring to the table. The Knights won 7-2 the last time these teams played. They were laying -325 for that game. This price is expensive but not nearly so much as that. Lay the price as the Knights will not be denied.
