| PREVIEW: Blue Jackets on to Philadelphia for another Metro matchup |
| The latter was the case for the Blue Jackets on Thursday night in Nationwide Arena. New Jersey kept applying more and more pressure but Columbus battened down the hatches and never broke, escaping with a 4-2 victory over the Eastern Conference-leading Devils. New Jersey had big advantages in shot attempts (97-43), shots on goal (42-20) and high-danger chances (21-7) per Natural Stat Trick, but the Blue Jackets ended a five-game losing skid with a much-needed win. Don't expect Blue Jackets head coach Dean Evason to apologize for the two points. |

| Merzlikins stops 40, Blue Jackets hold off Devils to end 5-game skid |
| Luke Hughes cut it to 3-1 at 17:10 of the third period with Allen pulled for the extra skater, lifting the puck over a prone Merzlikins. “We have a really resilient group and obviously not the outcome that we want but for all our guys to play 60 (minutes) like that, push to the very end, is a very important thing,” Hughes said. Merzlikins was under siege after that with Allen still pulled. NOTES: Werenski extended his home point streak to 10 games (eight goals, nine assists) to tie the franchise record held by Oliver Bjorkstrand (2021-22), Cam Atkinson (2016-17) and Andrew Cassels (2002-03). |

| Devils cruising after offseason changes, visit struggling Blue Jackets |
| More than a third of the way through the 2024-25 season, the New Jersey Devils are back where they'd hoped to be in a bounce-back campaign. Winners of three straight and six of their past nine games, the Devils have vaulted to the top of the Metropolitan Division -- one point ahead of the Washington Capitals -- and second in the NHL overall. New Jersey, which finished third in the league two seasons ago with 112 points, is on pace to finish within a few points of that mark this season with 45 points through 34 games. |

| Hunt enjoying himself since trade to Blue Jackets |
| As Daemon Hunt was lacing his skates to play in his 126th game for the Iowa Wild, he was sat down by the head coach and general manager of Minnesota's AHL affiliate to tell him he had been traded. “It's been a lot more smooth than I thought it would be,” said Hunt, who was acquired from the Wild along with draft picks in a Nov. 30 deal that sent David Jiricek to Minnesota. The left-shot defenseman has played in five games thus far for the Monsters, with the team having a 2-1-2 record. |
