NHL VIP BETTING TIP: Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Philadelphia Flyers

Details:

The Columbus Blue Jackets made a great deal in the off season signing one of the best players in the league Johnny Gaudreau. Anyway, that hasn't proved to be great deal so far as they are at the bottom of the Eastern Conference with a 3-9-0 record.

The Blue Jackets have lost the last five games allowing at least 4 goals in each of those losses. They have conceded 55 goals while scoring 30 for a -25 scoring differential.

Johnny Gaudreau has scored five goals with four assists for the Blue Jackets. Jakub Voracek has one goal and five assists over the past 10 games.

The Philadelphia Flyers are 8th in the Eastern Conference with a 7-3-2 record. The Flyers have lost 3 of the last 5 games but are coming off back-to-back wins over Ottawa and St. Louis.

Travis Konecny has four goals and eight assists for the Flyers. Kevin Hayes has two goals and seven assists over the past 10 games.

Key facts

• Jakub Voracek, Justin Danforth and Adam Boqvist will not play for Columbus
• Cam Atkinson, Bobby Brink, Patrick Brown, Sean Couturier, Ryan Ellis and James Van Riemsdyk will not play for the Flyers
• Philadelphia has won 3 of the last 5 against Columbus

The Columbus Blue Jackets are the biggest disappointment so far in the season but still, it is too early to count them out. They have returned to the states after losing the last two games to the defending champions in the European trip. Columbus had 5 days to recover and will be back tonight with new energy. Johnny Gaudreau will finally step up and prove that the Blue Jackets did the right thing with signing him in the off season. Philadelphia is in the top half of the conference but are not that good. It is pretty brave to bet on the last team in the conference, but I am doing exactly that tonight with backing the bet up with the draw option.
