I'm taking Blue Jackets ML because Tampa Bay arrives on a back-to-back without Brayden Point.
Columbus had Wednesday off after playing Florida at home Tuesday. The Lightning played in Buffalo Wednesday, then had to travel for this game.
Point had 16 points in 17 games before his injury. Jon Cooper also expects defenseman Erik Cernak to miss Thursday after leaving the Buffalo game.
Columbus put 38 shots on Florida Tuesday. Against a defense facing a quick turnaround and likely missing Cernak, I expect the Blue Jackets to generate enough offense for a home win.
