The Columbus Blue Jackets traveled to what is typically known as the Sunshine State (though not this week - best wishes to all affected by Hurricane Michael, may you and your loved ones stay safe) to take on the Florida Panthers. The Panthers, playing just their second game of the season, hosted their home opener to their team’s 25th season in franchise history.
In Blue Jackets notes, the team started Joonas Korpisalo on the first game of the road trip. The lineup, outside of the crease, remained unchanged from the team that beat Colorado 5-2 on Tuesday night in Columbus.
