Community Picks: Columbus 0% vs Arizona 0%

Even though the Jackets are talented, it appears as though these peculiar situations with Artemi Panarin and Sergei Bobrovsky are starting to wear them down. Columbus hasn't won a game since Jan. 15.

John Tortorella probably won't call Thursday a “no-show” performance from the Columbus Blue Jackets, but when it comes to the standings, they still have nothing to show for it. When you take a step back, just about everything is painful about Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Winnipeg Jets, which extends the Blue Jackets' losing streak to four games (all in regulation). During warm-ups, All-Star forward Cam Atkinson was struck with a wayward puck off of a crossbar, the kind of freak accident that might inspire someone to gripe about players warming up without helmets (looks at Patric Hornqvist), but Atkinson had his lid on.
