Blue Jackets 4, Flyers 3: OT loss completes futility against Columbus originally appeared on nbcsportsphiladelphia.com COLUMBUS, Ohio - It didn't matter which goalie the Flyers had in net against the Blue Jackets, all that mattered was who was in net for Columbus. Sergei Bobrovsky beat the Flyers for the fourth time this season with a 4-3 overtime decision Thursday night, as the Blue Jackets completed a season sweep of the orange and black.

It's been a day of tough news for prominent Edmonton Oilers draft picks – one former, and one many believe will inevitably leave, too.

Up until a three-and-a-half minute question and answer with the media after the Toronto Maple Leafs robbed the Edmonton Oilers of whatever was left of their soul on Wednesday night in a 6-2 triumph, John Tavares was largely insulated ahead of the one matchup this season that will cast the brightest spotlight on him. Scheduled optimally on the second half of a back-to-back — with travel included, no less — and at the end of the busiest month of the season with games being played every other night throughout February, the collective focus for Tavares and the Maple Leafs had to be — and for his part, fortunately was — elsewhere until less than 24 hours before his long-awaited return to Long Island, and the franchise with which he starred and left behind after nine seasons. For his part versus the Oilers, Tavares didn't seem too distracted, scoring once and posting a primary assist on Andreas Johnsson's second goal. Continue to Article

The playoff push has already started for the Pittsburgh Penguins and they scored a huge victory on Tuesday night with a gutsy 5-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. It helped move the Penguins back into the top-eight in the Eastern Conference — for now — and came on a night where they were badly shorthanded on the back end and were playing one of the teams they are in a fierce fight with for a playoff spot … and one that just pushed all of its chips to the center of the table in a quest for a deep playoff run. Coming out of that situation with two points was massive. Continue to Article
