The Pittsburgh Penguins can sweep the four-game season series Saturday when they visit the Columbus Blue Jackets. In fact, the Penguins have won eight in a row against the Blue Jackets and are 9-0-1 in the teams' past 10 meetings after they won the front half of home-and-home series Thursday 3-0.

The Pittsburgh Penguins coach isn't sure there is one that can adequately describe why his team dominates the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The visiting Blue Jackets (36-26-3, 75 points) look to get back on track Tuesday when they vie for a season sweep of the New Jersey Devils in Newark, N.J. Although Columbus' swoon has dropped the club two points behind Montreal and Pittsburgh for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, captain Nick Foligno didn't find much fault with the Blue Jackets' performance in Sunday's 5-2 setback versus Winnipeg. "It's hard to pick that game apart, because I thought we did a lot of good things," Foligno said after scoring a goal against the Jets and seeing his team register a season-high 42 shots on goal. "We dictated play for a lot of it, (but) it's not a good feeling. Continue to Article
