At 10:37pm ET, my NHL Non-Conference Game Of The Month is on Columbus. The Sharks get their prized #1 pick back tonight. Macklin Celebrini played in one game and got hurt. Celebrini did look really good in that brief snapshot and he will make San Jose better in the long-run. The Sharks had started to play ok without him though and now for his first game back, they may get caught standing around waiting for their star to do something. There's going to be an adjustment period. Off bad losses to Washington and Winnipeg, the Blue Jackets understand that this game offers them an excellent chance to get things going in the right direction again and that they need to make it count. They've already started the road trip off on the wrong foot and the next 3 games on the trip are more challenging than this one. Columbus will seize the opportunity and spoil Macklin's return.
