Friday, November 15th, 2024

The Columbus Blue Jackets achieved an important win with contributions from Zac Werenski and Dmitri Voronkov, each tallying a goal and an assist. Elvis Merzlikins supported the team with 23 saves.

Adding to the Blue Jackets' success, Zach Aston-Reese, Mathieu Olivier, Damon Severson, and Cole Sillinger each scored, helping the team break a six-game losing streak and improving their record to 6 wins, 8 losses, and 2 ties.

On the other side, Anthony Beauvillier and Michael Bunting scored for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Tristan Jarry managed 34 saves, while Sidney Crosby provided an assist but still needs two more goals to reach 600 in his career.
