Blue Jackets look to extend winning streak as road trip rolls into Alberta to face the Flames
Winners of five of their last six games, the Columbus Blue Jackets continue their current five-game road trip on Tuesday night as they look to continue their dominance over the Calgary Flames who Columbus has beaten in three consecutive meetings. Calgary followed a four-game winning streak in mid-November with their current four-game losing streak that’s seen their usually reliable defense allow four or more goals three times in that span. Columbus won the first meeting of the season against Calgary behind a pair of goals from Adan Fantilli as the Blue Jackets raced out to an early three-goal leading going on to win 5-2 at home.

Third-year winger Kirill Marchenko has four goals in his last four games leading Columbus in scoring and is on pace for a career-high in goals after posting 23 goals last season.

Wolf has allowed four goals in each of his last two outings after allowing a combined four goals in the four previous games including his first career shutout in a 2-0 win against Nashville.,
Calgary has won four of the last five meetings inside the Scotiabank Saddledome with two of the four wins coming in overtime.
