Jackets Chase Jets to Snap Ugly Skid

The Blue Jackets hit the ice against the Jets tonight, desperate to halt a skid that's got their locker room on edge and front offices whispering about summer moves. Columbus knows Winnipeg's forecheck can bury teams alive, especially when the Jets smell weakness from a club that's lost five straight. GM Jarmo Kekalainen watches every shift like a hawk, because a win here keeps playoff hopes flickering while a loss lights the fuse on bigger changes.
