Columbus Blue Jackets' Steve Mason is 2-0-1 with a 1.30 goals-against average in three career starts against the Bruins, but Boston has been getting offense from a multitude of sources lately. Columbus Blue Jackets' Jeff Carter also hasn’t immediately helped, posting a minus-3 with no points in two games since returning from a fractured foot. Carter has no goals in seven games with Columbus after scoring 115 over the last three seasons for the Flyers. Columbus Blue Jackets’ last road game was a 9-2 loss in Philadelphia on Nov. 5 that Rick Nash called “embarrassing.” Nash has no goals and two assists along with a minus-9 rating in his last five games.
Boston Bruins' Tyler Seguin scored the lone shootout goal in a 3-2 win at Columbus in the teams’ only meeting last season. He wasn’t among the team’s 10 players on the scoresheet against the Devils, but the 19-year-old star still leads Boston with 11 goals and 20 points. Boston Bruins red-hot offense may not find much resistance against Columbus, which has allowed a league-high 3.71 goals per game. Bruins' Benoit Pouliot scored the game-winner with 3:01 remaining after he was a healthy scratch in the Bruins’ previous game, Saturday’s 6-2 win over Buffalo. Boston Bruins did that Tuesday, scoring three third-period goals to fend off a pair of New Jersey comebacks for a 4-3 win.
