Columbus at Utah

January 11, 2026
img7:00 PM Eastern

Columbus closes out its four-game road trip here desperate for a win having gone 0-3 so far on the journey. The Blue Jackets aren't likely to push pace, though, as they are playing without rest following a 4-0 loss to the Avalanche on Saturday. This also is their third game in four days and sixth game in nine days. Utah plays slow and methodical. So the tempo will not be fast-paced. The teams have yet to play each other this season. There were just four goals scored in regulation during both of last season's meetings. It is the Blue Jackets' first visit to the newly renovated Delta Center. The Mammoth remain without standout center Logan Cooley, who is out with a lower-body injury after scoring 14 goals in 29 games. Even though the Mammoth lost to Colorado yesterday, they kept the league’s leading scorer, Nathan MacKinnon, and top-scoring defenseman, Cale Makar, off the board. Take the UNDER.
