The Jets left Carolina with a 4-1 loss and a three game losing streak. It won’t be an easy conclusion to the pre All-Star portion of their schedule as they conclude things in Columbus against a Blue Jackets team that has won five straight games and are 8-2-0 in their last 10 games. They’ve also been good at Nationwide Arena this season going 15-9-2.
No morning skate for the Jets.
