The Columbus Blue Jackets, with their aggressive offensive line, and the Ottawa Senators, known for their opportunistic scoring, suggest that this game could easily surpass the 4.5 goal mark.
Over 5.5 Goals
The odds for over 5.5 goals are set at 56.50, indicating a strong possibility for a high-scoring game. Given the recent performances of both teams, where they have consistently scored above average in their respective matches, it’s plausible to expect a game with more than five goals being scored in total.
