A Kirill Marchenko hat trick, a Johnny Gaudreau three point night, and eight other Blue Jackets with multipoint games led Columbus to a 9-4 win over the Sabres in Buffalo.

The Blue Jackets were not able to overcome the early 2-0 deficit and in a list of things that is wrong with this team, coaching is still a topic. Adam Fantilli was dropped to the fourth line late in the game, while Pascal Vincent felt the team was "chasing" all night. The players should be held accountable, but the Jackets need to find a way to build more chemistry in the offensive zone if they want to remain competitive in the Metropolitan Division.

The Blue Jackets had a 5-0 lead going into the third period and, like so many other games this season, somehow they let the Leafs back into the game, allowing 5 goals in the third to send the game to overtime. Kent Johnson was the overtime hero, but we can't be completely happy about this win.

The Blue Jackets won a game they should have probably lost, and lost a game they probably should have won. It's been that kind of season. They followed up a big win against Ottawa with a close loss to the Boston Bruins on the back of a Brad Marchand third period hat trick, but things are starting to come together for the Jackets.
