Can the Blue Jackets Make a Push for the Playoffs?

The Columbus Blue Jackets are currently in 10th place in the Eastern Conference and 5th in Metropolitan Division. They have a 23-22-1 record and a .511 point percentage.

The Blue Jackets are trying to get into the playoffs. They have won five of their last six games. The team has three games in hand over the Red Wings and four inhand over Washington. Washington is 6-9-2 in 2022 and currently holds the top wild card position. Boston Bruins have four games left and could be eliminated from the playoff race. Columbus has the third-worst defense in the NHL. It has received contributions from a variety of players, but lacks a star or two to lead the team. The Jackets have taken an aggressive trade deadline approach before.
