The Blue Jackets kept taking one step forward and two steps back against the Chicago Blackhawks. They could not string together good play consistently and it cost them once again playing in a hole for nearly the entire night. They would fall to their Windy City rivals in the shootout, 6-5. The loss to the Blackhawks raises questions about where the season is headed and how they can possibly climb out of the bottom of the standings. Here are your three things: Mr. Laine, You're Our Only Hope Frankly, the Blue Jackets looked out of sorts all night, and the only two players to really stand out were forward Patrik Laine and Oliver Bjorkstrand. As is custom for the player, Laine scored on the power play. He was able to fill the net twice on the evening and showed why the difference-maker was so highly coveted. He also was one of the only players on the evening to have a positive 5v5 shot differential.
