The Columbus Blue Jackets beat the reigning NHL champion Tampa Bay Lightning (4-2) on Tuesday. Alexandre Texier distinguished himself by delivering assistance.
After three consecutive defeats, the Columbus Blue Jackets reacted on Tuesday, and in a very nice way. They indeed beat the Tampa Bay Lightning (4-2), defending champion, as had already been the case on January 22 (5-2) and March 30 (3-1).
On Tuesday, the “Blue Tunics” led 4-0, before Tampa Bay saved the honor in the final five minutes. Alexandre Texier signed an assist, on the fourth goal of his team, scored by Nick Foligno. This is the 13th point of the French Columbus this season (four goals, nine assists) who was aligned in the center for this match.
After this victory, the Blue Jackets occupy sixth place in the Central Division (out of eight teams), with 15 wins in 41 matches played.
