Oddsmakers don't give the Blue Jackets much of a chance Tuesday, installing them as 150 underdogs when they host Philadelphia at Nationwide Arena.
It's a non-conference battle pitting the Flyers, who come in at 17-7-4 against the Blue Jackets.
Oddsmakers like the Flyers in this one, opening the line at 150 in favor of Philadelphia. They are 17-7-4 this season, while the Blue Jackets are 9-20-0. The total is 9-18-2 to the OVER in Blue Jackets games.
Ken Hitchcock's team hopes to build upon a 3-2 win over the Wild. They were 160 favorites in a game that went under the total.
The Blue Jackets defeated the Devils 3-2 as 140 underdogs. That contest went under the closing total.
