The Blue Jackets continue a four-game road trip as they visit Long Island tonight to play the last-place Islanders. The Blue Jackets did something against the Rangers that they've only done one other time this entire season - Failed to score a goal.
Vincent Trocheck scored the only goal of the shootout, Igor Shesterkin stopped 27 shots and New York Rangers beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 1-0.
