Saying the Columbus Blue Jackets have struggled to score goals is like saying the sun is hot. The Blue Jackets offense all around (including the power play) has one glaring issue: the team is overpassing the puck looking for the “pretty play.” Players need to realize it is okay at times to be selfish with the puck and take shots.
