Columbus outshot Tampa on attempts and rang three shots off iron, but Hagel's pair kept the Lightning in front at Nationwide.
By MA Insights
Columbus had more of the play against Tampa Bay and still lost 3-1. The Blue Jackets' chances were worth about 2.95 goals (expected goals -- how many the chances were worth) and they scored once, on the power play. Jet Greaves stopped 25 of 28 shots, a .893 save percentage, while Dennis Hildeby stopped 28 of 29.
