## Resource

The Columbus Blue Jackets’ defense is poised to be their secret weapon this season, anchored by a dominant Werenski-Severson pairing projected to lead the league in defensive value. Werenski, hungry to win now after a tough offseason, is on track for 90 points — a career-high — while Mateychuk, Severson, and Provorov are expected to deliver offense and stability. With late-game collapses from last year still haunting them, consistency and Coach Bowness’ system will be the key to playoff success. If the blue line holds steady, the Jackets could finally break through — and the forwards will be the next big test.
