Jets vs. Blue Jackets Prediction

I’m on the over here. Both teams have had stellar goaltending out of the gate, which has helped the Jets with their hot start to the year and the Blue Jackets to be surprisingly more comPetitive than I thought they would be. However, both teams have some pop offensively as well, and I think this could end up being a bit of a high-scoring affair. Give me the over.
