Ottawa Senators vs Columbus Blue Jackets Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/11/25

Thursday in the NHL brings us an Eastern Conference matchup between the Ottawa Senators and Columbus Blue Jackets. This is the first of 3 matchups this season, and we are here to provide our expert Senators vs. Blue Jackets prediction for a pair of teams that need points desperately.

It has been a very rough go for Ottawa lately, as they are now toying with last place in the Eastern Conference. They are on a three-game losing streak, and have posted a 1-5-0 record in their last six. However, Columbus has not been much better as they are 0-2-1 in their last three games. In this game, I am siding with the Blue Jackets. Their poor play has not been sustained as long as Ottawa, showing the Senators are in a true slump. Columbus is on home ice, and knowing they are in an extremely close and competitive Metropolitan Division, every point is crucial. I say they prevent a four-game losing streak, taking down the Senators in what should be a close game. Take Columbus on the money line in this one.
