Blue Jackets open longest homestand in club history

Feb 6, 2007 - 4:56 PM Phoenix (24-27-2) at Columbus (21-27-5) 7:00 pm EST

COLUMBUS, Ohio (Ticker) -- The Columbus Blue Jackets hope their long stay at home will be a good one.

The Blue Jackets open the longest homestand in franchise history at six games when they host the Phoenix Coyotes on Tuesday.

Columbus has won three straight at home but will have to try to rebound from two straight lopsided road loses. It was defeated, 5-2, by the Edmonton Oilers on last Wednesday and were pounded by the Calgary Flames, 6-2, on Friday.

Defenseman Rostislav Klesla had one of the two goals in Friday's setback and has three goals in his last five games.

The blue-liner tallied in Columbus' last two home games, a 3-2 win over the Buffalo Sabres on January 26 and a 3-2 triumph over the Minnesota Wild the next day.

The Coyotes are coming off a 1-0 loss against the Wild on Saturday, and are 1-3-0 in their last four games. Curtis Joseph made 29 saves in the latest setback, and is 1-2-0 in his last three starts despite only allowing just five goals.

Phoenix center Yanic Perreault leads the Coyotes with 31 points but has one in his last four games.
