Blackhawks, Blue Jackets play out disappointing campaigns

Mar 20, 2007 - 1:27 PM Chicago (27-35-9) at Columbus (28-37-7) 7:00 pm EDT

COLUMBUS, Ohio (Ticker) -- There's not much more than pride at stake when the Chicago Blackhawks meet the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The Blackhawks and Blue Jackets are tied for the second-to-last spot in the Western Conference. Phoenix (28-40-4) is the only team in the conference with fewer points.

Chicago will be wrapping up a five-game road trip on Tuesday. The Blackhawks split the first four games and are conming off a 5-2 loss at Pacific Division-leading Anaheim on Friday.

Rene Bourque and Jason Williams scored power-play goals for Chicago, which will be eliminated from playoff contention with a loss in regulation or a win by Calgary over Detroit on Tuesday. Columbus has already been eliminated from playoff contention in the West.

The Blue Jackets went 1-2 on a recent three-game trip through California, including a 5-3 loss at Los Angeles on Saturday.

The Kings scored three times on their first seven shots and were ahead 4-0 before the Blue Jackets battled back. Geoff Platt scored two goals, Rick Nash tallied and Nikolai Zherdev had three assists for Columbus.
