The Blue Jackets haven’t had all that much success in franchise history outside a run from 2017 to 2020. The taste of victory those years has seemingly re-energized the organization. That’s one way to rationilze the flurry of moves this front office has made as of late. Sure, many players were dealt elsewhere, but Columbus also signed Johnny Gaudreau to a massive contract in the 2022 offseason. Blue Jackets aren’t typically splash in free agency, but the multi-time All-Star Gaudreau is a massive get.

Columbus Blue Jackets Online Betting Tips

Columbus’ general manager Jarmo Kekalainen famously called the team’s makeover a "reset," not a "rebuild." It’s an accurate reflection because the Blue Jackets added play-now players, not future draft picks. But as a bettor, it’s going to take time for the “dust to settle” per se and for a real identity to form around this new-look team. If we were you, we’d at least temper Columbus Blue Jackets bets to start with. By that, don’t risk too much money — or any at all if you’re on the conservative side.

Though, you still want to follow the team. The sooner you can “figure out” the Blue Jackets, the more of an advantage you’ll have over other bettors and bookmakers. Eventually, people catch on. But the sweet spot as a bettor is to get ahead of that and capitalize until the masses are caught up. This type of insight only comes from following Columbus closely for months — not just a few weeks here and there. Eventually, there will be distinct patterns that form about the Blue Jackets’ performance. Those patterns should drive your betting decision-making.

Columbus Blue Jackets Betting Odds

There’s a litany of Columbus Blue Jackets betting odds available all season long. Your “best bet” is to specialize in odds for individual games— that includes puck lines, moneylines, or over/unders. Since these are available for every matchup the Blue Jackets play (even preseason), there’s just the most opportunity to make money off this based on volume alone.

Though, the biggest one-time payouts are usually around futures bets. A prime example of this is a bet on Columbus Blue Jackets winning championship. The franchise is Stanley Cup-less in history, which contributes to the high potential payout cause Columbus usually has long odds in this wager. As always, assess the risk and reward when deciding on such bets.
