CALGARY, Alberta -- The Columbus Blue Jackets are riding a long winning streak while their next opponent, the Calgary Flames, are dealing with an abrupt end to one.The teams meet Friday at 7 p.m. in Calgary. Columbus is going for its eighth-straight victory while the Flames are trying to start another streak after one ended at six with a 6-3 loss at home to Tampa Bay onWednesday night.Its a great league and its hard to go on long win streaks so ultimately thats going to happen and its just a matter of us re-focusing, re-grouping and bouncing back for next game, said Flames center Sam Bennett.Normally a visit by the Blue Jackets has hosts licking their chops but that is no longer the case as, under head coach John Tortorella, the Blue Jackets (18-5-4) have emerged as a challenger for the lead in the tough Metropolitan Division. The are two points back division-leading Pittsburgh Penguins entering Friday, though they have played five fewer games.If it wasnt for division foe Philadelphia Flyers, who have won 10 straight, the Blue Jackets would be the NHLs hottest team.Its a far cry from the start of last season when the Blue Jackets began 0-7 and fired coach Todd Richards, bringing in lightning rod Tortorella. While they finished 27th overall in 2015-16, the BlueJackets caught fire this season and are an unheard of fifth overall.Tortorella is being credited with taking a softer approach to coaching the youthful Blue Jackets that has worked thus far.Its him realizing that things should be ... done differently, whether it be with the players or with the media or whoever it is, Blue Jackets president John Davidson told Canadian network Sportsnet. Hes done a great job. The one thing I can tell you is hes a gd coach. Hes a really gd coach.Tortorella admits hes tried to be more relaxed. One change has been to eliminate game-day morning skates, which is considered sacrilegious by many in the NHL.Ive made adjustments in my coaching to the youth of this team, he told NHL.com. Weve tried to, as I say, turn away from mistakes and allow them to play because I think we need to play a different game, especially with some of the skill thats been brought to our team.Columbus is relying heavily on goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky, who has started 24 of 27 games and has a 17-4-2 record and 1.94 goals-against average.The Flames were getting similar strong goaltending from Chad Johnson who was in goal for all six of their wins until he hit a snag against Tampa Bay and was pulled after two periods trailing 4-1. Still, hes sitting at a fine 2.12 GAA with a 13-5-1 record.This isnt easy, said Flames coach Glen Gulutzan. You hope you create these runs and we got ourselves back above board but its a lesson here t. You cant take your ft off the gas at all, you cant lose little battles, you cant lose face-offs at the rate we were, which caused us a lot of trouble and disrupted our team a little bit.
