Columbus Blue Jackets (Official Thread)

Ugly game. No energy, no crispness. I should have stayed home. :shake:

Fuck Jovanovski. Has he always been such a bitch, or is this unusual for him? That was a nasty hit on Chimera. :shake:

Hope Jake's okay. Nothing like a slash across the face. :shake:

That game gets the dreaded "four shakes" rating from me. :shake:

The Blue Jackets plan to go with three goaltenders for the foreseeable future, a scheme that puts the three -- Pascal Leclaire, Fredrik Norrena and Steve Mason -- in an uncomfortable situation. Besides the obvious issues of splitting playing time among three players instead of two, there is the business of there being only two goals to defend in practice, so one of the three is always the odd man out.

3 goalies make sense, but the odd man out will likely be LeClaire if Mason keeps playing the way he is.

there is no way they'll sit LeClaire with his contract and with a servicable backup like Norrena who comes cheaply.....

And I do think LeClaire could bring a decent forward OR a 1st rounder to the right team...
