Columbus Blue Jackets (Official Thread)

[3074326]

I appreciate that they are 6-3 and this is the 7th game they've had out west, but the effort, or lack thereof, pisses me the fuck off.

Not sure how.

 

[Mike80]

start of the 2nd and Mason lazily plays a puck behind his net with one hand on his goalie stick and doesn't help his defense at ALL.

He's still in a funk.

 

[Mike80]

3-0 LA on a bad turnover in the Jackets zone.

Game over.

back to backs on the West Coast killed Detroit early on last season too. Don't worry about it unless the defensive issues continue once they get home.

 

[Mike80]

Pretty play by Commode and Vermette...

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Stupid lazy penalty by Blunden.

The team tries to claw back in and a stupid ass penalty puts LA on the 5-3 where they score. I should turn this shit off and go to bed.

Juice is worthless lately. Voracek is about the only player I'm happy with right now.

Maybe not entirely worthless.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Fucking. Pathetic.

Damn...tibor hits the hockey thread

Seriously dude, a chill pill might be in order. We've all suffered through some positively awful play the past 10 years or whatever it's been...the fact this team has a chance to win virtually every game going in is a lovely step in the right direction for me.

 

[Bucklion]

All that said...they are playing bad tonight

I'm tired and grumpy and this is the 4th game in a row of poor play with no signs of improvement. I should probably change to the football game right about now.

Eh, Beanie is runnnig amok...so on 3rd and 2 they put the old man in the shotgun and watch him get throttled

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Not sure I agree with that call. Looked like holding the stick to me.

Oh, strike that. I missed the punch to the back of the head.



I'm going to stop watching this any minute now. I mean it this time.

Roy will be getting some of Hejda's minutes. I have been impressed with him in the couple of games he has played this year. He had a helluva camp...outplaying a lot of the other defensemen according to Hitch

i think we can say roy /=/ hejda, any objections at this point on that one?

 

[jimotis4heisman]

I like Scuderi, he's not a dirty player, but I hope someone beats the [censored] out of him. Hip check below the knees. Not necessary.

he showed what he learned playing for the pens, should have just stepped up, taken a bunch or two and flopped to the ice, crap like that is why the instigator rule is bogus. make a guy own up to his own stuff, itll cut that crap out.

Thankfully Chimmy is ok, but if Scuderi doesn't get at least 2 on that one it's ludicrous...

and for Dorsett to get tossed is retarded.

All of the penalties are on Columbus. That's pathetic.

Why the [censored] does Chimera get a 10 minute misconduct? Hopefully the Jackets can trade for Bertuzzi tonight and he can punch some refs and Kings in the back of the head and tackle them.

And the Kings are on the power play. I can do nothing but laugh. I hope these refs are fired, and then stoned in public.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, they're probably stoned in public right now after that bull[censored].

scuds should have been called for clipping, imo. rule 49.

NHL.com - Rulebook

Rule 49 Clipping

Clipping is the act of throwing the body, from any direction, across or below the knees of an opponent.​

1. A player may not deliver a check in a "clipping" manner, nor lower his own body position to deliver a check on or below an opponent's knees.
2. An illegal "low hit" is a check that is delivered by a player who may or may not have both skates on the ice, with his sole intent to check the opponent in the area of his knees. A player may not lower his body position to deliver a check to an opponent's knees.
   A player who commits these fouls will be assessed a minor penalty for "clipping". If an injury occurs as a result of this "clipping" check, the player must be assessed a major penalty and a game misconduct.

[censored] this [censored].

Seriously. Sharpen your [censored]ing elbows and go head-hunting. If the refs aren't going to protect players from dirty hits, [censored] 'em. Get your money's worth.

first instigator, next is no touch icing...

This team is playing so soft right now. Nobody is finishing their checks with authority (Nash). If you're going to go all the way to the guy and give him a half-hearted push, don't even [censored]ing bother.

Hitch needs to light a fire under their asses.

The defensive zone turnovers are unacceptable.

I appreciate that they are 6-3 and this is the 7th game they've had out west, but the effort, or lack thereof, [censored]es me the [censored] off.

not playing within the system bugs me more.

6-4 and below the bar...

when you accept giving an inch youll give a mile.

i felt earlier in the roadie a bag skate was in order....

Eh, Beanie is runnnig amok...so on 3rd and 2 they put the old man in the shotgun and watch him get throttled
