Columbus Blue Jackets (Official Thread)

Damn...tibor hits the hockey thread :lol:

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.

:p



Half the crowd were Pens fans, so the half for the CBJ must have been REALLY whiny to be whiniest ever. :lol:

I know, I know...but it's FUCKING PITTSBURGH

:pissed: :pissed: :pissed:

:slappy:

In all seriousness, if they can't stop the 3rd period meltdowns, a lot of promise is going to turn into a long season really, really fast.

RAFFI TORRES TIES IT!!!!

What a pass by Brassard. 22 seconds left, Jackets had an empty net. Clutch Torres. Has he ever scored a goal that didn't tie or win a game?

EDIT: I hope I didn't just see Dave Steckel try to kick Pahlsson..

I hope someone beats the fuck out of Mike Knuble.

Wouldn't be surprised if Brassard has a broken finger.

Garon is in net? What the fuck? I hope there's a reason for this.

EDIT: Brass is fine.

Mason has been struggling a bit...maybe just a changeup? They do have back-to-back games coming up.

good job to salvage at least a point out of that 3rd period travesty

2 would be nice though

Definitely...I'd be happy with one at a tough place like Washington in the grand scheme, but we let a point get away against Pittsburgh, so we could really use it now.

He's looked about as good as he could tonight, given the defense in front of him. I also don't think you pull your young goalie during the most important time of the game. Confidence = gone.

He's back in. So there must have been something going on.

The goalie change just bought the team a minute to catch their breath since the timeout was already used in the 2nd period. Hitch pushing the envelope. :sneaky:

actually like 30 seconds, for each of the two changes. old school hockey move...



also of note:

Beer Is Good (Puck-rakers)
Rick Nash, Jared Boll, Kris Russell and Marc Methot will continue their training for a second career tonight ... you know, if this hockey thing doesn't work out.
Tonight, those four Blue Jackets players will bartend at the R-Bar in the Arena District, one of the finest hockey watering holes in all of North America. They'll be twisting caps from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the annual Celebrity Bartending event.
All proceeds go to the Blue Jackets Foundation.
Odd thought here, as I didn't sleep much last night. Which beer best matches each player?
-- Rick Nash = Killian's Irish Red (bold, understated and you know you've been hit the next morning)
-- Jared Boll = Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull (no explanation needed)
-- Kris Russell = Red Stripe (a good beer in a diminutive bottle)
-- Marc Methot = Pabst Blue Ribbon (underpriced, underappreciated)
I look forward to your "player = beer" thoughts. Don't stop with these four, either, go for the whole roster.
7-8 rbar nash, boller, russ and methot will sling beers for charity at the rbar. (its down by the arena below the arena crossing apartments)
