tonight's game will be a pretty decent barometer whether or not this team is going to continue to contend for the playoffs.

they had 2 tough losses after being on a good run. good teams find a way to win tonight. Teams that are destined to miss the playoffs get blown off the ice.


I think they bounce back strong tonight. Moreau coming back and it's Nashville.

I fucking hate Nashville.

I'll take C, an OT loss Alex :lol:

Hard to say what tonight means...last year they get no points from this game, earlier in the year they get 2...I dunno, tough stretch with Pittsburgh coming up, we'll see what they're made of now.

Yep....this was a good sign if you ask me.

Trashville is desperate right now and the Jackets still stood up to them when they could have folded after being beaten by Detroit.

Last year they folded. Not this year.

so far 1 of 2, with 30 points still on the table. 20 or so points should be applauded and will keep the jackets in the upper half of the playoff teams. its a stretch with very few divisional games but a quick (and oddly scheduled) western roadie. time will tell, and this month should be telling, imo.

Make the world a better place, punch Cindy in the face :p

:biggrin:

What kind of sucks is that I won't be able to actually root for the Pens other than inside my head. :(

But hey, I get to write about hockey and talked to coaches and players. And maybe Mario will make the trip and I'll get to talk to him. :biggrin:

Talking to Mario would be awesome :banger:

See if you can get him to talk shit about the Poodle :biggrin:

Jackets are in Buffalo right now, and they look awful so far. Brassard just missed a goal, but aside from that, not much going on for them. Buffalo up 1-0 because Commodore and Voracek couldn't get the puck or Jochen Hecht out of the crease.

Buffalo is carrying the play. They've already had a handful of great chances. Jackets are lucky it's not 3-0 at this point.. not even 10 minutes in.
