and just like that Jake Voracek does it again. one on one with the goalie and gives him a backhand.

4-0 Jackets

Son of a....maybe I should just forget trying to watch since all the good things happen when I'm not paying attention.

I've been out of Ohio for the past 30 months or so. Anyone know what the attendance has been like this year?

I'm a huge Jackets fan and go to their games whenever I can...just was wondering because there's always been buzz about them moving or not having the support in CBus. I remember there was a frenzy of bandwagons a couple of seasons ago with the playoffs, but haven't heard much since.

Was just gonna type "Helluva save by Mase" (on the one timer), but the D sucked just long enough to make it moot.

Good thing the O is on point!

It's been terrible. Less than 10k (out of 18k+) on a couple nights.

Blues get on the board after mason gets caught away from the net.

Clark comes right back and scores on the next face off.

5-1 CBJ.

Brassard has his first three-assist and three point night of his career right now.

Yep. It's bad. They need to keep winning and push for the playoffs.

But I don't think the Jackets are going anywhere. It's a better hockey market than Phoenix and the NHL is bending over backwards to keep the Coyotes there. Too good of a hockey market here, despite low attendance numbers right now.

The Jackets are the greatest team of all time, apparently. Except that one goal they let in.

Sucks to hear that man. I hate that. Columbus is really lucky to have a pro franchise seated right in the center of one of their most up and coming districts. If they make another run...or perhaps a bigger run, it could help immensely.

Thanks for responding though! If I were back in the 'Bus, I'd hit at least 10-15 home games for sure. Bummer. The Stars (since I'm closer to Dallas) have a pretty decent following it seems.

HOLY SHIT FILATOV

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

Finally saw one! 6-1!

 

[bucknutz]

Umberger on the board now haha.

6-1

The Blues have to pull Halak after the next goal. Can the Jacks break double digits?

 

[bucknutz]

HOLY SHIT FILATOV

that was crazy stick handling by Filatov.

Halak has been out since the fourth goal. :p

Jackets are just awesome right now.

First game I've got to watch that's not on a 17" laptop with a choppy stream and French commentary.

Way to go Jackets!
