GDT: CBJ @ Nashville | 8pm EST | "2013 Season Opener" Edition

[Hello Johnny]

I think Anisimov is gonna be a real player for us.

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

Outstanding! This game reminded me of the 2000-2001 Jackets - lots of grit and finding a way to win ugly. Can't wait for Monday.

 

[jdhebner]

Well. This is quite a difference from last year eh?

 

[Matthew]

<----------------------- GDT king.

 

[Robert]

First place Jackets

Tied for the WCF lead..... Nash is probably shaking his head right now...

 

[Jackets16]

Jackets in first, King/Rangers in last

Sure would be nice if we could make the playoffs and still get a high pick (Kings and/or Rangers not doing well).

 

[BlueJacket2]

I was doubting Brassard. What was I thinking?

 

[alphafox]

what we've learned from this thread, Brass' ability is directly related to how much we bash him in the game-day thread

 

[Mayor Bee]

Bobrovsky was definitely a credit to the force tonight.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

My Guess at 3 stars

3 Bobrovsky
2 Anisimov
1 Brassard (GWG is almost automatic 1st star, even in SO)

 

[Ar-too]

Sweet.

 

[Columbus Jack]

I can't believe we won a shoot out. Anisimov was awesome.

 

[Paisano*]

Woohoo they're gonna be sky high Monday!, great win great effort boys!!

 

[Renion]

Mmm, that was yummy.

 

[Robert]

They will be received as if they just won the cup....

 

[OldGoaltender]

This Blue Jacket group plays like a team. The effort was there all night long. After that first goal they could have went "oh woe is me" but enforced their will on a very good team.

 

[Deku]

Nice to see a win from the CBJs. Hope you guys do well this year!

this.

 

[Jaxs]

Brass that better get ypu in the mood to play some hockey! Loving some Artie and Bob!!!

 

[1857 Howitzer]

Now beat the **** out of the dead things on Monday.

 

[Fred Glover]

I could fall in love with this team.

Lee, I already have

 

[EspenK]

Nice effort tonight. Seemed to play to the way they are designed to. AA and Foligno nice adds.

 

[Crede777]

The thing that impressed me the most was the FIGHT BACK that we demonstrated.

Bobrovsky gave up a goal on the 1st shot. What would Mason have historically done? Instead, Bob never looked out of it. Sure he gave up big rebounds but he kept fighting and didn't hang his head.

The team showed real resolve. Maybe it was due to tired legs on Nashville's part and we had some more conditioning due to playing during the lockout. In the end, though, they fought hard even when down.

 

[Timeless Winter]

1st star - Bob
2 - Frodo
3 - Brass even though he was bad for 65 minutes

feels good to start 1-0 and in their building

 

[SgtJoseph*]

Attaboy BOB ! Really proud of the lad ! I really hope he plays well for your club, and i think you folks are gonna really like the way he can go post to post etc. He is very athletic between the pipes........He just needs a little confidence and i think he will be fine.
