GDT: Columbus @ Boston | 7 PM EST

[MoeBartoli]

That’s should have been an interference call for taking Monahan down

 

[Seedtype]

Give the Bruins a penalty for bleep sake.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Severson is a disaster

 

[Seedtype]

Severson is a moron

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Severson wtf

Another massive Elvis save

 

[Viqsi]

holy f*** Elvis do this more often pls

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Feel like we're using up all our goals saved against expectations karma in this game.

 

[Jaxs]

Horrendous turnovers tonight.

 

[Fred Glover]

Severson has gotten so lackadaisical with his passing

Severson is a moron

No, Jimmy Haslam is a moron
Severson tho may be not what Jarmo thought he was

 

[Viqsi]

Meanwhile, Provorov-Fabbro so far has been fine.

Go figure.

 

[Seedtype]

JVR 3-0!!!

 

[MoeBartoli]

Welcome back to the line up JVR

 

[spintheblackcircle]

no right lol

 

[CBJWerenski8]

That’s a lucky one, what a pass by Fantilli cross ice

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Haha what is this game

 

[Seedtype]

Why is JVR out so much? I swear he always does something.

 

[Viqsi]

Blue Jackets and goals in the last minute of the period. A tradition like no other.

...what do you mean, the tradition is goals against?

 

[JacketFanInFL]

I love that we have finally embraced dirty, throw it on the net, goals. Been a long several years of too much passing and playing on the boards. Now we're attacking the net.

 

[Seedtype]

Okay, we're up 3-0 and Elvis is looking good. Great.

But Evason needs to flip a table. We need to clean it up defensively.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Lots of bad passing in our own zone and it was mostly our DMen just doing crazy ass stuff.

 

[Jaxs]

JVR with another greasy goal!

 

[VABUCK]

Elvis playing much more controlled this year, not as much flailing around. He has made some great save tonight.

 

[MoeBartoli]

No knock on Jody as he’s off doing his national gig tonight, but I always appreciate JD sitting in and providing commentary. He’s still very good at it.

And Olivier is always one of the best, thoughtful interviews.

Not sure how much of this is selection bias on my part, but the impression I've been left with is that it's been one or two Growing Pains moments with Jiricek, one Bizarro Bounce as Werenski was making a pass, and a lot of Severson.

I'm hesitant to stick to that assessment tho because I'm already grumpy towards Severson for being part of the Provorov-Severson depression pairing and I'm already in love with Fabbro from his Preds past thus making it easy to believe He Makes Provorov Fine, so I worry that such a conclusion may be a bit too self-serving/confirmation bias. I legit can't tell if what I think I'm seeing is what's happening.

Don’t disagree with much of this but I think Z made several poor plays/passes down there and Christiansen threw in a boneheaded one too
