Torts said we had a "dead building"
Not sure why we should care what Torts thinks anymore. Attendance looked soft tonight but it was also a midweek game and I assume C-Bus got snow just like we did up near Mansfield. Thought about getting tix to the game but glad I didn't because I wouldn't have wanted to drive tonight.
 
If I’m not mistaken Z is now leading the D points race? Or at least tied?
Z has 15 Goals and 50 Points. Makar has 13 Goals and 50 Points. Makar has played one more game than Z. Quinn Hughes has only played 39 games and leads in PPG.

my girlfriend and I went to tonight’s game. we had gone to 2 previous together this year, in those two games we scored 3 goals and lost both (minny, and winnipeg) so tonight felt extra good to win. after the game, we got to meet denton and take a pic with him. a very stone faced kid lol. as far as the torts comment goes… the building was intact dead until late in the 3rd period. even after we scored our first goal, the building went quiet quickly. out of the 60 some home games i’ve been to, that was easily a top 3 quietest game.

this team is so damn fun.

I got to see Tarasov win in person in cleveland on saturday and then win tonight in columbus.

it was a great last 4 days for my girlfriend and I when it comes to this beautiful sport of Hockey.
 
Werenski with a clutch game!

Marchenko and Severson were great too. Tarry played well despite that one mistake.

5 game winning streak baby!!

I guess once again I'll be the one pumping the breaks on Mateychuk hype...

The data he's selected to push his perception makes it seem like he's a bit guilty of cherry-picking there. If we look at xGA/60 numbers of all dmen since Mateychuk's callup (12/23/24-1/15/25, 10 games, TOI >90min), he's been third best of the Jackets D at 5v5, and 58th league-wide.

2.05 Christiansen
2.16 Provorov
2.21 Mateychuk
2.40 Severson
2.51 Werenski
2.76 Fabbro

That said, I'm very impressed how he's grown defensively since the draft, and even though I think there still might be some smaller details that could be better, mentioning them would be unimportant nitpicking compared to the puck handling issues. Great at defending but not elite.

Provorov squandered a lot of chances tonight. People are getting on Severson for not finishing, but he was at least creating and getting close. Provorov doesn't have the vision to create. If he can't see a pass, he's got to at least fire the puck on net.

Nah man, idk about you but I personally loved when he skated the puck around the net and ran into Kent Johnson (who for minutes had his stick raised for a one-timer)! :laugh:

Provorov was one of the guys giving me major Jack Roslovic skating for the sake of skating vibes last night. Sadly, there was a shift where LDBB did too.
