Looks like Rychel is getting a paid vacation in California.

 

[We Want Ten]

Threepeat? We have to be as close to a favorite here as we have been at any point this year right? Right?

Or do we play the role of slump buster?

Anaheim busts out the flying ot the flying V in desperation.

Bob gets the SO. Hopefully Rychel gets some ice time.

CBJ 3
ANA 0

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

The 'battle of teams that started the year off poorly but are both looking to turn it around'

 

[niflheim]

Don't lose focus Go Jackets!

 

[ndd17]

I want sweep California.

 

[Privet]

Is Bob for sure starting tonight? I kind of don't want Torts to burn Bob out... but at the moment we need every win we can get...

 

[MAHJ71]

Optional skate is at 11:30 their time I believe.. probably won't know anything until then..

 

[Nordique]

This will be a tough one, we took our share of bumps and bruises last night.

 

[MAHJ71]

Sounds like Getzlaf will be back.. was taking top line rushes during their practice.

 

[JacketsDavid]

Let's go streaking!

 

[ca5150]

Only 5 points out! Granted teams ahead of us have a few in hand but as another poster said last night, we started 5-10 the last time we made the playoffs and hopefully we have our bad month out of the way and Bob is healthy the whole season this time. We will be in it soon enough!

Mmm... You don't know how to throw out a season in cesspool through seven games? Ask Richards.

 

[niflheim]

I trust God and our Guys! Go Jackets!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

McElhinney in tonight

 

[niflheim]

McElhinney in tonight

Curtis will be fine but we ll play a little bit different hockey today. Not bad idea from Torts for b-2-b

 

[Dr. Fire]

Third game in four nights, and with the added problem it's happening three time zones away. This will be a tough one against another team aggressively rebounding from a bad start.

Would love to see a west coast sweep, but I for one, won't fault the boys if they have trouble finding their legs tonight.

Probably going to have to find a way to steal one tonight. The Ducks have at least been playing > .500 at home, while the CBJ have all their wins on the road.

Still a 2-1 west coast trip is a success. 3-0, all the better.

I don't mean to sound negative, but I think this is realistic. One never knows.

 

[MAHJ71]

Rychel apparently will be scratched again per Portzline..

Heart Says: 3-1 Jackets
Head Says: 3-2 Ducks

Going to be hard to bring the same energy as last night after the beating we dished and also took.. but if we do, I like our odds.

 

[CBJSlash]

It's starting to come together boys. It's starting to come together.

We march on! Joey with a goal.

 

[MAHJ71]

We're actually sending Rychel right back down per Portzline.. Weird.

Hope he enjoyed the plane ride for nothing..

 

[EspenK]

Guess he was strictly there for an emergency. Now if one pops up he can drive down 71.

 

[DarkandStormy]

We already had an extra forward and knew Wennberg was coming back from his injury. Seems like a waste of a call up but whatever, they can pay him for a plane ride if they want.

 

[Inglewood JACKets]

We can definitely win tonight if we play a heavy game like we did last night. Anaheim has shown in the past that if you can get under their skin they will get frustrated and make mistakes.

 

[JacketsDavid]

We already had an extra forward and knew Wennberg was coming back from his injury. Seems like a waste of a call up but whatever, they can pay him for a plane ride if they want.

Also it's a couple days worth of NHL paychecks and per diems.

 

[Viqsi]

Also it's a couple days worth of NHL paychecks and per diems.

I kind of wonder how the nuts and bolts of that work - like, if it's actually significant enough to represent a nice financial boost here and there. Have gotten that impression before, but am not sure.
