Hey, Boll may have someone to fight tonight? Guess he'll start earning that $1.7m...maybe

of all things to ***** about, I have no idea why some are so fixated on Boll. at least pick the right time to bring up your irrational hate of the guy's contract. Jeebus.

Shame on JD and Jarmo for going into this season without addressing the need for an (even) average backup goalie. Yes, there would have been a cost but I'm thinking that the cost of another losing season is going to cost a lot more in the area of, oh I don't know, missing the playoffs AGAIN and losing a significant number of the new fans. I never, ever wanted to again hear the phrase "same old Jackets" and yet here we are. (Caveat: I know we haven't seen our "real" team play yet but, damn, the McElhinney experiment is killing the season before the "real" team ever hits the ice.)

The team has been decimated by injuries, but their play right now is beyond bad. I think Richards will take the fall pretty soon, whether deserved or not.

Agree.... this game is not over but so far it's a turkey shoot... or, an Ovi shoot.. The CBJ are on the cusp of the worst losing streak in club history.... As Arace said in the Dispatch the other day, all NHL teams suffer injuries...

A better back up goalie may not have saved the day but perhaps a game or two..
