Why is McE so aggressive right now?

 

[We Want Ten]

****.
Not surprised.

 

[The Jones Zone]

is Curtis allowed to be checked if he is out of the blue paint?

WTF

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Oh look, momentum

 

[EXTRAS]

Did wennberg get benched or did wennberg get injured?

Neither.

Had to rub my eyes there because for a couple minutes we looked like a real hockey team. Very good pressure

 

[We Want Ten]

The islanders tv guy keeps saying "the blue jackets are buzzing". I think he is confused.

I need to start paying more attention to Bodnarchuk in our own zone. He's looked pretty good on the attack so far to me, but when the puck's in our end I've been paying more attention to Murray of late and so have overlooked #2. Looking like a very nice callup.

I think that is an apt description of the last bit of play by the Jackets. The only thing they didn't do was score.

 

[NotWendell]

If we play the 3rd period like we played the 2nd, we'll win this game.

Other than the bad boarding call, I think he has played very well. Better than the guy scratched tonight anyways. He clearly has better offensive potential as well.

 

[We Want Ten]

Neither.

Did they say anything during the intermission? It does look like something is going on.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

It does look like something is going on.

Torts is not afraid to play hot hands and not play guys who aren't playing well, maybe he feels that he's not playing well tonight

 

[Viqsi]

Gotta love it when the other team apparently plays totally clean, mistake-free hockey... judging by the PIMs, anyways.


EDIT: And on an unrelated note, it's now official - I'm really liking Bodnarchuk's work.

I hear ya, he only has like 1 minute more of ice time now from early in the second. I saw him get checked pretty good and thought maybe there was something going on.

 

[We Want Ten]

First shot of the period lol.

 

[Viqsi]

One for Attaboy!

As stated in a recent thread in which he was a throw-in: "We like Atkinson. He puts the puck in the net."

Good job by Wenny to create some traffic out front.

 

[We Want Ten]

Clarkson with the great open field tackle lol.

 

[Viqsi]

Clarkson with the great open field tackle lol.

And now he looks injured. Is he injured again?

Islanders tv guy said he got hit with the shot and limped to the bench, so...

Portzline said Murray's shot injured Clarkson.

We cant win with Murray; he's either injured, or injuring soeone else.
