3 good shots were a playoff team.

RJ had a lane

My intermission speech would be something like this: well boys, you can write one of two stories from here. Either this is going to be the game where the streak ends or it can be a turning point, a pivotal moment where the entire league realizes this is a different kind of Blue Jackets team. And when they tell the story of the rising of the Columbus Blue Jackets franchise, they'll talk about the streak and about how it almost ended in Nashville, but against all odds, YOU WOULDN'T LET IT!

 

[Zarathustra]

We're just passing it around until we lose it, trying to force the slot.

I think giving a good effort and narrowing the score is important, just as a good game next time out will be important if they lose tonight... The streak had to end sometime, how they respond is key..

Prouts been awful

This 5 minute chunk of time has been pretty decent. Not sure we can make up the deficit, but I'd like to see us fighting like this the rest of the way

 

[SnygGo]

Great shift there. Let's keep it up.

Indeed. We've had slow starts before. But this was just a complete breakdown. If we can avoid starting games like this then it isn't horrible. I believe we started the Detroit game like this two on our second one of a back-to-back.

Agree.... and Calvert is leading out there... a kid...

 

[NotWendell]

It's unlikely we'll win this game, but when it's only half over, you don't surrender. You chip away and chip away.

 

[Zarathustra]

The kids, Umberger, Johnson and the fourth line are the only guys who seemed to have shown up.

Prouts been awful

Your opinion is awful.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Your opinion is awful.

Says the guy from Michigan.

Even if we don't win, make it a closer game and gain some conidence back and play hard in the next game. Look at the Preds, almost came back against us last time. They then had a good game against the Flames and now winning tonight.

 

[NotWendell]

There's the first one.

 

[aRussian]

Clawin' back!
I like it, no fold

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Whoopie

 

[Jaxs]

One at a time. Ataboy Artie.

 

[Zarathustra]

Anisimov! Next goal is huge.

 

[db2011]

Nice!

I've been liking that line, was going to remark on AA being with them youngins

 

[SnygGo]

That line has been playing good all period. Nice to see them get rewarded

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Anisimov, my man!

 

[db2011]

Whoopie

don't make me ignore you, CBJBrassard

 

[Zarathustra]

How big would a goal on that PP would've been now? Derp.
