looking forward to seeing Chaput's NHL and Birthday debut....

CBJ always tend to play the Sharks hard, so hoping this game does indeed get their mojo back. Great song!

I'll be there tonight. Still have a single ticket for sale: Attack twice corner, 6 rows off the glass. $50 and price is negotiable.

 

[Skraut]

Yeah baby, Yeah!

 

[Nordique]

Come at them hard, every shift, and they tend to buckle. Let's try to stay out of the penalty box this game.

 

[DJA]

I'll be there with my 4-year-old daughter, and it'll be her first CBJ game. Hoping she lets me make it through at least the first 2 periods.

Awesome, DJ. Speaking from experience, that's a fun and memorable thing. Enjoy!

Thank you, sir! Looking forward to it.

I have lots of fun memories of taking my kids to the games; I had to give up the season tickets so that I could follow them in their activities and at the same time set aside some money for their college expenses (I'll have two kids in college as of this fall).

Have a fun time tonight and I hope your daughter does as well.

Awesome, should be a great time. Dads wanting to make it though the third period of live hockey games is why they invented smartphone game apps... :p

Again speaking from experience, in an era when there were no smart phone apps, smart phones and cell phones were rare, french fries also do the trick. (Of course, my daughter was 18 months when she attended her first Chill game.)

 

[DJA]

Thanks, fellas. I'll definitely have Netflix ready to be fired up and an armload of unhealthy snacks and stuff from the Blue Line in tow. (I have a lot of trouble saying no.)

Here's to hoping she's the missing link to getting the believe train back on track for the last 9 games.

From Rob Mixer:
Johansen is in the lineup. Chaput a healthy scratch. Prout is a game time decision, Erixon is cleared to play but not definitely in.

I'm very hopeful for Chaput's career. He had 14 pts in 13 games when he got more ice time after our AHL guys got called up, but has since stalled out. Not bad for a kid just turning 21. Maybe he has middle-six center in him someday?

Thanks for the update. Got the OP stuff from the Big D. Should we assume this means Letestu with the mighty mites and Johansen with RJ and Nicky?

 

[Nordique]

Win a couple in a row and the whole board will be talking playoffs again.

Yes, but we might be due for a lineup rejiggering.

More like 5 in a row, unless Detroit drops their next two. But point taken.

 

[Dr. Fire]

The start of our 9 game winning streak.

If I am going to be optimistic, I am going all the way.

8 game winning streak? Now that'd be nice! Nothing better than an 7 game winning streak, those 6 straight games really helping in the playoff push. Boy who woulda thought we'd end the season on a 5 game winning streak...

 

[Samkow]

Chaput has already been sent down.

The team's constant recalls are a bit strange to be honest. Why not just keep an extra guy up here?

At least let him take a shift or 2 from Gilles.....poor kid.

 

[mt-svk]

Hmmm, we need win and I can believe that we will win, the team is no loser anymore.

 

[jacketman10]

First game for me in three years. They better win this one. Also, best seats I will have been in.
