[Double-Shift Lasse]

This is a critical game for the Jackets.

 

[EspenK]

What is a game day thread?

 

[jackets4life]

So nice to see a GDT posted once again. Go Jackets! Let's start things back off with a bang.

 

[Fro]

need to get off to a fast start....

What the hell is a Blue Jacket?

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

What the hell's a Blue Jacket?

Calling Kallio....

 

[cbjfaninmo]

Great to have the Jackets back in action. Gabby gets a hatty and then is promptly traded by GMJK after the game.

 

[Inglewood JACKets]

Let's go jackets. I can finally say that and be right.

Was I the only one watching team USA saying "Let's jackets ....er US." out of shear habit?

 

[The Jones Zone]

I think the Jackets have 24 games left...in only 48 days

Lots of action and it starts tonight, I can't wait. It seems like it's been 2 months since they played...let's get it on!!!!!

 

[aRussian]

Hopefully the tires are already spinning from high-paced practices. Wanna get off to a fast start!

 

[GoJackets1]

Let's see if Gabby can make it a whole game...

 

[Nordique]

I expect NJ will be highly motivated, coming back from the break, at home, playing a team just 2 pts ahead of them in the standings. Its going to take hard work to win this one tonight. #bigboypants

The better question is what is a Weyapiersenwah?

I was saying "Pleeeeeeaase, SOMEBODY score. Anybody! I don't care which team, just do it this is so BOOORRING!"

Or something to that effect.

Let's see if Gabby can make it a whole game...

Baby steps... How about 2 or 3 shifts?

And we're back from the break. Let's to it. Other than the Hawks, and to a lesser extent SJ, most of the teams we are facing over the next two or three weeks aren't elite. A lot of good teams to be sure, but no reason we can't go on a run.

Let's start that tonight.

 

[Wendy Clear]

4-point type of game. Winning doesn't just net us 2, it prevents them from 2. Every point is gonna count down the home stretch. Hopefully they get it done in regulation.

Lots of other rooting interest tonight. I was gonna list them and then realized there are too many. Hopefully no OT in some of the games like Red Wings-Senators.

 

[Dr. Fire]

Can someone else be disappointed at the end of the season? Please, hockey Gods?

Let's get this rolling, boys!

 

[IBleedUnionBlue]

Kinda outta the CBJ groove after a month layoff. Not really feeling the anticipation of tonights game yet. However, the stretch run will be awesome. Go CBJ!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

the boys are back

Same here. Wonder how many of us forgot there was a game tonight?

 

[GoJackets1]

the boys are back

I'm so damn pumped for this game.

 

[Jaxs]

There's a game tonight?

 

[Samkow]

Apparently NJ fans are out of their groove too. That makes some of our crowds look huge.
