damn.

 

[blahblah]

Great game decided by the dumbest creation in pro-sports. Win/Lose, the shoot-out is idiotic (and we're 4-2 in them).

 

[Robert]

Crap..... when Joey missed it was close to being over.... We should have beaten them tonight but one point is ok....

We will get them in the Cup...

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Atkinson??? Lol wtf. Just embarrassing.

 

[Jyrki]

good effort tonight, stalock kept us from getting the extra point. but really, the boys can't half-ass for even a moment against a team like the Sharks. a bit better on the backcheck and it might've been a ROW.

 

[Columbus Jack]

Wow...nice decision Richards

Get Cam back in the press box ASAP

You would be singing his praises if he scored.

 

[GoJackets1]

bad break for Cam

Wow I feel bad for Cam. Nerves got to him trying to impress Richards I feel like. He was mishandling the puck all game.

 

[FANonymous]

Atkinson showing he has nothing to prove in the shootout.

 

[Zarathustra]

Testy & Joey will score. Book it.

This is what happens when you say "book it."

 

[major major]

Hurt his confidence by benching a guy for the first time in his life and then put him out on the shootout right away? He was clearly nervous.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Have to pot at least one of the shootout attempts. Cam gripping hard right there. Letestu and Joey like they had no book on this guy, which might be the case. Too bad.

Is the collapse complete now?

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Credit to the Sharks, great entertaining game.

 

[MFRONE]

Glad to get aleast a point but Bob can't be average down the stretch and Horton needs to show up at some point.

 

[Jughead]

I'll never understand wanting to shoot first in a shootout.

 

[Robert]

Wow I feel bad for Cam. Nerves got to him trying to impress Richards I feel like. He was mishandling the puck all game.

Yeah, Richards took a chance putting Cam out there and lost; I would have put Horton out there as the anchor man..

 

[MFRONE]

Same

bugger. but a good showing against a team that lit Toronto up a couple days ago.

 

[major major]

Atkinson belongs on the ice for this team, he's better than this. No way do I put Frattin out there instead of him.

 

[EspenK]

disappointing loss but still one point out of the three minimum,I thought we needed against the 5 toughies we had down the stretch.

And I agree with blah- shootouts suck and are a terrible way to decide a game. Make it a 10 minute OT and go back to ties if no one wins.

 

[MFRONE]

We need Minnesota to win in regulation badly

We've lit up Toronto a few times this season, that's not a good measuring stick

I'd love a 3 on 3 after the 4 on 4, but the rules committee just met and the GM's definitely do not want to extend OT in any form. Must be TV or something.

 

[Robert]

In retrospect the CBJ looked pretty good considering their top two defenseman are out... I saw some resilience tonight...

The Sharks are good folks, but so are we.... we'll get them the next time, those SOB's..

Considering the standings, it's not a bad measuring stick, but your point is legit. Still, the Sharks were pouring them in the other night, nice to see that scoring clip held down by the Jackets

They play 82 games, it's just not feasible. I like the shoutout for what it is and the ROW helps soften its impact.
