I have a feeling this team will make the playoffs still.
Call me crazy
Almost as many times as we've screwed ourselves.
Dubi keeping it real:
@RobMixer: Brandon Dubinsky: "My line and (Johansen's) line, we did nothing. The team relies on us six to be a big part of wins & we weren't there."
Love the optimism...
Some of us should be offended by that statement
Is Johansen going to show up the rest of the season? For a guy who demanded $6 million/season I would think he could score more then 2 goals in his last 20 games
Just a terrible game. Blue Jackets sucked, Canes sucked, and the Refs realllllly sucked. The pre-season description is accurate.

Tied for 22nd in the league in scoring. 22 years old.
Not good enough for you
I honestly think Joey has hit the wall due to lack of conditioning. His big point streaks came when he was fresh and as the season ground on his production has decreased. A lack of conditioning plus a still maturing playing out the season in meaningless games at the end of the year is not exactly the recipe for setting the score sheet on fire.
I expect much more from Joey next year with a full training camp, no offseason distractions , and a fully engaged Joey in a playoff race.
I don't think it's a coincidence that Dano-Hartnell have gotten extremely hot while Johansen has gone extremely cold, it's because he draws all the top defensive matchups. We may see this script completely flip in a few games.
