in November

Saad with 2 in a 4-3 win over the Blackhawks.

I think we'll win Friday. Almost an entire week to prepare and refine the team's structure.

Also, I think this is the year the Blackhawks take a step back. Not a big fan of their depth outside of their top-6.

Kings

I could see it, although Chicago playing in our arena is practically a home game for them.

(Kidding... partly).

 

[NotWendell]

It's Friday night. The team is starting to come together and a nearly full week of practice will do them good.

 

[niflheim]

We must win but I feel that CHI 5 line ( aka referees) makes win for Hawks anyway we must try

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Ugh. I wish this wasn't a legit thing but sadly, with the CBJ, it really is.

 

[Dr. Fire]

Other then the home game against the Preds, Hawks haven't been playing that well yet.

I think we rise up and punk them again.

 

[Jackets16]

Who knows. We are so bad. We have one game changer (and he is a rookie defenseman), a couple decent players, and a bunch of okay to bad players.

 

[MAHJ71]

Chose this Friday against the Hawks.. because I'd like to think we play them fairly tough at home. Week off, should have fresh legs, solid game plan. (keyword: should)

Thought about selling my tickets.. but gotta support the team

 

[punk_o_holic]

Ugly losses against the Hawks and Stars(maybe one of them goes to overtime) will have them pissed and they take their anger out on the Kings.

 

[We Want Ten]

Gotta be the Kings IMO.

 

[blahblah]

lol, over 20% of the people think we'll start worse than last season. We are such an optimistic bunch.

That schedule is so brutal though.... I felt before start of the season that the home opener against Boston may be best chance at a win prior to Montreal. Torts is 0-5 this Fall if you throw in the World Cup games. I could see Forsberg called up for home Dallas game if Bob gets beat up on the West trip, if so, maybe Forsberg steals a game for us.

LOL, this is an "only the CBJ" thread right here. And for the record, I have no idea.

Brutal or no, if you are in the NHL you should win a few of them.

Brutal or no, if you are in the NHL you should win a few of them.

True this but the operative word is should.. Its a crap shoot to predict when as there are no sure wins although LA appears to be struggling a bit. Get a few bad breaks and the record could be 0-16. That's how brutal the opening stretch is imo.

 

[Speedy Sanderson]

I chose the Kings - with no Quick in goal the Jackets may have a chance. The Hawks are going to score about 7 or 8 goals on Friday and the Stars are too good.

 

[Bobcat110]

Brutal or no, if you are in the NHL you should win a few of them.

Looks like 55% of the voters believe a win is coming within the next 3 games.

Maybe this thread will act as a "reverse jinx" and the CBJ go on crazy win/point streak.


I seriously hope for minimally 6 or 7 points through the Montreal game, but don't see it happening...it sucks so bad having the season over before Thanksgiving. It can't help players improve if they know 5 months before the season is over that the season is already flushed.

 

[Dk Math]

Defence is a problem

Canadians or maybe they can beat Anaheim.

 

[BluejacketNut]

I went with LA since Quick is injured.

So what you're saying is that the stretch is so brutal in your opinion that we're not capable of winning a game for 20% of our schedule?

Come on folks, geez.. lol

You know, they can actually win any of the games listed.
