[Mayor Bee]

Congratulations are also in order for Todd Richards on his first playoff win as a head coach.

Dubinsky outplayed Crosby by a pretty wide margin, IMO.

 

[NotWendell]

I need a .gif of just the celebration and Cam tackling Matty

I think it's hilarious to see Bob skating up as if to say "Hey! Whaddabout me?!? I need a hug too!"

Everybody expects Foligno to handle that. Oops.

The Jackets (We) led the newscast as Breaking News on both 4 and 10. The bandwagon is starting to get a little cramped, but keep it coming. I can't wait till Monday.

Pens fan coming in peace. Great game boys. He'll of a series so far. I apologize for some of our fans I think Columbus showed a lot of heart and it's gonna be an awesome series. See ya in columbus

 

[db2011]

Oh, one other point, Dubinsky had no points and was -2 but that minus two was from the first period....

Dubinsky was a beast in the 2nd and 3rd period tonight... a beast.

Duby was huge tonight, very very impactful player

Thanks for the class. As you know (and alluded to), it's rare with your fan base.

What a great game. I missed the winner because my DVR time ran out, but I've seen the replays and I couldn't be more proud of the guys for the effort they put forth. We've not only showed that we deserve to be here, but we might even be able to play ahead of the Penguins for long stretches of time.

Go Jackets! Enjoy the game Monday, wish I could be there!

Duby didn't get a point on the GWG?

He did.

 

[Robert]

Well... the Blue Jackets have earned home ice advantage... Is all they need to do now is win two at home and the odds are the CBJ will advance!!!

Nerves will be an issue but if the CBJ believe in themselves and especially their dedicated fans they won't be nervous, they will win!!!

I’ll be out of country for a week, get it done Blue Jackets…. make me proud. !

 

[hiptanaka]

Congrats on the win. You guys played with much more heart and deserved it more than we did.

Duby was huge tonight, very very impactful player

My error, I did not refresh... he had one assist but -1...

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Complete mirror of last game. Down 3-1, win 4-3

 

[Mayor Bee]

Complete mirror of last game. Down 3-1, win 4-3

In both games, a team on the PK scored a shorty to make it a two-goal lead, followed immediately by a PP goal to cut it to a one-goal game.

Now THAT is weird.

 

[Samkow]

lol @ Letang

lol @ Stempniak

lololol

Yeah. Everyone but Fleury just stood around.

Fleury's had a good series.

 

[CaliBuck]

Yes!!! Well I think my neighbors think I'm crazy. I;m yelling and running around. I even ran out on the front lawn and trip and now my arm hurts. And I couldn't be happier.

Man when you don't have a team in the game you really don't realize just how stressful playoff overtime is.

So awesome. What was weird as I mentioned before in the game thread is that I had this surprising calm throughout the overtimes. I just had confident in how the boys were playing.....or maybe it was the booze.

 

[Columbus Mike]

one more time, just cause I like it.

BTW, after two games we are the better team. Keep playing this way and it's going to be a great next ten days.

 

[joshjoshjosh]

What a night. Can't wait for Monday! See you at Nationwide!

 

[CaliBuck]

Dubinsky was a beast in the 2nd and 3rd period tonight... a beast.

Honestly won't ever forget everything he did in this game. Will stand out to me over time. He was a monster.

The biggest goal to date in the history of the Blue Jackets... and was close to an empty net for Matty too!!!! lol

Great clip, since it was the first playoff winning goal in history it will end up in the Columbus, Ohio Sports Hall of Fame... do they even have that yet?

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Honestly won't ever forget everything he did in this game. Will stand out to me over time. He was a monster.

The announcers were saying he is really building a reputation. He is a warrior.

 

[NotWendell]

Our two (theoretical) co-captains have been absolute beasts so far.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Omg I can't believe it

 

[CaliBuck]

Our two (theoretical) co-captains have been absolute beasts so far.

Love the heart and grit of this team. Couldn't have asked for anything more out of the team tonight. Ok, maybe a better first period....but I'm getting picky

Props to JJ and Dubie for sure though!

 

[joshjoshjosh]

I'm so exhausted I can't imagine how the boys feel. Enjoy Easter Sunday, have a good practice, stay hungry, and come out flying/ready to win on Monday
