TSN: Columbus Blue Jackets sign Johnny Gaudreau, 7 years 9.75 AAV

[Jovavic]

Will be interesting to see how he does against a different slate of goalies since he switched conferences. I'm hoping he's the first Jacket to get 100 points in a season (followed closely by Laine, maybe even in the same game lol)

against EC teams: 1.34 ppg
against WC teams: 1.44 ppg

points per game splits career:

against EC teams: 1.09 ppg
against WC teams: 0.98 ppg

If this was baseball, we'd probably be Kansas City but I'd certainly hope we weren't Cincinnati and owned by Bob Castellini.

Well, this isn't a Kansas City kind of acquisition.

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Well, this isn't a Kansas City kind of acquisition.

And we may never see another one like it again unless we win a cup or 2.

Well then, there's only one thing to do!

Alrighty hockey strategists, I seek hockey-education. Does signing Gaudreau change or influence the type of on-ice scheme Larsen runs while coaching the team?

No. We were already trying to rush all the time and now we added someone who is actually good at it.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Gaudreau and Laine already have proven chemistry. Get used to watching this:



He put that right on Laine's stick, who made no mistake.

Flyer rink?

Flames pants?

Joke of a franchise.

 

[DougKnowsBest]

Was Johnny supposed to guy buy himself a pair of neutral pants? Like laine using barkovs warm up. next year the equipment guys need to send out a off-season package. Why didn’t Johnny get a pair of our new blue pants?

Lord knows what jerseys are in kj’s bag! The equipment guys need to step it up

3-way deal in the works -

To Flames: Gaudreau
To Philadelphia: Blue Jackets Franchise
To Columbus: Rasmus Ristolainen

Not sure what Flames are giving up and to whom, but I don't really care

Who calls the shots, Jarmo or JD??

Stop it already, mistakes happen. These are the people who have worked tirelessly all summer to figure out KJ's new jersey number so cut them some slack ffs.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

This is not the patrik Laine thread. We have one of those. Go there to continue this discussion, which frankly,the exact same conversation is actually already ongoing.

 

[AirSox]

Lol look who's still salty.

 

[wabagee]

Lol look who's still salty.

I don’t get it, Am I missing something?
Is he trying to look like a bitter ex?

 

[DJA]

Flames fans are really in their feelings from overpaying for Kadri
