Is Bob starting for you guys?

 

[JacketFanInFL]

I'll have it on the iPad while I'm watching the Bucks.

Gotta think they come out stronger than they did last night. Get the legs moving and generate shots - don't get too cute with the puck. Looking for a little more from the defense and Bob as well.

Jackets win 4-2.

Bob McElligott ‏@BobbyMacSports 6m
#Isles coach Jack Capuano says he'll go with the same lineup tonight as last night. That means the #CBJ will face Nabokov.

 

[Fro]

Jeff Rimer ‏@jrimercbj 24s
It will be Goalie Bob for the #CBJ vs the#Islanders in the Jackets first back to backs of the season.

 

[mt-svk]

I hope that we will think more than in the first game, less mistakes. In that case we win

 

[Samkow]

The Jackets are 9-1-1-1 against the Islanders, lifetime. Even if this edition is the Same Old Jackets, they should win tonight.

 

[major major]

I'm not terribly confident about tonight. We should be better, but the Isles are not pushovers. Grabner made a few beauty plays last night, easily flying past players of average speed. I don't want Wiz on the ice against him.

Problem is I'm not sure these are the same old Isles. Hope you're right.

 

[Aspie with attitude]

Pumped up for tonight's game.

 

[Mayor Bee]

11:04 AM to start the GDT? Looks like some posters are as uninspired as they're accusing certain players of being last night.

 

[Sore Loser]

Should be Wisniewski sitting ... not Savard.

The Isles are a better team than in years' past, just like the Jackets. This should be a battle for two points by two very determined teams. Expect some chippy play as they get used to each other and becoming new divisional foes.

I won't predict an outcome, simply because it always seems to jinx the Jackets.

 

[Aspie with attitude]

I order us some food for tonight's game.

 

[Jaxs]

^Save me some Aspie!

You got it. One thing we Floridians have that ya don't: Publix Supermarket.

You got it. One thing we Floridians have that ya don't: Publix Supermarket.

Things we have that Floridians don't:
- Ohio natives under age 70

Your move.

Your move.

Florida: Beautiful weather in winter
Ohio: Ice storm in winter
I do miss Columbus, Ohio especially the zoo (got to meet Jack Hanna and his wife during wildlights).

 

[FANonymous]

Oh yeah? Well here in Texas there's... uh... dirt?

AND CACTI!!

Top left with thick blu cheese and replace the carrots with celery and most are good to go....

lol.... but the tan those 70 year olds in Florida have are second to none...

mmmmmm Publix subs....

 

[Fro]

I agree with Mt-from the other thread...go with Letestu - Dubi - Gaby as top line...and stick Arty b/t Cam/Calvert...Arty showed he's ready last night

 

[Robert]

The CBJ should win but first and foremost I want to see our supposed strength, the defense, get their act together... Can't win many games giving up four goals...

Murray played ok last night for the first NHL game of his career.... having Wiz as a partner did not help.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Go Us

 

[thebus2288*]

If were mixing up guys to see what works then go all out.

Cam-Dubi-Gabby
Johan-AA-Calvert
Umby-Jenner-Letestu
Comeau-Mac-Foligno

Go back to at least a true top line. I'm to the point where if Dubi's with Gaborik I wanna see our other 2 big centers together on a line. Together on the PP last night right? I think the way Jenner plays he's actually better for the center spot. Think he's better suited for that "shutdown" role than Johan is also.

JJ-Murray
Prout-Nikitin
Erixon-Savard/Wiz

If Wiz continues with anything close to last night he'll quickly become the new Umberger for me. HE'S OUR HIGHEST PAID D MAN. I actually liked Savard last night.

I just have this feeling that we light Nabokov up tonight.
