GDT: Game 44: Ottawa at Columbus - Help a computer-less brother edition

[Columbus Jack]

Well that was our worst first period at home

 

[MFRONE]

That last minute was a disaster. Wennberg with a horrific TO in the offensive zone (passed up a clear lane right to the goal) nearly led to a goal and then Gagner made a bad pass back into the defensive zone that could have resulted in another goal if not for Jones making a good clearance.

Murray: "You take Turris."
Prout: "Huh?"
*goal scored*
Prout: "Oh."

Yup. You could see Murray point to him. Harrington was good on Tuesday, Prout playing is weird. He's not good.

 

[JohnnyJacket13]

I wonder if we can get away with Harrington putting on Prout's uniform and playing the rest of the game...

 

[Bobcat110]

Well that was our worst first period at home

Since rangers 3rd period?

 

[Robert]

Ok, we need this game to inch back to .500 since the streak....

Can even see why in the replays - our folks were going off for a line change so there were plenty of pass options for Turris on that side of the ice, so Murray was moving to cover that. All Prout had to do was take away the "just take a shot" option.

Oops.

 

[Robert]

Darn, the Labatt Bear's in the Arena.... I love that guy!!!

 

[Miggus]

Suck it Phaneuf.

 

[MFRONE]

Nice call by the refs. Hartnell got cross checked twice and they don't call the penalty until after the stick is slashed out of his hands

 

[MFRONE]

Why didn't Savard shoot that puck?

 

[MFRONE]

The Jackets effort is non existent tonight.

The Murray/Prout pairing is a nightmare

 

[Byrral]

Wow what is going on. I know Ottawa is a good team but we can't get anything going.

 

[Jaxs]

Why didn't Savard shoot that puck?

You'd think the high slot is a pretty good place to shoot from. He passed it and the puck went the other way. Seems to be happening a lot lately.

 

[Miggus]

I was just about to write how in my opinion Werenski has been really nonchalant lately and his minutes should be cut in favor of Murray for some time... but then Murray goes and does that.

 

[MFRONE]

It would be great if the 1st line bothered to show up in 5-on-5 play at some point this month

 

[Robert]

For two weeks, a step slow, a stick short and a glove save missed....

The Jackets must focus and play with more confidence....

The playoffs are coming, we must get more consistent....

 

[JacketsFanWest]

Jackets need a guy who can win a FO badly

Sedlak has won 75% of his faceoffs so far tonight.

 

[MFRONE]

The line changes are really leaving a lot to be desired tonight

 

[MFRONE]

So many drop passes, toe drags and spins by the Jackets. Just take the damn puck to the net and shoot it.

 

[Columbus Jack]

Oh look this Condon guy is playing pretty well, guess we should just call it a day

 

[Robert]

Sedlak has won 75% of his faceoffs so far tonight.

Team: 53% Ottawa, 47% CBJ

 

[Byrral]

Seems a long time since we played fast, with a sense of urgency and could actually make a pass.

Agree, the last games vs NYR and Pitt we seemed to get blown away on 3x2 breaks all night long.... Those teams have and use their speed, we had that too during the streak but it's disappeared...

 

[MFRONE]

Jackets just playing with fire
