[Jaxs]

Pre season is here already. Did anything of significance happen over the summer?

 

[Dr. Fire]

You can probably count on one hand how many walk-ups will pay to see this game. STH's that decide to show up will determine the actual butts in the seats.

I will be there for at least 2 periods to check out PLD.

 

[WannabeFinn]

Jenner-PLD-Fligs line oooo

 

[josra33]

Very interested in PLD.

Do you guys think that him centering actual NHL talent means he has a shot at the 9 games?

 

[NotWendell]

Hartsy from Gagner to tie it up at 1-1

Yes he's got a shot. But it's a longshot

 

[Dr. Fire]

Listening to the game while I mow my massive yard.

Sounded like a game of 2 parts. First half of the period was all CBJ. Hartnell scored first. Second half of period was all Blues and they tied it at 1-1.

Kukan seems to be in on a lot of action. Korpi shakey the entire period. Anderson seems to be playing well along with Gagner, and a few others.

Ready for the 2nd period.

A longshot at getting 9 games? I think he has a decent shot at playing 9, with closer to a longshot beyond that.

I was actually going to attend (not an STH) but any longer trips are on hold until Indians playoff tickets go on sale tomorrow (not sure how much they will cost).

At this point, I will probably wait for the opener even if playoff ticket prices are what I expect. Penguin fans have secondary market prices for next Sunday's game in the stratosphere (for a preseason game) and I'd rather put that kind of money towards opener tickets. The other two games are not an option as I can't justify traveling to Columbus on a weeknight for an exhibition.

If he ends up taking the job and the compromise Dubois will take with it, will it compromise Dubois? The real question is do the old qualities of service, sacrifice and comradery still prevail? If they do, then fine, if they don't...

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

My prediction based on what I've seen and heard thus far.

They start the season with the plan to send Dubois to juniors after nine games.

He impresses enough that he sticks with the CBJ.

 

[CBJx614]

Hartnell and Gagner seem to have some real chemistry..

 

[SavesEmNot]

The Hartnell-Gagner-Atkinson line is rockin' today. They have all three Jackets goals.

 

[Tulipunaruusu*]

Hartnell and Gagner seem to have some real chemistry..

Need to shoot the puck more.

 

[SavesEmNot]

Well, that escalated quickly.

6-3 Blues.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Not a good 3rd period.

Brodeur in net.

I feel old.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

7 GA? Jesus. Doesn't look like Korpisalo is off to a good start.

Agreed.. just a weird gut feeling he sticks for the entire season. Whether thats a good thing or not? We shall see.

 

[Dr. Fire]

Korpi didn't do himself any favors today. The CBJ were pretty much absent the third period.

I wonder if Torts brutal skates had anything to do with that? Hey if losing a few pre-season games due to fatigue means they will be in great shape for the regular season, screw it, lose em all.

Hartnell / Gagner were the bright spots for the CBJ today. Other then that no one else sounded real impressive.

 

[Jackets16]

7 GA? Jesus. Doesn't look like Korpisalo is off to a good start.

1 - He wasn't in for all of the goals (just 6 of them ).

2 - Who cares. It is a preseason game and almost all of our good defensemen aren't playing right now.

Wins and losses don't matter in the preseason. All that matters is getting in shape and getting chemistry with who you are playing as we get closer to the regular season.

 

[josra33]

Split squad games are meant to favor the home team. Just the way the lines are adjusted. Colorado - Anaheim split squad games from the past usually meant that the Avs sent their C Squad to the Anaheim and Anaheim sent their C Squad to Colorado. For some reason though, those teams seem to lose their home games.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Did McElligott and Shelley call the St. Louis game off of a monitor or did the team flight get back quickly enough for them to call both games in person?

 

[Emerz]

Is the 7PM game streamed anywhere?
